15:05 Ember (emberell) With that, I believe we are open for questions! Please feel free to ask anything on your minds!
15:05 ShenKu Firelight I have a question ... I am getting to the point where I am building things. Is there a way I can sell them in SL Marketplace WITHOUT having to purchase full SL Membership?
15:05 ShenKu Firelight Other people talk about their "stores" in the marketplace
15:06 Ember (emberell) Absolutely, Shenku. You can host most anything in the SL marketplace without needing a premium plan.
15:06 Ember (emberell) I do that myself.
15:06 Ember (emberell) Would you like some guidance on setting up a store?
15:06 ShenKu Firelight Probably ... I am completely NEWBIE in this category
15:06 ShenKu Firelight thanks
15:06 Ember (emberell) That's quite fine. There's a good overview of it here: https://community.secondlife.com/knowledgebase/english/selling-in-the-marketplace-r88/
15:07 ShenKu Firelight oh, wow ... thanks so much
15:07 ShenKu Firelight I will check it out
15:07 Ember (emberell) But basically, the only requirement is that you be older than five days in SL, and set up your shop on the marketplace. If you have an questions or trouble on the matter, please do feel free to return and ask
15:07 Ember (emberell) I've some experience with stores myself :-)
15:07 Ember (emberell) Other questions? ❤
15:08 ShenKu Firelight thank you for your help
15:08 Ember (emberell) Absolutely! We love questions here ❤
15:09 Ember (emberell) Please do feel free to ask questions - if we haven't any further, we may wrap early today
15:09 Ember (emberell) Today is all about any questions, curiosities, or even just idle announcements anyone may have ❤
15:09 ShenKu Firelight oh, boy ... that was fast
15:09 ShenKu Firelight I would like to announce that ....
15:10 ShenKu Firelight I hope everyone can have a wonderful Holiday this week
15:10 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Beware of flying puns....
15:10 Agatha Macbeth looks for Sandie
15:10 Ember (emberell) This the season of puns :-)
15:10 ShenKu Firelight there ... I announced it ...
15:10 Stranger (crazyhorse9696) I really have no questions, i'm so new that i don't know what to ask :))
15:10 Ember (emberell) And well, likewise, Shenku. I hope your holiday season is quite delightful
15:10 Gronk Seriman Ember, I believe you were involved with the campus tour yesterday. How did it go?
15:10 Ember (emberell) That's quite fair, Stranger! Have you had a chance to prod through our orientation on campus?
15:11 ShenKu Firelight its not as if you are a STRANGER ... feel free to ask anything ...
15:11 Ember (emberell) I wasn't actually involved - Wordsmith hosted the tour. I hear it went swimmingly, though
15:11 Agatha Macbeth Who was touring?
15:11 Ember (emberell) I fixed an issue with the teleporter up to the CAT landing for him
15:11 Gronk Seriman Ah, good!
15:12 Ember (emberell) The Virtual Worlds Education Roundtable [Actually, it was a group from The Science Circle]
15:12 Agatha Macbeth Oh great
15:12 Stranger (crazyhorse9696) i've been through the campus and the orientation area, usually i come with very new residents here, it's much easier for them to understand
15:12 Ember (emberell) Teachers and students alike
15:12 Ember (emberell) From my understanding, a group from /me nods
15:12 Ember (emberell) Oh dear, my typing is a touch off, pardon me.
15:13 Ember (emberell) I do encourage you taking your time with SL. Figuring out where you may want to go, what you may want to do. I find that leads to the most interesting questions
15:13 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Ravelli and I were present. Monitoring the sim filling warning
15:14 Ember (emberell) How was it, Elfbiter?
15:14 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Maximum 19
15:14 Ember (emberell) nods
15:14 Stranger (crazyhorse9696) of course :) right now my biggest mystery is why doesn't the legacy male body have detachable hands and feet like the female one :))) i know, silly
15:14 Gronk Seriman ...and you have to remember SL is approaching nearly 20 years online. Lotsa bugs. Lotsa features. Lotsa history and lore. NOBODY knows everything about SL. Even the owners, the Lindens.
15:14 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) But it seems some participants crashed and then came back.
15:14 Ember (emberell) Honestly, I wouldn't know the answer to that one, Stranger :_)
15:14 Ember (emberell) But yes, there's -always- more to learn about SL
15:15 Ember (emberell) Well. any further questions? ❤
15:15 Stranger (crazyhorse9696) smiles widely
15:15 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) and things change over time and then may change back...
15:15 ShenKu Firelight thank you
15:15 ShenKu Firelight I think that is all for now
15:15 Ember (emberell) I do believe so
15:15 Ember (emberell) I'll let everyone go. Thank you all for attending!
15:15 Ember (emberell) IF there are any further questions occurring to you all as we file out, I'll linger around. ❤
15:15 ShenKu Firelight thank you fro having us
15:15 Ember (emberell) I'm always happy to answer.
15:15 Stranger (crazyhorse9696) Thank you for having us here
15:15 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Crawling into my RL bed
15:16 Ember (emberell) And remember! You're welcome back any time. Whether it's to ask questions, or just visit!
