$650 viewer

People are claiming SL is going to start charging $650 for a viewer and block all 3rd party viewers, why i doubt this isn't true and it is just lies to get people to play another open sim game i have to ask if this is true.

Sam, believe it or not, Linden Lab wouldn't do something that foolish.

That's completely ridiculous.  I don't know who "people" are who've told you this, but someone is pulling your leg. 

Every now and then, wild rumors pop up about one thing and another.  They are almost invariably untrue.  We call this phenomenon "FUD", short for "Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt".

Just carry on.

I'm happy to say that this myth did NOT originate in the OSGrid community or the community of OpenSimulator developers.  Mostly because even if true, it'd speak for itself, but it's not true, so spreading it would be retarded.
