		<description>&gt;&gt;try to keep that warm, toasty feel of hand-generated self-righteousness

yes! Like the left hand you have permanently planted in your groin diddling yourself while your right hand mashes the keyboard in a constant fit of self-righteous freudian BDSM bag-lady park babble. What the fuck was done to you as a child you poor old thing, me wonders?

Can ya also send me one o them new ProkNeva SpittleHubs (tm) old deary, once ya get them built through your extensive network of top sl talent that lives down among your smelly old drawers? I don&#039;t know if i&#039;m teki-nici-ficcally capable of clicking on one myself to get one.
I can find some industrial grade ear plugs to simulate your hearing myself.
And don&#039;t forget the shader vizfx filtering to warp the viewpoint so we can all get an accurate piccy of what it&#039;s like to be you from the eyeball end!

*Shudder*

		<description>&gt;I&#039;VE HILIGHTED.&quot; (My caps)

I just highlighted them? No evil plans of domination here, just a highlight? hello?

I&#039;m not worried about &quot;my credibility&quot; as you envision it. If I worried about &quot;my credibility&quot; as people in SL envision it, I would never speak a word.

&gt;If you&#039;re going to do it though, you shouldn&#039;t hand people ammunition on a plate, as your careless comment did.

Um, I haven&#039;t made any careless comments? It&#039;s just your feverish imagination, that begins to back away from your original, independent stance, under the collective pressure of the little Hive Mind that can get buzzing on a thread like this. Resist, resist, Inigo, I know you can do it!

You ought to know by now that delivering little homilies to me about the precepts for living and writing about SL have no effect on me; I do hope they help you articulate your own goals, however, otherwise your effort spent cranking up into self-righteous overdrive is wasted!

Nolan/Topo, you need to keep your personas straight.

&quot;It&#039;s really, really creepy at times, listening to someone so often accuse others of behavior they themselves exemplify to a &quot;T&quot;. On Second Thought, I should probably not find it surprising nor creepy. People with the various neuroses exhibted by Neva many times project. Our resident loon just happens to project at about 500,000 candle power.&quot;

I&#039;m glad you&#039;ve had a chance to evaluate my posts and determine the right moral meter setting that fits for you. I&#039;ve helped you do that. You now know for sure that you hate it when people make what seem like false comparisons; you loathe what you feel is hypocrisy; you have many other insights and valuations that are giving you now the sturdy sense of self-worth and purpose that you never had before you began reading my candle-powered posts.

So work with that, stay with that, try to keep that warm, toasty feel of hand-generated self-righteousness, because in our cruel world of Second Life, the cold winds of brutal server reality an so easily dissipate anyone&#039;s cloud of self-worth.

		<description>Prokofy said: &quot;That doesn&#039;t have to be posited as something that is done at the expense of poor children in Uganda; to do so is ridiculous and extremist.&quot;

Yeah. I tend to agree, AND the same goes for constant extremist camparisons to the Soviet Union. Just think of those poor millions upon millions of murdered people. Having their pain, suffering, toture and ultimate deaths used by some tinfoil hatter to advance an agenda against the people she loathes on the intarweb. How low. For shame, for shame!

It&#039;s really, really creepy at times, listening to someone so often accuse others of behavior they themselves exemplify to a &quot;T&quot;. On Second Thought, I should probably not find it surprising nor creepy. People with the various neuroses exhibted by Neva many times project. Our resident loon just happens to project at about 500,000 candle power.

&quot;Do as I say, not as I do,
Why? &#039;Cause I&#039;m better than you!&quot;

Biggest hypocrite in SL, hands down. The big question is whether or not Neva is a true crazy person or is just that diabolical, manipulative and cunning, so as to knowingly fabricate motives for anyone who does not toe the prokline. You&#039;d think she had a fiber running into each of our brains, so she can pull out our very innermost thoughts, plans, and desires, and &quot;report&quot; them.

On the topic of this thread - the only reason Prokofy is dry-humping the whole thing is because she sees it as a victory in her Quixotic battle with the &quot;FIC&quot;.

Your methods are known Prokofy. The longer you go on like a hydrophobic poodle, the weaker you become.

Those teeth are falling out one by one.

		<description>Hello,

Sorry for the delay.  Stupid RL.  (is anyone else REALLY ready for Christmas break?) =)  For anyone interested, I posted the LSL and PHP powering the Elemental distribution system at http://forums.secondlife.com/showthread.php?p=1363902#post1363902 .  It used to do all sorts of fancy serving statistics, but I stripped all that out so it could handle load more rapidly.

As I note in the forum post, it&#039;s not a secure transaction.  It&#039;s pretty basic (doesn&#039;t handle non-free stuff) but I&#039;m sure if someone wanted to they could update the scripting to handle actual for-pay items.  Since I prefer the Elemental to be free, I guess I don&#039;t feel the strong urge to make this into a secure, money-handling vendor system.

Hope it helps!

--Kage

		<description>At the considerable risk of repeating myself Prok - YOU wrote:

&quot;all Cristiano can do is grump about the accomplishments I&#039;VE HILIGHTED.&quot; (My caps)

YOU highlighted? Really? Did YOU write the article at the top of these comments? That was my point. And I&#039;m taking your advice Prok, not backing down.

My advice? Well, while you often have interesting things to say, you also often throw your credibility away by getting into personal scraps. You&#039;d punch a lot harder if you didn&#039;t do that, but I guess it&#039;s just your nature. If you&#039;re going to do it though, you shouldn&#039;t hand people ammunition on a plate, as your careless comment did.

As for loosing my nerve... really? :-) Don&#039;t take any bets on it.

		<description>You ARE on crack you silly old womanses!

There is absolutely NOTHING unique about this product...apart from the fact of you hectoring the poor guy to open source it so someone will develop it into a distribution mechanism you can use to distribute the Daily ProkSpew (tm) to torture the in world population with.

or.....maybe a SpittleHud (tm) that self updates with foam flecks whenever Prok posts something new on her blogroll or, god forbid, the herald! Spittle grows in direct proportion to proks increasingly hysterical replies and attempted putdowns! Hey, that would be uber kewl! A bit like &quot;Being Prokofy Neva&quot;!

and it&#039;s not like Porkofky to overstate something now, is it?
