  1. A large landowner living beside me moved out, and I must say bare hillside is far superior to the mess they had, plus i was able to pick up one of their parcels to add to my own holdings.

    A Linden employee came by the other day and combined all the cut up tiny parcels of abandoned land that had accumulated over time too.

  2. You realize of course that a land baron will buy your road side at 2 L per m, then immediatly set it for sale again at 2 or 3 times that amount.

    My new neighbor got pissed off at me and sold her parcel to a land baron, who immediately turned around and offered it to me at probably 6 times what he paid her for it.

  3. So, the female avis are male avis pretending to be female avis? Interesting.

    As for male subs, we had a few in the demon rp group i belong to, and they were forever whining that no one would play with them. Of course the female subs always got attention. Oh, i know, your male avi could pretend to be female too.

    I often read profiles that scream "i'm a guy in rl". Even though they think they are clever, they don't fool many people, except maybe other guys pretending to be  rl and sl lesbiens.

  4. No matter what you do, you'll still be a jelly doll to me. I have my complexity set to 20,000, and only about 1 in a 100 avatars is below that. I only render friends and people i'm interacting with. so if you said hi to me in a club, I'd render you, otherwise you'll just be another jelly.

  5. I suspect something like 99.99% of all SL users don't have a computer powerful enough to run Sansar, plus it will be optimized for VR headsets. I'm sure Sansar will have a wow factor, but that won't be sustainable. LL is setting themselves up to be the next great thing years before most people are ready for it. It would be much better if they put their efforts into improving Second Life, which has a proven cash flow and sizable customer base.

    Also, the only thing that will "migrate" to Sansar from SL is your username.

  6. Well obviously he's using it for a club, which is prohibited but it won't matter if theres 40 people in one house, or 40 people spread out over 20 houses, the lag would be the same.

    Besides i thought Jelly dolls was supposed to cure the avatar generated lag problem.

    Note to self, if u see Alwin inworld, set to "never render"

  7. I believe what we have is called a free market economy. Sellers AND buyers set the land price, because if sellers set the price too high, no one will buy it.

    LL doesn't care, they get tier from whoever holds the land, and if a baron wants to pay tier year after year for land that will never sell, thats their choice.

    There is lots of land for sale at  L 1$ per square meter, even roadside is reasonably priced. But buy it fast before a land baron snaps it up and turns around to list it at double the price.

    Thats the bigger problem, land barons flipping land, not outrageously priced individually parcels.

    But even that isn't really a problem, you just have to faster than the next guy at buying the parcel you want.

  8. I've never seen a LL homes sim with more than 3 or 4 people on it at one time. And, since the max number avatars on a full LL sim is set at 80 (or used to be) having 40 people over won't impact anyone. Most of the time there will be no one else there to complain anyway.

    However a Lindon Lab employee might be curious at the large number of avatars congregated at a private residence.

  9. Whats the point of the pictures? Well i assume it will cost 10 L to upload each picture, so the point is to make LL a whole lot of money from a totally new, previously untapped source.

    I personally don't have outfits, each clothing item is in a descriptive folder, for example "a mesh dress short red" but as for creating outfits i prefer doing like in rl, rumaging and finding things i think go good together. True it takes me 30 minutes to get dressed instead of just clicking "wear folder" but i enjoy taking the time to pick and choose.

    :)

  10. They are generating crazy high auction prices, but who is paying it? Its the same people who buy up all the adult land on Zindra and try to sell it for crazy prices: Land Barons. But thats fine, they pay their tier to LL so everyone is happy.

    I personally think LL should revamp mainland by changing all the General sims to Mature, and all Mature sims to Adult. Then they could create an all new all General rated continent for the prudes to live on.

    I think a dozen sims would easily satisfy that demand.

  11. Yes, classic avatars are "second class".

    Mesh bodies simply look so much better. I kept my system shape when i went mesh, except that now everything is smoother looking. I cringe when i see a classic avatar with the sliders maxxed out, and don't get me started on their feet.

    Its not their fault though, untill you make the change and switch to a mesh body, you have no idea how bad you looked.

    Oh, and Sansar will be born DOA, there is no place for "us" in Sansar.
