1. How much L$ will it take to increase your land cap?

Say I'm 512m2 over my limit. If I paid RL dollars for that extra space, I would be paying an additional $5 a month. How much L$ would I have to pay to cover that extra 512m2?

2. What are ratings for now?

Since there are no taxes and your grant is based on your subscription, how are ratings involved in all this?

3. Which plans do you expect to make a profit from?

For short term income, it seems LL will get a big chunk from a rush of $9.95 flat fee users and current users who switch to life before 1.2 releases. So in the long term, are you expecting most of the users go with the $9.95/month + $5/month (for the additional 512m2)?

4. How will you go about rewarding users with RL cash?

This is a very subjective issue since it can vary from how cool a person is to how good their build looks. Dwell doesn't really reflect a 'good' build since it just shows where people hang out and people can hang out anywhere regardless of how good the build looks.

5. How often will you be doing prim counts on the land and how will the users be notified of their prim status?

As far as number 5 goes Ironchef, there will be a counter associated with your avatar that tracks prim use ALL THE TIME. So if you attempt to rez an object and are at your prim cap, it simply won't rez. I believe they said you will get a system chat msg if you are at prim cap and try to rez.

This was stated by a Linden in another thread by the way, so I'm not inferring. :)
