The end of Club Elite

You could not be more wrong, Hiro. The land owners in Federal suffered through sub 25 fps daily for nearly a year. Club Elite was hell and I am glad it is gone. I feel sorry for anyone unfortunate enough to be in DaBoom. There is no excuse for the Edge not to be in a private sim.

When will you comprehend that just because you can do something doesn't mean you should? Knowing that a large group of people, along with scripts, lights, etc.. causes massive lag, why would you build something that would purposely affect everyone around you in the same sim? Do you just not give a fuck, because it's your land? Anyone with that attitude is an ass, and any club that acts like that deserves to fail. Stop making apologies for bad behavior, Blake.

I am Totally Blonding now......some get this topic back on track.

Perspective:

... maybe I was spoiled with all the great Cartel parties.

ty David for setting me right on the war, i dont watch tv much here so am not up to date on it all, and it is hard to understand me most times lol just gotta learn to read blonde guess loll...

I don't make apologies for anyone, and I certainly don't make apologies for game Policy. Your suggestion of putting Clubs in private Sim is fine, however; policy dictates that they do not have to. Maybe they don't have the money to buy a whole sim in anycase, people have a will and are going to do what they want, I not defend actions of disregard, but; Linden Labs implements the Policies. What you suggest is still Zoning if they are forced to buy Private Sims. The only way they will be forced is to abide by Policy and zoning restrictions and this will be an endless debate until something is done about it.

Your opinion on what people should and should not do is irrelevant to the problem; the problem is there, it needs to be addressed by Linden Labs, not the Land Owner. Until they change such policy; the land owner has a right to build what they want. Period! Doesn't matter if I agree with it or not. Policy is Policy. There is no Second Life Law regarding "Disturbing the Peace" or "Disturbing the Lag."

There is no Second Life Law regarding "Disturbing the Peace" or "Disturbing the Lag."

Disturbing the Peace
Every Resident has a right to live their Second Life. Disrupting scheduled events, repeated transmission of undesired advertising content, the use of repetitive sounds, following or self-spawning items, or other objects that intentionally slow server performance or inhibit another Resident's ability to enjoy Second Life are examples of Disturbing the Peace.

Ok, great; there is a Disturbing the Peace Policy, however; it does not state that a entity such as a Club is doing so by existing within the current policy guidelines that I know of. Places of resident and places of business are not zoned, however; I think it is necessary just like in real life...that's why it exists, and that's why it is an issue here.

Been waiting for that club to be destroyed since it started so many months ago, I remember how when it started BigJohn employed a terrorist tactic to gain land, driving people out of the sim by blasting one tupac song over and over and building the biggest ugliest build he could, people left in anger and he bought their land. Starting up what would be known as the shitty-club phenomenon (to me anyways), bringing a new age of lack-luster building and loose ugly women.

Club Elite is no more....mmmm that sounds so nice.

One down, Three-hundred more to go.

to all you people that hated elite and are saying nasty things about it....i have two words for you...grow up!!!!....

if you hated elite so bad why do you waiste your time bashing it in forums...

don't you have time to do anything else better...

and if Club Elite was so bad...then why don't you try building your own club...

CRITICS like you should shut up and try to do better if you don't like what people have made....

i bet you just waiste your time complaining and bashing out of jealousy because you can't build or even run a club...

.so you bash out of envy...so just shut up, grow up and build your own club..

.I'D LOVE TO SEE YOU DO BETTER....when you have done that...then i'll hear your critism.

Trying to silence an opinion you dont like is a scary thing to popularize.

I remember the beginning of club elite. Mostly because it was right next door to me. and the lag killed me everytime I tried to build my masterpiece (of the week).

I talked to BJ about it. That of course never got fixed, but a friendship grew. I *do* remember the horrors of the CE when it started. I also remember the return-griefing that was spawned by multitudes of people so intent on doing what they thought was "right" that they resorted to the same dirty nasty tricks that they were woefully berating BJ for employing in the first place.

*smiles* Ahh the good old days.

Club Elite was special. Not because it was unique. Because it was the grand-daddy. Like the old shipley tree. A part of SL that carried over from Beta, that fought through all the changes in the game. Fought, adapted, gave way when it had to, but fought nonetheless.

It wasnt a pretty place.
It wasnt a remarkable place.
It wasnt a particularly exciting place.

But it did have it's niche. Was I ever a fond visitor? No. Will I miss it? Of course. CE has a place in my SL expereince, in the SL experience of MANY.

Remember - if you loved it, it was there for you love. if you hated it, it was there as a target for your anger and venting of spleen.

Either way, it served to make an impact on the game. And if only because if that, it will be missed. Anything that adds more depth, history.... anything that increases the virtual reality of a place is special. Goor or bad. So yes, CE will be missed.

Now how do I go about missing the Edge? *winks*

..i'd just tune out the meanspirited comments sky. pretend it's like the chirping of small birds...because it is...
