WADE1 Jya Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I just released a new product and was thinking there is a place still on this forum to shout out new products :matte-motes-not-entertained:Am I just not finding it somehow? I am so confused...Is there no "New Product" forum any more existing anywhere?If not, where, or how do you let the entire Second Life community know about your new releases these days?:matte-motes-impatient: Thanks in advance guys!

Ishtara Rothschild Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 There is no such forum anymore. Only land sellers still get free advertising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WADE1 Jya Posted July 18, 2011 Author Share Posted July 18, 2011 Hmph... how not fair is that :matte-motes-stress: I feels kinda disconnected here :matte-motes-asleep: *pouts* oh well, I guess I have probably promoted my SL product the best I can then --- everywhere but the SL website *grumbles* meh :matte-motes-impatient: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoothie Perl Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I haven't be on forum for a while and I noticed that myself. Can I ask why? Why creators are excluded from forum and not Real Estate???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciaran Laval Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 There isn't one, there should be though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innula Zenovka Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 There's a New Products forum over the road at SLU, and doubtless other independent forums have theirs, too. Maybe LL think that's sufficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peewee Musytari Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I did try getting one but the thread has been archived now http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Forums-Blogs-Answers-and/New-Products-Forum/m-p/813779#M2926 It was addeed to the agenda for the CTUG meeting and postoned until the following week so it could be considered and the next meeting the answer was NO. We didn`t even get to discuss it. When pushed for a reason the best we could get was that "advertising on the forum is to be kept to a minimum" pfft!!! The purpose of that forum was never advertising, ofc you can`t talk about a product without it being a form of advertising, but that was not the reason the forum existed or why tt was popular, it was because you got to hear about kewl new stuff in SL Bottomline, unless you are in the real estate business, LL does not want you to have any form of advertising that they are not getting paid for Maybe its time to request it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciaran Laval Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I don't really see how a new product forum is much different to an events forum, which we now have. I don't know why they don't have a classifieds forum either, with restrictions on how often you can post. As for advertising in the forum, people use signatures to advertise, sure you can turn that off, just as you can choose not to read the forums that contain advertising.

Merchants haven't taken any action like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyo Darcy Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I miss this section as well. You know what? Any extern SL forum has those sections. The only website which doesnt is this one here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd do this kinda thing myself, just because I love taking action as a way to get things done... but for this method to work, it probably gotta be some real big merchant, someone as big as that landowner! Alternatively, it could be a group effort, where a very large number of merchants gather together in one voice to say we want this! It seems kinda silly that there is absolutely nowhere (on LL properties) to share news of our latest creative work anymore? Somebody that can attend OH , please will you add a +1 vote to this issue in my absence? :matte-motes-smug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WADE1 Jya Posted July 18, 2011 Author Share Posted July 18, 2011 "I don't really see how a new product forum is much different to an events forum, which we now have" Aha! I see a solution of sorts here that'll do for now.... I simply have to run a little event every time I launch something new! I'll have to organize a little party or something to celebrate each new product launch & then hype this up in the Events forum. Brilliant! :smileyhappy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
