What i would like to see in SL

Well i'm kinda new to SL but i like it so far, though i have some thoughts on what is SL missing:

*** Avatars should die ***
It should be possible to kill avatar and avatar should die of an old age. And also avatar should be able to catch a disease (HIV?). What would create health care industry. Health insurance and good stuff like that. Players then would be more careful with their avatars.

*** Avatars should eat ***
Avatars should eat. That would create a whole new food industry. Fast food places, homeless feeding institutions and stuff like that. Avatar should die of starvation if not fed

*** Stealing should be possible ***
Avatars should be able to steal. Then the world would need police and detectives, that would offer a lot of new jobs. The whole legal system would be cool, serve and protect and shit

I'm a programmer myself and i know that whose features would take immense time and effort to develop, but think how much cooler SL would be!

1)

What???

2)

What???

WHAT???

Come on you have to be joking. It's bad enough we have griefers doing things left and right, the last thing we need is these same people stealing from others.

E

You can steel it real life, that should be possible in SL too!

Hi Damian, and welcome to Second Life.

I am going to venture to guess, that as you spend more time here and become more invested in your avatar and your inventory, that you will come to understand that the permanent loss of your identity (through death) and your posessions (though theft) would be a very bad thing for Second Life.

Only if it takes the same time for my avatar to die as it will take for me to die, 70 years down the line I probably won't be playing SL anymore =P

However, if you want to eat, or get sick then you can do this via scripted items. You could market a "Real life" HUD item for avatars, which prompts them to find something to eat (from compatible food stores) or get medicine/treatment from compatible health-care centres. I'm not sure it's the job of SL to force it upon everyone, because most people come here because it's NOT real-life.
The other advantage of the mod is you can turn it off =)

NO But we do go back to home point

We do in some meaning of the way


*** Stealing should be possible ***

NONONONONO this is too much like wow etcd where people cause all sort of problems.
shakes head this is a nono

Well make your own game and stay there with a few of these features

BYE

1: We do... if you were standing in a health damage able zone and get killed by the following... A) Shot, B) Run over by a large heavy physical prim, C) Tried to fly through a wall at higher speed.
But then youre only send to Home location. An actual death to your avatar would be banned from SL where they delete your account afterward.


2: Eatting seem like a good idea... but it can be bothersome for some people, forced out to eat because they wanted to have fun & goofing off, not worrying about hunger... although our RL hunger may be enough to bother us. Also it can lead to SL's inworld hunger problems where they don't have money to buy foods.


3: Stealing is already possible in SL... they are called Hackers and Skin Rippers. Try to keep in mind... Linden Labs already stated that Second Life is NOT a game... it's a platform. Thus everything in SL is real serious as RL when it come to stolen items.

I don't want to sound like a witch here but...if you want your character to age and die, either go to an area that has death enabled (and even then you won't really DIE die...) or go play Sims 2. Really, think about this for a minute, who would want to play a game where you shell out all this money (a great deal of it RL money for some people in here) for clothes and what not. only to die and lose everything? It's a dumb idea.

well tghats if llabs catches them......some times yes some times no.......its a platform?
Well I call it a game and a business......

GREAT IDEAS *warning sarcasm alert*

Yep and while they are at it, they should expand the breast bouyancy slider so that my tits hang down to my belly button like in RL. A "wrinkles" slider would make my avatar much more realistic also.

No TY. I have mirrors in the house to show me what reality is.

Remember the sims online? That failed. Miserably.
