I agree with ya ,Bren.
Let the Linden mainland become the Family Friendly Corprate Playground, and have private continents where the owners and residents can decide what they want to go go on.

Thanks. The private continent idea appeals to me especially since I can't afford a sim or any major chunk of a sim. I don't want a lot of zoning, I like to experiment, but a bit of light regulation against things like ad farms and hyper lag from scripts would be okay.
I like being in a place where a lot of newbies are about, experimenting and playing. It's always refreshing. The north mainland is too settled for that now, so every once in a while I head for the new continent just to get the vibe.
Oh, and I want someone to bring back pretty terraforming. It is one of the best things about the oldest part of the mainland. Boring flatness doesn't appeal to me.
