Well- nice thought but doubtfull in a BIG way that they would act on it since to them it is a Feature and not a Bug - but what the hell- I'll add in my pittiful voice- not like they give a damn really.

TBH- I never look at the damn thing so on me at least what ever they put there is a complete waste of their time.

Thanks! Well, VWR-14039 is a "new feature request", not a bug report, so in general, yes, they ignore these. I created it partly to give LL an easy way to make it more palatable, if it really blows up in their faces, and partly to give residents a JIRA for feedback on the feature.

I'm not religious about it, myself. Though I did feel a little disappointment when I saw it. What's next, GM?

Personally, I think it's time we stop giving LL ideas on how to make things more palatable.....they never listen anyway. Let it blow up in their faces, maybe that is the only way they will wake up.

Yes, it just wasn't meant to be. He couldn't handle my 2007 rez date. He said his friends made fun of him for robbing the cradle.

Besides the usual cross section of rich relatives and do gooders in far off places of the world that want to give me money- I got this today:

A Stimulus Story


It is the month of August, on the shores of the Black Sea. It is raining, and the little town looks totally deserted. It is tough times, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit.



Suddenly, a rich tourist comes to town.



He enters the only hotel, lays a 100 Euro note on the reception counter, and goes to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one.



The hotel proprietor takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt to the butcher.



The Butcher takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the pig grower.


The pig grower takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the supplier of his feed and fuel.


The supplier of feed and fuel takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt to the town's prostitute that in these hard times, gave her "services" on credit.


The hooker runs to the hotel, and pays off her debt with the 100 Euro note to the hotel proprietor to pay for the rooms that she rented when she brought her clients there.


The hotel proprietor then lays the 100 Euro note back on the counter so the rich tourist will not suspect anything.



At that moment, the rich tourist comes down after inspecting the rooms, and takes his 100 Euro note, after saying that he did not like any of the rooms, and leaves town.


No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now without debt, and looks to the future with a lot of optimism..


At least the hooker and the hogs made out okay.

You'd never make a banker, Amar - the hotel proprietor is 100 Euro down because the hooker got her room for nothing effectively.

The hotel guy got to clear two debts, so he did come out on top. He got to pay the butcher and he got to pay back the 100 he "borrowed" from the guest. Otherwise, he would have spent some time in jail where he might have really gotten.............
