Whimsical: If you were the dictator of SL, what would it be like ?

I know that word "dictator" is rather offensive, but I mean it as in you had control over things, not LL.

If you could change things with one sweep of your hand, what would it be like ?

The camera would actually be constrained by walls.

Almost off-the charts slutty. Shame on you and congratulations. -- Trout

Ad farms would be destroyed, lower tier fees, premium stipend would be 500 and never change, and free 1024m instead of 512.

Also... not so many rollbacks lol

I would outlaw camping, bots and ad farms. I would also make lower steps in the tier groups so you can move up smaller amounts :)

Path cut and dimple would work across all axes, not just one. (pet peeve)

All support staff would be required to complete one critical project each before moving to the "fun stuff" - not that no one could do the fun stuff, but those the most successful at the most critical issues would have first pick on their next project.

One word: ZONING


I really like the zoning idea. Let's elect Kelli to be our philosopher queen!! Or king. Or whatever.

I'd like to sometimes have true privacy when online. Flip a switch and no one can see that I'm online. I can just hang out with whoever I want and not be disturbed. And no one would be able to enter my house with my permission. No way, no how.

Dictator? Have to work on the details, but I'm pretty sure it would involve bowls of fruit and being gently fanned with palm fronds. Oh, and silks. Lots and lots of silks.

In all seriousness, the first thing any self-respecting dictator needs to do upon taking control, is get themselves an awesome dictator hat.

Once you have the Hat, everything else will fall into place.

Oh, and yeah, after the Hat, I'd be banning adfarms and bots, and hiring some responsible adults to manage the customer service and quality control divisions.

and the shiny boots. what good is the hat without the shiny boots?




reinstate free two week trial, hire competant CS people, hire Nicholaz to fix all the bugs, do away with AR system. thats it off the top of my head for now.

1. Public humiliation for griefers and ad farmers then permanent bans

2. I completely agree with zoning

3. Require all female clothing designers to create an equal amount of male clothing.

4. NO BAN LINES (ducks and runs)
