Again for the 4th time, I thought I had put in Building/Creatvity/Artistry but I missed it in the #3 Option, I even had it written down on a piece of paper to put it in the Survey.

Some have the perception that building/creating isn't my top priority; you're right or obviously I wouldn't have missed it. I do not play this game to build and sell items. Im not going out and buying 1k U.S.$ in software to be able to make things, im not going out and spending $300 U.S. for PHotoshop or whatever to build things. Im not going to sit and study and learn or take a class in Photoshop or learn LsL to script or make items. Some have experience in this area, and this game appeals to them in this way.
If I wanted to learn Photoshop and other programs/languages, I would go to College and do it for a real life living. Me personally I am only here for the social interaction. If I want to build something; i'll hop over to EQ2 on my Artisian, though I understand the items are prefab and is in no way as creative as using Photoshop or other software. Im not in this game to support myself.

If I had Photoshop, I may like it; I don't know. I understand those who do though; I love Art myself. But when I get home from work; I don't want to be staring at a Photoshop screen. If I had it at work to learn on, that would be a different story.

I didn't mean to discount all you builders and creators out there. Use option #3. I don't mean to intentially put it in the background as unimportant either; that was my hindsight and thought I had put it in there. I appreciate creators very much or this game wouldn't be what it is. I may even one day do it myself, but; at this time I am enjoying socializing just like I do here on the forums. Im sure a few of you had previous experience in Web design or Computer Programming before implementing your talents in this game, some may have taken an interest after learning about this game, I actually took Computer Programming in College, but; I hated Cobol, I did not have the patience to debug 70 out of 400 statements, though Basic and RPG was fairly easy, it's like being a Doctor, you have to Practice, I am very artistic though and if I did anything it would be something to do with Photoshop and would probably make mens clothing, to each his own.

If I could have redone the Survey, I would have put Building/Creation/Artistry in there as these people are very important to Secondlife. So in appreciation, please use Option #3 you should not be discounted. Vindi Vindaloo is a designer and I appreciate her dearly. Love you babydoll.

Blake, I have an Idea for you since you like to do polls so much...

#1 Make a thread requesting Questions for a poll..Ie If you were to make a poll what questions would you ask in reference this topic.

#2 Collect all those questions and formulate a balenced set of polling questions.

#3 Enact the poll.

This may give you a better demographic of what your attempting to achieve.

Just some friendly advice....

Shadow

That's a good point, and this Poll wasn't easy by no means, there are alot of variables and I knew I would leave something out by accident. Though I could formulate a Poll via your method possibly, im not sure how many would give a damn and contribute to a Thread called "Tell me what Poll questions you would like me to ask in regards to such and such."

Horny when you made this poll were you?

What about creating stuff, i.e. clothes, scripting etc. It's not about the money, the fun of creating stuff is a major draw into Second Life, especially as it's the only virtual world I know with an actual programming language

Anyway, the freedom to build things, that's what keeps me in Second Life.
