Someone mentioned they do not see people leaving for business reasons like search...they are lucky. I have lost several SL friends inworld over the last two years due solely to the economics of SL. It started with the homestead fiasco and then just got worse every month.
I shop for my business and every day find stores that were, are no longer. Or long time merchants whose sims are now for sale.
Now, maybe some have just moved and I can't find them in search...and that is huge issue for everyone, shoppers and merchants. At the very minimum search should be able to provide us with a reliable directory of businesses. If you type in a shops name it should appear front and center, not be buried 20 pages back while totally irrelevant words and locations are upfront.
