I want to obtain a full private region, I am a representative of Moose International, all funds are dedicated to children and seniors and intended for our university, Moose Heart and retirement village, Moose Haven, not intended for virtual space. that being said I ask that anyone who intends to abandon a full private region not to do so but to contact me so I can assume payments and avoid the setup fees as they are direly need for our mission. I am Dizzy2013...Thank you for your time. You can also contact me at: dizzy2013.forlife@gmail.com

last week I purchased a thank you box from swa and nothing works it all disappears after 5 seconds, I searched the net and everything is dead, even the swa website is gone.

under that concept of a no market new VIP sim where new VIP's can purchase affordable property of their choosing they would have to pre agree that all property purchases are final and non refundablable upon departure and all things on the property will self destruct within 24 hours after departure so the property will be immeadialy availabe to the next new VIP desiring it, that will offset the differences in a market enviorment on a non market sim and Linden will still incur substancial revenue regularly.

first of all I do not totally disagree with you, i think its getting out of hand and it hurts new members that cant afford what you speak of. That being said in in consideration of your views then maybe the linden's should create a new sim with every sort of property available at fixed affordable prices to new members that cannot be sold or rented that they must live on and build their dream until they buy somehwere else or leave in that case that property is returned to SL inventory as available for that sim to the next new member that desires it and buys it.. that sim should only allow leased/rented businesses to operate on the lease/rent aspect, there should be no real estate market on that sim that would entirely eliminate all the foolishness and give all new member the opportunity to experience SL in the fullest and make a decision as to how they wish to proceed, or just stay there for ever if they choose, however they can not own property anywhere else and live on that sim which would eliminate another problem on the mainland. If they desire to do that they can relocate to a sim that allows it. Either way I would like to see SL survive. I realize they offer a 512 houses to new members free, however that it silly its limited and they cant experience the full offerings of SL and what they can do and the prims in those houses barely furnish 1 room so its too limited as well as being centralized in one area. Im talking about property they can buy at affordable prices to build and learn from and experience all SL has to offer free at wil. But cant be touched but mogols with get rich schemes and to heck with anyone else. Atleast they will have a chance, not everyone has the money many on here do, if you rent a beach house at say 2000-4000l a week, thats 80-160 RL bucks in L's they have to buy every month and a lot of people don't have that kind of money to to that, so there has to be some kind of exception to the rule for the masses where everybody has a chance to enjoy SL rich and poor, its a game for crying out loud not RL, many people do not join just to be seen, many wish to experience what the 3D life has to offer on the technological aspect of it, people cant see you anyway, what they see is a figment of your imaginaqtion so if some can only live where they can be seen I'd be a little concerned about that, especially since realistically they cant see you anyway.

I actually have property in 3 other grids, and use them regularly, however I have a lot of friends in SL I I have always liked being a part of it but I would like everyone and anyone to be able to enjoy that too and the mainland should be dedicated to that principal, I never said one couldnt own property only that there should be a limit on the amount they can own on the mainland many have rediculous amounts of property they devide up and sell for rediculous prices and it keeps others from being able to buy desirable land, the only ones they dont want are gettos and yes you can get them cheap, but SL is not about segregation of classes it should be equal opportunity for all to enjoy, yes SL does get revenue however they also lose revenue from those that cant afford the crazy prices, SL did not start out that way and for many years did not have that effect, this is a condition brought on by RL much like a disease that eats you until you die.Your ideas of being out in nowhere is rediculous, it would be your home you can hangout on the mainland anytime TP style. Yes I tend to agree luxury in RL costs more, but this is a game not RL and you can do that anywhere in SL there is no reason for it on the mainland. If all you want is to be seen by others then stand in front of the linden house. Others of less financial status should be afforded the same oportunities, and the mainland should be the focus of that or it limits who can be a part of SL.

