    Unfixable’s law strikes again. The only people who read the Herald now is the dead and Woodburied. Check the ads – nothing newer than last year, proving that the advertisers all bailed.

    If I want there to be ads, there are ads.
    No matter if others see them.

    So true: it striked again.

    crazy cat lady: “I’M THE CRAZY CAT LADY AND”

    crazy cat lady: “HALDOL DON’T HOLD ME FOR LONG…”

    crazy cat lady: “WOODBURY STILL VISITS ME NIGHTLY”

    crazy cat lady: “WHEN THE HALUCENATIONS GET STRONG”

    (end of chorus)

    pappy: (DA DUM DAH DA DUM)

    crazy cat lady: “I KNOW THAT BY MORNING”

    pappy: (DA DUM DAH DA DUM)

    crazy cat lady: “THAT MY CHICKENS BE GONE”

    crazy cat lady: “BEEN CLICKING ALL NIGHT LONG…”

    (chorus)

    crazy cat lady: “IM THE CRAZY CAT LADY”

    crazy cat lady: “YOU THINK WOODBURY IS GONE?”

    crazy cat lady: “I HAVEN’T SLEPT IN A WEEK AND”

    crazy cat lady: “PS, TIZZERS TELLS ME YOUR WRONG..”

    They moved the blog because Linden Lab forced them, I hear. They didn’t get hit with a law suit – it was a protective move to keep from getting hit with one for squatting on the trademark without paying licensing for seven years.

  11. Darien Caldwell

    Jun 28th, 2010

    Actually they were asked to change from SecondLifeHerald to AlphavilleHerald long before that. It was after JLU did a DMCA takedown on them, and the blog people complied, that they moved, so they wouldn’t have their free speech threatened again. Or something like that. ;p

    You’re absolutely right, Pappy, I swiped your accent.

    I’ll send you the 20L next time I log in.

    That’s rubbish, that is. If the JLU could have made them do that, they could have made them take down all the wiki stuff, which they couldn’t do. So that’s rubbish. No, they got an “or else” letter from LL.

    JLU LOST their DMCA complaint after Pix appealed it, Darien. Once victorious, Pix decided that the Herald would not stay with a service that had such a poor understanding of the First Amendment and the DMCA.

    Uri still owns the secondlifeherald.com domain. If you type that into your browser it will forward to alphavilleherald.com. The switch in masthead names as I understand it had more to do with the publisher and editorial staff deciding that since they covered worlds other than SL, and SL was on the decline, that they should go for a more broadbased appeal.

    So, Crap, how does it feel to finally have gotten on Prok’s bad side? Justified or no?

    @It’s Unfixable

    Please lurk more, most of what you seem to believe is making me red faced, because I have to facepalm so much over hearing it.

    @Darien Caldwell is right long before all this started they were asked to change from SecondLifeHerald to AlphavilleHerald.

    That has nothing to do with JLU, it was purely a corporate lawyer decision.

    Then long after they wrote the JLU articles with the wiki info, go check the dates and old articles.

    Then the JLU did a DMCA that failed, because as you should know they counter filed and exposed their name, the only result was that the hosting company six apart seemed to be retarded and was infringing free speech, which this and many other people would not accept.

    So Alphaville Herald decided that they would like to move to another platform and converted from typepad to wordpress.

    Look at the bottom “Typepad to WordPress Conversion by Foliovision” http://foliovision.com/2008/11/17/typepad-to-wordpress/

    The JLU only helped expose six apart as a low quality service, that infringes the rights of free speech and critical review, that is important exposure so residents understand whats going on outside the normal propaganda, they did not win anything other than being pummeled to dust in the comments sections.

    They choose to hide behind someone they thought would be able to stand up for their side. “GLE”

    They hide like rabbits down a hole, now what ever you think those are the facts, don’t blindly fall for the so called JLU propaganda that celebrates things they never won or never where involved with.

    That only seeks to agitate calm waters, to serve themselves up as heroes to residents in world that they think are inferior and unable to use basic tools to deal with any problem.

    Like it or not most of us are adults, and we don’t need man in tights to protect us.

    We only need the laws to protect us from men in tights, who want to fuck with residents heads and take over sandboxes that are owned and operated by residents who pay for the privilege of providing furries and none furries with a place of calm to build.

    Free speech we all accept, but being constantly nagging and retarded we don’t, use the force Luke use the 3L’s Lurk, Learn, Listen.

    Dunno. Haven’t read any of it.

    After I’d unsubscribed and stopped looking, saw a wave of traffic and folks telling me about some headlines and stuff, figured “Whatever” and went off to read a book.

    BTW – Hazelnut and Chocolate Iced Tea… um… er… blech.

    (Gonna leave that in the break room tomorrow at work, I think.)

    Bla bla bla – you have it just as backwards as Darien. All that happened was JLU made a move, the rag you’re reading made a counter-move, JLU dropped it, the end.

    You’re just proving you’re an ignoramus.

    “Unfixable’s law strikes again. The only people who read the Herald now is the dead and Woodburied. Check the ads – nothing newer than last year, proving that the advertisers all bailed.”

    >Because you assume everyone in WU is a whiny cunt

    “That’s rubbish, that is. If the JLU could have made them do that, they could have made them take down all the wiki stuff, which they couldn’t do. So that’s rubbish. No, they got an “or else” letter from LL.”

