Mm. It's only been a day of experimenting with modelled physical space, and I have been aware of my reactions to it. I avoid crowds because they make my framerate go to hell - but I also avoid more than about four people in one place on mucks, nowadays.
I think I'm aware of it in 2L because it's often wrong. Is someone showing their back to me because they Don't Want To Talk, or because they're losing control of their character, or because all they're really seeing is the text scroll in one corner? Am I insulting someone without realizing it when I do the same thing? I'm chatting with someone off my camera and about twenty feet away but this makes no difference in the tenor of the conversation - or does it?
hey, Mx. Spider, how do you walk with all those legs?
With grace and beauty, of course, dear Mooncat. Bleep.
