The LGH Kingdom of DGAF (Don't Give A Fish)

Elanna Althouse took over Wili Clip's "newspaper" job after I left and I guess Sophina Starchild stuck her fingers into bigger pies... While Elanna wanted to write a piece for Wili on every Linden Gold Hunt kingdom...

Although our kingdom members are all equals, for the game's sake, my husband, Samael, is the "king" of DGAF (Don't Give A Fish).  Oddly enough, he doesn't like SL (and needless to say, he doesn't even fish or hunt anymore for LGH).  I did convince him to get the Deluxe rod on the quest once, and he still has it ...But since one of the many previous LGH server hacks, he has absolutely no desire to pick it back up.  He also thinks "there's no point to SL because there are just about a billion other games that have WAY nicer graphics - that don't tax your computer, don't cost nearly as much money to play, and have WAY less drama and bullshit," LOL!  He's adamant that if I were to ever go play WoW (or practically anything else), I'd be idolized because I'm actually female, LOL!  ...However, I believe he still comes into SL for my sake, as I tenaciously refuse to give up something I'm addicted to, and as a gamer himself, he more than respects that.  He will also pay for things and let me take the credit, he will make potions when we need them (if he can, or he just runs errands and buys them for us), and he will also step in to resolve matters (not just for me, but for the ppl I care about).  ...You could call that leadership or love, depending on your perspective.

...Well, so, anyway... This is the conversation that Samael and Elanna had:

[2023/05/08 09:18]  ਹȱƞ ƇƸяתߎɳŋøϟ (JonCernunnos): Hello

[2023/05/08 09:18]  Elanna Althouse: (busy response): HI :) writing :)   go ahead and send your NC, I'm fine with that, and if you need a NC from me with questions, can I send it to when you are offline? Leave a message. thanks :)   *or I fell asleep lol* 

[2023/05/08 09:18]  ਹȱƞ ƇƸяתߎɳŋøϟ (JonCernunnos): You said you needed kingdom leaders to IM you?

[2023/05/08 09:18]  Elanna Althouse: getting your NC :)

[2023/05/08 09:19]  ਹȱƞ ƇƸяתߎɳŋøϟ (JonCernunnos): Actually

[2023/05/08 09:19]  Elanna Althouse: yes

[2023/05/08 09:19]  ਹȱƞ ƇƸяתߎɳŋøϟ (JonCernunnos): I have an out of the box answer for everything

[2023/05/08 09:19]  Elanna Althouse: ok?

[2023/05/08 09:19]  ਹȱƞ ƇƸяתߎɳŋøϟ (JonCernunnos): Just let them know they can IM me or wife with any/all questions and we'll be happy to answer everything

[2023/05/08 09:20]  Elanna Althouse: ok.

[2023/05/08 09:20]  ਹȱƞ ƇƸяתߎɳŋøϟ (JonCernunnos): Great. Thank you. Have a nice day!

[2023/05/08 09:20]  Elanna Althouse: you too

After some time, Elanna also IMed me:

[2023/05/21 03:26]  Elanna Althouse: Hey sweetie, one-of-the DGAF-kingdom-members (name crossed out name for privacy reasons) said I should send you the questions for the Kingdom article :)

[2023/05/21 03:26]  Second Life: secondlife:///app/agent/b788a7ea-1b27-4395-8ad8-b7144d302623/about has given you this notecard:

[2023/05/21 03:27]  ℳαʝɨҟᐺɨӽڠɳ (MajikVixen Lorefield): We want all readers to IM us with these questions so we can be more personal.  Thank you

[2023/05/21 03:27]  ℳαʝɨҟᐺɨӽڠɳ (MajikVixen Lorefield): You should print that

[2023/05/21 03:27]  Elanna Althouse: ok, that is what your hubby said too.  :)   Eden told me to send it you :)

[2023/05/21 03:28]  Elanna Althouse: ok I will print that :)

[2023/05/21 03:28]  ℳαʝɨҟᐺɨӽڠɳ (MajikVixen Lorefield): Ok, thanks

[2023/05/21 03:30]  Elanna Althouse: Oh and the questions won't be included lol.    I am just going to tell them to im for more questions.  I can't list the questions alone.   :)   have a great day Majik :)

[2023/05/21 03:30]  ℳαʝɨҟᐺɨӽڠɳ (MajikVixen Lorefield): Great, thank you

[2023/05/21 03:30]  Elanna Althouse: yvw :)

[2023/05/21 03:33]  Elanna Althouse: ...btw, I don't have to put the article about your kingdom out on wili's blog at all.   just fyi.   my big articles go on my own blog, and I link from wili's blog.

