The World Islands are now coming to secondlife. Islands of all sizes will be available for rental but as of now Only a few of the areas will be open invite areas for people to rent. Other parts you must have a private invite to come live in The World. Would you rent one of the islands? How much would you be willing to pay for such a thing? There will be private marina's that certain islands share. Watch the video also it is going to be almost identicle. http://guide.theemiratesnetwork.com/living/dubai/the_world_islands.php

Very cool billy, I may be interested in renting. As far as how much I would pay, I guess that depends. Will there be a lot of clubs or stores chewing up resources and creating lag?
I guess I would be willing to pay up to 10 to 12L$ per square meter max, if the sim performs fairly well and is stable.

I am sorry, this place is for residential get-a-way's and clubs...although they will be allowed will be strictly policed on the scripts/lighting/etc that they use. This island will be highly monitored to make sure that the happiness of our residents comes above all. Also there will most likely be a group inside of the world that will listen to complaints from the residents and change them accordingly.

Let me know when you are at the stage of renting, I am willing to give it a shot if there are resource management policies in place. I would most likely want a residential island.

Will do. i think i worded my last response incorrectly. I was trying to say that a club will be allowed. But probably only one of them. And it will be seriously policed.

Sigh, I want an island, but with my luck if I buy one it will sink.

I love the idea of an invite-only area. It would help us feted inner coreans weed out the slackers
