Could I ask somone at LL to...

Please Throw together a map of the environment (with scale NFO, & noted points of interest) that could be used for civic project planning, and post it on the main site under community?

hey, we could start a zoning board, "Only things that go 'pop' are allowed to be built here without a license, and they should be less than 2 stories tall and include 60% window space..."

What kinda civic planning are ya thinking?

I agree that it would be cool to have some orgainized places in LW, but unfortunately, the only way to enforce "planning rules" is to make sure that you own all the land, and thats darn expensive. what needs to be done is a few dedicated users start building a "shell" of a town, where other users can set up shop, and it is known that if you want to do x activity, go here. find a emptier server and start planning. lay out "streets"

Maybe this should be a start in the "projects forum"

I would like to see a big shiny "downtown ala metaverse" with 500 m tall buildings with gigantic flickering animated 3d billboards for japanese-inspierd soft drink ads.

and flying cars

And it's already an eyesore!
With 500m tall buildings the whole world might as well be indoors.

And after all that hard work they did on the sun!
