If Linden never makes a limit to how many SIMS this Anshe Chung can buy, then I guess in a year or so, Anshe will own it all. Thats not right. There should be a limit to how many Sims one company can buy. Especially after reading that WE CAN THANK ANSHECHUNG for the DWELL REMOVAL, IT MAKES YOU SICK!

Actually AFAIK she sells most of them as fast as possible outside of Dreamland which is MUCH smaller than the main grid.

Just a question.

If you had invested the time and money this person has into this business. The countless hours and dollars this group has invested, with the understanding that there IS no limit to what you can buy, how many sims you can buy, would you still be calling for these restrictions?
If you were in their shoes, would you still want to restrict the amount of sims one person can buy?

These people invested in this thing with an understanding of how it works, what the deal is.
It is completely unfair to change that deal because they're making money at it.

What have they done wrong? What have they done that deserves this punishment?

Okay that sounds insane, anyone to invest that much money in a GAME is crazy. Why would she do that. If you think SL will get you RL money think again and GET A REAL JOB!
(As much as we love to PRETEND, she doesn't work for Linden Labs, even though she believes she does)

I have read it, several days ago. Where did it indicate that Anshe's activities killed dwell? Abuse of the dwell system killed dwell.

Actually, if I lived in the states and could cash out properly, I would probably be making a couple of hundred dollars a month. Hey, it'd pay for cigarettes, at least!
I have a job. I also have hobbies. One of them is SL and the bonus is that I get paid for doing it! I don't spend hours and hours keeping track of my sales, I don't have to pay staff... all I have to do is create content, which is fun for me, put it in a vendor and sit back and wait, paying a minimal rent every couple of months. Sweet deal!

Couple grand a year ain't nothing to sneeze at.

She's made SL a real job, and earned $100,000US doing so. Its not insane, just uncommon.
