Some probably do, especially newer ones, they probably come from the same marketing cesspools M does. But I bet there are a few of the remaining holdovers who probably feel the same things we do, and use SL for enjoyment and care about it. San Francisco Bay Area economy right now is -extremely- tough. Probably one of the worst in the US. It would take an absolute idiot of a Linden to say anything in dissent in public right now. There's a good 100,000 or more people that fill their cubicle in a moments notice, and be just qualified. _____________________

YES, I KNOW. (I got there by looking at Lindal's recent postings from her profile - but even that wouldn't have worked if she'd have posted a dozen or so times since then). That's not the point. How would someone just run across it from looking at SLA? I go to the Discussions page, and there are all topics there from a few minutes old to several days old, and Lindal's submission is nowhere to be found. Put another way, if I hadn't seen Lindal's post _here_ in RA, I'd have never seen her post on the blogorum. So... how would anyone else? And sorry, ArchTx - I wasn't yelling at you (or didn't intend to) - I was just frustrated with that ... that... stuff. Over there.  |

Well, I put my signature on this too. Not that it will mater much, but we can all hope. I just have hope that someone in LL has read all the comments and will make the new forums a "real forum". I have learned so much from the SL forums and hope it will continue in the new forums.

And as Lin's other SL partner, I agree whole-heartedly. Lin has said what so many of us in here have been thinking for quite some time. In other words LL, fix the problems, don't make new ones. |

The best thing anyone can do now is to go find those blog posts for articles with glowing praise of SL, follow the links and make a comment pointing out their poor customer relations. Only by embarrassing them in public will you have any chance of effecting change. That's an excellent idea. _____________________

This has all happened before and will happen again. Duzzat mean LL is a buncha cylons?!?  LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL!!! Come to think of it, if you watched BSG: The Plan, you know THEIR plan was just about as inept and doomed to failure as LL's plan. Muahahaha.... Personally, I'm keeping a close eye on the OpenSim world... knowing that sooner or later, OpenSim will become at least as advanced and sophisticated as SL, and more than likely will be competing directly and compellingly with SL... and probably running rings around them. At that point, LL may find themselves losing customer base on a massive scale as people go there to get away from all the kaka LL feeds them over here, and to take advantage of the wayyyy cheaper sims over there. At that point, LL will be forced to change, drastically, or go under. |
