		<description>I have joined my toy in SL (Still playing TSO though) and in a few weeks there, i have only seen a few weapons for sale, I have Not seen them used at all.
There is simply too much else to do, I was completely blown away my first day with the sense of freedom, i have since made a few unique objects, and i have found there is a Real market for my art, I am now setting up a gallery.
Intimidating,, no, SL is a culture shock, but it is not intimidating. people there have greeted me openly, i have been Given some Wonderful gifts (The creative of SL, and that is just about everyone love to share their accomplishments.) and i am settling in very well.
I suppose if people want to set up a Mafia, they can, but Unlike TSO, the game organizers pay very close attention to what goes on so Griefing by Mafias is unlikely to carry on. (One my first day, Someone accidentally bumped into me while i was flying, Immediatly, i got a pop-up letting me know if it was maliciously intentioned i could report it and gain assistance. WOW)
People simply find so much to do there,, so much outlet for play, and creativity, there is no real need to grief from boredom.
Matty, you will find many who will help, and teach you, as i have found. You will, if you like, have to learn a little in order to create, and script, but chere, there is NOTHING wrong with that, it does not take long, and the results will please you more than you imagine, particularly when you realize that you can sell what you have made.
Don&#039;t worry about Mafia&#039;s or guns or any of that nonsense. If you choose not to take part in that kind of play, it will never affect you.

In SL, i am Angelique LaFollette (Maria was taken. :( )

Maria.

		<description>okay, okay.... toy will admit some cool scripting goes into guns and what toy says is her own opinion of guns :)  The hack and slash that weapons represent in games is the very reason toy left UO after playing it for 4 years. they was fun against monsters and such in UO. Going back even further in the old MUDs they were also hack and slash and one of the reasons MUSHs and such were created. In most MUDs there were set goals to accomplish so that one could &#039;kill&#039; better. MUSHs were about user content and no set skills to learn.  I guess things come full circle every decade or so :)
