Luneko's New Resident Toolkit
From SLaggieWiki
|
The following encyclopedic resource guide was written by Lucrezia Lamont and can be obtained free at her small shop, Luneko, on Necros. Lucrezia has graciously granted permission for its posting on the SLaggie Wiki.
Tiopete Renard has compiled the kit from Lucrezia’s notecards, substituting descriptive titles for the many landmark links which can be activated in-world.
Thanks so much, Lucrezia! And thanks to all her contributors.

[edit] Luneko NEW SL RESIDENT RESOURCE KIT
The latest version can always be found here: Necros (249,34,49) Hello, hello. This note is a bit long winded, but please bear with me and read it fully. My name is Lucrezia Lamont and while I've only been in SL since early 2007, I had a bit of rough go of it at times (thanks to the wonderful people who helped me out -- you know who you are).
I originally created this kit a short time after my arrival and now I'm updating it, being perhaps a little older and maybe a little wiser! Although I still have lots to learn -- we always do, here -- I'll continue to update this kit so long as it's useful (a few of you keep handing the thing out, so that's encouraging). A very special thank you to everyone who assisted with the contents of this kit -- you're all truly amazing and helpful people... you're what SL is all about.
What the "New SL Resident Resource Kit" is NOT:
It's not loaded with freebies -- many freebies are either stolen, or really not worth the box they were shoved in; sorry to say. I do list several Landmarks for freebie stores that you can acquire on your own and that are reflective of your interests and tastes.
What the "New SL Resident Resource Kit" is:
* A few helpful items to "get you going" (i.e. hair certificates, and essential tools). * Quick Tips & How Tos (I suggest reading these in the order they are presented). * Guides Direct from the SL Forums. * Landmarks for places to explore, shop, meet others, get help and obtain freebies. * A list of places to obtain free hair, skin etc. for those who are specifically less than 30 days old. * Additional notecards of information as supplied by others that may be of interest to some new residents.
It's up to you to discover what SL will be for you. For everyone it's different. The contents of this kit are intended to serve as possible pathways and may not be useful to everyone. If you do come across some resources that you feel should appear here, please inform me. This kit is only possible due to the input of other residents. Second Life is what you make it -- what do you want it to be for you? And if you don't know, it will find you through your constant explorations. In fact, SL is cheaper, and often more effective, than a therapist ;-) I can only encourage: having an open mind,don't be quick to make decisions or jump to conclusions, and be reasonably cautious.
Please do visit the official Second Life Internet forums particularly the "Resident Answers" section. And finally, you may also wish to find answers in the Second Life Knowledge Base.
If you are an experienced SL resident and have some landmarks or information you feel should be included in this kit, please send them my way and I'll incorporate them in the next release.
Have a super day and enjoy SL!

- Butterfly Tea, Black Art (248,4,56) -- there is a tea house where you can
change, if you like, and also relax.
[the above "links" are Landmarks to my personal lands and one (Sensi's) nearby that is public -- click to go there, sit somewhere comfortable, and begin reading through this kit in tranquility]
And finally, a note regarding description conventions. The following are naming and descriptive conventions for interfacing with SL as explained in my notecards. Main SL menu = File, Edit, View, World, Tools, Help, Client, Server <keyboard key(s)> [clickable button or region of dialog box] click Button> Option> Suboption = left click each Button and Option in sequence (including buttons, tabs, check boxes, radio buttons and text fields).
