Interesting idea.... but I just don't understand why you'd want to 'mix' your SL with RL???

Oh well, as I said, interesting idea...

Re: Aussie population update - the decline continues

Due to time-zone differences, I find it very frustrating that many of the educations events and functions I would like to attend on a regular basis are on at 4am in my time zone, or at 1pm when I am at work.

Also, my broadband plan is not the fastest nor has the highest download quota - this tends to slow down my SL experience. By the last week of the month, I am barely online as I have run out of quota!

I am one of those people who has a clear demarcation between my RL identity and my SL avatar. There is no cross-over between the 2, nor would I ever want there to be.

No, I don't have anything to hide, or be afraid of, nor do I slink around dong nefarious things in SL.

Taking on a different persona in SL gives me the opportunity to explore who I am, play out roles and scenarios that I would be too inhibited or introverted to replicate in RL (no, NOT sex!)

This is a personal and private journey for me and my avatar and frankly, I would consider it a breach of my privacy to have my virtual name linked to my real life name - on par with you asking me for my bank PIN details.

I understand where Debbie was coming from in being bemused that someone took issue at a request to link RL and SL identities, but you also need to understand and accept that the other side of this argument is just as valid.