[2023/05/21 03:34]  Elanna Althouse: if you wanted an article.... but wanted nothing to do with his blog, I can do that too.   just fyi.   :)    have a great day :)

[2023/05/21 03:34]  ℳαʝɨҟᐺɨӽڠɳ (MajikVixen Lorefield): It's fine to put our answer in whatever LGH kingdom blog... Just, that's our answer, lol

[2023/05/21 03:34]  Elanna Althouse: ok :)  just wanted you to know you have an option :)

Now... It wasn't to say that we're not appreciative of being included in an event like this.  It's actually that:

• We want to be a bit more personal with everyone:
• Wouldn't you feel more motivated if you got ALL your questions answered personally, straight from the horse's mouth, rather than getting it from ...a website?
• If we're all on the same page, goals can be achieved much better.  In business and sales, they teach you that a personal approach and relating to the potential customer is way more successful... why the fuck wouldn't it be for a kingdom as well?
• And on an even more personal note ...Although I respect Wili as the creator of my favorite game... I can't say that I agree with him on ALL his decisions.  In fact, based on my personal experience with the matter: fuck his newspapers.  And although I also think I respect Elanna (from the little interaction we've had and the information I've received), I'd much rather have the Google clicks on my blog, TYVM ...I mean, makes sense, right?  Our kingdom, our land (so far, anyway)... and so... my blog.  *shrugs*  ...Oh yeah, and fuck Wili's newspapers!  xD  \m/
• Drawing attention or bragging is unnecessary:
• ...I can't seem to be successful at spraying attention-be-gone all the time, tho.  I mean, I'm not gonna say this shit publicly in SL, but like, you clicked and came here, of your own free will to my territory ...and I always rock the first amendment and piss on discrimination... so... LOL!  You take your own responsibility for wearing Majik-colored glasses and either revel in my personal honesty or just fuck right back off to your fake-ass world of shiny ppl, delusions of control, and unicorns!  xD  \m/  ♥
• It's human nature, unfortunately, to pick on and tear apart successful ppl out of jealousy.  We are a sanctuary so very far away from all that shit.  You only give things power when you acknowledge them.  And if you don't put it in your mind, it doesn't matter.  Instead, focus on and acknowledge the good, and the universe gives you MORE of that.  So why waste your time with negativity?  ...Because you're not intelligent enough to think differently?  Come on, now, that's silly.  I believe in you!  -Anyone who can function in SL is smart and creative!  You deserve to think better and attract the best out of any life!
• Understandably, we're a bit cautious.  I mean, anyone can join any kingdom.  Even undesirables like alt spies or trouble-makers, for example.  We can definitely have them booted, but we wish to keep that bullshit down to a minimum.  

However, to give credit where it is due, I will share with you Elanna's thought-provoking NC:

"I'm on a thrilling quest to write the ultimate series of articles about Kingdoms, and I'd be ecstatic to feature every kingdom! 

"And just a little heads-up: if I don't receive the required goodies from you, I'll simply copy the info from your kingdom's web page and add a teeny-tiny note saying that the kingdom chose to skip the party and not participate in the article.  Thanks, and let's make this an unforgettable article together!

"Elanna"

Followed by her open-ended questions... which I guess I will attempt to very unfairly answer, with the disclaimer that: I actually think you'd get better responses if you did IM one of us:

• How does the Kingdom of DGAF (Don't Give A Fish) embrace its laid-back, carefree philosophy for its members?
• Weighing the triage of real problems versus first world problems.
•  Being grateful.  You need to eat protein and ruffage to live.  You don't need gravy ...But gravy is always nice to have!
• If you aren't nagging ppl all the time and aren't up their ass constantly, they're more willing to open up to you and work with you on common goals.  This is called trust and respect.  And, ye gawds, I think SL could certainly use more of it!
• Encouragement, encouragement, encouragement... Positive thinking... and anything else anyone wants to share with the rest of the class.  We're open to discussion with all ... or not.  We DGAF.  Just be happy and don't stress!

• What inspired you to establish the Kingdom of DGAF, and how has it evolved since its inception?
• Samael saw how unhappy I was in RL, having been used and backstabbed as a long-time co-leader of Queen's new Potheads, and so he thought he'd lead me into another door of opportunity by his "stop giving a fuck" idea of a kingdom.
• Samael got some of his idea from my old bulk potion maker.
• We didn't expect to get any members.  I was okay with being the only active member in the kingdom.  But the old bulk potion maker stepped in to teach us some things.  To my surprise, some also saw how I helped run the reincarnated Potheads and followed me to DGAF ... Just like most of them followed Adena to Nutty Bunch, previously.  Plus, we have picked up random awesomes along this yellow brick road too.
• So far we have done very well.  All of our active members are at the top of every stats list and, to date, we have the largest treasury in all the kingdoms ...So... we must be doing something right.  :p

• Can you discuss the absence of group politics and the unique approach to communication within your kingdom?
• Politics ...If she's a witch, she floats.  If she drowned, she was innocent... Who the fuck needs all that high school popularity prom queen and king + class president, absolute drama bullshit?  Did anyone else pay attention in high school and actually read George Orwell?  ...No?  Oh, well.  I'll be over here with everybody else, not giving one fucking fish!
• Why not take risks and think outside the box?
• Real leaders lead by example.  And real leaders don't influence or motivate others, it's actually quite the opposite, in that others influence and motivate the leaders. 
• IMs are on a desireable basis, they're not forced.  Sometimes the shit that goes on in groups feels really obligatory, and then ppl lose interest for various reasons ...Fuck all that.
• We just... Don't give a fuck about any of that unless our kingdom members do.  For example, I stopped giving a fuck about RPG jobs, but one of our members explained that they really wanted it... so we tried it... aren't sorry... and are grateful for any ideas from anyone who also DGAF.

• How do the members of the Kingdom of DGAF support one another, without any formal group structure?
• How does anyone with a formal group support one another?  Is everyone really engaged all the time, or is it just a bunch of ultimatums and bullshit?
• Direct IMs make it easy to tell what actually matters.
• We value integrity  ...We just DGAF if anyone else doesn't have it, and we'll keep on showing them how it's done. 

