work visa revoked?

ever had a business meeting with an important client in another country but you missed it because you were held up at the border? a lesson from me: if you work in a foreign country, don't break it's laws. you might think chewing bubble gum is not a big deal but in singapore it will land you in jail. we take freedom of speech for granted in the west, but in the backward kingdom of secondlife, people disappear just for asking the wrong question.

mood: sl is a game.

a second life extinguished?

it's starting to look like my second life is over. my controversial postings have resulted in my account being banned from the forum and being put on hold in sl. a forum ban is probably for the best, but the prok clause might be setting a really unfortunate precedent. is it time to find a new hobby?
