From: Nolan Nash OMG! The Brits know about Willis! / me hangs head in shame. Uh. Yeah. A quote from some little guy of 50ish who used to play a 12 year old when he wasn't in jail or running for governor of California. Or something. |

Is it morbid to say I had a crush on Kimberly Drummond?, I dug her painted on Jordache jeans!.
I punched a chick in the face. Cause I am a security guard. What YOU talkin bout Willis? Hopefully not Park Avenue...

From: Oz Spade Smarmy isn't used enough in this day and age.
Nore is Wonky, or nore.
SPEAK THE QUEENS ENGLISH! Indeed. Nobody smarms any more. It's just -not cool- these days. From: Kris Ritter Actually, Lisse, Shona was the one I was thinking of as an example of both my points
If you click on it or select it from the dropdown, you end up across the river with no access. The nearest telehub to Shona that actually gives you access to it is well in excess of 1km away. That's why I like livin' in Shona. It's remote, no shops, no clubs, no barons. Just peace and quiet and lots of running water. ^_^ .... Er, pardon me, I have to use the facilities.

Wow! How much? Telehub land "cheaper than cheap!!!" A mere 50 L$ per sq. meter! It has waterfront, and is near mountains. It's also a short 1500 meters from the nearest telehub! A real steal...  |

Land For Sale -- Fire Sale! Please buy this land, I need to send money to China so that my uncle can have new glass eyes inserted. Besides, I wink at you, sailor. No extra cost.

From: Land Baron
5. Newbie scamming where a baron will approach a new user and offer them rock bottom money for a plot that can be sold easily at a higher multiplier. "Hey newbie, sell me your land for $3L per meter! Its more than the others will pay you!"
Actually I had someone that found some land that was in the middle of a transaction, and the lady had it setup to sell for cheap and all the guy had to do was come in and buy it. But she left or something and it was left unattended. So the guy bought it and told me he was selling it for a pretty low price, 900 for 1024 plot. Well, when the lady came on he was talking to her and said that it wasn't his to begin with and a bunch of other broo ha ha. So, not only did I lose my FIRST LAND I lost out 900 L$ because she said it was hers and not her money to give to me. So then the guy took off. Sad thing is is that he has the same last name of mine. |

**For Sale**
Yeah, that must be really annoying, I wonder who could be
**For Sale**
involved in such business.
**For Sale**
When you think about it, spamming land with **For Sale** signs really smacks of desperation and poor business acumen.
**For Sale**
But, some success must be the random reinforcement these truly sad individuals need
**For Sale**
to continue their actions, sorta like how spammers on the internet use the 100 responses
**For Sale**
from their multi-million emailings to justify their abhorrent behavior.
**For Sale**
