Some are looking for a few "good" avatars…

Some days ago Linden Lab, well, Slaton Linden published a post in the Second Life Blogs asking for:

…a few good avatars to help us with a new ad campaign intended to bring the tremendous diversity and depth of the Second Life community to the forefront of more people’s minds…

Since i have a dirty mind once i read the post i so needed to parody it, i mean the example ad.

I wrote a long essay of 500 words about all this but was boring and possibly not all fair, so since i don’t want to bore you and i try to be as fair as possible i’ll try to express my ideas about this in short and clear ways. First, even i agree Second Life may seem to some people only a game, a place to have virtual sex or to grief i agree the other side of Second Life, the one of artists, educators, musicians, creators… should be promoted and make public. But since both sides are the real SL if they want to show the diversity they should consider an ad in the style of the one i made.

Second, they will find a problem since most of the SL residents prefer to keep privacy at some levels, and if they look for people in Facebook where the TOS clearly forbid to create accounts for “not real people” like avatars they will find only a small representation of the diversity they want to show. So even all together may be a good idea and i hope it works to bring new people to Second Life i think opening the discussion inside the SLblogs would be better than doing it in Facebook. Also i wonder… will those “good avatars” get paid for giving his both images for an ad? Because if they pay enough i can show whatever they want!!! *joking*