• How do you ensure that the kingdom's tax earnings are channeled back into LGH for the benefit of all?
• Take care of the kingdom, and the kingdom takes care of itself.
• An alliance here and there may help *cough-coughs about Royal Fishdom + Nutty Bunch, Shark Isle + Unity, and Potheads + ...*  ...yeah, IDK.  Those SL Amazons and Wal-Marts sure are taking care of the LGH economy, aren't they?  And they seem to get stupid jealous when the little mom and pop shops not only survive the pandemic but thrive.  ...Hmm.  Makes you think.

• How do you recruit new members and maintain the relaxed, chill atmosphere of the Kingdom of DGAF?
• Usually someone will ask one of us about it.  We don't push it onto anyone.  The right ppl will come along when they're ready.  Nobody needs their time wasted.
• Out of respect for our current members, new members are usually discussed with current members, beforehand.
• If a new member joins without having talked with any of us, we will reach out to them and follow thru with previously mentioned points. 
• If they're unresponsive and seem like an alt spy or otherwise disrespectful twat, they're booted.  No qualms.
• As for me, personally, I'll take quality over quantity any day.  But I'm also not judgmental... It's fun to teach someone who really wants to learn and is motivated!  Newbie or oldbie.  ...I can't speak for any of the other members, tho.  They're equals and individuals.  You'd have to ask them, if you can figure out who they are.  ;)

• What are some memorable moments and achievements the Kingdom of DGAF has experienced?
• These stories are more meant for a personal discussion, really.  They involve rules and not giving a fuck, a lot  ...I'm actually referencing hilarious entertainment that shouldn't be divulged publicly... LMAO
• Well... Ok... here's a very short tidbit... Samael took one of our fishing rod flags and attached it to his penis area... and then scripted it to twitch.  Bwahahaha!  ...You may have one too, when you join.  xD

• How do you envision the future growth and development of the Kingdom of DGAF while maintaining its laid-back character?
• Gravy. 

• What unique qualities set the Kingdom of DGAF apart from other kingdoms in the Cyber Society?
• If it's not obvious by now, then I DGAF on providing an answer.  :p

• How does your kingdom's carefree attitude contribute to the larger Cyber Society community?
• IDK... but it's certainly entertaining, isn't it?  ...Wait, what?  It's not?  Maybe you weren't playing the game correctly, then... or, maybe we just DGAF.  Either way... *shrug*  :p

---> I can't fucking read this!

[2023/04/17 14:56]  Wili Clip: As the winners of the Weekly Royal Fish Hunt Contest stood on the podium, their faces beamed with pride and excitement. Karissa Sleydon, MajikVixen Lorefield, and BrendaLee Fredriksson had all battled fiercely to catch the biggest and most elusive fish in the kingdom's waters.

 

But as they looked out at the cheering crowds, they couldn't help but feel a little foolish. After all, they had spent hours standing knee-deep in the water, holding fishing rods and hoping for a bite. It was hardly the stuff of heroic legends.

 

Still, they couldn't deny the thrill of victory as they clutched their prize money and posed for photos. As they walked offstage, Karissa turned to MajikVixen and whispered, "Next week, let's just order fish and chips instead."

[2023/04/17 15:01]  Wili Clip: As the winners of the Weekly Royal Fish Hunt Contest basked in their glory, the townsfolk couldn't help but notice something fishy about their victories.  Karissa Sleydon, MajikVixen Lorefield, and BrendaLee Fredriksson had all caught massive fish, but something seemed off.

 

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the three women had colluded to cheat the contest.  They had used a secret technique of luring the fish with a special bait made from cheeseburgers and beer, a concoction that no fish could resist.

 

The townsfolk were outraged and demanded justice.  But the three women just laughed and said, "Hey, we're not the first to cheat in a fish contest.  At least we didn't use dynamite!"

 

Despite the scandal, the three women were still awarded their prize money and hailed as champions. As they walked offstage, they high-fived each other and vowed to come up with an even crazier bait for next year's contest.

[2023/04/17 15:03]  Wili Clip: Congratulations to Karissa Sleydon, MajikVixen Lorefield, and BrendaLee Fredriksson on their impressive victories in the Weekly Royal Fish Hunt Contest!  Your skills, determination, and dedication have earned you well-deserved rewards and the admiration of your fellow fishermen.

 

It's not easy to catch the biggest and most elusive fish in the kingdom's waters, but you've shown that with perseverance and a little bit of luck, anything is possible.  Your achievements are a testament to your love for the sport and your commitment to excellence.

 

So enjoy your prize money and celebrate your victories, but also remember the camaraderie and sportsmanship that make fishing such a beloved pastime.  We look forward to seeing you and other talented anglers back on the water next week for another exciting contest. Well done!

[2023/04/17 15:04]  Wili Clip: new FISH HUNT celebrities!  Karissa Sleydon, MajikVixen Lorefield, and BrendaLee Fredriksson!

.·´¯`·. . • . .·´¯`·.·´¯`·. . • . .·´¯`·🐠.·´¯`·. . • . .·´¯`·.·´¯`·. . • . .·´¯`·

Oi.

So the story goes like this...

Hadn't been fishing in a while.  Too much RL and no point in blogging for NW with clone since all the good clothing options are on my main account (which is also my slave fishing account, sadly).  

Picked it back up on Thursday and stayed awake 3 days in a row, rushing as fast as I could! 

