Earth changing event
Maelstrom Janus replied to Boudicca Littlebird's topic in General Discussion Forum
I say stop the worrying about near earth objects at and put a rocket powered table tennis bat the size of australia in orbit ...as the asteroid approaches get the pilot ( the chinese are very good at table tennis) to fire the rockets and give it a good volley.... alternatively get a very strong series of fishing lines which you can plunge into the surface of the asteroid and attach it to the moon...then go mine out all the metals at your leisure.... some people have no imagination -
They havent tried everything at all because they steadfastly refuse to take the one step that might just reinvigorate interest in sl and thats to make it cheaper...its not rocket science.... but in my book the fact that lindens refused to paticipated in the recent birthday celebrations, the lack of news coming from lindens...points to something going on behind the scenes......and being a born pessimist I dont see it as anything good. Reduce tiers reduce the cost of a premium account, give bonuses to long term customers - increase stipends and free land allowances. Make customers feel

It'll never hit we've been around to long dont worry about it... as one triceratops said to another...... -
I was suggesting new additions to the build menu years ago ...simple stuff that might reinvigorate the stagnant building mechansims available inworld - its a pity those few who went on about meshes so vociferously didnt push for something inworld instead of taking the onus away from lindens who can simply say go off and learn to use some software out there - even though it might be complex, or expensive and even though it cant be used to build inworld...why should they care ? Not only has mesh given Linden labs the excuse to forget all about the inworld builder but it earns them extra revenus

Alternative to IP ban

I wonder if people would still griedf if they had to pay to get into sl...and pay for alt accounts to. ? Personally as a long term sl user I think everyone should be paying a premium regardless... However if everyone were paying for both their original avy ( and a reduced amount for each alt) Lindens would then be expected in my book to reduced both premium fees and tiers AND positively stimulate the land market in the process.... -
Before Lindens ever put 'weather' into operation they'd need to make objects impervious to water... I wish they would it would make lighting an underwater sea base easier...

AR anyone who sends you shooting across SL.... Dont tell me these things arent stupid when you can beam straight into a region you never visited before and end up being shot out immediately by one of these devices..... -
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Grimsvotn/214/87/21 Now priced somewhat lower than the amount Lindens would ask if this land was abandoned has to be a good buy especially for anyone who already has or who is contemplating buying other land in GRIMSVOTN and who wants more prims......has to be a great purchase in a beautiful coastal region with opportunites to expand land ownership !!

Premium...are you? and why?
Maelstrom Janus replied to Raven1 Short's topic in General Discussion Forum
Everyone should be made to have a premium account and premium fees and tiers should be reduced...... Why should those paying premium membership fees pay to support a system while others dont... -

What about SL cars?
Maelstrom Janus replied to MoiselleErin Teardrop's topic in General Discussion Forum
Cars are great if you discount the fact its impossible to cross regional boundaries in them...or find a decent carpark at the end of a journey....or somewhere to rez a vehicle unless you own land next to a road..... -
SL can't do what MMO's did 20 years ago?
Maelstrom Janus replied to Paul Hexem's topic in General Discussion Forum
Why dont I believe these people who seem to be able to tp without trouble., who never go to laggy sims etc ... Ive been in sl five years an tps fail more than they ever have as does trying to cross borders in a vehicle - despite promises this would be fixed.... Personally Ive always believed there was a 'propaganda' machine in operation to pour scorn on those with valid and oft heard complaints.....At the same time Im getting a heightened sense that the people in charge dont actually care that much about whats going on in sl for the long term users... not that the people at the top of the tot
