Is it time for a seperate, just for fun, laughs and enjoyment... Seperate grid? One just for entertainment purposes? I'm serious here, I would like to see and end to all the bickering and nastiness that money brings. I would love a grid where I pay 14.95 per mo. Get a stippend, get some dwell, and a nice 2048m2 plot of land. Where I can build more than a 14 prim cottage with a plant. If nothing else anyone who feels SL is a game would finally feel like they fit in. A seperate LL forum would also be a must.

Thoughts?

Easily doable by like-minded people. LLab shouldn't be in the business of sub-community development.

No.

It's not time for that.

But I thought you were leaving?

Man, why you always gotta be getting Enabran's hopes up like that?

You don't need a seperate grid, you just need to get yourself a few private islands.

I've made a load of cash myself but I wouldn't mind having a grid with the same mechanics SL had in the pre-1.2 world :P
Or, at least, less greedy idiots and more nice/clueful people.

Uh

Pick one. Either a MONEYLESS UTOPIA or PERSONAL PROFIT. Because it sounds like to me what you want is 'I want everything I want and for nobody to get their panties in a wad about it if I don't feel like paying what THEY want for it' and that's patently ridiculous.

Get out of my house. :(

Well, with the teen grid, the Wells Fargo thing, and other examples, I thought they were already.

If you can get 24 others to agree with this idea, I will buy an island for you guys. You will only have to pay $15 per month for a 2048m plot. I would like to name the island Euthanasia.

Why not they did for the teeny boppers. I am talking about an entirely different branch of SL. After all it would shut a lot of us up. Hmmmm I really thought ppl wanted that. I could be wrong :D.

Sounds like a plan, unfortunatly we would still be on the "make money or die" grid as those who are on the money making hamster wheel. I would prefer a Hippie Commune :D

Have you considered, perhaps, that SL is not the game you are looking for?

I don't think we needs a seperate grid. I just want to see the capitalists stop whining about the value of the linden. :)

Most definatly, but tell me what is so wrong with just wanting to build, and have fun? Why does that not seem to be allowed?

Perhaps SL is not the game for you.

Go get some legos. I already suggested blockland. Or just frikin' build. Seriously. Nobody is stopping you.

But you don't find SL fun as long as OTHER PEOPLE aren't doing exactly the same thing. If other people care about money, you seem to get turned off. That suggests that, perhaps, you aren't really ever going to be happy here.

One of us likes SL as it is. One of us has hated SL for the two years I've been here.

I'm not the one who hates SL, as a hint.

Which one of us do you think is more at odds with SL?

It's not allowed? News to me. That's pretty much what I do every time I log in. Little did I know I was being a subversive dissident.

What a load of bullshit. I have loved SL, I just do not love what SL is turning into. I have a right to say so just as much as you do. Just because I don't love the fucking make money or get out bullshit doesn't mean that I don't enjoy building in SL. If you think I am the only person in all of SL that feels this way then it's you who is dullisional about SL.
