[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

Sick trend. Very sick.
Doing nothing by clicking on the settings of the base account to impose restrictions, twisting people's hands and kicking them in the ass, so that the risen VIP can be registered
Total arbitrariness and bullying.
Tomorrow, Lindens will impose additional sanctions for basic accounts - they will limit the number of clothes, number of accounts per person (email), the number of characters in the message, remove personal albums, remove avatars photo, set a limit on the number of teleportations, introduce a commission of 200 percent on depositing money ...,
Trust is completely undermined.
Lindens lost face.
We need guarantees and clear that never in the future Lindens will not make the players worse, but will only do better.

How can people put money into the game if they are hated, they are curtailed with rights and opportunities, are they bullied and worse?

You're being hysterical, in both senses of the word.

did I insult you?
You do not see the trend?
Tomorrow, basic accounts can enter a limit on clothes, on teleportation, on time online, and other *****.
Do you want it?

[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

Besides.
I, like a VIP, outraged
You increased the payment by 30 percent and gave me an additional 10 groups?
Seriously?
Remove all limits from the number of groups for VIP, and increase the number of prims in VIP homes by 2 times
Otherwise, your VIPs will leave you, so pay extra for + 10 groups + 30 percent - there are no such fools.

Everyone should understand that Linden can easily remove all restrictions on the number of groups - these are database settings, the database is NOT overloaded with a list of groups, this is 1 click in the administrative panel )))
The list of user groups of the game has no effect on the database. If there were 1000 groups and each, then it is possible)

Continuing wrong, otherwise attempts to rob the owners of basic accounts. Now you threw a bone like a dog, returning a part of what we already had, and think that it was all over?
It's outrageous!
The credibility of the owners of the game is lost almost completely, the greed of the owners has no limit.
Tomorrow you will raise prices again, and again steal from us what you have, by entering for example limits on things, on the number of suits, on the number of teleports, or invent some other *****. To squeeze money out of us.
Where is the guarantee that you do not stop mocking us?
You hurt us all and spit in our faces.
All players are offended.
You already put your hand in our pocket, raising the prices for depositing money and VIP!
Moreover, they offended all their players!
Where is the compensation?
Return the number of IM base accounts and as compensation for insulting all your players, increase the number of groups to 70 for the base account.
And stop trying to rob us, then to make us buy what you stole.

Most of my friends list, it is minimum 3-4 hours, if not 8+ hours in that day

Well, someone comes every two or three days for half an hour to say hello. And someone comes once a week.
I'm talking about approximate estimates of the number of active accounts and not about accurate estimates.
Lindens themselves talk about the numbers of a million people a month.

number of people online barely peaks over 50.000

No one is in the game for 24 hours. 1-2 hours on average. And not every day.
To maintain the figure of 50,000 online during the 24 hours, you need about 24 / 1.5 and multiplied by 50,000 - 800,000 people.
If 1/2 of the players comes 1 time in two days, then there are at least 1,200,000 active accounts in the SL.

All of these things, while valid points, are changeable as determined by you as a company. And the fact that you don't get every dollar I spend is not my fault and not a reason I should pay extra to be treated equal. You as a company designed it this way. My money goes into the system, making it more valuable.

You're right.
The abominable logic of thieves who are trying to explain to me why they are climbing into my pocket again.

[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

Two letters from Linden to the mailbox - again the problems in the game.
And they are trying to sell this *****, and they also steal from the players of their group, and also raise prices)))

way a vector goes

Open sims grid

[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

forget about new stores - after the sanctions on putting money into the game, much less money will come into the game.
This will tell you any bank employee.
In order for more money to come in and more people put money into the game - you need to lower the commission, and not raise it.

You can't be serious.

it's just a computer toy. Only a computer toy. And not the goal of life.
There are free open sims, many give free bento bodies and a lot of people.
All the clothes there are free, and the land is free.
I don't care where to play. And much the same anyway.
They play where better.
They play there where they do not try to rob, but they try to rob us. Twice a year increase in prices for money input + theft, + price increase.
Thanks to Linden for help in the development of open Sims grids.
With their idiocy they actively help it)))

 

[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

In a word, Lindens dealt a heavy blow to his child, who is already leading to a massive exodus of players in the open Sims, refusal of VIP accounts (I refused two VIP accounts) and the termination of putting money into the game as well as reducing the players' business activity.
Epic idiocy - all players are opposed to the Lindens.

[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

on Russian web resources (this is a million accounts and hundreds of thousands of players) there are hot descriptions and many offer to go to the open sims. And all the commentators agree with them.
If the Lindens wanted to lose their players, they already lose them.

[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

To take away from a person some number of groups that he had before is the most real robbery.
And to try to sell him what they stole is generally disgusting and deserves contempt and spitting in the face.
The owners of the game completely lost face from greed.

[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

The number of groups cannot be touched.
Money paid for these groups.
The people are wildly outraged and require blood, talking about leaving the game in open sims
Many already register accounts in the open Sims.
In second life they will not return.
20 of 50 of my friends wrote to me that they were leaving, in the open Sims.
Mockery of the owners of VIP accounts, making VIPs more expensive, despite the fact that they are not bought at all, is losing 2/3 of owners of VIP accounts. And a blow to the linden business.
Making an extra tax on putting money into the game is an epic stupidity that will reduce the input of money into the game.
Thorough idiocy game owners. Epic stupid anti-ads.
In one second, the Lindens forced all of their players to hate the Lindens.
This is an epic stupidity and not love for those who bring them money.

[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

Disgusting
Many will only win money if they go to competitors
Let the Lindens play their own game. Without us.

[A brief note on pricing changes, which ran long.]

Sanctions? Someone went crazy and decided to kill the game?

I already see that very many players from impoverished Russia and players from the not rich former USSR (a million players) are very outraged by the new sanctions and are talking about leaving for the open SIMs and other competitors
I myself (I have two VIP accounts), in protest against these sanctions, will close VIP accounts and stop depositing money into the game.
Besides. Several web resources have already published news of new sanctions and public active anti-advertising.

They treat us like a cash cow and try to make the game worse and squeeze more money.

What do we get in return?
Bullying - worsening conditions, trying to get into your pocket.
Disgusting graphics, lags, brakes, a lot of problems and raw code.
