What do people think about this? Is anyone here a member?

Will it one day become like the 'better than life' game in Red Dwarf?

OOps I did a search for second life and that didn't come up. Maybe it was because I use quotes.

Yup.

Not so far. People in SL generally tend to go for acquisitions as in real life -it's a virtual environment and they still buy houses, cars, motorbikes end food... how weird is that?

I tried it for a couple of days. If it was upgraded with better graphics and user friendly it would be phenomenal. It really is like stepping into another world because you are interacting with real people. Pretty cool, easy and safe way to interact with others. Great idea.

Yeah, but some of the interactions... :eek:

I walked in to a night club strip my cloths off and then couldn't put them back on.

I had to ask if anyone knew how I could put them back on.

Its a bit more complex to use than I thought it would be. I think you need a guided tour.

I stopped going on SL about a month back. It got boring after a while. If you do use SL then be sure to visit Numbakulla. That was the highlight of that game. Otherwise it was just a form of three dimensional chat, which got incredibly boring after a while. Not much interesting conversation.

Would it be possible to create a SciForum Island?

I played a few years ago. I made a boat load of dough. I still have an account there.
