I spent some time there and was shocked at what I saw. You covered most of what I saw in your article, but I must say, some of the people in this "game" (haha! it's a GAME to me) really need a reality check. It makes me think, what if judgement day really came. What would they do? Nothing in that "game" could save you then. I can’t stand second life. I spent some time there and was shocked at what I saw.

And as anything, bad experiences sometimes can enlighten us about things. You wrote a post about something you were probably misinformed, and the reactions, may even have changed your way to look at it. If by any chance you decide to give it a try, or another try if u ever tried it before...i would recomend you a soundtrack to go along with it... Nine Inch Nails-The Perfect Drug. Dang Erin…

I guess now you should have realised SL is far beyond anything you thought about it. One thing seems to have happened. Inadvertently, you followed Benetton's marketing principle: "regardless if they say good or bad things about us, what it matters is that they speak about us". You criticised SL and the number of hits on your blog has exploded! Well done. For Summer... McDonalds? You're lucky Starbucks is infinitely worse But... Don't push your luck... :twisted: Hi Erin.

A little overwhelmed, but that's just because I did not expect that this post would get so much attention! In my mind, I was just writing and having fun, after all. I can certainly understand loving something so much - after all, if you're not passionate about something, what good is it all? I am happy to hear that I may have acquired a whole slew of readers (or even just one!), and although I can't promise to be so controversial in the future, I will try to be at least slightly amusing :) Erin Summer (and all the other SLers),

And piercings as well :D Erin sweetie, hope you didn't get scared with all this - the thing is... we simply love it. And no, it doesn't split us apart from others - on the opposite, as you saw, it gather us together (us meaning different ppl with different interests and from different parts of the world). Now for the good news: I'm sure you won a lot of new readers. I know I came to stay and from now on will be reading you on a regular basis :D Wonderful beautiful imaginative all kinds of tattoos one may want to ! And piercings as well :D

I thought second life referred to the new cell division therapy (started in 2006) being administered in Khoti, Freisland, where they actually create a second you which attends therapy via electrical impulses, and then the new cells are attached to the original cells and through some sort of scientifically proven osmosis, you end up happier than you knew you could be. There's actually a lot of stimulating reading about this on the web. Rumor has it the APA has therapists working in Freisland, hoping to bring this back to America. No kidding, check it out - so far it has cured depression, addiction, mood disorders, and alzheimers (sp?). Guess I was wrong about that though, this other thing or game or societal happening sounds interesting too. I wonder if they have tatoos? Holy canole.

Hi all! I'm the Head of "Academia Portucalis" that Summer referred in her first comment. I just want to tell you that tonight, in our 1st year celebration events, teachers and students, with no line between them, talked about and shared the experience of teaching and/or learning in SL. Ok, nothing special about that! It's usual to speak about that subjects. But... tonight it was special. As an educational sciences researcher I have to tell that our experiences in SL are informing us how to do better in RL, in means of education. This is a boom! :-) Hi erin! Hi all!

You've got to be kidding... Well my dear... We are normal people/friends sharing ideas in a virtual community. People that, in many cases, ended to get knowing at the "real world". And yes, we still being great friends (even more, I shloud say) after it... seems to me that you shouldnt even talk about something you dont know... "this amazingly creepy phenomenon", as you said, enables you to have a lot of experiences, but, above of all, enhances your life. Dont be such a small person... “bizarre little corner of the online universe”???? You’ve got to be kidding…
