Um how about none of the above, I guess if your not going to also include "a creative artist enviroment" in that list then I'm not for any of your ideas either. Thanks for over looking a huge part of SL

Well, I think the point of option 5 was to post your own idea.

Your idea can be all of the above, none of the above, some of the above, or pecan pie.

And yes, I am fascinated by people who think SL should be about an artist movement, however I don't think it's workable at all (fascinating or not).

"User-created content takes the idea of leveraging player opinions a step further by allowing them to effectively prototype new ideas and features. Developers can then measure which new concepts most improve the products and incorporate them into the game in future patches."

SL should be all about the tools. Give us developers the tools and we will worry about the people who are here for the fun and games, the people who want easier faster ways to generate income, and the people who want to use SL as an educational tool.
The software should be an order of magnitude more flexible. Maybe next year...

All of the above, and anything else anyone wants to do. Oh, and cheese.

If I'm right about my suspicions, that's not far off.

What it says - a Second Life,anything else is just playing lego with pixels.


Where these quotes meet, is where LL (or at least Philip) is looking, I think.

I do like what Cybin said as well.

There should not be "a goal" for SL, just as there is none for RL. (nor should "we" create one... the ever mysterious social "we"...)

But nonetheless, the question was revealing.
