SECOND LIFE (www.secondlife.com)

[batdog]

Does anyone on this forum have "some" experience in "secondlife" ?

Has anyone made any money out of it yet.

Fascinating game that is sweeping the world and the "big boys" are slowly moving in...

Any suggestions appreciated

Thanks

EDKiwi'a tip: stay away unless you're a loser with no 1ST life...

Is this where Batdog is justifiably offended, and then where Quaywe raises his hands and says 'what me, I didn't say nuffin'??

Don't mind Ed - he suffers from a terrible and debilitating condition called 'NO IMAGINATION'

I can't stop laughing...

TheKiwi thinks that the internet has two purposes only:

a) Filling forums with (generally) misguided waffle

b) Ordering the occasional book from Amazon (Tom Clancy, or similar, I expect)

And judging by his previous.. (and totally bizarre).. "stay away from MySpace.. it's full of paedophiles" outburst, it's no wonder something like secondlife wouldn't appeal. Perhaps it, too, is FULL OF PAEDOPHILES.

Please look over here The EDKiwi Soapbox where our antipodean friend has his very own place of worship / abuse. That's the place to judge him and discuss his purpose in life.

thanks

I have had a quick look at the demo, in the same way that I decided to go to the millennium dome in order to be able to slag that off too.

It's desperately dull with some of the clunkiest graphics and interface I've ever seen. I've briefly *ahem* been sucked into the likes of eve and world of warcraft, and whereas I understand that these too are desperately geeky, there is at least some sort of purpose, and and enjoyment in them.

Why would anyone 'play' second life. If you want to set up a shop then do it down your high st, you might actually make some money, and your customers won't be strange avatars from the wrong side of the uncanny valley

Thanks for all this "constructive" comments, my original question is " has anyone any experience on secondlife" ? I NEVER said I played, my interest is sparked by the fact that someone has made serious money on it and large companies are moving in buying lands to advertise their products... I am not intersted in playing secondlife as I am too busy with my first and ONLY life... to me secondlife could be a potential source of money... That is why I am still interested in "being illuminated" by a secondlife expert.....

Thanks again
