Hello. I would like to know if you have considered dual pricing models for commercial and non-commercial entities? Billion dollar corporations will always be able to afford more in terms of island price and tier. Private individuals purchasing and building for entertainment purposes or with the hopes of making a small profit are impacted disproportionately by increases in tier. These financial stresses discourage inventiveness and risk on the part of long time Second Life developer-residents, commited to improving the terms of our shared virtual existence. While the influx of new capital that accompanies increased interest is welcome and keeps the servers humming, the lifeblood of this world has always been the talent and dedication of individual developers, many of whom require land to realize their creative visions. For this reason, I hope that you have considered a dual pricing model for corporate and invididual land holders.

Thank you. I look forward to your response.
