Oh wait… [10:05] Definitely Not Miranda shuffles her script and looks confused [10:06] Definitely Not Miranda: De-lagging: Because we usually have good attendance, it would be ace if you could remove extra attachments and HUDs, such as big poofy hair with resizers still in them, scripted weapons, bitcoin miners, advertising spammers, griefer HUDs, bling jewellery from 2009 etc… [10:06] Definitely Not Miranda: So without further ado, let’s do everyone’s favorite part of the meeting!

Do we have any new merfolk? If you are new, say hi! No need for IMs or speakers order, just a few words will do. We’re interested to know maybe how you found SWF? Is there anything you love about being aquatic? What’s your favorite food – mine’s shrimpie snacks btw, and Antiquity’s kelp cakes are also bomb! Oh wait… I digress =^-^=
[10:14] Definitely Not Miranda: If any of you have brought a guest with you today, yay! You can also introduce them, if they’re okay with it. If you’re shy and don’t prefer the spotlight, that’s okay too. Some of us prefer to just come and chill out in the company of their fellow aquatics… =^-^=
[10:15] Xenon Darrow (radon.noble): Not new – just BACK. Love exploring and finding amazing places to swim and play! And Iove being places where humans don’t expect to see a mer in the wild

[10:22] Munin (darm.yaffle) eyes the stick….

[10:25] Hazel (dolly.waifu): Hi! So mine’s kinda silly.
[10:26] Hazel (dolly.waifu): I go swimming in Blake Sea a lot. For those who do also, is it common for you guys to be asked to enter strange men’s boats? ^^;
[10:26] Hazel (dolly.waifu): Happens to me all the time. Was wondering if that was normal.
[10:26] Cecily Tamagotchi-????ère (cecily.muircastle): /dies

[10:27] Hazel (dolly.waifu): I usually make some excuse. It just seems that the sirens’ song is quite compelling for many!
[10:27] Cecily Tamagotchi-????ère (cecily.muircastle): I’ve had a few people want to make me into sashimi, but I suspect it is because you’re so pretty ?
[10:27] Munin (darm.yaffle): Not common for me, but then i don;t fit in most strange mens boats so… also a boy dragon so there is that
[10:27] Hazel (dolly.waifu): Eep!

[10:28] ?????? ??s???? (neve.nebula): the leggers at Siren’s are generally not quality leggers :X But, if you want a laugh, turn on voice and listen to the conversation, it’s often completely RIDICULOUS.
[10:28] Definitely Not Miranda: they need bigger boats Munin
[10:28] Hazel (dolly.waifu): Oh yes, love to hear all the voice chatter there!
[10:28] Hazel (dolly.waifu): Anyway, that’s all~ Thank you!

.
Pearl is a recoloring of my “Abalone” tail in an iridescent opal texture. Its a perfect compliment to the original tail and super nice for light, airy mer looks. My Store avi, Jet – is wearing the tail now with the custom included mats here for you to see.
.
After this weekend, the tail will return to the normal price of Abalone, so snag while you can.

[10:48] Xenon Darrow (radon.noble): Tala Chris
[10:48] Definitely Not Miranda: our FIFTH speaker is… please put our fins together for NERISSA!!
[10:48] Definitely Not Miranda: and tala Chris =^-^=
[10:48] Nerissa (killerwing): Big post incoming that I already copy-pasted.
[10:48] Nerissa (killerwing): Tala everyone! I’d like to talk about an RP sim I wandered into about a week ago. Main reason I wanna talk about it is because the mer option is a good option there!
The sim(2 sims large) is called Arendia and it’s an RP sim that uses an RP HUD for stats and rolls.
Yes this means this isn’t a freeform RP sim when it comes to things like combat. And I admit that it’s not something I was fond of at first, but I realized that Arendia struck an interesting balance because everyone gets to spend a nice amount of points in the available stats to build up their character, meaning new players aren’t completely worthless vs a veteran player.
The sim is overall VERY active with a lot of people present all the time. It also has a Discord group(which I find to be a handy thing for communications when not in SL).
And yes, there’s a rather well active and decent amount of mers(and other seafolks) on the sim too. The sim also has a generous amount of space for mers as well!
Honestly it reminds much of the time I spent
[10:48] Nerissa (killerwing): RPing in the old Mystara RP sims, so this is honestly a great place to consider if you’re into fantasy RP and wanna RP as a mer.
The can be reached at: Thiaria (115,178,2967)
[10:48] Chris McCracken: tala
[10:49] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): oo RP sim
[10:49] ?????? ??s???? (neve.nebula): WOWZERS that’s some traffic on that sim right now – active as heck. 57 on one sim, 13 on the other.
[10:49] Hazel (dolly.waifu): Wow!
[10:49] F??? ?? (sapphira.franizzi): Cheeky’s snooping it already
[10:49] ?????? ??s???? (neve.nebula): lmao, you know it 😀
[10:50] Nerissa (killerwing): Naturally most of the people on that sim aren’t mers, but don’t let that discourage you. I can assure you mers are quite active on there.
[10:50] ????????? (juicy.cerise): Thats not a bad thing though, I mean, we do have to eat something
[10:50] Definitely Not Miranda: tala Eisenwald
[10:50] Eisenwald Easterwood (eisenwald): tala.
[10:50] Xenon Darrow (radon.noble): yes, Tempestra! SNAX! Besides, it is fun for peeps to stumble upon mers in the wild. A treat!
[10:51] Nerissa (killerwing): On their landing zone there’s some links to a website that can give some lore information as well as rules information. And of course as i mentioned, there’s the Discord you can join where you’ll find good activity.
[10:51] Nerissa (killerwing): That’s basically all I wanted to talk about. Thanks for listening!
[10:51] Hazel (dolly.waifu): Thanks for sharing!
[10:51] Peaches2U Camino: woooooooooooooooot
