Stephen King could write a story about this... he's the master of the macabre, after all.

Ahhh.. King.. I was reading him at seven years of age. I'm not embarrased to admit he is one of my favorite authors. Even during his lull periods. hehe Torley.. SL *will* be gone one day. Set your fears to ease by knowing that just because SL is gone, many of US will still be here. And will always be in your life. Take that as a promise or threat, however you may. hehe *HUGS* ![]() _____________________

I have gotten a handle on my fear, and I have changed my views from doom to lets see what happens.
Now I am going to bed. _____________________

My biggest beef with this is that people are getting so worked up about money in SL.
I've always thought that SL should be about, oh, I dunno, creating, and expressing oneself? :\ _____________________

I've always thought that SL should be about, oh, I dunno, creating, and expressing oneself? :\ I certainly appreciate creating and expressing oneself... fortunately or unfortunately or a mix of both (most likely this), creation and commerce are Thaimese twins. It's the innovative ideas that are sparklights for mass money, not to mention a plethora of lawsuits and controversy. There is a parallel to that in SL, although accelerated... and there are certainly creative, expressive people in SL who earn a sizable amount of money from their art. Or, if they're not, DO deserve it I feel, because really, pats on the back only go so far. ^_^ It's such a volatile blender. _____________________

Yes, I have no problem with creators getting paid for creating. I have a problem with leeches that do nothing, and expect to get paid for it.

Yes, give the leeches a little to spend on products.
A LITTLE. _____________________

I was too busy working on the Trampoline Integrated Transport System proof of concept to be afraid...
So now I'm just gonna take this as a life lesson: Whenever I feel down, afraid, or bored, I'll just play with my T.I.T.S. Siggy. _____________________