...My main motivation for fishing so much was to gain the XP back that I had lost.  I mean, I've been fishing for years and some newer player can not only get up to the Overall rank I have, but pass me in much less time than I had invested...!  It's a bit demotivating until you realize it's about them not having as much important shit to do as you (and then you end up feeling a bit sorry for them ... and yourself as well)... But, still.  I mean, if you're gonna pass me in less time than it took for me to ever get that Overall rank, please do it so quickly that I don't have to see you in my every cast stats (like, pass the next person too), FFS! 

At some point, I broke my personal rule of not chatting in the somewhat unsurprisingly toxic LGH group (inspired by Wili's random conversation that usually ends in causing drama since he chooses to stir the pot with taboos like, religion, politics, and sex, LOL).  He ironically likes to promote his "no killing" rule, when he sets it all up!  But the good news is that more and more are starting to see the light, I suppose.  xD  

When I joined chat, the conversation went from artificial intelligence to movies to magic and ended on a high note of animals.  I did, however, like that the concept of magic was well received and agreed upon: it's a balance of energy (as it can neither be created nor destroyed) and you, therefore, get back whatever you put out.

Oh yeah, and later on, for more of his own entertainment (and punishment for my participation in unnecessarily "saving the day" earlier, LOL), Wili announced in LGH group that he would be making Sophina a society job manager ... She took over being his LGH Newspapers/blogs editor, after I quit because "the Senate & my conveniently unnecessary rival / Queen" vetoed his idea to pay writers in Gold...

...It wasn't "the Senate & my conveniently unnecessary rival's / Queen's" idea to veto, it was Wili's...  Believe me, he and I had a 3-hour-long Discord conversation where I reminded him that a good reporter always checks their facts (when he thought he could rely on me not being "important enough" to know any other Senate members who witnessed his veto idea)  ...And where he also gas-lit me by calling me a "failure" as an editor (who vehemently pointed out the flaw in a writer's talent/job not worth being paid), and had completely dropped RL to make a record-breaking retraction (that only took about 3 hours) to not "kill" "those" who "killed" first, and for him ignoring said retraction by failing to teach me what he actually wanted, and by instead graffitiing all over it with his words -without any communication to me whatsoever, until way after the fact -and prompted by me when I discovered it all on my own, days later.

So, okay... Then he also announced opening up an advertising job in the LGH group.  Even picked on a random newer person to "follow in his footsteps."  To which, I had to worriedly make reference to "if the Senate doesn't veto" ...and I was corrected, in that the Senate cannot veto jobs that are now going to be paid in L$.

...Can you imagine any of that or anything getting done without writing?  

Ah, whatever.  Doesn't matter.  I DGAF[ish].  And as I've told Wili before, I wanted to give back to LGH in the best way I knew how (with my writing skills and helping others hone theirs), because I believed in him and his dream ...But instead, "they" all threw it back in my face and would rather have me slaughter everyone repeatedly, in the weekly Royal (since I "fail" at my purpose in doing anything else).  :p

Well, okay.  So I got in the weekly Royal top 10 extremely fast.  But getting back to first place, vaguely reminded me of something that happened way back in the day, when I started learning how to fish...

See, Karissa would always be in the lead by about 2k RPs.  I could catch up pretty quickly, but as soon as she was only about 100 RPs ahead (or a tiny bit more), I noticed that she would jump ahead again to ~2k+ RPs.  It was like, "Come get it, come get it ... Not so fast!  Haha!  Still mine, not yours!"

I am actually more familiar with the concept of stacking potions, especially from a class GM Brook gave:

[2021/09/29 14:33]  Brook Demonia: 1 Royal Potion gives you 5 charges.

Each charge boosts your Royal points when you catch a fish or collect a coin for 10 additional Royal Points.

[2021/09/29 14:33]  Brook Demonia: POTIONS ARE STACKABLE

[2021/09/29 14:34]  Brook Demonia: You can drink potion after potion to stack them up.

When you get over 100 stacked charges (20 potions) you get 100 Additional Royal Points per cast or collected coin and it takes 10 potions from your inventory.

[2021/09/29 14:35]  Brook Demonia: so you get that 100 added to what ever you would get without the potion

[2021/09/29 14:35]  Brook Demonia: Next milestone is at 500 stacked charges (100 drank potions) and 1000 stacked charges (200 potions).

[2021/09/29 14:36]  Brook Demonia: so in just 1 cast you could get like 140 rp points

Meanwhile, Brenda had IMed me because she was like, "Where did you come from?!" since it only took a very little amount of time to get to 2nd place (in fact, I think she was logged off the entire time I had been furiously fishing, if I'm not mistaken).  xD  ...Somewhere in there, I had explained that I kept trying to sell Magic worms, but some asshat kept lowering the price, so I figured, "Fuck it, I'll use them, myself!"

In the previous weeks of my absence, Brenda had hit me up for advice, and we talk on occasion because another friend of mine DJs for her ...Plus she seems like just an all-around nice person!  So yeah, it's neat to be able to compare notes with another awesome kingdom leader every so often.

One of the things I had pointed out to Brenda a while ago, was the time Mermaid Celene let me win Royal...  She had stacked enough potions to pwn ALL of LGH for motherfucking months (and likely spent a pretty penny on it too) ...Like, one cast put her ahead by double thousand digits (OMFG)!  But still, I fished fast and furious then, too.  I was determined to not go down without a fight... ALL the way to the end of the weekly competition!

