I figured that out eventually, but is there actually a link to jira.secondlife.com from the main SL website, cause I couldn't find it?

And if not, why not?

There's a couple ways to get to it.. One is to click on Support from www.secondlife.com and there's a link to it there. Doesn't exactly jump out at you but it is there.

I like the idea of having more roads but the more I think about the logistics of it, the more I think it might be too tricky..

No. This is also a JIRA proposal, LOL! THAT proposal is here:

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/WEB-216

And the roads proposal is here: (I only just created it like 2 days ago, hence the low vote count)

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/MISC-602

Don't forget that to vote for issues, you have to login to JIRA using your SL account and password. Upper right of JIRA screen is login button.

we don“t need roads before they fix the laggy sim crossing that makes your vehicle fall into the ground for 5 seconds every few meters :)

I hope LL does not get upset with my automatic vehicle system when I let free my army of roving buses loose on the Linden roads.

I find a nice slow moving buss is the best way to chat with friends as you enjoy the scenery.


Dearly Darling,

I'm a bad driver in any universe. I'd love to take a bus tour!

You have a lovely afternoon!

Ever Yours,

Mrs. Showdog Tiger

IM your favorite Linden and tell him or her how much you really really like roads and want one put past your parcel so that all the road-travelling avatars can come see your shop and buy your stuff. They'll be sure to pass it on the Roadie Linden.

Oh, wait. SL doesn't make any money off of roads. Sorry. Maybe in 4 more years...

Anyone who likes roads that go nowhere can try Ranunculus. There is over 400 m of paved road with tunnels, a drive in restaurant, gas station and a funky cul-de-sac. Oh, and none of it was paved by LL. A neighboring sim, Yucca, has some nice road but all the signs are in Chinese.

Curious... how will you get permission from land owners who border the roads to pave them? Also, as adding a paved road may detract from looks of a sim in whole, wouldn't you need approval of all land owners in the sim?

Florenze, many sims already have protected lanes of space that were designed to be roads. Even many of the new continent sims have these protected "Linden Lanes." Why would you need bordering land owner permissions? They don't own the protected lanes. And no, you don't need everyone's approval. It is Linden land. Since when is SL a democracy? ;)

Not every sim has a road. Only sims that have road lands reserved as maintenance would be cared for.
