Reality needs to give them a good slap. Unpopular Opinion: Customers are self-entitled whiners that don't deserve nice things. Unpopular Opinion: The human race is doomed. Unpopular opinion: Greedy creators and whiny customers are in near-perfect balance. If creators were less greedy, customers would have less to whine about. If customers were whinier, creators would be less sympathetic and more likely to think only of themselves. Thus (the ultimate unpopular opinion), creators and customers are feeding off each other, each getting exactly what they expect. The human race is likely to survive until the sun turns dark. 🙃 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's actually a popular opinion, but put into the context of the human race is doomed by global warming unless you give overwhelming control to governing authorities.

The luminosity of the sun is increasing by about 5% every billion years due to hydrogen fusing into helium and a shell being formed in the sun. Long before the sun goes dark, earth will be come a dry, hot desert, and a few billion years after that the sun will swell and envelope the earth's orbit. Humans may survive after the sun turns dark, but they're going to have to relocate away from the current home planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then, you won't have the Peeve of "why doesn't someone start a thread about X"? OMG I have a solution! Step 1: Post in Thread "A" as "Alt 1": "Someone needs to start a thread about X". Step 2: Start a Thread about "X" as "Alt 2". Problem solved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At one time, many years ago, verification of age was required. I was remembering a conversation with someone who related the story of how they snuck onto the regular grid having first started on the teen grid by "borrowing" their parent's credit card to gain access even though the person was still in high school. Thanks for sharing the info that age verification is no longer required. It just further supports my point that having a teen grid now would simply be a placebo, because minors have always been able to find a way to access all areas of SL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