    The JLU performed multiple DMCAs. The Herald’s info got removed for a short period of time. The Herald moved from Typepad because they were being dicks. End of story(or not, knowing how you respond). Judge pretty much said it at length.

    “Bla bla bla – you have it just as backwards as Darien. All that happened was JLU made a move, the rag you’re reading made a counter-move, JLU dropped it, the end.”

    But of course he does, because that’s the way Unfixible’s world works. ufufufufu.

    “You’re just proving you’re an ignoramus.”

    And…..what are you proving? That you can whine endlessly? That you can just disregard facts when it comes to specific events such as that and claims things are how you want it to be? Do go on. I can imagine you making a “HURR DURR, YOU REPLIED TO ME, I TROLL YOU” post, but meh. I’m too busy laughing at Operation Repo and your complete disregards to care.

    “Oh, plus, the First Amendment only protects your right of free speech AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT. Is the JLU the Government?”

    OH WOW! hahahahaha. Any blockhead even one not even slightly schooled in the amendments, knows that the first amendment extends beyond just that one thing. Oh wait, you’re trolling of course. ‘Cause I mean, if you mean it you’re an idiot, if not you’re just a fail troll then.

    “Yeah – I’m the only other one.

    Judge Joker is Intblubber, he’s the only other one besides me. And Alyx Stoklo-whatever, who go thrown out of the Woodhead club by Tizzers for being a dickwad.”

    I love how anyone who supports WU that was ever in it is a Woodburied to you, and how those who weren’t Woodburied are just idiots in your eyes. You’re like….a new Kalel. maybe worse actually. No….yeah, you’re worse.

  26. Gaara Sandalwood

    Jun 29th, 2010

    Oh yes, about the first amendment bit. Sorry, I just have to get this out.

    1. The first amendment covers way more than that.

    2. What you said it was solely for was even wrong, because as history has proven, there are circumstances and situations where the United States government can suppress libel and slander against them even with the first amendment in place.

    3. The JLU had their public say and had just as much free speech against groups such as WU as they had towards them. I don’t see you whining against their free speech. Also, the JLU collected real life information on at least about five people because they felt these people were threatening the peace in an online video game, just to throw that out there. They have had plenty of free speech on their side, even more than WU in some circumstances, so why does this little “not the government, not sanctioned by the first amendment” thing work for them in your eyes? Hmmmm?

    *trollface*

    Nah – they just leave the goods lying around, Gaara, and I just use ‘em. Like how you outed yourself as a raider, and then keep moving to new threads and pretending it didn’t happen.

    I dunno, you’re idiots, it’s fun.

    And lets face it, who’se posted in this thread besides Woodburied?

    What Woodbury was (besides the world’s most elaborate pratfall) was like that stuff they put in natural gas to make it smell bad. Rotten egg smell. Hydrogen sulphide. If you go anywhere near it, the smell clings to you forever. If you want proof that somebody’s either a hood or an idiot, check to see if they have Woodburied in their background.

    They couldn’t pull it off with style the way we did (PN) – they were just pathetic, and in the end, the moved to OpenGrid and say they meant to do it, when in reality it’s just because they can’t show their faces anymore.

    We did it with style. Woodburied just did themselves.

    “Nah – they just leave the goods lying around, Gaara, and I just use ‘em. Like how you outed yourself as a raider, and then keep moving to new threads and pretending it didn’t happen.”

    I never outed myself as a raider. Unless you’re referring to that one sim the JLU heard me mention I’d visit to check out and busted in, then started glorifying that I was about to raid it to make them look good. I don’t pretend it never happened.

    “We did it with style. Woodburied just did themselves.”

    Considering the PN were something constructed from internet raiders and WU stemmed from something that is an actual university that, from what I’ve seen, did many artistic things that didn’t involve raiding, I think it’s the opposite. Plus I think WU was held together a bit more tightly than you guys, if the now public information is anything to go by(I say this because a lot of it was on the JLU wiki, which we both know wasn’t completely accurate).

  30. Kiddoh

    Jun 29th, 2010

    “Kiddoh, you troll magnificently, even when you’re told you’re being trolled you still rise to teh occasion LOL”

    Sometimes I wonder if you even know how to use the word ‘troll’. I’ll just assume you don’t. Also; did I not say that I would respond every time you cried about WU? You cry a lot. Oh, and I think it’s cute how you try to pass trolling off as some kind of mystical-magical art of end-all be-all– unfortunately for you, your trolling bothers me as much as a needle bothers a rhino (can’t get past the skin). I should also mention your trolling more-so gives the impression of a kid with ADHD being overly fascinated with magnets based on how you get excited to the point where you will make five posts in a row each over one thing and mostly based on how a topic attracts certain people. To put it simply, you’re not really trolling but are instead a kid with ADHD and a large fascination for attraction.

    “Nah – they just leave the goods lying around, Gaara, and I just use ‘em. Like how you outed yourself as a raider, and then keep moving to new threads and pretending it didn’t happen.”

    Much like how you go silent every time I ask you to deliver. Still awaiting those two pages of rage and baaaaw and the failure I clearly cannot live down.

    The Prok Star t-shirt should be full perms, so you should be able to save its texture to your hard drive and reupload it and apply it to the right clothing layer.

    Oh, and despite what Prok claims, Shaun Altman didn’t invent that shirt, it was made by the Electric Sheep who started sending it to anybody that Prokofy trashed in her blog. Shaun just made it popular by wearing it a lot.
