Asking to have a hack reinstated, just because it was convenient or had appealing traits, seems very dubious to me. The Rochii dll exploited a weakness in the programming. That is a fact. That the exploit at a large did not have any adverse effects is one of the main reasons that it was tolerated for as long as it was. IF a mechanism were to be implemented that would enable someone to hand over power of their avatar to another would require that the person surrendering power was fully aware of what they were doing. That was the issue with the Rochii Dll. People could partner others who were not aware of the presence of the dll and therefore not aware of the possibility of loosing their right to choose. By clicking accept they expected the normal game mechanics to be in play and not a hack and that IS abuse. So regardless of whether you consider it to be “rape” or “molestation” or "Bad experience" a violation of a person who acted in good faith did occur.

People are playing for fri, for the time being, on the new server so lack of payment should not be any issue.

Oh it wasn't a blame post, but more an informative post.

Lussian I just checked all the public rooms and the music is dropping again..

Agreed but why do I have this dreadful suspicion that you will be the first to done the socks and sandals as a badge of pride? *chuckles*

The big Freeze of 63?

Cee is teh bomb! She told me yesterday about the fix I am glad that her brilliant tip made it to the forums. Even though its one of the more Nerdy Solutions.

Oh please! You guys are just agreeing with her because she is a girl..You guys are such sexists...

Though weddings weren't implemented until June 2015 its still impressive. Congratulations.

Ok I know its not really in line with the topic but I had an experience from the other side. Hooked up with a woman and started to Rp kissing her neck..to which she replied.."Stop wasting my time with that RP shit and fuck me already" Still makes me laugh when I think of it. I did leave her to herself since I thought Bob was a more suitable partner for her than me *laughs* Now its likely that she was a he but I am always reminded of that episode when I hear women bemoan the lack of male attention in those situation.

Ok I am going to throw my two cents into the mix. Yes this is a game and denying that fact is pointless. But people who use this argument seem to stop there and not go any further. The fact the platform that we interact with each other with is a virtual one, does not make the subsequent emotions or reactions virtual too. If there was no small echo of real emotions none of us would be here. It is BECAUSE there are real emotional responses that online games in general are so much fun. Maintaining that this is “just” a game and not admitting that real emotions get into the mix is for me just an excuse to not feel responsible for your actions and keeping an emotional distance to some of the potential hurt that can be inflicted. But getting TO emotionally invested is the issue here. The OP’s (alisonn) point was a heads up to the people who start out in this game and haven’t gotten a feel for the right balance between having fun playing the game and utter heartbreak. It’s a tough and sometimes painful learning curve and not all come out on the other side emotionally intact and that is the true problem. Sadly this problem is not one that either the game nor the community can do anything about. We must accept the sad but ever so true fact that we are responsible for our own mental and emotional health. But we can do like alisonn and say “Hey I have been through it and if you need to talk about it give me a shout and even though right now you feel like shit there is light at the end of the tunnel”

The OP said: "I have been researching this game and many more like for many months now to figure out which one would be worth spending money on." then 3 lines later he said he tried the game for 4 days before posting his verdict. His verdict being "This game is not innovative, nor is it worth the price tag; not would I dare to call it fun." Do I have a problem with someone not liking this game? Not at all. I have friends who I still talk to who don't play because they don't feel it offers them what they were looking for. But the way the OP responded to the comments was going directly to verbal abuse where people's response had been very tempered (for the most part heh). You don't post the things he did here without expecting a response. The thing that seems no one else seems to wonder about is...Why post here in the first place? Why post on a forum in a game you have no plan on playing, He himself said he only met non-welcoming people. Yes I might have been damaged by my profession but I can't find a motive that makes sense. Yet in later posts he comments on which type of people play 3DXCHAT. Claiming to have a deep understanding of the 3DX community. Initially I did not attack him, and my later direct comment to him can be seen as an attack, yes I totally agree. Why did I do it? Because I have little to no trust in the fact that the OP is a true new player to the game. And as far as a troll to this Forum goes, we have a very high standard of trolls here and the OP is just not good enough for that label...

Since I am, according you, a petty person it gives me the liberty to point out your obvious lack of skill or talent in a few areas. The utter pointlessness of posting your opinion of a game you have played for 4 days is ludicrous and shows that you have very poor grasp of the deeper social interaction between people Your attempt at insulting the stature of my person shows that you are unable to read people but rely on things that you would find insulting which in turn shows that you have a unflattering opinion of yourself Last but not least you keep referring your vast social life in RL, this despite the fact that you are actively looking for a game, done, by your own words, extensive research. Yeah the logic of those two statements is very funny. Unfortunately for you I am known not to give a flying monkey's arse what strangers think/believe/assume of me. What DOES tick me off is people trying to pass themselves off as pseudo intellectual with only the brief google understanding of their chosen topic and who then pontificate from some imagined higher ground. So in terms that you will understand...

You been watching Oprah and sniffing fabric softener again havn't you Rob?
