Daisy and Str's Collar Ceremony Wedding

With a strict dress code of naked, the wedding party and guests enjoyed the surroundings and view of this lovely Adam and Eve themed wedding. Queen Daisy surprised Str with a collaring ceremony instead of a traditional wedding. Afterall, Daisy and Str are anythign but traditional.  Afterward we enjoyed the romantic songs supplied by the wedding hosts and DJ.  It was certainly a day to remember!

The Wedding party: Beavs, Katarina, Tagthis, Freya, Daisy, Str, Romeo, Griffith, Christophe

Spotlight On: Prince and Princess Group

Tar Garnburg joined Divine August 28, 2009.  He is in charge of the Dukes and Duchess group. He has created the Royals Gallery in front of the castle.  He was once the youngest royal and also the first deaf royal.

Valerie Firethorn joined Divine August 19, 2010.  She is currently in charge of the Viscount and Viscountess group.  She is a voracious hunter and known for her loyalty to the clan.  Val is known as the Firekitten and loves to lick everyone in chat!

Christophe Stratten joined Divine April 27, 2009.  He is a fantastic builder having created our naughty pool area and orgy platform.  Notice a theme here?  A former stripper and club owner, he is in charge of the Lords and Ladies group which host the events for the clan.

Bumper Cars!

Lord Edward Divine held his first event recently at the fun fair platform.  We had a great time crashing into one another and eliminating the competition!  Edward declared we were all winners and awarded everyone who attended with the prize! A skybox! We sat around and chatted afterward since we were having so much fun and didn't want to leave. :-)

Thirsty Thursday: Blood Vial

The blood vial is a fun little product offered by Bloodlines for L$99.  The lycan version is also available as the lumen vial for the same price. The Blood Vial is a transferable vial that holds 0.25L of your blood. The Bloodlines system will track whose blood is in the vial, so you can give your blood as a gift, or collect and trade the blood of other vampires. You can wear it around your neck, and floating text will indicate whose blood it is, and anyone who clicks on the blood vial will get an instant message telling them whose blood is contained in the vial. In addition, a list on everyone's profile will show all of the lumen vials you've collected, and who the lumens belong to.
A Blood Vial filled with precious vital blood makes a great gift!

To wear your Blood Vial, right-click it in your inventory and select 'wear'. By default, it will attach to your chest. If you choose a different attach point, you will have to adjust the rotation and position of the vial. You can use the included pose stand to hold yourself still while you do this.
To use your Blood Vial, left-click it or "touch" it once you've worn it. You will be given a menu with the following options:

1. Check: tells you if the vial is full or empty, and if full, whose blood it is.
2. Text: toggles the floating text over the vial on or off if the vial is full.
3. Fill: bleed 0.25L of your vital blood into the vial.
4. Drink: drink the contents of the vial.
5. History: tells you the names of the last 25 owners of the vial.

The vial permissions are set to mod / transfer / no copy.

Naughty Santa

Brought back by popular demand, Naughty Santa is at the landing spot!  After sitting on his lap, you will be given a candy cane to wear.  He will ask you if you have been bad or good. Depending on your answer you will get coal or a gift! Freya has been very good this year and received a special gift!

Thirsty Thursday: Bloodlines Conflict Issues

The Bloodlines website addresses the issue of drama in a role playing environment. Some of the causes of conflict are:

 

• A soul being held 'hostage' for ransom or simply out of spite
• Clan arguments, conflicts, battles
• Minion defection or 'clan hopping'
• Disputes over hunting of humans, souls/blood etc.
• Anger over the sending of bite requests

      You can read more about their view of what causes these and how to deal with them on their game guide here.

In my 2+ years as a Bloodlines player and my many years of online gaming, I've learned a few things about people and their behavior within clans/guilds/hordes. I often say I look for the positive in each person I meet.  We welcome everyone into our clan with open arms and seek to help them and share the fun of SL with them. Then there are those few that LOVE to suck everyone into their hellish nightmare of drama. Here's my two cents:

•  Those who say they hate drama in their profiles are usually the ones that cause it.  (Thank you for pointing that out Lola!)
• If a player is in the Curse Horde, there is a reason for it.  Hunt in that group cautiously.
•  A problem player will show their true colors within the first few days if not minutes of joining.  Those that "don't belong" or fit in with the group will normally leave eventually.  Hopefully without causing much drama. Often the drama mongers will be back in Bloodlines on an alt causing trouble in yet another clan. They can't seem to stay away from the game.
• Communicating your concerns with a royal or other royals within your clan is essential for squashing the drama before it happens. Keeping an eye on whomever makes you all on the same page and support each other in a time of crisis or critical action.
• Keep notecards of conversations (within TOS of course!) so you can prove your point if ever needed.  We had an idiot once that denied his wrongdoings and at least seven us of had notecards that proved his bullshit. He certainly couldn't deny it then! And he did not get any sympathy from other clan members once he was booted with that kind of documentation.
