Why should they waste time reinventing the wheel when there are perfectly good solutions that already exist. If you're that desperate to not ever leave SL, you can always stream Lab Gab on Media on a Prim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Amore Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Didn't LL get rid of the Governance User group because of people whining too much or was there another reason? Just like in a lot of voice chat regions, there will ALWAYS be a few people who monopolize everyone's time. Having an open Q&A session would inevitably end in a fuster cluck. We all know it. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Zhaoying Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 (edited) It seems, some residents want to close the distance gap with LL, and like, crush them in a giant hug!! And others, just want to push LL away, all sad-like. Distance can be a tricky thing, everyone has different needs and boundaries.

Will always have to deal with people putting a negative stigma on us. I would rather open the flood gates, and let people in, so they can make their own opinions on what SL is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Mistwood Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 /me smells a personal dispute Distance between the Lab and residents where we all discuss our opinions on whether we all feel this distance because the Lab Gab is not run like an open house for bearing grievances in real time and how best to have your points to them heard.

But putting what is basically the Homeroom Announcements on Youtube, delivered by attractively put together avatars and voiced by the Lindens - who know what they're talking about - is good advertisement. Like, if you didn't play SL, but saw those Boston Blaisedale body tutorials, you might be tempted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying take it off of Youtube, but you go on about trolls and if we open it up to the public it will allow them in. Wouldn't YouTube do the same thing though? So I mean just let everyone in, this is a platform for everyone to come and socialize and have fun. What is the harm in that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because most people who are super SL-online want to interrupt so they can complain about their personal pet grievance.

It happens on every platform and the people and those people who are in charge, deal with it. That is part of working in a business like this.

EnCore Mayne Posted October 25, 2022 Author Share Posted October 25, 2022 i'm not sure what's going on since i've been able to use the forum tools made available to us all that prevents known sour pusses from being heard. i highly suggest everyone who's interested in exchanging ideas in a polite and rational manner avail themselves of the same tools. it does seem, to me, that it's always the same individuals who demonstrably exhibit their antagonistic beliefs to the detriment of the issue's fullness of expression. feeding the trolls only sends the topic into a place they desire for all issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
