Hi, When i travel/explore/fly through second life and when i finally think i found a nice spot, a few meters away there is something that ruins it
- a club
- useless items
- Malls

Wouldn't it be nice if we could have one sim that is beautiful. For the people who dont go to nightclubs, for the people who enjoy beauty.

The new sim should have
- Small Town
- Trees (all over sim)
- water.
- planned housing.
- parks.
- gardens
- waterfalls
- mountains
- etc.

Lance, I know you have that whole "thug" thing going on, but does that mean you have to follow this guy around and troll each of his threads?

Well, the idea is to get people of likemind together, form a group, and group purchase a sim.

I think it would be cool if people could get volume discounts if they buy as a group, for example, it just takes 20 accounts at 9.99 / month to own a whole sim.

I think we'd find a lot more group zoning type activity going on if we did that.

Quite true,

Lance LeFay has become the forum pest. Lance, have you written one positive post yet?

Just abuse report him and ignore him. The lindens will deal with him soon enough.

There have been sims that had regulations on how and what could be built in them. I'm not sure if they are still around though. The name of one escapes me at the moment.

Plenty, look around.


And I just realised this guy was the one that made the rediculous thread about Rich/Poor. Look at that one, and see that I am not the only one that finds this man funny :rolleyes:

Boardman is a good example.

They've done a pretty good job of fixing it up, too. Lindens need to hand over control to the open air market though, it's the only thing that looks bad!

Taber is lovely and very similar to your concept. I rent a place there just to have somewhere to go when I get the chance to log in.

So you don't look at the thread-starter's name before you go on the nightly troll? You are bound to troll one of your own threads soon by accident. Oh.. and "rediculous"... *snicker*

Oh, BTW - you are becoming more annoying with your spell checking troll-style than the Microsoft Office Assistant. :D

Woops.

I currently have the worst cold of my life, so I'm bound to slip up at least once.


And yeah, on reflection, I've been a bit of a spaz today.

No problem, just thought you could use a bit back at ya ;)

Oh, and I know everyone says this but *echinacea* --- I was once a cynic, but the the church of echinacea has lulled me with its sweet cold destroying ways!
