Max Graf, a longtime, much-loved 3D content creator in Second Life and many other virtual worlds (he's even featured in Linden Lab's official campaign for Sansar) is about to be evicted from his home in real life along with his family after a series of unfortunate, rather heartless-seeming events: "I'm 50. Cheryl is 60. This is terrifying," he writes in a statement to his subscribers. "We have no savings, we have no credit cards to run up... What I want is a safe place for Cheryl and my dogs to sleep at night. Nothing else matters."
Within days of Max sending out that notice, however, dozens of fellow SL creators have rallied to organize a massive, sim-wide one-week fundraiser sale, starting next week: Going to the Max.
"I am humbled beyond my ability to express," Max Graf said, when the announcement was posted. "In gaming parlance, this would be like if I was a tank amid a team of 10,000 healers and they all suddenly got very gracious on me at the same time and I started growing and then glowing and then my mana reached peak and my head exploded as I turned in to a demigod and could face any enemy."
I'll post the teleport link when Going to the Max goes live on October 3, but if you're an SL content creator who wants to help out too, contact Sophia Harlow or post a comment on the event's Facebook page.
Until then, you can also help Max while helping yourself, buying some of his acclaimed virtual items, which he can then convert into much-needed cash:
More updates soon!
I don't support sansar people!!

Max is awesome. If you looked up awesome in the dictionary there would be a picture of Max eating pizza and staring at your boobs. I am so glad this event is being put together to support a long time Second Lifer and an all around good guy.
