Linden Lab Kills Second Life

[Mirsoul Resident]

While this may not be the forum to put this in...I will chime in as well

ANY virtual world requires maint., server restarts and will always encounter some sort of downtime. In the grand scheme of things SL is not that expensive, a paltry monthly fee (I pay much more for other virtual worlds/games), and if you pay quarterly it's like getting one month almost free.

Now down time. I have not experienced much down time in SL. The land I own is extremely low lag, and it is "rebaked" or restarted pretty regularly to keep it fresh. I have many breedables on my land, and a night club that supports all the particles you can wear. So maint is important to keeping things running smoothly. But, I do know many have had issues, this is a virtual world and much like real life, will experience hiccups. I have in other worlds experienced entire days of server downtime due to maint.

Cost, well we all have the ability to control our costs here. Downtime has not affected my ability to pay my tier. Overall soft sales have at times made it close, as I try to not purchase linden to pay my tier. Real life economy will also effect the virtual economy. So blaming LL for costs is like blaming the cable company. If you can't afford it, don't get it

Are there other virtual worlds out there? Sure there are, but you have to make the choice to give up the already established grid here, and start over somewhere else.

Lol true, this seems somehow the wrong forum for an Armageddon message.

Since we are off topic already lets talk about a real urgent matter which is totally disturbing to me: the lack of last names to pick from for newer and older newer people.
This I think is a terrible issue which gives people no fair chance to have a proper identity and leads to not to understand unicode glutter display names which are simply not to read via which people try to make their identity unique.
I have display names enabled currently as I feel I should do right to how people want to be called but it is not easy at all.
But above all I think it is insane people have no opportunity to integrate with a first and last name in Second Life in a proper way.
If you think so too please let Linden Labs know via this Jira »

You could be on to something Kay. She is a woman scorned. But the butler has such shifty eyes.......

You mean that look he gives her when she admits it all and he turns to say, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give an $#%?"
