Did they ever add the Adult Continant of Zendra? If not all they had to do was add some water regions between going from PG to Moderate to Adult in ratings to avoid the whole Adult regions next t PG regions issue.

I currently spend more in SL right now then I had the prior last few years this costs includes land both private islands & mainland. On average with land and shopping about $700 a month. (This could change if RL inflation keeps going up as paying $150 a week for gas to get back/forth to work is starting to drain me.) In the past it had been much less due to feeling SL was being abandoned by the lab for that gold plated turkey they called Sansar. Looking back over the last two decades I noticed almost every change I made was the direct result of something LL would do, if they did something bad that many were upset over often this would upset me too were I'd abandoned my lands then just hangout in a sandbox not spending money, if enough time went by and nothing negative was coming out of the lab and SL seemed stable I'd buy lands, spend more while being much more happy. I believe you could pay nothing or alot of money and get the same results it just depends on your expectations and what you believe you need to have at a baseline level for your SL.

Premium+ gets you 4096 land with 1400 prims. pay Yearly fee upfront and just $13 dollars a month tier fee to lab. To me it is better to pay direct to linden's and have full control over land. You can get a full flat squire 4096 on one of the mainlands for as low as $L1500 if you do not care about ground level looks and just live in the sky. These deals come up often sometimes as cheap as $L500

I prefer to discriminant against others, its one of my favorite pastimes.

So Hamlet has also been pressing the lab lately to charge for Teleports and other strange Facebook Digi Stasi moves in SL even at this late in it's lifespan . Hard to take him with a grain of salt, more like a landslide full of it. he also ran off most of his readers with his lopsided censorship.

Places like that used to show up on the Beta Grid from time to time then disappear again until another time . like some strange relic waiting to be found.

Where would one find the oldest private island still surviving and what could be on it?

That's True

Sometimes it's ok to put your current account to sleep and moonlight on another one. two can play at that game.

Yes and a huge majority also say in most listings you can find the same item inworld for much less. Out of thousands of sellers you will find most have a store/booth or a cheap stall someplace inworld at discounted rates. MP is often just a way of advertisement for rare stuff just like people use it to sell land, the lsiting you can buy from or visit inworld to save some dough, MP has a few advantages its fast, easy to search through and instant purchase. My point is buying Inworld at Events, Malls & Shopping Experiences not only can provide you Better Mesh Body Support Options( Support for lessor known Brands) but also can provide a better experience at a cheaper price.

I know your very observant from reading the above but missing a lot of inbetween context about Rezzable as Starax /Lightwaves was only one of several owners, he left not out of what you pointed out, he left like many others did long ago on the promise of Opensim , he tried to create a grid over there while offering residents here a way to transfer viewer inventory/regions into peoples own personal grids over there. this caused LL to update the terms of service while also restricting more access to server side features that disabled his service. not long afterwards he left for good(maybe) Rezzable fell into the trap many thousands of residents did at the time on the promise Opensim was the future and after so many education people moved over, it was reasonable to see why such an action was taken, but it was mistaken.

Please do not let that be your only metric, Inworld we have Hundreds and maybe even a Few Thousand Brands not on the MP who sell millions of transfer only yardsale/event stuff , many stores are now events only. also many higher quality fashion gear can only be found inworld. Marketplace is easy and fast but for Rare/Ultra Rare stuff your only going to find it shopping in person, you will also find many of these brands often have support for lessor supported bodies that's the little extra many are looking for. I only shop on the marketplace if i need something generic like landscaping or a house. when it comes to fashion I find the best prices/deals including expanded body support at inworld shopping at events.

I'm topo lazy today, will only be able to send a hug!

M. Linden's shadow and his deeds still effect us all to this very day. The lab has made it a seasonal holiday yearly to screw something up or we all might become worried😁

Just like I mentioned about the Sniffles Shots anything to do with my body then it's my choice 😁What many do not know Facebook/Google/others they send all your info/texts/conversations everything to government servers to be cataloged forever to match upcoming social credit score, want to know why Identity theft is so common in USA? after 6 months by law google/meta is allowed to sell your conversations and Gmail Emails to anyone. Expect no privacy.😊

I always thought the whole LL Digi Transferable Gift Cards thing would help boost the economy very positively, people could have raffles in clubs to win a free last name or in a hunt the prize could be a 1yr premium member gift card. or like your pointing out a gift for a loved one.

I just stick with Maitreya & Slink as I wear clothing most of the time so the body is mostly Alpha anyways. I find buying many different heads is a better option when it comes to changing my looks combined with new hair styles. Belleza is an older well respected brand, but they also had to fight in the early mesh body wars years ago were fake DMCA were flying all over the place and huge legal costs being incurred. maybe they have not updated to not have to deal with the unpleasant dark side of SL Fashion (Just a thought)

The dead corpse of a once living tree cruelly sliced into thin layers then topped with something called Ink made from coal that's fossilized dead dinosaur bodies. 😢

If Meta has to go after SL it's very telling on their part considering SL is more of a Corporate Passion Hobby then Balls to Walls Competition showing just how desperate they are at this point to get people into a 3D Version of Datamining by Mark(Be an Android like me) Zuckerberg. wouldn't shock me if they wanted DNA from users to login next.

Still kinds high to me, $29 seemed somewhat more reasonable. If you owned a full region through LL recently you did not have to have a premium account to change names, wonders if that still applies? I would like EBBE as a last name choice for residents to honor Ebbe Linden.. I could be Emily Ebbe or something

If we could gift our premium discount to a friend to me that would really be a winner, maybe limiting it to one time a month? so it's not abused. Just being able to gift name changes would be a great as a present for a friend.
