From: Cocoanut Cookie I'm not quitting. I'm as much of a masochist as the next SL resident. I nominate that for the SecondLife Motto. |

Having read both the original announcement, and Robin's clarification in the Second Life Answers forum, I am taking a wait and see approach to this. Unless Linden Lab is going to be selling L$ the way that There sold Tbucks, I don't see a problem with the limited scenarios in which they have said they would sell L$. If they are removing most sources of L$ coming into the market, there is no way for them to introduce more L$ into the economy if necessary without offering some for sale. I don't see this as some terrible thing or a slap in the face of residents selling L$ - but again, this is only if this is something done rarely to help the economy. If they are regularly selling L$, that is a different story.

I have faith in Phil and his gang.
The only time I'd be happy to see Linden Lab sell L$ is if some money mad monster came along and held the L$ at ransom. Is that possible? Is it possible for somebody to buy up all the L$ and then control the market? Assuming there was an end to stipends, of course.
If so, then LL having the option to sell L$ will prevent the monster from even attempting to gobble up all our L$.
Am I talking bollox? Should I just go to bed?

Pol Tabla is a universal constant of rational thought.
And, additionally - always ask yourself, "What would Pol Tabla Do?"
Obviously, Linden Lab didn't take this sage advice. For shame!
