LL announce there will now be a queue.

Everyone piles on to try and get in early, mad panic, followed by disappointment and disenfranchisement.

Everyone who didn't get a number on day one will assume that their number is so high it might take years, so they wont hold on and wait.

LL release homes, they go to ticketed people in order. There will be a variable delay between LL offering and the resident taking occupancy.

The impression will be that the community is empty, or that people have claimed homes and can't be bothered to move in, followed by complaints from people who signed up just to get a ticket, only to drop membership when their monthly membership renewal ticks over and they still haven't gotten one.

The complaining now is nothing next to the complaining a ticket based system will produce.

A lottery system will feel even more unfair, some people will enter and loose every single time, forever.

 

First come first serve keeps engagement and anticipation high. You might not like it, but you're still here.

 

Good input, thank you  Makes sense.

the idea of a waitlist/queue/lottery lists has come up quite a lot on here.. All the various methods, whay and what fors have been been discussed in depth as well

you don't see many of them as they often turn into a circle of doom, between those who think lists would be good for them, and others who think not.  Which then results in the whole thread being deleted by the moderators

Makes sense why I havent seen one   No need for negativity tornadoes

no - actually there have been at least 3 similar threads before all torpedoed into deletion by people who already had a home* ... 

 

*don't ask me for the logics on that please - just my observation

Nah, that makes its own brand of sense. "I had to be lucky and struggle, and so should you."

Haha, well don't let two people accusing you of trolling by researching you inworld right off the bat, also and saying your idea should be in the "Flush your great idea down the toilet here" thread keep you from posting. We're actually a friendly group here don't you think?   😜

Most seem to be! It scared me at first, but I dont know what I was expecting. I work in a field of tech and we have the mindset of always optimizing tools and finding the best solution. Granted, that means tools always change and its a headache, but it can be a time saver. I hadnt seen it posted before, and I definitely look at all the Bellisseria  posts I see, but as you can see, Im kinda new and pretty much stick to the pinned post on the topic.

What was in their groups?

I have a "stop SL sex pac" that Im assuming theyre talking about because its funny. Not seeing how its relevant to my question here, though. First time poster because this is the first thing I've cared about.

I'm employed and made this on my break. Sorry, guys?

A lot of good answers and a few extremely unproductive ones, thanks guys   Makes sense

 

 

If the servers cant handle the Bellisseria refreshes and people want the peace of mind, why not sign up for the kind of home you want and wait for it to be allocated? I think everyone could breathe easier.
