Ready Player One[edit]

Out of interest following a couple of recent edits, I looked for a decent reference suggesting similarities between Second Life and Ready Player One, and found this Forbes article. If anyone fancies using it, GG! I personally can't be bothered :) Fred Gandt · talk · contribs 22:50, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merger Proposal[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
The result of this discussion was merge (per WP:SILENCE). Sirfurboy (talk) 20:40, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I propose to merge Criticism of Second Life into this article.

The criticisms article has multiple issues as described by the templates on the page, but I think the biggest single issue is that it should not even exist. Second Life has this article. Criticism of Second Life belongs here. Both articles are in need of updates, and having two splits any editor effort across the two, and there may be duplication too. I believe combining both would create an article of appropriate length. -- Sirfurboy (talk) 20:52, 10 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Vycl1994, Atlantic306, Userafw, Waddie96, Jabberjaw, Anas1712, and Mccapra: As recent contributors to these pages, I wonder if you have a view on the above proposal. Thanks.

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

[edit]

The official blog for Second Life stated they have rolled out a new logo[1]. However I am not very familiar with updating company/business logos on Wikipedia, so if someone can point me in the right direction, or better yet doing it themselves(because I will probably mess it up somehow), that would be great! — Félix Wolf (talk | contribs) 01:06, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Some statements directly address the reader[edit]

Some pieces of text in the article directly point to the user without any quotation. I know that is a bad practice in this sort of writing, so I would like to know what we could do about this. -A Fluffy Kitteh | FluffyKittehz User Profile Page 22:32, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Metaverse?[edit]

Many recent articles about the Metaverse mention Second Life.

This might be useful over at the mess at the Metaverse topic. John Nagle (talk) 06:54, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The irony is that we Second Life oldtimers used 'Metaverse' and 'virtual world' as synonyms back in the mid-noughts. How naïve we were! — Gwyneth Llewelyn (talk) 23:26, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
