Yes I'm thinking about changing worlds as of late. Somehow with recent events unfolding I'm trying to keep a positive view on things, but they seem to dull day by day. I know it's very hard to leave SL altogether as its hard to find an alternative to it. :eek:

I'm just asking if anyone has found a decent alternative world other than here?

no fair! :)

so far the only world that beats second life for me is first life. it's lag free, has a far superior physics rendering engine, and has perceivabley infinite precision. the only draw back is you can't rez skyscrapers and automobilesat will. plus it's much more expensive to make things.

If I knew of another, I'd be there. But I do not. :)

It would be cool if the metagrid of SL had some sort of alternative dimensions of its own -- the Previews are kinda like that, but eh... I just like that Twilight Zone shiznit.

Eins, just dump all your land, if you can. I know it helped me.
And maybe just take a small break. Come back, a bit more refreshed. Not reading the forums helps too.

I keep on the 4k+512m tier, am fine spending $25/month + the yearly fee, and I feel no ill taking breaks whenever I need them. RL breaks help a LOT.

But, if you're looking for things to do:
- I have a list of projects in SL that I will never get to that I would love to give away.
- Read a book
- Get a NetFlix subscription and watch all the movies that you've been meaning to see
- Try a new anime series (Evangelion, Escaflowne, Cowboy Bebop are my fav's)
- Write poetry
- Take pictures
- Take up a martial art
- Take a class in something you've wanted to learn

I have been practicing shadowwalking for years...no luck so far. Maybe I should try sliding instead.
