That seems pretty exciting. @Patch Linden I like how CasperVend has the ability to refund you instantly if you are making a duplicate purchase, and tells you, you have already bought that item. I do not like how not all merchants use it, and then it is a hassle to get your money back, if in fact they will refund you at all. Would be great if it was a standard of how it operates.

Hopefully the conveyor idea doesn't catch on, it sounds like a terrible way to shop. Pretty sure I will avoid this method no matter who is using it or what they are selling. Either way I suspect it will be interesting to see how things unravel going forward.

Which I am guessing is how most customers who have bought gacha's and have put the billion's of extra's up for sale on MP, feel. I have no pity for that lol I have enjoyed paying gacha many many times, but I am not sad, mostly feeling indifferent, to see them go.

selling an item randomly in a vendor, is the same as selling a gacha. if you don't know what that random item is before you buy it, it would be considered a gacha

ah yes, I see. Moving forward no one will be able to sell gachas, and hopefully you will see a difference because of it. I mean, the shopping experience will be different for most of us in a month.

Basically what I thought, change the perms, maybe the name and drop into a compliant vendor, possibly new pic with updated text. Does not seem over complicated to me. But of course I'm not the one doing it. Like I said, I hope Silas and all the creators of gacha can find a solution they are comfortable with moving forward.

Must be more complicated than I think then.

Silas, why not sell the items singly or as a set or groups? It is almost the same as what you have here if you sell them singly. Your art and creativity are amazing and inspiring. Some of the most unique and best art I have seen in virtual. I do hope you can find a solution you are comfortable with going forward.

7 seas is not the only fishing system in SL. If linden labs is going to mess with that, they will have to look at all of them. I know very little about breedables, I would think they would have to look at how different ones operate. Without criteria clarification, it is a lot of speculation.

I feel like the criteria for *gacha* should be defined more clearly. From the original announcement it appeared as tho the criteria was purchasing an *unknown item * from any gacha type machine. Now we are seeing talk of permission's being a deciding factor? Would just like to see some clear definitions.

I am also curious to see how creators will adapt. Will miss playing gacha's from time to time I am sure, but excited to see what change this will bring. Hopefully positive ones.

No one is profiting from gacha resale. If they are they are, they are an exception by a lot. At best gacha resellers regain a portion of the money they spent in the first place. That is not profit, that is not even breaking even.

Was not really sure what you meant by this, then i read the other thread in general discussion. I logged out of MP and then tried logging in again on seconlife.com and it worked. thank you.

Same here, seems I can log on to pretty much every thing second life except the second life.com page. I tried on several devices. Can log on to my alt. but not Romy.