But I was watching the scoreboard, and I could see that Magic worms + Alacrity were absolutely no match for Mermaid's one cast of obscenely stacked potions.  ...Now, I did win that Royal, but afterward, I had to ask her why she let me win... And she very simply said that it was because I wanted it.  Thus, I learned that that was one of the qualities that a real leader possesses.  And, yup, I passed that on to Brenda.

Now Brenda and I did notice that we hadn't seen Karissa around or win, and that she was doing very well.  So this indeed seemed like one of those opportunity things for us to help with.  "I'm just going to get one cast away from her score and leave it at that," I told Brenda.

Well, as time went on and Karissa kept driving me nuts by utilizing her confusing strategy of not stacking potions (never actually allowing me to get just one cast away from her score), I decided to ask Samael WTF this could possibly be all about, as he plays "real" games outside of the SL virtual reality platform  ...All I could remember was several years ago, when this type of fishing happened to me and I was still very new... my leader said something like, "Oh, you're too new for them to be playing like that!"  Which didn't help much, although I think they tried to give me some potions so I could learn... But as I never got enough potions to defeat 1st (which would've been a ridiculously unworthwhile amount), I didn't quite get it (and didn't run into the same situation again until now).  And since LGH/SL has found so many ways to drive an otherwise stable person into total insecurity, I was just dying to understand WTF kind of strategy this was!

"The Royal potions cost money and time, right?" he asked me, a bit rhetorically.

"Yes," I replied.

"Well, she's trying to win by saving as much as possible and is likely thinking, 'Goddamn, why the fuck won't this bitch give up already?'  ...Up to you if you wanna be 'liked by all' (who probably won't even care or notice anyway), and be that kind of a leader... But if you're really bored and want to keep on fishing, why not just pretend you're Wili (and all other gamers), who see everyone on the internet as fake/pawns for their own amusement, and go for the jugular ...Like, who cares?  It is a competition, after all," he finished.

And I finally understood.

...Well, I was not tired, and I still wanted to fish!  And Karissa kept teasing me by rolling on another potion, every time I would get close to being one cast behind her.  So I finally started to do other things while I fished, and eventually lost track of her going to bed!!!  Which is why I left Royal like this before I told Brenda I fucked up and was going to go play another game until the weekly competition ended!  xD

Meanwhile, it was confirmed that Brook had passed away on Friday, due to a very unfair ordeal with cancer.  

...So, you know I have to take a bit of your time to tell you about this very wonderful soul...

Brook was extremely innocent and kind.  She never ever said a bad thing about anyone or anything.  At all.  She was just as sweet as you'd never expect another human being to be.  I knew her from when I was a Pothead and from her venues with Cara.

Brook loved Cara so much, that she urged me to give up winning Monthly for the first time, for her.  I explained that it wasn't intentional ...and we somehow got into the subject of the Enchanted worm farms I had bought to be about the same price as buying Wili a fucking car...  And she was like, "lol by the way I bought his other car"  xD

There was also a buoy at Blue/Purple Darwin, which you had to be naked to fish at (or be banned from both the land and the LGH game)... I convinced Brook to go with me.  I explained that we could skirt around the naked law by being naked n00b avatars (we didn't necessarily have to be our current/regular naked selves).  Plus it was the "weirdo" hours in the morning, and nobody would see us.  And, yeah, safety in numbers and all that, we could protect each other from the creeps, LOL!  ...And she did.  She went with me, unknowingly as a good luck charm... Because that was the time I won a HUGE fucking fishpot too (like over L$100)!  That's what Potheads was really all about.  The clan going out together to clean out fishpots.  Not just fucking pot smoking, having fun, and enjoying life together (or, really, being afraid Queen would make you feel guilty by bitching, growling, or hissing in PH group chat about how her last pot got stolen by a glitch and that she hadn't won a pot in years ...holy fuck).

Brook shared with me a pic of her very first avatar, and we got into a conversation about how pretty we always think we are, but then technology changes so fast, and well, there you are!  xD  ...She also made me promise not to tell, but yeah, she shared a pic she managed to get of Wili there too (he was too proud to invoke a n00b avatar, but he did sport a box over his head)!  xD  \m/

And then, finally... I had just gotten thru my ordeal of believing my avatar looked like shit from feeling rejected by not just The Peach... I mean, it was such a fucking head trip for me that I took DD's advice and finished my purple Day of the Dead Stitched Bat Dinkie, and wanted to walk around in nothing but that for the rest of my SL -if I even logged on at all ...and Brook reached out to check on me.  I wasn't even a Pothead anymore by then.  But apparently, I hadn't cashed out my weekly Royal winnings and such, and she was concerned.  ...Can you imagine?  Someone dealing with the horror of cancer, and having the kindness to inquire and care about my stupid and selfish first-world problems?

I vaguely told her everything in as few words and omitted as many details as I could.  And wouldn't you know, that on top of that, she very compassionately took the time to validate the person behind the avatar?  ...Brook was real.  And she could see that I was too...  The fact that depth still existed in SL, and wasn't going anywhere, meant SO much to me in that moment.  It did.  It was a metaphoric grain of sanity to cling to and admire for a bit, before planting and thriving once again.

That was Brook.  Very selfless.  And you know what?  ...It extremely sucks that humanity had to lose a luminary like that... But I have to take comfort in the fact that she had to answer a higher calling and transcend into something even more beautiful, if you can imagine, so she could very deservingly, never have to endure any more pain again, whatsoever.  ♥

Well... Anyway...

