It was great to see so many new people in Second Life last night. I thought I would start a discussion to help all of the newbies the "rules" of Second Life (SL). I hope that others will help me build up a list.
-Please ask before sending a friend request. Genealogists are great people and would love to be your friend in SL, but it is nice if you ask before you send a friend request. This lets people know who and why someone is sending a request. We can probably figure it out in the genealogy universe of SL, but it is polite.
-If you bump into someone, say you are sorry. It's hard to learn the controls and we all were there at one time. Just act like you are in real life and if you run into someone ask forgiveness.
-If you need help, just ask. Someone will be sure to help.
-Don't keep apologize for not knowing how to do something. We know that you are learning and don't mind having to help.
Just a little list to get things started. Please add what I forgot.
