  1. Good thing not everyone thinks that way. If they did, Second Life would have been terminated a long time ago. I'm premium, and I buy Lindens for land and clothes etc. Considering how many hours i'm in SL every week, my expenditures work out to pennies an hour. If you work inworld, that's different, because even though you don't buy Lindens, someone who pays you had to, same with when you use the Lindens to buy stuff, you are contributing to the SL economy, and in the end to LL's profitibility and Second Life's continued existence. I guess SL makes it easier for freeloaders and moochers to get by, i just hope they don't whine too much when SL folds. *shrugs*
  2. You see a rl building that's partially settled into the ground and think they did a poor job of lining up the prims You look out into the distance in rl and think that seamless background texture is amazing. You look at a rl building and wonder how many prims it took to build it. You walk thru an empty warehouse where u work in rl and wonder why the music stream is down, and where the dj booth and group inviter is. Yes, i like to build in SL *smiles*
  3. Yes and doesn't it totally suck when someone in the first group falls for someone is the second group? Sucks for them i mean.
  4. I never ask anyone to voice, and neither does my circle of friends or my family, IM me if you wanna hang out sometime
  5. The survey wanted me to name the mesh head i use, even though i chose "none" in the question above it. I typed "none" and that was accepted
  6. Those aren't sims, they are just parcels with no traffic. Someone is paying tier on then however, so LL doesn't care how low the traffic is. My neighbor has a "dead" property, and i wish he would get back to me because i really really really want to buy his parcel.
  7. $ 512 L is a generous asessment, All he needs to do is find a similar parcel in the middle of nowhere and have LL put it to auction. He'll probably get it for the opening bid of $ 0.5 L per sq m
  8. if you never want to talk to them, wait till they are offline and unfriend them. Then in 3 months when they have figured that out and im you, either say it must have been a glitch, or you were deleting all the deadwood from your friends list and was clicking too fast and must have deleted them by accident. Apologize profusely and offer to friend them again. Its not a permanent solution but in some cases, it can buy you a year of peace. *smirk*
  9. There is no such thing as realistic mesh hair, unless you think realistic means setting your hair with a gallon of shellack. Shoulder length hair is the perfect length for flexi prim because it doesn't go thru the body like longer styles (mine included) does. Yes its true I still have flexi prim hair too, and I'm ridiculed for it, but untill the day i see a mesh hair with the same "wow" factor i felt the first time i tried on my flexi prim hair, I'm keeping it
  10. Linden Labs doesn't just randomly put abandoned land up for auction. Someone has to submit a support ticket expressing their interest in obtaining the land. If it is a worthless irregular shaped parcel beside land you already own that no one else could possible be interested in, they might sell it direct to you. Most times they will list it for auction, high bidder gets it. So, deliberately or accidentally, the OP either listed his parcel for sale or abandoned it, or his premium membership lapsed
  11. I hope its not in world. So many profiles say "What are you doing here stalker?" I'm sure i'd get harassed by at least some of them. Oh, and if a profile does say that, hell would have to freeze over before i'd actually IM them. I stay away from drama queens that advertise on their profiles. *smiles*
  12. Mark, its no wonder you think mainland is better, I see that you rent out mainland parcels.
  13. I'm premium. i own mainland and I love it. I always buy road frontage so i can hop on those little cars that run all over. But, when I'm renting, I totally go estate for the benefit of full land rights. Speaking of being annoyed, i'm selling my current mainland parcel because another parcel owner keeps the sim maxed out with his guests. So, so much for freedom.
  14. True, I could, and even I considered it, but it would seem I'd have to document it as a recurring problem, and like you say, LL probably won't do anything anyway. I might just plan a party when he only has a dozen or so people there, then I'll max the sim out with my friends for a change. *smiles*
  15. I forgot about Horizons, but those aren't "given away" with a premium membership like LL houses are. You have to compete with all the investors and speculators to get a parcel on a sim which honestly looks horrible. The advantage of Horizons over regular mainland is that the "horrible" aspect is consistent. It would be better if she just gets mature land and closes her blinds, unless, as Mr Alcott suggests she planning on running an adult business.
  16. You can engage in adult activities in a Linden home. Just set the land so people outside can't see in, and make your property group access in an invite only group. Oh and to answer your question, there are no adult rated Linden homes regions, as far as i know P.S. can i come to the party *smiles*
  17. I wish. I got a real deal on a parcel on Zindra, 3072 m roadfront for $4000 L. It seemed too good to be true but i bought it anyway. Unfortunately there is some sort of noob hangout on the sim run by a person who owns 2 small parcels. There's usually at least 20 avis there, and this morning, counting me and my friend, there was 43 avis on the sim. I could try to sell it to some other unsuspecting sucker, but i love the location. *shrugs*
  18. The difference is, when you rent land, you can't "buy" mainland like u can "buy" on a private estate. When I rent a parcel on a private estate, i "buy" it, become the land owner instantly, and have full land rights. On mainland i have to wait for the owner to show up and add me to his land group before I can do anything, which when compared to a private estate is probably very little.
  19. I'm selling two 512 Sq m parcels on the Adult rated Zindra Continent. The are listed for $2500 L each, which is about half the price of what a land baron will list them for. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Geomort/120/150/69 http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Geomort/90/147/70 Hurry and buy one from me today, or wait and buy one for $5000 L tomorrow from a land baron.
  20. When you buy land it will tell you what your new tier will be before you click buy
  21. Just like in real life you can buy land one time and never pay again but try not paying your tax (tier) and see how long your land remains yours
  22. They could be estate banned. If the estate owner ever banned your friend on any sim he manages he's banned on every sim in the estate.
  23. It must be mainland you are much better off renting on a private estate if for no other reason than you "own" it instantly and you can set your own group
  24. It might be me, I'll go to an ocean bottom when I'm having rezz issues
  25. Its possible the owner has a visitor detector, and they are coming to see who is on their sim. I'm sure its against all the rules to have one. *rolls eyes*