I woke up to this before getting ready for RL work:

...Well... 

...So...

I guess that maybe winning 2nd place did make a difference to someone.  Because we specifically don't have our vote boards up at Business Park with everyone else, plus I have gone out of my way to not wear that RPG Heart of Society that everyone can easily vote for other players with ...and the only other way to vote for us is by visiting our region or via being logged into the LGH website... Not only because we DGAF, but because honestly, if you want to do a good job or be a good person, you should do it because it comes naturally from within you... Not because you're fake and motivated by a kind of monetary reward.  ...Honestly.

Now, I certainly don't proclaim to know everything about life, because even those who have been around a long while still learn something new all the time.  But I do know that a real leader leads by example.  And that real leaders don't influence or motivate others, but it's actually quite the opposite, in that others influence and motivate the leader.  

...But thanks for letting me share my thoughts with you, and I hope you make it all worthwhile by always giving and therefore getting the best out of your SL (and RL) ...like I believe that ppl such as Brook did.  ♥

Compilation, 2nd Week of January, 2023

• Worked very hard on blog, keeping up with "Majik's Profile Songs (Archive)" entry (leaving it on VNV Nation's "Dark Angel" song because of LGH events, mentioned last) and published "Majik's Official Weekly Sales List," "Majik's Favorite Fashions" (more to be added later, perhaps), "A Majikal Bit on Deciphering the Blockchain," and "Google-able."
• Caught up with Bixyl Shuftan and linked to SL Newser @ bottom of every page on this blog, as well.  ...If you would like me to link to your blog, simply let me know, would love to do that, thanks!
• Also, thanks to Bixyl, added gadgets to the bottom of each page on this "Notes From Majik..." blog - Now you can go to the Home page, Contents page, or search for anything in here.

• Believe Alina of Fiverr gave up on me, as I asked too many questions and I think she wanted to make me feel like an idiot for doing so.
• Learned a bit on naming and alt-tagging images.
• Waiting about a month to hope this blog is searchable on Google again.
• Recourse is blogging/pinging more, linking to other blogs, and possible help from MysticTutor.

• Applied to blog for NeverWish, which seemed to go well when I spoke to Pixie Ruby, as she's aware I blogged about her before (without any prompting).
• Even tho I don't think it was necessary, I made a Blogotex account too (click the pic to read, I think I'm funny).

• Dante Gabriel Rossetti (DanteGabriel) is the cause for a 3rd negative thing to have happened within my participation in the Cyber Society.
• So, congrats, I stopped participating in the Cyber Society, although, the boundaries are still a bit unclear (yeah, you can click this pic to read it, too).

• Won Royal fish hunt, final score was 423657 RP, but was too tired and slept for RL work.

...So this is a tiny bit of my story, as of late.  Later on, I might share where I have really been and why + why I went back to fishing and why am really not Wili's Editor anymore.  One thing is for sure, tho, I'm having some more custom wings meshed to replace my current ones, which I am absolutely and unequivocally no longer fond of.  ...But for now, I'm happy, so why ruin that?  Let's revel in celebration and focus on some more positive productivity!  ;)  \m/

[2022/12/05 03:11]  Austyn Mercury: a lot of royal potions, stacked

[2022/12/05 03:11]  ℳαʝɨҟᐺɨӽڠɳ (MajikVixen Lorefield): ...It's very simple.  I've been playing long enough to have enough XP to grow all my worms.  And when I'm working on things on the other screen, I'm still fishing.  ...It's not rocket science.

[2022/12/05 03:11]  ℳoɳḱ (Priest Carnell): The winners are receiving death threats and the like nowadays

[2022/12/05 03:11]  Austyn Mercury: and lots of hours

[2022/12/05 03:11]  ℳαʝɨҟᐺɨӽڠɳ (MajikVixen Lorefield): If anything's worth doing, you do it right and thorough

[2022/12/05 03:12]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): nah, there are no death threats here :)

[2022/12/05 03:12]  ℳoɳḱ (Priest Carnell): There was earlier

[2022/12/05 03:12]  Anaconda Carter: not worth it to me

[2022/12/05 03:13]  Anaconda Carter: id rather just sell a horse

[2022/12/05 03:13]  ℳoɳḱ (Priest Carnell): lol

[2022/12/05 03:13]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): there were death threats?

[2022/12/05 03:13]  Spinmaster Voom: I stopped when the debt  bonus was introduced - makes unequal conditions for the fishers

[2022/12/05 03:13]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): Yeah, way way off the intended purpose Maja

[2022/12/05 03:14]  Anaconda Carter: a score that high kind of makes it useless for regular people to try to compete

[2022/12/05 03:14]  Austyn Mercury: ah I see maja

[2022/12/05 03:14]  ℳoɳḱ (Priest Carnell): Yeah there was a death threat tho. Beware the winners

[2022/12/05 03:14]  Wili Clip: Royal potions will directly feed into the size of the reward and benefit all the fishers... the update is in the making ^^

[2022/12/05 03:14]  Austyn Mercury: now it's a spendy contest

[2022/12/05 03:15]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): Oh yeah, that's the plus, Royal potion taxes :)

[2022/12/05 03:15]  Anaconda Carter: can't believe someone would take this seriously enough to issue a death threat unless you mean that guy earlier who said challenge accepted

[2022/12/05 03:15]  Wili Clip: Also everyone can craft them themselves or buy from crafters... it helps the crafter economy... so not only fishers get the money... but also crafters...

