SL decided a long time ago to build roads on main land. The construction work is still going on and some sims have roads. Some are still waiting. Like RL - people with a sense for commercial benefits sliced the adjoining parcels into the smallest plots possible to sell as billboard space for ridiculous prices. At Katipo you can see the result of this commercial freedom.
Personally i think the result is terrible since only the sex industry is interested in advertising and frankly don't care about how that looks or whether people might be offended by the message or image. I'm not against sexual freedom but 'Do what you want at home but not in the front yard.'
I would like to start a campaign against small plots to get rid of the rubbish SL i turning into. Please support this and clean SL.

Unfortunately not a campaign I can support.
I used to own a very small plot of land. Whilst I agree Ad farms are ugly, I had a legitimate use for my small plot. I kept a hippovend server there,covered by a prim with the same texture as the surrounding land. It was very useful to me to keep a second copy of my vendor server in world as it allowed me to keep selling if the sim my main server was down.

Lets get rid of Linden roads, they seem to be the magnet that draws the majority of these ad plots.
