Mentor bots for newbies can be a great addition for instance. But if they pop up in everyday SL without being easily recognizable as NPC's, no thanks.

Governance and Democracy in Second Life
Sid Nagy replied to Persephone Emerald's topic in General Discussion Forum
The apartment complex where I live in RL is owned by a home owner association. Each apartment owner owns an equal part of the building. Everything is decided at owner's meetings. Biggest problem every time: to get enough owners at the meeting to even be able to make decisions. A certain quota is needed to be present by law. And than we are not talking about peanut ownership of part of a sim, but 150 - 200K Euro apartments in RL. A lot of owners could not care less, and only participate in gallery gossip talk about how things should be handled. This is not a good idea for SL IMHO. -

Now if the would use AI to make the skin itself, that might do the trick (or in the near feature).- 22,013 replies

I don't know what they pay today either. I have a number from years ago too. If someone was a Mole as a hobby in that time, it was a nice compensation for the time invested. If one considered being a Mole as a RL job, not so much IMHO. But they might have changed it all over the years. So yeah, I agree asking directly is the best way if one is interested in a Mole function.

Damn, that is serious stuff that you have to deal with. I now can see, why switching of RL is hard for you when you go into SL. But still give it a try, it can be worth it. Second Life helps me forget my physical limitations for a few hours too at times. Sadly not always. At days that I'm depressed in RL, it is hard to leave that behind in SL. Life simply really sucks at times.

My 2 cents: Don't compare yourself too much with others. SL is IMHO about having fun for yourself with what you do, not if you have the same or better results than others. I'm a builder and merchant in SL. Am I the best builder in SL? No. Am I a top seller? No. Will I ever become the best builder in SL? No. Do I enjoy building? Yes. So I simply do it and enjoy it, even though I'm not the ace in the pack and never will be. Is every day in SL a success? Nooooooooooooooo. There are weeks and weeks that nothing seems to work out. Then I do other things inside or outside of SL until inspiration is back. Do what you like to do, without forcing yourself to become the best. Enjoy being who you are. No need for constant improvement. The rat race is something for RL. In my experience one tiny step at the time is enough to have fun in SL.

SL is a vanity platform. So one only can exaggerate what people like about bodies, but not what they don't particularly like.- 22,013 replies

So the Lab is so embarrassed about what they pay, that they have to put it under protection of a NDA? I know what they payed a few years ago, and I would be embarrassed too if it was me hiring. The Moles are worth their weight in gold for the Lab. But that is not exactly what they payed back then.

Thankfully that is something from the past here too. For many years already. Educating, teaching and raising a kid is very well possible without those barbaric methods.- 22,013 replies

There is a law in the Netherlands since a few months, that officially gives schools the right to forbid students to take a phone into the classroom. Confiscating them is legal, destroying them of course not. I would opt for returning them to the parents only. They will get peeved about their kids phone behavior real quick then, I guess.- 22,013 replies

AI will play a part in education in the future, no doubt about that. Maybe even a big part. But AI will not make the teacher profession obsolete any time soon either. It might change the requirements to become a good teacher but that is a whole different story.- 22,013 replies

And yes, tier payment in L$ is not possible. L$ have no real value for the Lab.

That makes sense. But on the other hand: Kudos for them if they can make a business plan out of it. But collecting all the land means paying a lot up front. If they want to do this they are better of going into the private estate business already I guess.