I keep getting IM's regarding this post and I am sorry, I have talked to hundreds online in world that do not have property or houses because they cannot afford the astronomical prices being placed on desirable properties that are being hoarded up by real estaters and developers and resold for astronomical prices that many just cannot afford and that defeats the principals of what SL intended. For every person that does not remain or does not become VIP because they cannot afford desirable property and leave that is lost revenue, many would have the experience of being a property owner given the chance would stay and enjoy it, however they are not given the chance. The mainland should be dedicated to the players new and old to experince SL, if they want more property elsewhere that option is available to them, hoarding up all the desirable properties on the mainland puts a big limit and one being able to experience what SL is about, there is no sense in it when they have other places people can buy or build outside of the mainland, it only hurts those who wish to become a part of SL, and that amounts to lost revenue, at its current rate it wont last long all the property is disappearing to hoarders.

i have replied as asked by a frined as to not confuse, I have been coming and going from SL since it first began, many of you know me as keira, this post is not a post of disgrunt this is a post of the trend SL has benn taking and my view of what is happening as I see it day by day.

After years of being part a what once was a thriving development it appears now that SL has fallen into the same cycle that destroyed America's economy in the real world "Greed", Real Estate Developers and Land Barons are making it impossible for the average person, new or old simple life participants to obtain land and take advantage of the product SL produces for everybody. Not everybody has the financial ability to be king of the hill, many persons have limited budgets, fixed incomes, or just do not have access or means to compete with developers or barons. In all fairness this just being just a online game, all people that have or wish to join second life should be able to have the ability to experience it and be a part of it in every aspect. SL is not flip this house or battle of the banking mongols. First of all, the advertising is false, you cannot get property of your own that you choose if you are not prepared to spend a lot of money, because most property is consumed by the rich and resold at 4 to 50 times their value, which the average person just can't afford, which limits a players ability to take an active part in the community. Each participant should have the right to obtain property of their own choosing at fair value so they to can expierence what SL has to offer. Sadly we should learn our lessons from RL, the greed factor lead to the collapse of our economy and as such if allowed to continue in SL only the same collapse is inevitable, not to mention the number of people that quit because they cannot enjoy what SL has to offer because of this mindset others inflict upon them. Second and last, SL really needs to implement a limit on the amount of property one can own on the mainland, quite possibbly to one full region and if they desire more they can create they're own sim, or create more off the mainland, the mainland should be protected so that all players Old and New have equal and fair opportunity experience what second life has to offer as the product is advertised for such. And should not be restricted to whatever is left over. All persons should have the same fundamental abilities without regard to status, financial ability or personal wealth. this aspect is getting out of control and must stop or the product will implode within itself and we will lose many good SL followers and be severly limited to the number of new enrollees, it is a trend that destroyed our society in RL, that should not be allowed to exist in SL. I will not be happy with having to withdraw my VIP status and discontinue being a part of this "GAME", however, myself like many others just do not have the money, or ability to compete with Developers, Barons to be a part of it, we just wish to experience what SL has to offer on a personal level, and have fun and if I must I will, as sad as it may be to leave behind all the friends I have made, I may not have any choice. This is supposed to be fun and entertaining. Why people have to destroy everything they touch and ruin it for everyone else I do not know, maybe it's just the mindset of todays society. In any event SL should take a long hard look at the direction it is going before it is too late. There is also a national posting that investigators from all divisons of enforcement are looking into these 3D worlds, which is interesting in itself, they have been working undercover within these worlds accumulating data and information, so one has to wonder as to what is going on. I do not believe it is SL itself,because SL does not condone illegal activity, they are interested in the players. So if anyone is involved in any kind of illegal activity they should be warned that the person next to them that they are talking too could be an investigator, and just like any other world, we are all subject to obey the same laws, and even though it is just a game you can legally be charged and arrested. The use of a computor device to commit any act prohibited by law is a federal crime. All computors leave what is called a foot print, or a finger print ( to a person ) that can be traced right back to you, regardless of firewalls or proxies, your server must give them your IP, address by law and that brings them right to your front door. They are collecting data that can be used in the future against you.
