I'm Arbi, Arbitar, Arbitar Basiat, Mr. Basiat, Iirteria, Voltaic, Az, Azu, Azuruk, Azuruk Botha, Mr. Botha
Whatever you want to call me, I'm me, although I'm best known as simply Arbi.
If I can help you, let me know, I'd love to if I can.  I'm best at scripting related and protocol related questions (ie, how things work behind-the-scenes in SecondLife)
I always have tons of open projects.
Recently a Mentor, I'm more than willing to help you if you need it, you need only ask!

==SecondLife Profile==
==="2nd Life"===
"A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything." -Nietzsche (1844-1900)
I am a scripter and a programmer. It is what I do, it is what I love.  It does not mean I only do that, however; I am proficient in my many forms of representing what is on my mind, be it by code, by word, by construction, or by image.
My IMs can sometimes become capped by my scripts, please send notecards instead if it's critical.

==="Interests"===
I Want To: Build, Explore, Meet, Be Hired, Group, Sell, Build a dirigible with my mind.
Skills: Textures, Architecture, Modeling, Scripting, I stay crunchy in milk.
Languages: C#, C++, LSL, VB.NET, VB6, VBScript, PHP, HTML, ASP, English
==="Picks"===
===="- Avi"====
Avi Arrow assists with the operation of the Ivory Tower, and has been an excellent friend since I stepped foot in SL.
===="- Natleh"====
Natalie, in all of her various forms, has easily grown to be one of my best friends.
strictly platonic <3s to joo, natleh
===="- Avi Arrow"====
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Zoe/169/248/26
Avi is the kind of person you cannot properly sum up in words.  She does a bit of everything.  She's a great friend, and has been for nearly the whole time I've known her (my whole time in SL here), she's a great mentor when new residents fly over to her sandbox adjoining Natoma, she's a great person to go to for advice when you need it, and she's an excellent businesswoman, doing well in the land business right now.  Go Avi!
===="- Qindenoraque"====
A genius, here.
Adenoraque Qin is a dark individual, but very fun.
Telador and Games1 will be missed.  :*(
He's the person to call when Myst Island in SL is okayed.
===="-- Fissure"====
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Cecropia/146/171/502
Come pass by.
===="-- Scripting Spot"====
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Orwood/120/35/26
In my forever-present attempts to find a nice, different atmosphere to script, I created what is known only as "Scripting Spot".  There aren't many free prims, so the in name is what is best done on the land, but there are about 50 or so prims free for use.
Also open to the public, visit and enjoy the gesture-spam-free and quiet spot where you can actually get your thoughts together and script.
There are different script condition-testing land zones (noscript, nobuild, nopush, etc)
===="--- Quotes [1]"====
