This is THE wild trip - we're seeing how this virtual worlds platform is evolving. Technology's changing fast, and the media is hyper-fickle as a result. The fact that even Wired Magazine, who makes its business looking beyond the cutting edge, is taking out their personal angst (for their lack of planning or things to do on their space) on the platform, rather than own up to the fact that since this is a rapidly evolving technology, it's not the easiest thing to master. “I’m sure LL would be much happier to know that most of the money won’t be gambling as they tried hard to figured out what is on what part of their “Resident Transactions by Amount” Chart.”

It's the gambling ban. Duh." Aye. In fact, I'm sure LL would be much happier to know that most of the money won't be gambling as they tried hard to figured out what is on what part of their "Resident Transactions by Amount" Chart. Soon, you will see that chart being in well ordered by volume and share altogether. It dropped about 1,200k USD... so divide that by 459,793 people (when known for last 7 days) is about 2 bucks and 60 cents. Sound reasonable to me. Oh wait... it means the rental/lands are going to be so damn cheaper now... and the chart (just checked today) going back up again to buy those lands. Gambling is hardly any affect to SL's main outcome. SL isn't going to fail because of that.. that's retarded. SL is, however, taking a wild trip now. Not sure what's the hell is up with their network servers going offline. I'm sure it won't be like that for another week or so. (didn't someone say SL was gonna burn out and rot a year ago? pfft.) “Considering the Herald has reported previously about how 80% of transactions are gambling-related and inflated, why is it taking the contrary standpoint and say it’s SL stability.
