Hello there
Hardware fee's, setup fee's. Monthly fee's.
These are what keep SL running and help provide the platform with more inovations,
Bandwidth is typically not cheap and since LL is only moving a certain amount of data they would not have the lower price.
Hardware costs are another issue, that includes upkeep and hands on support at the datacenters LL is in.
Then employee costs at the lab it's self.All these help keep SL viable and useable, if they stopped charging as much as they do or dropped the prices, espically now when they are working on a new version of this world. it would tank and tank hard and quickly and nobody wants that.
So for now it seems that they have a good fix on prices, 1000.00 usd for setup fee (private sims) and the 295.00 usd maintance fee, or "tier"
I'm in the industry and build servers and put them in datacenter and handle these things hands on. so coming from me. this is not a cheap endevor the lab is running with here.

"forcing out the little guy"
DOOM AND GLOOM! all I keep seeing, how about this is something LL can no longer let happen? How about they now have more real laws to deal with? How about they was audited by the IRS. quite a few varibles and if it forces certain people out, then we know all we need to know right?
Suffie keep it legal and SL stays, keep it like it is currently. SL wont exist. rather they keep it legal.

yeah another person who can not read... FOR SALE. this is a for RENT ad.

On top of those suggestions, I'm going to throw out there you will want a nvidia card for SL. lots of things on google even say that

Amercian based company that already has a limited support staff is not going to be at your beckon call. They are not at mine and I would never make such demands and if you come and go "you should" nope. I'm sorry it's a holiday in the states, people have a right to be with their families and if you still want to argue then well you will be **bleep** out of luck getting a reply back from me.

This is not directed at you, I clicked the wrong reply

they can make it worse like it happend under rodvik and never tell us jack **bleep**. want that?

There is nothing wrong. tested all 13 of my accounts each load, and load fast and fine. CHANGE your hair base or shape. "I'm a cloud" sometimes the sql links get corrupted you must force them to renew the link. so change outfits. change shapes. hair bases. change groups. things like that and make sure your damn bandwidth setting is not over 1400. but in the clients all of them have it that derp out after 1400 on bandwidth

Sense SL is openGL and always has been, I do not think they will be using "webGL" since the viewer is not a web browser and is not serving content to web users.
WebGL has it's place, but it's not with SL. that would screw the pooch if they went "screw it, guys, were gona switch to this" do ya realize how many pissed off high paying people who help us maintain SL's operations would be screaming. yeah let's just let this go.

"back in the old days" good lord, we used to have total grid shutdowns back then. used to hit a peak concurrency and things would grind to a halt, hell they used to take down the grid on wednesday and update it. then we'd play hell over the weekends with the new features (bug) they introduced. No *buzz* things are not better back then. They are totally better right here in the present.

100 down and 50 a month. pipe dreams. Hardware, up keep, bandwidth, employee's, server facility rental.
^.^

Sl2 is going to be built, SL1 will still be running. sky is not falling.
-
my advice do not add to the fear mongering or panic. quite a few people are just going off what others are saying and not reading what ebbe has been saying, alot of bull**bleep** floating around right now.
so once people figure out things will be ok, things will return to normalish.
-
SL is not going to die. SL1 Will exist along side SL2 until they prove that SL2 is what people want. I really wish people would stop fear mongering and start reading what is being said, direct words come from the CEO of the Lab. So relying on information obtained by word of mouth some a friend of a friend of a sister of a brother is fail.

That quote you used of what I had wrote is not even in the context. it was for somebody who replied to me.
-
heh you responded to me. I dun have answers. Ebbe might.

heya ebbe :3
all I would ask for this new venture would be to let us retain our names. since even I, took the plunge and bought a domain name for it to put myself out there even as my own av. would be weird to have to start the name all over.
that's all I got.

2 years my main had 300k, was mostly hold several of his groups builds, so whole sims worth of crap and he was born in 07. then this one. she's at 48k. the main I am doing a purge on friday on my next day off. so he'll be down to only important crap.

There are a few others, when I reintergrate myself into the world I'll pull my LM's

They had to postpone it, something else crept up that knocked half of SL offline, now they have that fixed, they can do the other update they have planned. These things happen, it is the tech sector after all and SL is no where near being stable enough to make predictions or say it will work right. nature of the best with this kind of technology and programming.

nobody cares about the people who are wanting to boycott, their goverment does not care, 500% unemployment rate and their goverment wants to throws billions at a stupid sport instead of helping there own people.
-
There is alot of people boycotting it this year, the politics behind it are horrible and even players are behind the boycott, search google is all I can commend.
So basically do not expect much

I watched them reveal dragon v2 the other night. if it works like they say it will. it's a game changer.
-
I read it, I'm impressed. the full transparency is a bit scary, but it's MORE then welcome.

They use google apps, that's not free. they will not hand out free email accounts without charging for them, maybe they could offer it as a premium perk, as there are levels they can purchase for how many users they have. I use google apps. so this is something I know first hand

even if there was one, it would be against what LL has put in place and it would not last long and you would face an account ban, possibly global. they can not play games with this anymore, the IRS stepped in and quite a few changes have been made. Some of us suspect since the BitCoiners were using the exchange at high volumes that there was laundering happening and LL got there hands tied and put into cuffs. so it's not going to happen as nobody is going to take the risk, right now LL is processing everything manually, to help lower the risk of fraud and other malicious things. sorry but this is how it is for now.
