One of the avatars in Second Life has created several waterfalls for our property. It takes a lot of time placing the prims in such a way as to create a nice water flowing object. One of the waterfalls is quite large and took her many hours to create it. All of us have tweaked and modified each other's work to improve the look. After all, we are learning.
The other day, we went in to practice building, when we discovered that someone had blown our large waterfall up. Yeh. Seriously. The entire top of the falls was destroyed and the rocks were blown around the area. Geesh. I just stared. Then, I started laughing. Amusing. Annoying. Ready for game-like combat. It's a game, the chant started in my head. It's a game. And someone else thought it was funny enough to do this.
Then the other day, I went in to upload some new textures, when we discovered that someone had scripted us into high heavens whenever we teleported on to the land. Geesh, another annoying problem. But then we discovered that someone had altered our land by taking the land mass out from below our warehouse! A good one. Another quick fix, and it was done.
Maybe a competitor in the whitewater rafting business? Or maybe we just pissed someone off with our company presence. Who knows? I just wish they would have communicated their annoyances before they demolished our work. Second Life is so interesting and creative. Luckily we had the entire waterfall in our inventory and we just replaced it in a flash. Hey... maybe they just thought our work stank!
