I let someone buy me a mesh avatar and they are really weird and want me to do things that will probably get me banned. I can't log in without them messaging me, so I stopped logging in.

Just cut her off. There's really no reason to let her make your (second) life as miserable as hers. Whatever her issues are they are completely out of your hands so there's no point in burdening yourself.

I've been there. The only solution is to login when they're offline and then remove and block them and stay away from the sims they frequent for a couple of months. FYI if you login through the website you can see who is online on your friend list without revealing yourself. Just wait until they've been logged off for like 30 minutes then give them the ol' remove n' block.

Alternatively, could turn online visibility off to them, so you always appear offline. Just if you don't want to trigger any immediate repurcussions.

Turning off visibility in-game still makes you appear online to anyone that logs into the website.

It's depressing as fuck to play more than on occasion. The longer you stick around, the more you start to hate everyone, just because the game erodes your patience after a while, and you realize everyone is in some way fucked up in the head and you start having to walk on egg shells.
It starts to fuck with how you deal with people outside of SL and you realize something's gotta leave your life before you descend into complete crippling depression.

The answer is to just find some decent friends who aren't oversensitive, psychopathic dummies. It's hard to do, but in the end, it'll give you a more healthy SL experience. Of course, it helps if you can set an example for others in that regard.
I can name about 15 people who I know are pretty stable. (fun fact: only two of them have connections to the /d/ or /vg/ group)

Where do I even go to meet people? I don't like sex sims and I don't like sitting AFK all day. I could get autistically into a city roleplay sim or something of the sort, if it exists in SL anymore
Also, why doesn't LL advertise? The playerbase is embarrassingly small and most logins are from non-player avatars

SL is hella time-consuming when everyone is semi-idle and a conversation will take hours. I've had too much irl work to do. Also seems I've made the mistake of only making friends with people who don't do much besides bone. SL is really interesting but not many feel like shooting the shit often. My good friends all seem to be in the worst timezones as well.

THIS.
Although, LL has been making rumblings about actually cracking down on framerate killing content. They've started talking about rebalanced Land Impact costs, and checking avatar VRAM use for jelly dolls.
Will they actually deliver? Given their track record, probably not. But they've actually been making good on some serious SL improvements recently so it almost gives me some hope.

Maybe one day LL will make land affordable and I'll make my own place to sit around and do nothing, or maybe one day I'll commit to an alt (even though there's no real reason to).

IDK if this is even the content's fault outside of some obvious mega-polycount fuckups like certain mesh bodies and most hair.
SL legit performs exactly the same on my laptop (GTX 1060) at almost 4K as it does on my desktop at 1440P with a GTX 980 Ti.
As for myself, IDK. I'm not bored of my fetishes or anything. Just haven't found a need to login. Probably just exhaustion from catching up at work. Now that things are slower in RL I'm starting to login more.

>“I only want to talk to forward interesting people, so if I say hello, and they don’t keep the conversation going, then they are not worth my time”
I do this with new people. I'll say hi and then judging on their reply, either ignore them or try an RP intro. If they go for the standard "hi, how are you" routine I'll give them a one word reply and then leave it up to them to ramp the conversation up or get ignored.
Friends have already been filtered, generally, so I don't do that kinda stuff with them.

On a similar note...
>those people who are always in RP
>those people who try to mix casual chat and RP
For a while I was using a party slut kinda look, my intro RP was me asking if they knew any clubs around whilst I emoted tugging on my dress and stuff. I thought the emoting would clue people into the fact that I was just RPing, but nope 90% of the time I'd get some reply about "oh I don't know any clubs". Even a follow-up emote about popping a pill on my tongue wouldn't clue them into the fact that I didn't want an actual club...