[2022/12/05 03:15]  Austyn Mercury: ^

[2022/12/05 03:15]  Austyn Mercury: agreed anaconda

[2022/12/05 03:15]  Wili Clip: and it helps Snuffles game as well

[2022/12/05 03:15]  Wili Clip: as snuffles get you GOLD the base ingredient for royal potions if you're into crafting

[2022/12/05 03:15]  Wili Clip: Royal Potions help many people across...

[2022/12/05 03:15]  Yasu (YASUMORI): will you should do 3 royal fish contests: one for green, one for yellow and one for red lol

[2022/12/05 03:16]  Anaconda Carter: what update, to the entire system?

[2022/12/05 03:16]  Wili Clip: You have it Maja.. the monthly fishing rank

[2022/12/05 03:16]  Wili Clip: is unaffected by any worms or potions

[2022/12/05 03:16]  ℳoɳḱ (Priest Carnell): Wili you should combine the royal contest with battle avatar and make it Battle Royal

[2022/12/05 03:16]  Austyn Mercury: lol

[2022/12/05 03:16]  Wili Clip: and no one is interested in it and there can also be no money prize because no one wants to provide funding for it..

[2022/12/05 03:16]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): Yeah monthly is fair.

[2022/12/05 03:16]  Anaconda Carter: and what's the benefit of the monthly?

[2022/12/05 03:16]  Wili Clip: while the weekly contests are successful and royal potions will make the reward prize that is shared among all contestants grow even bigger soon

[2022/12/05 03:17]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): Battle Royale.. I like it Monk :)

[2022/12/05 03:17]  ℳoɳḱ (Priest Carnell): yes ^^

[2022/12/05 03:17]  AL121981: rank bonus for monthly

[2022/12/05 03:17]  Austyn Mercury: Battle Royale:  A Fight for the Fishes

[2022/12/05 03:17]  Wili Clip: "Ewww those grapes they don't taste good anyway," said the fox who couldn't reach the yummy grapes O .. O

[2022/12/05 03:17]  Anaconda Carter: is the prize money based on the amount of points you have, or on your place in the contest?

[2022/12/05 03:17]  Wili Clip: Royal Fishing Competition is not for everyone

[2022/12/05 03:17]  Jayde Elizabeth Vulpe (JaytheFox69): >.>

[2022/12/05 03:18]  Wili Clip: it is only for professional fishers... well the reward from it is shared with everyone

[2022/12/05 03:18]  AL (AL121981): it is fair, but the shubbie helps at monthly when you can cast faster?

[2022/12/05 03:18]  Wili Clip: so in a way it is for everyone... but not everyone can win

[2022/12/05 03:18]  Wili Clip: \O .. O/

[2022/12/05 03:18]  Austyn Mercury: professional potions drinkers

[2022/12/05 03:18]  Wili Clip: Cause it's competition!!! O .. O

[2022/12/05 03:18]  Wili Clip: \O .. O/

[2022/12/05 03:18]  Anaconda Carter: hello, is the royal reward money based on your place in the contest, or how many points you have?

[2022/12/05 03:19]  AL (AL121981): place I think

[2022/12/05 03:19]  Equestrian85: pretty sure it is proportional to your percentage of the total scored points.

[2022/12/05 03:19]  AL (AL121981): and place affected by the points obviously :)

[2022/12/05 03:19]  Anaconda Carter: and THAT'S where it gets ridiculous then

[2022/12/05 03:20]  ℳoɳḱ (Priest Carnell): Since it is counted with RP and XP, yes

[2022/12/05 03:20]  CloeConcy: also the reward should also be decided as soon as possible

[2022/12/05 03:20]  Cloe Marleen (CloeConcy): if is a competition

[2022/12/05 03:20]  Wili Clip: The monthly ranking is more of your taste Maja \O .. O/

[2022/12/05 03:20]  Wili Clip: you get monthly rank bonus

[2022/12/05 03:20]  Anaconda Carter: I fish every single day, multiple buoys, and the most I get these days from the Royal is 4L can't imagine ppl who sign up for it and fish less

[2022/12/05 03:20]  Wili Clip: if you sum it up it comes for a lot in a month... O .. O

[2022/12/05 03:21]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): now watering.. that's more of a fair game.

[2022/12/05 03:21]  ℳoɳḱ (Priest Carnell): /me crawls back into a crack in the wall

[2022/12/05 03:21]  Wili Clip: Royal Weekly contest benefits anyone who fishes and wins Royal Points.... you will get share of L$ prize....  proportionally to how much you fish...

[2022/12/05 03:22]  Wili Clip: if you want you can craft some potions

[2022/12/05 03:22]  Wili Clip: and sell them

[2022/12/05 03:22]  Jayde Elizabeth Vulpe (JaytheFox69): tasty worms give more xp :P

[2022/12/05 03:22]  Wili Clip: make L$

[2022/12/05 03:22]  Mystique Desire: plus potions, plus rod plus credit

[2022/12/05 03:22]  Wili Clip: then you don't need to be poor O .. O

[2022/12/05 03:22]  Anaconda Carter: proportionate to how many points you mean

[2022/12/05 03:22]  Jayde Elizabeth Vulpe (JaytheFox69): credit is good, we get a higher payout limit

[2022/12/05 03:22]  HungarianNaturalHealer: I completely agree with Maja. Maja says something that makes sense, which would only make everything better overall.

