Hi! I’m glad you liked Cake Walk. It seemed quite out of keeping with the surrounding builds so I was a bit worried that people wouldn’t enjoy it. Glad to see I was wrong.

Hi. I and some student were just waiting for the instructor of the 11AM textures class and was wondering if there will be a substitute of a reschedule?

Well, as far as I’m concerned the only thought that I had when Tateru mentioned herself as owner was “okay, that’s who LL will come down on when something hits the fan.”
I honestly find it just a touch wearying that people are still getting bent out of shape because Linden Lab in their infinite wisdom decided that groups require an “Owner”. Perhaps they should have called the role “first duck in the row”, or perhaps “nail sticking out of the deck.”
Can we please simply accept that it’s a function that could have had a better name but doesn’t.

Read my 1st life tab. I’m with NCI, and I’m talking to YOU.

Which is as always my goal, yes, and I hope that the same goal is shared by others.

Claiming ownership means claiming absolute power over anything that NCI dose without any form of oversight from the membership. Owner is not the ‘technical’ name, it has conitations that are not helpful. LL may want a single point of contact (and use the term ‘owner’ to refer to it), but that dose not mean the holder of that postion is the actual owner.

One of the issues LL have with in-world training organisations as regards certification, etc, is the single, all powerful, owner. If the owner loses interest, or makes a bad desicion, the organistion gose to the wall. We have seen this happen. By having a proper managment system, NCI can stand out from the rest and almost guarantee its continuance no matter who is ‘in charge’. NCI can also demonstrate that decisions are taken with proper consideration of the consquences.

It should not have been Carl’s NCI, it was never Gramma’s NCI, and it should not be Tateru’s NCI, it should just be NCI

I prefer trustee myself. Owner is the technical SL term. In time, of course, I hope to be neither.

I’m sorry Tateru but I have an issue with your claim to be the owner of NCI. The folk who own NCI are the teir doners and those who have worked hard to make NCI what it is now, they are the owners, the membership. LL may want a single point of contact (who they refer to as the ‘owner’), and there is no issue about that, but for you to claim that you now own NCI is, in my view, wrong. The most you can claim is trustee.

When Gramma stepped down due to health and the vindictiveness of a greifer, it was a shock to all of us, had we known the situation, action would have been taken.

I believe NCI will survive because folk believe in NCI.

I’ll say no more now as I’m not in a postion to do anything.
