My primary advice would be: Be patient, don't try to do everything at once.
Absolutely
I actually wouldn't suggest people buy major items for their avatar like a head and body right away. What I often find is that people will be in a hurry to buy something without understanding what they want or the different products available, and end up wasting money because they were in a rush to get hot. Do some research, do a LOT of demoing. Demo everything and get a look you like before you buy anything. THEN go and buy just those items you ended up using for your final look. I can't tell you how many times I have seen a new person complain because they bought an expensive item like a head or body, which they probably didn't demo or didn't play around with enough to be sure they liked it, only to realize it wasn't what they wanted and now they have to buy another one.
I love sl since 2010 full time. you have very nice & informative channel I subscribe.
Awesome! Thank you!
I think this is your most interesting video yet.
Love second life and want it to be forever. I advice people to also join the mentorship program
It's also a canvas for creativity. Amazing world 😊
what mentorship program
@@cutieworldwideee it’s a program for sl residents who are very knowledgeable in sl and the viewer to offer help and welcome
New residents
There' some great tips as that gentleman said: treat each other with respect we're real people behind these avatars and it's something people fail to remember at times. My advice would be; Go slow you dont need to lean everything in 1 day or your gonna over whelm yourself. Learn your UI and all the basic things first movements and teleporting and if your not too shy talk to people they will offer you tips on how to move forward. Someone else said go top tier straight away, i agree, don't waste money on bodies and heads that aren't being created for. Another tip is shop on weekend sales and 50L fridays to start you off you'll find plenty of things to update your avatar and save money in the process. Hope this helps anyone starting their Second Life journey. And don't forget have fun! that's what it's all about. :)
Great video! And I saw you went to a Grace Loudon show ( recognized her piano and tipboard in this video). She's amazing isn't she?
The thing the guy talks about with the girl under the bridge haha! I have done the same! Well I knew people could see me but I went under the water to change before I had my own home to do so and was hoping people would not cam in on me xD
Yes, she is amazing.
I met my husband on SL.
Omg! That's amazing!

It’s a must-watch for anyone interested in the potential and beauty of virtual worlds and online communities.
SL is better, is like real life, avatars look like real, SL is better ! 👍👍✌✌👽👽
The story of the girl under the bridge didn't go how I expected to, nor did I expect it to end up being that relatable! Once you get used to it, it's fine, but the inventory system is quite a wall for new people! I hope she wasn't TOO embarrassed!
I'm not new to SL, but I have been peeking back at it every once in a while. I used to roleplay all over the place on the internet, but I don't have the energy to do it anymore. If I were to return to SL, it would be helpful to know of some good places to go to that are friendly to avatars of all types and newcomers. I'm thinking similar to world features that people make for VRC or Resonite, but with a focus on where the people are. I spent a lot of money on an avatar back in the day, but outside of the pandora roleplays i was in back in the day, i stick out like a sore thumb being super tall and blue haha, it would be good to know of some places that I could go in with "stranger" avatars, because most of what i see nowadays are very human and much like in VR I like to use tech to look and do what I can't in a human body.
I found it amusing that a naked avatar would hide under a bridge, assuming they wouldn't be seen. I suppose I might have done the same, although being naked in Second Life in 2006 is certainly different from being naked in 2024… 🤣
Hey Spin :D There are a bunch of places where you can be who you are =) Usually a bit more fantasy themed places. Biweekly on sunday there are live shows at BeSpoke. BeSpoke is a fantasy mesh head store and you would feel right into place at those events. They are really fun and people come in all different shapes and sizes. Yesterday there was a crocodile and i have seen people come in as a tiny little bird. The owner walks around as a potato in a suit, it's amazing! Give it a try :D Next time it's the 21st of July =) Usually starts at 2pm SLT.
Great video and explains a lot 👍but.....I am not sure why people call Second Life "a game" as a game has the leveling up and things you have to do to get there, but in Second Life you are free to roam around and do what ever you like and to meet other people and be social hence Second Life is a Virtual social world. The only "game" thing about SL is there is games inside this virtual world that you can play. 💯💖😎😀😀
I enjoy using the word "platform" when I talk about SL, but I know many folks relate better to "game." Everyone has their own reasons for joining SL, and for some, it's just a fun "game like the Sims but online." I've stopped trying to debate that Second Life isn't a game quite a while ago.
This video clearly has an agenda lol. I wish there was that many people in second life who are " just being themselves " but there's not . Almost everyone in second life is subconsciously role playing as the person they wish they were , rather than who they actually are . They ARE playing a game and when their negative traits form rl bleed into second life , they re roll and try again as someone else. Then repeat .
Well I am surrounded by a bunch of awesome people, so genuine people in SL do exist.
No doubt there are a lot of awful people in SL. Their ugly personalities show through no matter how pretty the avatar is. Same goes for real life. We all have to weed out the real and the fake. Sadly, that means getting burned sometimes.
