I would agree with all of this except the "what Linden Labs is aiming for is the ability to let them have Eminent Domain yet never have to exercise"

this is clearly not the case. They enforce their arbitrary-ness from everything including banning and forum deletion.



Ain't that the truth. I had some real "A" material that LL deleted from the forums recently. It was part of a thread that may be an uncomfortable subject for some residents. God forbid someone may have to read something uncomfortable.

I think this is part of the 'distillation of achievables" process. It's LL's world, your imagination builds it and long as it doesn’t impact LL's bottom line it’s anything goes.

Just implement a technical solution. Like a "Freebie" checkbox that once checked makes the item permanently free to copy and/or locks down the next owner permissions and/or sets the price to 0 permanently. People abusing the resale of freebies, right or wrong, only serves to kill the spirit/growth of more freebies being available as others are less willing to create these items.


I have a feature request, that addresses this issue.
