Second Life anyone?

Just curious, does anyone here play Second Life? I started playing, & I have to say, it's great! (& I still haven't left the n00b island area yet!)

I'd love to get into Second Life, if only just because of all the funny furries.

Why haven't I? Beats me...College time constraints, I guess.

Do you need to disclose personal information and have a credit card to play the free version?

Ive looked at seond life, but never got round to doing anything

And i probably wont, because i will (a) either have no time to play it or (b) get really into it and stop going out

More likely a, i spend most of my time out of the house these days

Hm, well on the topic of MMO's, can anyone reccomend a good private WoW server? I want to play, but I don't want to pay (or share an account w/ my brothers)

It's no WoW, but <a href="http://www.kingdomofloathing.com">KoL</a> is fun in its own unique way. (I've got an account there, same name I use here.) It's packed with pop culture references, and doesn't cost one thin dime to play. (Unless you want to buy a Mr. Accessory, then it costs roughly 100 thin dimes.)

I'm actually getting tired of seeing people answer "I need a free MMORPG" with "get KoL." Kingdom of Loathing barely qualifies as a game at all, let alone a 3D massively multiplayer game world full of vibrant colors and etc, ala WoW.

Second life isn't a game, it's a money making scheme.

True dat, instead of a "game" it should be called a "3-D chatworld". In games you shoot stuff or jump on turtles and they pop out of their shells and all that fun stuff.

Corrected.

How is it a "game"?
There is no goal, nor competitive nature, nor anything fun about it...
It's primarily:
Virtual Chatroom
Money Maker
