  2. I guess you did not endure mainland prior to the move to the cloud? Sim crossings were painful. They're still not seamless but gone are the days when you'd find yourself constantly flying uncontrollably across sims as soon as you cross a border. SL has come a long way since then, in part due to the move to the cloud. The hardware is better but that doesn't mean everything else stands still. We now have higher resolution textures, more complex avatars, more detailed mesh designs and that's just to name a few - oftentimes these are not optimised to meet end-user hardware limitations. Imo the weakest link is end-user hardware, more often than not. A lot of people still run SL on non-gaming spec computer hardware. Of course they're going to suffer with lag if they do not keep their settings low. I brought this up before only be told "SL is not a game!" -- try telling your computer that! I have a 2 year old mid-spec gaming laptop and I think it's fair to say SL gives it a good spanking. Even in the depths of winter, I can turn off my radiator because my laptop is sufficient to keep my room heated. The weakest link is probably not AWS infrastructure.
  3. Definitely looks under 18 to me also. I'm not surprised many sim owners have a zero tolerance policy for avatars which may potentially look under 18, particularly if they have a moderate/adult theme. Surely this is a good thing? Also, avatar height on SL is deceptive. This is because many residents have avatars far in excess of average heights in the real world. If you are 5'5" in SL (which is more or less average female height in many western countries), you will look below average/very short on SL and this will not help in terms of convincing people that your avatar is intended to look 18+.

  8. Hmm not so sure. Looking at the map right now there's in the region of ~150 avatars in Horizons, not including the info hubs. Compare that with Bay City which is virtually empty right now. (sadly) For me there is a real sense of community & life in Horizons, unfortunately the same cannot be said for many areas in SL as you no doubt already know. As for abandoned parcels in Horizons, albeit a rarity - you can put in a claim but LL will likely receive interest from other individuals too and on that basis they will put them on auction. - I don't blame them. If they can take L$70k+ out of the economy, that's L$70k+ that won't be making its way to a Tilia account any time soon. So rightly or wrongly, it benefits LL to send them to auction. If that helps to keep SL afloat, then why not? I'm one of those "landlords" though not particularly a fan of that term. I rent out my parcels in Horizons at competitive rates and I don't expect rental returns to cover the cost of purchasing the parcel as you quite rightly made evident with your calculations. It does cover tier which indeed isn't negligible and will always be a factor for any land dealer. If a parcel sits empty, it still costs the land dealer tier and that is a problem land dealers cannot simply ignore. Location is everything. A parcel in a good location at a reasonable price will rent out. That said, if the parcel sits vacant for any length of time, I sell it and buy something else and if I'm lucky prices will have risen over time. It doesn't always work out that way and may also take time but so far it has enabled me to build a portfolio of nice parcels while being able to rent them out at competitive rates for the benefit of other residents. For me it's just for fun. My rl job pays my rl bills and that's it. Some land dealers take it far more seriously and do make a rl living out of it but I'd hazard a guess they are few and far between and probably a lot smarter than I. The real winners are LL and good for them. - There would be no SL without them.
  9. Some of those will be rentals. Landlords often put them up "for sale" at such prices so that they appear on the map, then in the parcel name they will often put the rental price and more often than not it will be reasonable in comparison. Of course this would not be necessary if it were possible to make it so that parcels available for rent appear clearly on the map, in the same manner as parcels listed for sale. Here is an example. Some may say L$700 p/w is still too high for a 1024sqm parcel with 702 prims but when you consider the landlord likely paid a premium to purchase that grid edge parcel, (albeit probably not L$488k) I'd argue that it's reasonable.

  17. I have not had a human avatar in SL since about 2013. My current avatar is an eagle, simply because I am mostly flying around SL. I don't like walking or running about, takes far too long so I take to the skies and have a blast. Flying as a human looks odd to me, not to mention it involves lots of faffing about to make a half decent avatar. I could go through my entire wardrobe in RL in the time it would take me to make a half decent human avatar on SL! The problem is; Many simply don't accept the fact that I choose not to be a human. It's kinda a big deal for for many, it seems. I often hear comments such as "sorry, I don't talk to birds", or "you should get a human avi", "but why are you a bird?", sometimes I will even get banned from a region because of it! Obviously I am human behind the screen, so what's the big deal? Surely in today's world we should be accepting of others and their choices, as long as they're not hurting anyone else? Would be good to hear from others and see their perspective
