TV Company Seeks Virtual Lovebirds

My contact Zoe Dobson, Series Producer at back2back productions ltd, has contacted me again for assistance in getting in touch with romantic couples in the virtual worlds.

This time the production company is looking for couples that fall into either of the following two categories.

A) Are you about to meet up in RL for the first time?

TV Documentary makers for Sky TV are looking for couples who are about to meet up in real life for the first time.

We are hoping to demystify MMORPG^* relationships for a wider audience and show that relationships that form in-game, can indeed be genuine relationships that can move into the real world very successfully!

If you are interested in finding out more, please email zoe.dobson@back2back.tv.


B) Are you getting married this Summer in the UK?

TV Documentary makers for Sky TV are looking for couples who met in Second Life and are about to get married in real life.

We are hoping to demystify MMORPG relationships for a wider audience and show that relationships that form in-game, can indeed be genuine relationships that can move into the real world very successfully!

If you are interested in finding out more, please email zoe.dobson@back2back.tv.

Have You Found Love In SecondLife?

My mentor in the craft of blogging Eddi Haskell is running a new poll on his blog Eddi Haskell's Second Life where he asks "Have you ever fallen in love with someone you have met in Second Life?"

You will find the poll in the top right hand corner, go there and answer truthfully!.

Stupid Git #4

This is Bock McMillan, SecondLife avatar and blogger. If you´re interested you will find his blog here.

This avatar and the man behind him are really totally clueless.

When the avatar was first rezzed in SecondLife his owner considered himself to be a down-to-earth and rational human being, believe it or not. Well, as we all now know all too well by now, this avatar believes he fell in love with another male avatar that he met in the virtual world.

We all know that it cannot be real love because they never met each other in real life, don´t we? Because for a love based in cyberspace to become real the persons must meet in real life. If they don´t meet its just "virtual love" and we all know that´s not at all the same thing. After all the term "virtual" has been defined as "that which is not real" but may display the salient qualities of the real. So it goes without saying if it´s only virtual it is a fantasy, a figment of this losers all too vivid imagination.

To make matters even worse this Bock avatar then claims that the other avatar - or the person behind it - died. Huh, what do we think of that? What does death mean in a virtual world anyhow?

How do we actually know that the other geezer just didn´t dump this whining loser? Sure he claims he was in contact with the other guy til the end and with the guys family and everything, but that most likely was the other guy and his friends acting. He is just so naive!

He probably just got dumped in an extravagant way. The so called lover is probably still around having the time of his life with an alt and with reading this blog from time to time. Hilarious!

And even if it was true that he did die, it´s been 10 months now. Get over it and move on! After all, you never really met him in real life - so how bad can it be?

That´s it folks, enough with the stupid gits. I have to get ready for Elfay´s party soon.
