I'm tiering down and selling all my land.
raisons: SL's latest degradation, er, "update" (v1.9) was the last straw for me. It's just not enjoyable for me anymore.

I'll drop in from time to time to check on the progress (or lack of) of SL. If they will get their act together and make this game enjoyable again, then maybe...

Gassho.

Pratyeka, sorry to hear that. You've built a great many things in SL. Is it just cumulative SL fatigue?

The Milarepa Land Trust might have space for your great sky mandala, if that helps. Is there anything else we could do to help?

It's not fatigue, but the technical promises that LL keeps making and breaking. Performance has been getting worse since v1.7 and I can't even do now what I used to be able to do easily then... things like flying, local lighting, etc.... hell, I can't even set my drawing distance greater than 64m if I want to fly without lag, and flying with such a limited drawing distance, well, I'ts just not enjoyable.

no disagreement there. Plus my mac keeps freezing after the most recent 1.9 update -- can't tell if it's SL or RAM gone bad...

thanks for making your creations free on SL exchange. We're setting up a prim cooperative at Drak Yerpa so that dharma creators can trade materials. Currently is a warehouse about 400m high, but probably will be a vending machine to save prims, everything free. Interested in contributing?
