In the context of Second Life, the term Resident is applied to "people who have a stake in the world" . The term is not generally applied under the following conditions:
- People who have only created an account, but never logged in
- People who have had accounts created on their behalf for promotional events
- People who have created an account, and logged in a few times then stopped using the account
A slight exception to the application of the term would be when referring to a person who holds multiple accounts. In this case, their primary account is referred to normally with the others interchangeably referred to as Resident or Alt. No exceptions are made for those with Basic or Premium accounts, however Residents who have held active accounts since the beta or periods and have purchased Lifetime subscriptions for US$225 are referred to as Charter Members.
A Second Life Resident is represented by an avatar name and a 3D representation.
