    Sorry - I'd vote against LL endorsing vendors that LL does control. There is just too much opportunity for mischief there and, sadly, some people would take advantage of that to make money. :(

    LL putting their own vendors in public places - info hubs, welcome areas, LL builds, even something nice on the public/protected land of high-traffic regions - would be great. If people *know* that 100% of the money is going to LL, I think they would be more comfortable donating.

    Or maybe a new ticket type that could request that a Linden or Mole drop an official vendor at a slurl? Dunno if they have the molepower to keep with that traffic that might create..

    Hey all, We heard ya! We've just created an "

    Thanks, Amanda.

     

    At the risk of sounding like a whiner, didn't you guys KNOW that this was the one thing your customers were going to probably be very interested in? I didn't record stats from the last 2 rounds of LL fourms but, IIRC, General Discussion was easily where most of the traffic was. I thought there was some push at LL to listen more to customers want and all that...

    On the new forums stuff, it's better but it still feels like that Jive stuff with the editor that tries very, very hard to be very, very helpful but mostly just gets in the way.

    BRING BACK RESMODS!!!

    Sounds lke this might be good, except the silly facetwit stuff, but..

    /me looks suspicious.

    As customers, your satisfaction and input is critical to the success of Second Life. ... we’re going to roll out a new community platform for Forums that is easier to use and more organized

    It's hard to imagine something worse than the software you're using now. Huge numbers of your customers were against it. LL said it was easier to use and more organized and had a bazillion nifty features and all that.

    Now, again, you're announcing a new & improved system for us to use but, well, did you ask your customers for input on what would increase their satisfaction in this area? It seems like that would be critical to success. I haven't been around much lately. Maybe I missed those discussions.

    Is it time to yet again try telling LL that a product that doesn't work doesn't sell and that pissing off your customers so frequently isn't really good for business?

    Are they listening yet?

    These results aren't due to lack of marketing or new features or expensive things for corporations, LL. For about the bazillionth time, if you make your customers happy, SL will start growing again. Nothing else you've tried over the last few years has worked, maybe you could give that one a shot, even if you're not convinced it's true.

    /me wanders through the comments above and concludes Kim's best move is: have fewer existing customers that are ready to lynch LL.

    Personally, I would love to see my RL work (server manufacturer) somehow use SL. Better marketing if we went to agni or off-site colab stuff with opensim or (if the pricing was less insane) nebraska. Lots of potential there. Sad part is that there's no way I'd encourage work to spend money on SL, with the last few years of actively annoying customers every chance you get.

    It's been said many times before: stop wasting your monopoly, LL. It won't last forever.

    Welcome, Kim. You've got your work cut out for you - hope you can make things better.
