Are most stores "labors of love"?

[Melita Magic]

" As to big companies investing in SL to "make it better", I don't see it happen. SL is pretty successful as is, LL doing a good job at improving a vastly complex system and keeping it reasonably stable (yes, it is, for something this size and complexity it's remarkably resilient and stable). "

 

I don't think I said better. 

What I meant was that if someone sunk a billion dollars into it and money were out of the equation, many things would change. I think then it could really be a sandbox, because everyone could play. Equally.

But communism never really works.

In the next bit you mentioned chronic complainers. I agree that there are some who will gripe no matter what happens. They probably feel (and it may be so) they are trying to help by pointing out where things can improve. I've always felt that things were improving, just that lately the entire community has had to go through some huge growing pains in the wider SL timeline. We were lucky enough to be here for the land ratings changes and the birth of mesh.
