Something that I should probably point out explicitly: if you have less than 1k scripted objects, you do not need this service!
This is targeted at projects with at least 1000 objects containing the same scripts. If you have less than 1000 objects, you can do it by hand.
YOU SIR, are a funny guy!!! I just made on the other night! Took a grand total of 25 mins to build and 5 mins to implement. My suggestion to you, spend a little more time in SL and come up with something NEW! Oh one more question... where did you figure out these prices and what you were gonna charge? Wait lemme guess... you pulled em out of your...

Down Nexus, down boy. Insane pricing or not, Azelda/Hugh happens to be a friend of mine. And he is quite an agreeable chap. Spends all his time coding and whatnot. Just let the damn thread die already.

Wow, that's a connection I would never have guessed. One guy selling scripts for very high L$ prices or US$, the other says he gives stuff away free...and they get along??? Holy cow!  None of this matters though, if this thread is any reflection of the market at all, the market has rejected the pricing completely...

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS!

Rejected is a soft word. Rebuked? I MIGHT see what they are asking as happening back BEFORE 1.2 but you I see a lot of people going 'oh all these people got huge refunds for taxes pre 1.2. Lets price REALLY insanly high'. Well. They kinda took out everyone's stipends. Basic 500 + average bonus accounts to maybe 1-3k bonus. So add that all up and you STILL better be hella good selling each month to come up for paying for that asking price

Execrated? Ostracized? Shunned? Abhorred?

One question, do you think we are made of money? lol. Money doesnt grow on trees ya know. $20US for one small thing made in a virtual game is a little pricey, wouldnt you say?

If you do it yourself, it will take you at *least* an hour, so there's your 20usd. Actually, the whole system took about 30 hours of scripting, so thats about 900-1000usd.
Of course you could consider that that hour of your time is free, in which case that argument doesnt apply.
Also, there are plenty of students playing SL, and they will most likely script this for you for substantially less, or even for free.

I have concerns with the trickle down affect from charging any rl fees. History has shown that any RL costs will affect those who can least afford it.
