[…] Lively? Wasn’t ‘Lively’ not err.. lively enough? Not enough interest as sex & flirting was not allowed in Lively? :D And err, is this one less competition for Second Life, or a large bunch of people that now will […]

Just tryed lively, downloaded, “played” for 10 minutes (the time to get a hand on the controls), then left…Times ago I was laughing at people playing SecondLife, I can only have pitty for who is on lively. Btw, I’m a second life user and addict, I was expecting a bit more for something “newer”, great graphics with more realism, better textures/size, maybe not faster on downloading the maps, or Rezzin for SL users. It’s a kind of game you find in cereals boxes, with graphics for little kids (I double checked, I WASN’T on lively kids!! can you believe that ?) Well, this is my first 10 minutes, now that I hear “no sex/drugs/rock&roll”, I definitly don’t get what’s the point of that game/chatroom

No sex please, we’re Lively?

As you say, good to see that there is somewhere that those apparent adults who can’t cope with adult themes like nipples or, heaven forfend, genitals, can run away to, and stop irritating the rest of us with their cries of “Won’t SOMEBODY think of the children!”

I tried Lively, but the dang thing kills my browser or slows it down far too much. Still, with these puritanical standards, I agree, I’ll stay in SL where I can get my sex, drugs, and rock and roll if I want (though I actually only care for the rock and roll part, really).

Wow, for real? Is this particular virtual world going to be for 8 year olds that haven’t discovered their hormones yet??? Holy crap.

I tried Lively yesterday for the first time. Now, granted I’m extremely used to Second Life’s controls, but the camera on Lively sucks a lot.

Also the interface is confusing. Is it all rooms or is there a huge expansive world? Maybe I’m doing it wrong.

Also I couldn’t find a mouse view, I love using mouse view to get inside my AV’s head.

The little cat it put me in by default was cute though. I’ll give it that it is quite a bit nicer to look at than SL.

I ‘visited’ Lively and ended up into this discussion on whether or not if Batman took a vacation would Superman take over his duties. Or something like that.

I’ve never been back.

I agree also but I have more to add: I went to Lively.:-/ (to protect my SL name for future use) I logged off <> and will not be back again. I’m an open person but…..when your AVI gets kissed, within the first two minutes after entering a COFFEE house!! There’s no: [insert Avi name] would like to give you a kiss. Gasp, I felt violated. Perhaps I’m wrong in my judgment, but I felt like “What the Fug!!! Even in a sex area in SL you can decline an offer. No such courtesies in Lively that this Avi experienced. SL has never made me feel bad and I will not be switching over.

Side note: Male Avi friend of mine was sucker punched while in Lively.

It seems their policy on any sexual content or discussion is about as strict as their copyright (or lack of) policy on youtube. For legality reasons, just as on YouTube, they must show some supervision to user-submitted content. I sure hope the future of Lively is more lively and less laggy.
