 		LoveLump
Not sure if anyone's discovered this yet.
The SilverLadder(TM) and Badscaryplace(TM) pages found here http://www.silverladder.com/spring/whatissls/

are mimicking the LoveLump(TM) internet hoax.

Quote:
The LoveLump was an Internet hoax perpetrated by digital artist Christopher Ryan Moses. It is considered a hoax of exposure.

Moses created a fictional company, Erotech Industries, which claimed to have developed a bio-engineered sex toy, combining male and female genitals, breasts, and buttocks in a compact package. The LoveLump was allegedly created using a combination of animal and vegetable DNA, thus creating the first ever living tissue sex toy. The hoax website stated that it had to be injected with nutrients in order to keep it alive, and it had a stated life span of 5-7 years.


You can see the original LoveLump(TM) FAQ that is almost identical to the SilverLadder(TM) FAQ here: http://www.kickthebobo.com/erotech/FAQ.html

I am new to SL and already deeply involved.
Hello all! I've only been into Silverladder for a few weeks, but I'm already hooked and have read the majority of this site. So firstly, i wanted to introduce myself. I'm Heartoffocus.
Secondly, I wanted to quote this myspace message I got from Two of Hearts. I did a search and didn't see an earlier post of it so I was wondering if anyone has gotten something like this before.

I got another e-mail from Two of hearts.
I posted two threads up about this myspace message:

Since receiving that myspace message, I got an e-mail, also from Two of Hearts.

Quote:


i wasn't kidding when i said the things i did to you on myspace. as a
deck, as a whole, we are about art, information, chaos, and love. some
people grasp one of the concepts firmly, but the others escape them. you
seem to appreciate all four, including the randomness and non-linerar
nature of chaos.

what stands out the most however, is love, and the source of your love.
you are driven by something very good, and you make it clear. your
willingness to love others that many reject speaks volumes.

and if you appreciate music as much as you seem to, you've found a home
here... wherever "here" is. ask the others about the music thus far. it
drives us.

welcome. we've been waiting for you.

2h (jane)


I know about the possible Radiohead connection, and the fact that they play a number of different songs, my favorite of which is White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane. But is there anything Else I should know about the music, which supposedly drives them?

 		Welcome Baka!
I reviewed your profile I hope you don't mind.
welcome baka vaka. Very Happy


i hope you don't mind but that message from 2H causes me to analyze your profile. I'm not sure if anyone else received a similar message, I have not.

Your profile is pretty neat. The reoccurring themes that I see prominently in your MS profile are:

God (religion)
Teaching
Acceptance (of everyone/everything), possibly Love
Music (Music = life)
Friendship

Now, there is a also a Radiohead song "15 Step" playing. You also have a bunch of cool music that interest you like Bjork, Air (I <3 Astralwerks artists!), Thievery Corporation, etc (too long to list) but your music taste is awesome.

I suggest everyone check it out (I added you as a friend!)

Also, the email you got pretty much sums it up. Love, Information, Chaos, Art. The love connection though is pretty much why 2H would have emailed you I suppose rather than 2C.

There is a heavy music influence with bulletins they post containing videos by Bjork and Portishead so far and even the Radiohead connection. Someone else is keeping track of our Silverladder soundtrack (with all the music references so far, and damnit, I want a copy! lol)

Once again, welcome!

 		2C Gone?
So I took from the two new bulletins that we will not have the comforting personality of 2C around for a while, I was surprised to wake up today with no one posting about it, which makes me worry that I mistook this post as his goodbye out of context. If he is gone, he will be greatly missed, I know he was very influencial in getting me on board.

Not to worry. 'tis only for tonight, my dear. The Aces haven't silenced me... not yet, at least. It was good news. You will hear the voice of one of the thus-far silent Deuces soon. She will speak to all. We will point you in the right direction. As always, silverladder.com will provide the only accurate map.

I apologize if I worried you.

Much Respect,
2C (Jonah)


:p

However, it seems the card that will be speaking out is not 2D as we expected, but one of the girls.

2S, IF YOU'RE READING THIS, START GETTING TALKATIVE. I want everyone to see you're not mean or anything. ;_; ilu.

2H is someone I'm excited to hear from too, though. :3 She just doesn't have to prove she's nice or cool or anything.

 		I got the same idea, too. 2c looks and sounds like that was it, he played his part.

It's ok. the world doesn't end... and the game hasn't even begun yet.

Then again, (as always) I may be completely off base.

 		Hi all, I'm new and think this is extremely interesting, I've read all the threads and don't want to get too involved but I have some random ideas. Reading through, I think the suit that resembles Chaos should be kept an eye on, messages keep emphasizing its randomness and non-linearity almost as if they're warning you. And since Chaos as an element doesn't follow any rules...nor is bound to something...it seems odd for a part of an organization to represent Chaos. Not to spread dissent or discord, it's just something I noticed.

Also, there is an old Japanese proverb saying something like "even if a 9, never a 10", which states that ten is some kind of heavenly limit that should never be breached, for when the 10 cards get revealed...

Sorry if this is really stupid but it's just some ideas.
