Right, so I frequent Secondlife. I guess that makes me a loser or something or rather, but really. I can make and be anything. Thats SORTA like Gaia, but rather than LOOK like Rorschach, I can BE Rorschach, right down to every little detail possible. From shifting mask, to the exact textures ripped form the movie. Okay, so anyways, there's this girl I know. She's kinda emo. Well, very emo. And a gold digger of the highest degree. Lets put it this way, children, She had a boyfriend on there, and he promised her 10k L$ (Thats around $50 USD or so.) So anyways, he promised her this money, and then he realized he was overdrawn on his credit card (Cause he had already spend a load of money on her, anyways) and the bank wouldnt allow him to withdraw or even spend anymore. So do you know what she does? After he spent what I'm guessing is hundreds of dollars on her, she leaves him cause she realizes his wallet isnt bottomless. So do you know what he does? He reports her for Fraud, Extortion, and the like. SL is a business. Fraud and Extortion pretty much always get you the banhammer. And LL (Thats Linden Labs, the people who control SL) saw that, yes, what she did was extortion and fraud. So she got her a** banned and lost everything. So now she's double emo. Thats not half of it, though. Her parents are on SL, too... Alright, so I'm not saying that like... 50 year old people shouldnt be on SL or anything, but they have completly ******** their own lives, and hers over royaly. Here's the deal. Her parents go on SL. They give her a weekly allouance of 2k L$ (Thats about $10) for her to spend. When she's bad in school, or RL, or even SL, they ground her on SL. Not OFF of SL. On SL. As in she's forced to stay in one area, or not see her friends, or she gets something taken away. Her regular life is FINE. She could go out and buy $100 worth of games and Candy and her parents wouldnt care. No, she's grounded on SL. And the sad thing is, she gets upset over it. If I was grounded on SL, I wouldnt care. Oh now, a Week without going to my favorite club. Maybe Ill go to a REAL club. Oh no, I cant talk to my teenbopper SL friends. Maybe Ill go out and talk to my Non-Teenbopper REAL friends.
She's sucking in school, she's planning on taking SL classes... And her life is generally ******** cause her mom and dad, and her entire imediate family is sucked into an Online Community game. Depressing, no? Actually, I find it morbidly hilarious. Like when a giant evil robot rips a man in half, and candy flies out of him. Sure, he's dead, but it's CANDY!
So she has no job, and from what I can tell, her parents are also faultering in their job. Like... They're spending more money on SL than they're making in RL. Digital Food doesnt feed you! Here's a conversation Piece. I've blocked out the names for safety reasons.
[11:46] (A): i hate sl
[11:46] (A): and the people in et
[11:46] (A): surprised
[11:47] (B): x.x
[11:47] (A): im pretty much tired of everyone having someone and me have no one
[11:47] (A): you shouldve said you were with (C)
[11:48] (B): I thought you'd like... Assume x.x
[11:49] (A): no i dun't like people tping me to were there cuddling there bf's or gf's
[11:49] (A): it makes me angry
[11:49] (B): You ASKED for the TP
[11:49] (A): becaus ei know no one doesn't ever wanna dew me like that
[11:49] (A): you shouldve told me
[11:50] (A): i am ahving issues wif poeple having partners while i sit alone by msyelf and watch..it hurts okay? i know no one loves me
[11:50] (B): YOU ASKED FOR THE TP Not my fault! ~_~
[11:50] (A): i get it but i dun't like to be shwoed of too
Ta-da. To explain it clearly, She asked for a Teleport, so I TPed her in, and she got upset, cause... I dont know... So she blames me for everything, even though she ASKED for the damn TP, and I TOLD her I was in Lusk (Thats a place in SL) and she was like "Ya, thats fine."
She's fine sometimes, but she keeps talking about money, or me lending her money, or how much money she lost from the ban, or how she needs more, or how such and such a thing costed her THIS MUCH to get.
Oh, and to clarify some other things, no one needs 10k L$. The most expensive thing Ive seen on there is 4K, and that was a god damn house. And not a cheezy house, either. It's like what bloody well the king of england would live in.
