From: someone

Philip Linden: I think that things this group may do should be uniformly public.
Philip Linden: Therefore we will look at what is OK for all of SL to read.
Robin Linden: Plus, that would put this group at an unfair advantage relative to the rest of the community, which it sounds like we're trying to avoid.


Also.. I don't think Prokofy has any interest in FICCing it up. I think he's just like a lot of the other people there and is very enthusiastic about SL. I suspect that pretty much went for everyone there.

Anshe had a point as well. I don't think it was a power grab, I think she was just having a hard time with all the recent noise and chaos. But, the solution was wrong though I'm sure the intentions were good.

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions."

Maybe I overreacted a bit, but I just dislike people starting to think they are somehow qualified to take decisions for me.

Heh heh. To be honest, I keep breaking out in laughter at all this.

I'm not sure why. My wife keeps giving me weird looks, but for the life of me, I can not think of a way I could possibly explain it to her.

No, no, Anshe definitely said she was better than the rank and file in SL.

===
Anshe Chung: Most of us here have invested considerable time, emotional capital, social capital and financial capital in this country
Anshe Chung: This is what we feel makes us stakeholders. More like you and in contrast to e.g. merely tourists, users, consumers, players etc

Yes! Thank God they are still around, or silly, selfish, small minded, little people whose agendas are based upon pettiness and a quest for power and money above all, would be the demise of this virtual community. They would suck it dry and leave the husk to dry in the sun and blow away.

WHAT ABOUT MY MONEY??!!!!!
