In order to keep hunting fun for everyone, here are some tips to keep in mind:
- Don’t shout the location of the hunt prize in open chat. It ruins some people’s fun and pisses the designers off. If you’re hunting with a buddy, reveal the prize’s location in IM.
- Be courteous to the designers, models, and other store staff members. The designers are giving you a free product that they spent time making and that they could be selling you instead.
- If you don’t like the prize, keep the criticism to yourself. If you wanted that blue latex dominatrix outfit instead, then just go buy it. If you don’t like the prize, just delete it from your inventory!
- When you TP to a new location, step out of the way to let things rez. If everyone just stands there, avis will start piling up on top of each other and nobody will be able to move.
- Before you go hunting, bring down your ARC. “What’s ARC??” Avatar Rendering Cost. When you are wearing lots of prims (prim hair, shoes, HUDs, etc), you cause lag. When lots of ARCy avis get together in one place, you know what we call that? A lag-fest. Yeah, not fun. Here’s how to check your ARC: Advanced Menu > Rendering > Info Displays > Avatar Rendering Cost. You’ll see a little number above your head. This is your ARC. If your number’s in red, shed some of those pounds before taking off.
- Ask us about our free “Shadow Hunter” outfit that will let you shed all your prims!
