That's what you want anyways, isn't it, Jauani? Make the mainland non-viable, so that all of the large mainland projects will have to rent from you, right? |

What if he doesn't want any more land, or would find it burdensome to step up to the next tier level? well, like i already posted much earlier in this thread, i don't think he should have to. i posted in favour of your proposal #1, whereby everyone would get 10% more land, not just those who get such large tiers that signing up two alts becomes worthwhile for the exploit. _____________________

I have some trouble using the term "exploit" in this context. After all, the 10% bonus is available for everyone, not just for a selected few! This would be throwing in the 10% bonus with things like, say, having the ability to pay for Premium annually and get a discount, instead of paying every mount. Is that an "exploit" as well? For me, an "exploit" is when you use or manipulate things for your own advantage (that's one possible definitions of an "exploit"  . In this case, everybody can take advantage of the bonus, it's not just for a "selected few", all you need is... a group. Rich or poor, ownling much land or just a few tiny bits, there is no difference at all!The reasoning behing the 10% bonus was to encourage group creation. That definitely has worked _____________________

$9.95 + $9.95 + L$100 = 10% land bonus
Seems fair to me. _____________________

I don't know why the common concensus seems to be "Because some are abusing it, take it away from everyone". This goes for dwell/traffic, the 10%, first land, llTeleportAgentHome - you name it. Because there are some abusers of the above functionality, various people are screaming to take it away from everyone.

Two or three people sharing an opinion in the forums is not a "consensus". Well, even if there are twenty or thirty _____________________

I say keep the 10% bonus. If three people can stay in a group long enough to get it, they deserve it.
