Reader feedback forum (well, almost)

We do not yet have a normal forum, but this is a start. Comments below are submitted by you, the anonymous surfers that we have never met and can't possibly answer for... So we don't answer for anything that is posted here, but love feedback . And, of course, we do reserve the right to edit the entries.

Topic: Issue#15 Submitted by: Amarillo Goliath

et alors, peut-etre en francais, un jour?

Topic: General Submitted by:

Read/skimmed through issue #15. I liked it; it seems pretty decent. The AgeLock article was most interesting. Also, found a couple places to check out in-world.
Feedback: Stop using PDF! It absolutely sucks for reading content on the web for numerous reasons. I hope you already know why. Just saying for your own benefit: I bet you are losing readers because of PDF.
Also, it's Linden Lab (singular), not Linden Labs. ref: LindenLab.com

Topic: General Submitted by: Stefan Humfree, Canada

Great reading! I've been looking for something serious about Sl, and then I found your mag... looks great!

Topic: General Submitted by: Stephen Hilra

Hello,
I just spent my Saturday morning reading all of your back issues and current one.
This is a great magazine, and I hope you continue to put out issues because I will read everyone I can get my eyes.
Thanks & best wishes to you and you staff.

Hello there!
When will the next issue be published?

Topic: General Submitted by: Tid Kidd

As a new writer in SL (but a published writer in RL) I submitted an article by the deadline for the next (Voice Chat) issue. NO-ONE from the magazine has been in touch with me, either to acknowledge the article, or to ask for changes, or simply to reject it.
If this is the way you treat prospective writers, then really, you are unprofessional, and shouldn't be editing any kind of publication. Simple courtesy and respect don't cost anything.
I will find another magazine to write for. I'm sure The Konstrukt has competition.

Topic: General Submitted by: Attacus Vollmar

Just stumbled upon The Konstrukt at work while browsing SL member websites. The magazine has the feel and appearance of a professional publication, but, as mentioned in some of the previous feedbacks, there are still way too many typos and grammatical errors.
BUT, keep up the good work! SL needs The Konstrukt.

Please check with Linden Labs whether the 4 Linden names who seem to have signed your protest page so far are genuine.
The possible authenticity is extremely interesting, as it makes a big difference conceptually if Philip (in particular) is against his own company's new ToS.

Hello! Good Site! Thanks you! aqudvhxtbndk

Topic: General Submitted by: Changing rooms

There doesn't seem to be any information where one may alter one's appearance!
Changing clothes is very difficult if one doen't have money, nor any indication where the changing room facilities are.
Can this be remedied?

Topic: General Submitted by: JamieLynn Ballinger

I picked up copies of your publication at the ITE expo last month, but didn't get around to opening them until tonight. I was delighted with what I discovered! Unlike the vast majority of resident responses I read in Linden's Official Blog, which are usually ill-informed and over-emotional rants, your editorials and articles are intelligent, well thought out, make excellent points, and provoke me to think and ponder about the state and future of SecondLife. You have aimed well and have hit the mark. Congratulations! And thanks for a publication that can be a great contribution to we SL residents. I eagerly look forward to future issues!

the same as the TP possibility.
so click on the board and you'll get a info card

Topic: General Submitted by: Excellent concept :-)

Dear Konstrukt-ppl
Just wanted to pay my tribute to the initiative of running this magazine. I couldn't tell for sure, but I sense that SL (or other virtual worlds) will grow very fast into serious social-tools for both learning, communication and even development in general. However I suffer from cocky friends and other IA-ppl stating, that SL is nothing more than a game about sex and nakedness. I sincerely hope it shows it true potential soon, and with this mag, I think you help carry it in that direction. Thanks alot :-)
Yours

Please!!!
Faites des traductions en fran�ais! (et aussi les autres langues), je ne connais que tr�s peu l'anglais.

Topic: Issue#7 Submitted by: Anon

Hi there,
Congrats on a great effort with the magazine, I enjoy it.
Just some constructive criticism: please get a qualified editor or sub-editor. Typos are still quite common and there's some very mangled grammar and sentence structure.
Otherwise, keep up the effort!

I would suggest you have an RSS feed on your site, for those of us who have way too many favorites and would like a poke when its time to come here and look for a new issue.

Topic: General Submitted by: xander pooraka

hello, i'm xander pooraka, and i use second life as a great social learning tool, being that i have highly functioning autism, its rather great and has made me less scared about approaching/connecting with people in real life, i should like to write an article about it for your mag if you wish....my email is elmosexwhistle@hotmail.com or just contact xander pooraka in gameworld :)

Topic: General Submitted by: gatinho beleza

First off, I like what you are trying to do here. I agree with it, and would like to help further your cause.
Secondly, for the love of God, learn how to spellcheck. It's difficult to take you seriously until then.

Topic: Issue#6 Submitted by: Z.Witherspoon

Ahhh what a relief..I just read issue 6 on children in SL ..so true and is a bit enlightening to know that someone also has seen through the little buggers..I myself have previously owned and operated one of those Adoption Agencies where the Christmas Kids..(coughs) tend to run to...I decided to take a different approach I relocated and moved with no ads in place right before Christmas....this broke many of the little scammers dreams ..I did notice an over abundance of children as Christmas time drew close..many were new avvies and always portaying themself as sick needy or lonely child..I had one even RP a puking (gross).Here is a bit to think on ...I didnt have anything to lose or gain by moving my agency..but many agencies profited big time and adopted out many of these children for a pretty hefty SL fee....what kills me is the owners knew good and well what was going on..and sat back and took advantage of the situation..some even reopened knowing what a profit Christmas would bring...I have since passed on my agency to my coworker until I am ready to deal with all the grief that comes with adoption in SL..(margaritas on a beach for me)Word of Advice for any SL parent reading this watch how fast kids start to recycle..same kids you adopt at Christmas time will move on in about 2 weeks and start prepping for Easter..(frowns) worst thing is they will be recycled through the same agencies you trusted and paid fees too.....selling avvies to gain profit and recycling them to gain even more...hmm interesting thought huh?

Topic: General Submitted by: Richard

I like the game so far, I just think that if you go water you should ran out of air at some point. I guess this is not a game you die on.

Topic: Issue#3 Submitted by: Leo Zelmanov

Didn't like that the article I was reading was continued on a much later page.

First of all, Good Luck to theKONSTRUKT people for your project!
I suggest you to provide direct PDF links. It makes magazine download easier.
SL residents that use Linux cannot open webpages by clicking on objects. If you're talking to Linden Labs please ask them to speed up the Linux client fix process. That would made easier for us Linux users to download theKONSTRUCT ;-)
