Some use their inworld profiles to give accurate indications of their proclivities.<br /><br />Ceka's giggling shtick would def filter me out....and good for her...she prolly wouldn't like me.<br /><br />Good for me too....schoolgirl giggling about the weather...is about as de-tumescent as it gets..so we have both avoided an unpleasant waste of time.<br /><br />I find it interesting though...how we use and apply these filters...when one is new in a virtual world...they tend to be broad and lacking in definition...as our hunger for new experiences dictates the flow of the game.<br /><br />As one learns that not every new experience is a good experience...one tends to refine these filters.<br />Writing about it can sound like an exercise in transactional analysis...where one can can closely monitor debits and credits.<br /><br />But for me the experience is more akin to Jazz...a free-flowing riffing....ensemble and solo flow together seamlessly. Well...lol...that is the good encounters anyway. They dont always go down this way.<br /><br />But the ability to improvise, definitely plays a part in this...which means being open to hints...subtle cues...the shape the encounter wants to aim towards. <br />Flowing between directing this shape...and somewhat surrendering to it.<br /><br />That Sl takes away some of the obvious cues, present in RL...represents the challenge....and ultimately the fulfillment when it works out right.<br /><br />As I have mentioned previously to Lee...I can sit in a place like Lars...and read 50 profiles without contacting anyone...so hunger and need must still operate within filters.<br /><br />I would also add...that these filters are not written in stone...and are amenable to change. <br />What you desire 1 week/month/year...may not what be what you desire on another occasionorfeuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05240050445596377080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7914999451703979201.post-31344205336335470762011-08-06T17:49:55.770-07:002011-08-06T17:49:55.770-07:00Throw one of your lines at her.
