Send Nudes. LOL! JK.. have fun with that.

Okay, I wish you luck @Wendy Starfall, I had hoped this thread would be different, but, it's not. I am out. Peace everyone, and please remember to be respectful of everyone, their thoughts and opinions my differ, but that's okay. If anyone is entitled to anything in this world, it's their opinion. Peace, make love, not babies. iBL

and my 120K?

The problem is, EVERYONE has a real life income that has been reduced or completely gone. EVERYONE. Content creators, and I am one of them, don't need special privileges. And honestly, if anything could be done, LL could just freeze everything in place, charge no one anything, and stop all LL transactions in world so people could use their REAL hard to earn money for food, housing, cleaning supplies, MASKS, and just let everyone log in, have fun, I am sure LL can handle a couple months of that without going broke. They can even leave the purchase of Lindens open for the Linden markets to still function, but.. Hey! That's just a thought? Wendy, you're going to be defending yourself non stop with these posts, I don't see LL doing anything about it anyway. So the entire thread is moot. iBL

I'm going to pretend I did not see that. You write code, you should know better. THAT is perhaps the simplest part of the solution. How hard is it to do an SQL query to find account balances? Lol. You made me laugh. iBL

And there in lies the problem with the wording of your petition. I fear that this puts regular residents, the one's who actually fund land barons, content creators, designers, code junkies, well, everyone. IF these fees are lowered/waived for we, the content creators, I fear our customers will experience the brunt of this global lock-down more, you see, they too have lost their income, in fact, if they had not, we'd not suffer the loss of income as well. With that said. I love everything you've done for the community Wendy, I've been a long time fan, while mostly silent, I do appreciate all you've done, and do. And I don't think it's a bad idea, I just think more thought could have been put into it. For example, perhaps saying the reduction, or waiver should NOT be given to those who's Linden Balance shows they have the means to pay their fees. I know this does not help with land Barons who take payment with paypal and or other services, but it's something. Sure this means some of us will not qualify, but perhaps we could have worded it to say something like, a reduction in fee's based on the percentage of income lossed from month to month. So if last month I earned 1 million lindens, and this month I earn only 100,000 that's a 90% loss and a 90% fee reduction would be suggested. I fear giving fee waivers or reduction to land barons who rent to the general public, will not be passed on to the renters, that they will loose their homes, or business locations because they too can't afford their rent. So, this is a far more complicated ask than is presented in both your petition and this thread. Live long, and may the force be forever in your favor. iBL

obviously the owner change is one issue that can be addressed, and has. A second, I did not see mentioned in here, is whether or not your customer has, in her preferences, turned partlcle effects off, in which case she would not see the particles at all. Just a thought.
