    SECOND. LIFE. WAS. NOT. MEANT. FOR. PEOPLE. TO. MAKE. A. LIVING. ON.  

     

    that's what people do NOT get.  The fact that LL lets people cash OUT of LL is the Luxury.   

    IF that was true there would not be so many ways to make money in SL.

  2. I notice a lot of people saying that gachas were a scam. No, they were not a scam. Everyone who played knew what they were getting - a CHANCE to get a rare item. LL is only following international laws to protect their business - as they should do. If the laws were not changing, LL would surely leave it alone. Personally, I enjoyed the gachas. I will be sad to see them go. But I am sure the more creative creators will find new ways to market their creations.

    When a person sits on a lucky chair with a name that matches the letter or number given, that person knows what they are getting.
    'Name with the letter A' and there is a picture as to what a person with a name that starts with the letter A will get.
    Lucky chairs/boards are usually free, unless you have to be a member of a group.
    Random prize givers the recipient has the option to accept it or not without an transaction involved.


     

    I have seen lucky chairs with mystery prizes, but you don't have to pay to sit so that is not quite the same thing.

  4. Well, I enjoyed gachas. Sorry to read this news. But LL gotta do what LL gotta do. It's not easy being a worldwide entity. Gotta make a whole lot of different people happy. Everything gets sanitized down to the lowest common denominator. I guess I better go play some gachas for old time's sake!

    Howdy everyone!

    I am potentially as confused as everyone else.  But then again I've been out of town this week and I have some catching up to do.  In any case while standing in the house of mouse, this did make it to my attention to look in to.    While I'm digging in to find out what happened there are a few things I can assure everyone of:

    1. We've made no policy changes surrounding automated vehicles on the Mainland.
    2. We like the Yavapods system
    3. We use it in Bellisseria as the "engine" for the ferry boats, with Yavanna's permission of course
    4. We keep having it back to SLB every year

    These items do not seem like a recipe for a change in policy.  Hopefully things will unfold and we'll get to the bottom of this in a positive manner.  I can't really see any other way forward, and the team and I have no reason to not support or help Yavanna. 

    Brotha Patch!  You are the best!  So glad to see you jumping on this on a Friday afternoon.  Have an awesome weekend!  If anyone can straighten this out, you can!

    On the upside...

    Everyone trying to get a Linden home fire up those auto-refreshes...

    I predict a new wave of premature house abandonments 

    **please don't throw rocks... goes and hides**

    Speaking of those new Linden Homes... I was watching them build the new land months ago.  I would love to get one just to check it out.  But no luck so far.

    It's not that bad. From what I can see this is only a reorganisation of LL with the money transaction bit split off as a separate entity. As others have pointed out they've already sued the Tilia brand for a while. In other words, we have all reasons to expect that the security and trustwortiness of Tilia is the same as LL's and we already trust them.

    (Useless tidbit for those who wonder about the name, Tilia is simply the latin name for Linden.)

    Yeah, now that I am over the initial shock I see what they are doing.  I'm sure it will all be fine.

  8. I am glat to see this news!  I was a victim of a land bot when I was kind of new.  Tried to sell a friend land for a dollar and a land bot sucked it up.  I even wrote a song about it!  Got away cheap compared to others I have heard about.  I was able to buy my land back a few days later for 700 lindens.

    You probably haven't noticed, since the change was made with very little publicity, but using LandBots to purchase mainland was banned at the end of January.  See

    While that probably won't stop the practice, it at least gives people grounds to AR the culprits. 

     

    ETA   The change seems, in fact,  to have taken place Mid December 2013.   My mistake.

     

  9. The great thing about her cars was that you could cam around and look at the scenery instead of concentrating on driving.  But I do see why people didn't like them as well.  Oh well.  The mainland roads are so dead without them.  Maybe there will be a new improved version someday.
