for this poll, i'm using the three month period as an arbitrary measure for L$ buying habits and an SL age of one year as an arbitray measure of old player and new player.

Have you bought more L$ than you have sold in the last 3 months?

hopefully down the road LL will be able to provide us with more accurate information from th activity on the Lindex.

I said no... even though I haven't bought any nor sold any, technically making them even.

being even or having sold more makes you a "no." what i want to see is if the poll will show a pattern of net buyers in realtionship to their age.

perhaps i should have made the poll private to protect peoples privacy. i made it public really in case people wanted to confirm the age, but maybe this might discourage answers.

Yep, I would agree. Most people don't want others to know how much money they have spent or made, even if it is just did you make any money.

Yes I have bought lots, several hundred 000s of Linden$, and at regular intervals, all to buy land, and I was sorry to see GOM go, as it was a great idea and very simple and efficient.

I have bought lots of Linden $ but never sold any or cashed any back into my 1L currency

I've never sold Lindens and probably haven't bought Lindens in about a year. I am one of those shoppers who just loves new things. I give away clothes, hair and items all the time as well. It makes me much happier than the few US dollars i could get from selling my Lindens.

I've sold exactly one artwork for 120L and have bought over 35kL. I think that counts as a deficiency. :)

No. I sell once or twice a week, (not huge sums) and I've never bought.