[2022/12/05 03:22]  Wili Clip: poverty in some way is a choice... It is especially a choice when there are tools and means of doing something so that you don't need to stay poor

[2022/12/05 03:23]  Wili Clip: @answer to Maja

[2022/12/05 03:23]  Anaconda Carter: that's bs

[2022/12/05 03:23]  Wili Clip: And at the end of the day, and like we always said and agreed

[2022/12/05 03:23]  Wili Clip: Royal Weekly fishing contest is OPTIONAL

[2022/12/05 03:24]  Wili Clip: no one has ever been or is and ever will be forced to participate

[2022/12/05 03:24]  Wili Clip: those who do and win we celebrate and reward \O .. O/

[2022/12/05 03:24]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): that's true ^_^

[2022/12/05 03:24]  Wili Clip: is always your choice how you fish

[2022/12/05 03:24]  Anaconda Carter: pay to play and win

[2022/12/05 03:24]  Wili Clip: we provide many different ways for you to fish

[2022/12/05 03:24]  Wili Clip: you can fish for relaxing

[2022/12/05 03:24]  Wili Clip: you can fish to de-stress

[2022/12/05 03:24]  Wili Clip: or you can fish in a competitive way if being a competitor is something that is for you

[2022/12/05 03:25]  Jayde Elizabeth Vulpe (JaytheFox69): Wili may I message you real quick?

[2022/12/05 03:25]  Wili Clip: FISH HUNT provides something for everyone

[2022/12/05 03:25]  Sonic (BraveSonic): it's fun for spectators as well lol

[2022/12/05 03:25]  Wili Clip: and crafting and crafters and economy built around it is part of the game as well

[2022/12/05 03:25]  Wili Clip: just like farming

[2022/12/05 03:25]  Wili Clip: competitive fishing helps all farmers

[2022/12/05 03:25]  Wili Clip: because more worms get sold

[2022/12/05 03:25]  Wili Clip: and it also helps those who are poor and want to make some L$ crafting potions \O .. O/

[2022/12/05 03:26]  Anaconda Carter: to craft they have to buy recipes

[2022/12/05 03:26]  Illanya Seetan: Competitive? like Full Contact Fishing?

[2022/12/05 03:26]  Wili Clip: its cut-throat competition O .. O

[2022/12/05 03:26]  Zola (HungarianNaturalHealer): It is not only in the interest of the players, but also in the interest of the owner, in this case, Wili Clip, to make the game work even better. Make it even better. There are people like Maja who see things very well and surely it would be better for the game and also for Wili Clip and the players if they were utilized.

[2022/12/05 03:26]  Illanya Seetan: don't forget the helmet and padding

[2022/12/05 03:26]  Wili Clip: I've seen those competitors get at each other with fishing rods O .. O

[2022/12/05 03:26]  Wili Clip: It is your decision how you decide to fish

[2022/12/05 03:27]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): yep, totally cutthroat.. ^_^

[2022/12/05 03:27]  Wili Clip: when you craft a potion and if you collect free GOLD and you sell the potion you get 50 - 80% of profit on the price of potion

[2022/12/05 03:27]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): /me trips someone.

[2022/12/05 03:31]  Wili Clip: each competitor has a group of fans who cheer and yell in support \O .. O/

[2022/12/05 03:31]  Zola (HungarianNaturalHealer): If the smartest, most experienced players sit down for a private conversation with the owner, they will surely come up with something even better together. There is always something better.

[2022/12/05 03:31]  Wili Clip: and if competitions keep growing there will be SPONSORS adding to the pot \O .. O/

[2022/12/05 03:32]  Wili Clip: But before that Royal Potions will help feed the prize pot shared to all competitors \O .. O/

[2022/12/05 03:32]  Wili Clip: and they help crafters / producers of the potions

[2022/12/05 03:32]  Austyn Mercury: let's have bare-bones fishing contest, beginner rod only, no potions lol

[2022/12/05 03:33]  Sonic (BraveSonic): lol

[2022/12/05 03:33]  Jayde Elizabeth Vulpe (JaytheFox69): yup

[2022/12/05 03:33]  Wili Clip: for things to grow there needs to be funding

[2022/12/05 03:34]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): well... that explains everything!!!

[2022/12/05 03:34]  QTπ Dawson (CutiePie4Play Starlight): been doing it all wrong!

[2022/12/05 03:34]  Jayde Elizabeth Vulpe (JaytheFox69): fish are a great judge of character

[2022/12/05 03:34]  Wili Clip: the only funding that a game can have is from its own economy

[2022/12/05 03:34]  Sonic (BraveSonic): they judge the best fisher after their heads are chopped

[2022/12/05 03:34]  Wili Clip: for that you need to understand economy

[2022/12/05 03:34]  Anaconda Carter: lol

[2022/12/05 03:34]  Wili Clip: and set up things in a way that economy is boosted

[2022/12/05 03:34]  Jayde Elizabeth Vulpe (JaytheFox69): I have a tank full of them, and they won't stop multiplying x.x

[2022/12/05 03:35]  Dida Skytower: yes long live capitalism and free money flow

[2022/12/05 03:35]  Wili Clip: communist built systems on ideals and they ended up killing people

[2022/12/05 03:35]  Wili Clip: they just locked up people who did not agree with their vision of the world...

[2022/12/05 03:35]  Anaconda Carter: oh I used to have platies

[2022/12/05 03:35]  Wili Clip: instead of forcing other people it is always the right thing to give them choice
