That's it, I"m getting a car. You bums can wait in the rain for the bus.

I'm gonna catch a Ride with Jesus if it's all the same to you.

It's ok.. on reflection I forgot a train is likely more stable in it's heading then a bus or SL.

Sl is just not easily defined by a vehicle. :(

Oh, I dunno... I seem ta recall some movie wherein the survivers of a plane crash actually cannabilised each other.....


Why is everyone here b'ginnin' ta resemble peanur butter cookies?

If not, they can rent my slot during the shutouts!

I like my vehicles like I like my women; built for comfort rather than speed. Dirigibles are the only way to travel.

That is a serious peanut butter cookie addiction/fetish you have. I would go see someone about it - preferably a baker.

There was an apocryphal tale involving a person's severed leg, placed in someones bed for a prank by medical students. Not sure gross, horror stories violate PG standards, seeing as books don't tend to have ratings. Best to play safe I expect.

I don't know, but a wild storm has just rolled in and lightning has struck a litle too close to where I am sitting,so I'll take a pass on any more Jesus jokes for the evening

wow - rough thread.

Basically if you are going to do a "Log in que" and you want to base it on who pays the most for their service / etc / bla bla bla.

This should be the order of ejecting/ not allowing in-

Bots in excess of 5 per IP/Person

All Bots

No payment on file accounts less than 90 days old

No payment on file accounts

Payment on file but non-premium

non-conseriege premium

Conseirge owners who own less than 10 islands

Everyone.




-------------------------------------

Alternatively you could do a time zone based login

Where you set a time, say 2AM - 8AM where people in that time zone received a low-priority logon status.


--------------------------------------

Or you could just do it first come / first serve ..

Basically create a logon "QUE" where instead of timing out and shipping you off to the back of the line, the viewer keeps track of when you first attempted to log in and as people logged off, you would get your turn.


------------------------------------------

I think the first come / first serve is fairest - its quite a bit better than the try your luck system we have now.

Whenever I see someone argue against free accounts I'll just assume it's going to be about NPIOFs since they likely account for half of the active accounts and it's the obvious group to put restrictions on.


Paying accts flatlined around 90k of total population 13 million (estimated to be 90% inactive) with 408,000 accts registered in March alone.

Seems probable paying accounts are way way less than 50%.

http://secondlife.reuters.com/stories/2008/04/15/sl-posts-strong-economic-growth-on-dwindling-enrollments/

Still think their economic numbers are skewed by double counting (buy & sell) and factoring in sim and openspace sim purchases.
