From the Hunger, by Tony Scott (1983)

I never thought I would read a "happy Imbolc" here ! It is the less documented Celtic festival. In my country (France) some people says the festival of Candelmas is a christian version of both the latin festival of Lupercalia and the celtic Imbolc. Happy Imbolc !!!

R.I.P Lemmy ... I thought he was immortal and indestructible. I have never been a metal enthusiast but always loved Motörhead.

Same problem here since Saturday evening when I logged off because of an annoying bug in the dressing room. Impossible to log in, just stuck on the loading screen. I tried to log as administrator, reset my password, even re-installed the game....twice. I send a message to the support center, I hope they can fix it today.

I see your points Riela and I am truly sorry you witnessed such disgusting behaviour against your friends. But is it me or your post sounds a little aggressive ? (english is not my native I can be mistaken). My concern is that people here presents this topic as if such bad behaviours are a common thing, that's why i was wondering why i did not met such problems for now. I will be sorry if witch hunts were done in this game against innocent rpers just because they have Alts. Nevertheless you are proposing something that could be considered as a compromise, that could allow the lambs to be protected from the wolves, and rpers to have specific places to play. I could support that. What I had in mind was a specific and descriptive warning note send to each people who subscribe, with extensive details of what they could meet in game and warning them to act with caution before giving IRL details or whatever. Should it be not enough ? A warning is not a protection per se but it could be useful. Just my two cents in a constructive way.

I follow this topic fom the start, I voted (no) then was asking myself because of some arguments, but finally I will stick to my "no". It seems that some of you want to make 3DX safer than the real world...preventing people from cheating their partners or whatever. Is it my french mind or there is a bit of puritanism in some of these arguments ? I share the fear of witch hunting explained by Elenn, and she made good points. I am one on these new player everybody wants to protect from deception . Thanks for thinking about us, but I did not ask for it. And far more important, for the near two months i have been here, I never met any problem to share conversations with anybody. Noboby seemed to think I was a deceitul alt and not a new player. I have met wonderful people here and I enjoy a lot coming in the 3DX world. Obviously there are two kind of community here, those witch you describe as "the players" and the "social people". But all the dramas I have seen around are not from the "players" but from some of the "social people" who act here like if they are on facebook, spying on friends, "cheating" or whatever. As far as I know the "players" are stuck in the users sex rooms where they can find what they want. Please, dont think every new player is an easy target for mind games, or need protection from sick perverts who wants to deceive them. We are all adults here.

This is a sad thing to read... I voted "No" because each time a community want to increase safety it is as the cost of freedom, and I believe strenghten oneself is better that restrain freedom. But reading Riela's post makes me think again about it, and now I wonder if I should delete my vote...
