About Strife

Synopses

Strife is an avid scripter, wiki author and SL forum denizen. Not content in selfish information gathering he shares what he knows through various mediums, so that others may benefit and learn. He volunteers his time to work on many public projects which include: giving scripting advice, writing LSL documentation, providing and improving LSL scripts and libraries.

SL Status

Strife currently has a part time job, soon to be more fully employed and back in SL. After a catastrophic computer failure in the summer of 2008 and subsequent upsetting of housing situation found it ever more difficult to get online.

Honors

Through his public works Strife became a pillar of the SL community.

Strife is a Hippo award winner, awarded "Best Community Organizer" in the 2007 Linden Lab Innovation Awards, and here is his mention as a runner-up in the 2008 "Best Documentation" category: "Last year's winner, Strife Onizuka, continued to be insanely prolific, with thousands of edits over the past year.... Anyone learning LSL is almost certainly indebted to Strife's work in some way."

Own Words

I'm an immigrant from URU. Was in all 3 of it's beta's.

Wiki Gnome (causing drama isn't why I'm here).

I have a webpage but haven't updated it in a few months...

Wiki's are the way of the future when it comes to making documentation Ad-hoc but eventually become static as graffiti grows with popularity as a way of controlling it.

also contribute to some other wiki's

• History Wiki
• AviSynth:BlindWanderer
• Wikipedia:BlindWanderer

When it comes to writing I tend to go towards concise. A short accurate description is better then a long equally accurate description; less to get confused with, easier to find the important information (because it is all important).
