[10:01 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: People seem to arrive late and depart early. Please don’t be offended but as leader I will try to keep the meeting going. We don’t repeat things for latecomers – a log is posted on our blog after the meeting. This is not a place for public debate – this is a helpful place. we all help each other slive an aquatic lifestyle.
[10:01 AM] Marion Sopwith (marion698): tala peaches
[10:02 AM] Peaches2U Camino: uaaaaaaay
[10:02 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: Because we usually have good attendance – please take a moment to remove all extra attachments and huds. We’d like you to dress low lag. Big poofy hair and jewelry are big culprits, as are bubbles, script things, huds, and such. If we all cooperate, more merfolk can participate with less crashing. Thank you for your help with this.

[10:16 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: Perks include helping the group and being allowed to post ads in the group twice a day. Add in the fact that anyone can ask for the stick and that is great exposure.

[10:26 AM] Peaches2U Camino: another topic
[10:26 AM] Peaches2U Camino: there has been a change to Flickr
[10:26 AM] Peaches2U Camino: errr
[10:26 AM] Peaches2U Camino: a few changes
[10:26 AM] Peaches2U Camino: but ONE affects mers a LOT
[10:26 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): elon didn’t want to buy it right
[10:26 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): HMM
[10:27 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): is it a nudity rule
[10:27 AM] Peaches2U Camino: regular accounts cannot post pics with just nip covers
[10:27 AM] Peaches2U Camino: it has to be a top
[10:27 AM] Peaches2U Camino: even though there are bum floss bikinis that cover LESS than two shells
[10:27 AM] Ohora Sessa (cathy.jackson): Hmm
[10:28 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): this goes into extremely subjective territory
[10:28 AM] Peaches2U Camino: not a bit of nip can show, or it blocks the maturity rating to a higher level
[10:28 AM] Peaches2U Camino: true
[10:28 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): better safe than sorry, in almost every case
[10:28 AM] Peaches2U Camino: I have a paid flickr account, but the price INCREASES quite a BIT
[10:29 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): I’ve never believed in trying to flex “personal freedom to show tiddies”
[10:29 AM] Peaches2U Camino: even then, am unable to take pics of you beautiful peeps, that are showing lovely mer skin
[10:29 AM] Peaches2U Camino: so if you wondered why your pic was never posted on my flickr
[10:29 AM] Peaches2U Camino: sorry, that is the reason
[10:29 AM] Ohora Sessa (cathy.jackson): Then I am probably screwed
[10:30 AM] Peaches2U Camino: oh you guys make me drool, wearing my fave colors and such
[10:30 AM] Peaches2U Camino: just not able to post stuff that would make some tentacles cover territory
[10:30 AM] Peaches2U Camino: https://www.flickr.com/photos/160267020@N04/52236488465/in/dateposted/
[10:30 AM] Peaches2U Camino: i do get away with as muc as i can
[10:30 AM] Peaches2U Camino: any questions?
[10:31 AM] Alicia (aliciatessa): That’s quite a pity, I’ve read that were coming some changes to flickr, but I never tought to the point of “seashell bikini being NSFW”
[10:31 AM] Peaches2U Camino: ikr
[10:31 AM] Peaches2U Camino: another bit of unfairness
[10:31 AM] Peaches2U Camino: my pics do NOT get flagged as fast as an unpaid account
[10:32 AM] Miranda Barrowstone rolls eye “they must have hired Disney’s standards and practices people.”
[10:32 AM] Peaches2U Camino: the bot does not know male nips from female, half the time
[10:32 AM] Hiroko Nubalo: lol
[10:32 AM] Alicia (aliciatessa): I just have a couple as mermaid and I’m unpaid, but I’ve not been flagged yet
[10:32 AM] Peaches2U Camino: not sure if they are touching any pics already in the stream
[10:32 AM] Peaches2U Camino: just new ones
[10:32 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): ooh if they flag male nips by bot, that’s gonna be a toughie
[10:33 AM] Peaches2U Camino: i havve been strategic with seaweed and stuffs
[10:33 AM] Peaches2U Camino: ikr
[10:33 AM] Peaches2U Camino: already happened to a friend
[10:33 AM] Ohora Sessa (cathy.jackson): I do cover quite a bit but it’s with seashells and pearls
[10:33 AM] Peaches2U Camino: they blocked his account, and he had to contact to get it back
[10:33 AM] Celtic Infinity: eeeps
[10:33 AM] Peaches2U Camino: his is unpaid
[10:33 AM] Peaches2U Camino: and he did not feel like loosing it for nothing
[10:34 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): 🙁
[10:34 AM] Peaches2U Camino: any other questions?
[10:34 AM] Celtic Infinity: I have an unrelated question for Peaches.

[10:35 AM] Peaches2U Camino: yeah, the feet are me tired of being late^^
[10:35 AM] Alicia (aliciatessa): Just one, for depressing as it is, flagging the pics as moderate instead of “for all the family” is enough to keep the censor block away?
[10:35 AM] Miranda Barrowstone: okay while I bri…er give fina more shrimp Hiro make your comment
[10:35 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): does that require signing in though
[10:36 AM] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): =^.^= Nahm Nahm Nahm!

This meeting is now adjourned. Remember our SWF goals:

  • to assist those considering an underwater life
  • to increase awareness in the general public that there is an underwater option
  • to make mer resources (events, projects, groups, retailers, sims, designers) visible and easily accessible
  • to assist, as possible, with the viability of mer resources so they may continue to be available to the community
  • to promote the conservation of rl oceans, lakes and waterways and the nature that relies on them

Now go mingle and explore! Thanks for joining us this day!!
