My husband and I have been married 15 actual years TODAY in SL. A year after we married in SL, we married in RL, and we're still together!

PE count has just impacted my world in a big way, and I wonder if everyone in SL understands how this is going to mess up building. PE is prim equivalence... a new way of calculating prims that now counts sculpties with a heavier prim weight. The impact tonight happened when Amaretto updated their horses, and suddenly horses that were 14 prims became 19 prims. That increase doesn't sound like much, but for some people who had over 200 prims available on their land, they suddenly had 30. From what I read posted by Jeremy Linden, this is supposed to give regular prim builds and mesh builds equal weight. How does this affect sculpties? Well, most of them will have a higher prim count now. Does this really save so much strain on the servers, when mesh objects take up so many more resources? I guess we'll see. But the updates are starting, and all next week there will be regional updates that will ensure that these new weights are affecting us all. Do we get higher prim counts available on our land to compensate us? Nope. Thanks so much, Linden Labs. After four years of faithful membership (most of that being paid premium membership), I am giving serious thought to chucking it all. Way to go.
