I've been a resident of Second Life for almost 3 months now. It's an interesting place with many people to meet and sims to explore.
There are some great inworld creators too, designing a range of items for your avatar, from clothing, hair and eyes to furniture, houses and vehicles. There is something out there for everyone.
Many shops will provide free items ,or "freebies" as they are known inworld. Many groups also offer free items to their members, and are easy to join.
Shops have other incentives to increase traffic to their stores. Midnight Mania boards (or MM boards) offer an item for free, provided the target is met. All you have to do is click the board to register, and if enough people click the board before midnight SLT (second life time), the board "locks" and everyone who clicked will get the prize on offer. You can only click once per round, and receiving the prize depends on whether the board gets enough clicks to lock.
Stores also organise hunts as a way of increasing traffic. You get a start location and have to look for the hunt item which contains the prize that store has on offer and the location of the next store in the hunt. You work your way through the hunt teleporting to stores and finding the prizes until the hunt is complete.
Hunts are a great way to obtain free items, explore new shops and sims, and meet new people, and occupy a significant amount of my time in Second Life.
This is how my avatar looks at the moment:
The look accompanies my Demon Hunter persona, since I spent sometime hunting zombies in the Grimly’s Bloodbath and Beyond Zombie Apocalypse sim, as part of the Zombie Killers Hunt.
