New to Second Life

[waratahh]

 Hey, my first post here. We'll i've recently signed up for second life and kinda got myself started, but i can't say i've got any friends yet. I also need a job, seeing i have no money.  I'd appreciate it if i could get some help starting out in Second Life.

I've walked in both fur and skin so I've got a dual perspective on things.

Not to be a damp rag about it, but it's pretty much a case of to get a good job, you need a lot of either RL or SL experience, a good skin/av, great wardrobe and a history of being on the grid for several months. Otherwise what you're looking at are really low paying escort jobs or dance clubs. Which is alright if you want to sell cybersex [or, if your a furry, it's called yiffing].

Trust me, it's a lot easier to just pay for the Lindens you want and find new avs, clothing, etc from freebie sites, Midnight Mania boards or joining in treasure hunts. I've been on the grid for 3+ years and have probably tried just about every way to 'earn lindens'. 'Earn Lindens' taking surveys is often a scam, camping takes forever for just a few L.

In the end you'll have to decide what you want to do with you time and how much it's worth you.

*sees name* Better sine yo pitty on the runny kine...

But I could prolly help with something, somewhere.. I know a few people and might be able to land you a job at a club doing something. You could also do builds on your own, or by commission, which is always pretty rewarding.

The club my mate manages is looking for hosts, dancers and DJ's! You can contact him and leave him a message, his name is Pipe Nerd. I'm Kitt Calliope in-world. :3 If you're not ready to jump into a job yet you could just come hang out and meet people at the club too. Tangent is a lot smaller and interactive than a lot of the huuuuuge clubs. We don't wake up until about 6pm SLT though. ;3
