Not all land business are floundering. My place, Draconian Enterprises on Drachen & Grand Junction is doing fine. Money is tight, but I’m small and am a much smaller risk then these larger companies.

In fact, my risk was so small I charge the same rates as mainland for 4096sq meters with 10% more prims. I never saw the open spaces and homesteads as a good idea (mostly because the cost per prim is insanely high), and have outright sought after lower cost regions on grandfathered rates.

Unlike some business owners I see in the herald lately. I think in long term before I invest and know exactly when enough is enough.

Tizzy Teardrop = IntLibber Brautigan

IntLibber, in an article on here, was found to be funding the infamous “PN” and allowing them to use a sim of his for their own base of Op. LL found out and IB got in deep shit for it. It is not suprising that he would go about ripping people off with his sims and up to this point, go into hiding for his actions.

Pennies for Pixels = Pathetic

Suggestion for all the Second Life Residents out there… Use your Real Life Dollars in a more inteligent way. Remember, SL is just a Videogame Sim for Small business. Ever wonder why all the SL Business owers do not own a business in the Real World? Perhaps it is beacuse none of them know how to run a business in the real world and are only doing it in the virtual world because, they are spending YOUR MONEY!

I’ve said before and I’ll say again, the only landlord worth trusting *at all* is Governor Linden.

‘Nuff said.

Some people should concentrate more on making tier than making a name for themselves.

Now, months and months before this. I 100% knew for a fact this was going to happen, a couple of years ago – Ive personally worked for IntLibber and BnT (Brautigan&Tuck)
Tuck was the last name of his in-world wife. But who left him because he was quote “going crazy” and “pathetic”. In which I soon left him, and his closest under management. Anyhow, this was forecasted a while ago.

And now, its come to reality. Most back when people noticed that IntLibber had more empty sims than he had full, we knew that this was going to happen sooner or later.

Surreal is being a big help in the effort of recalling all of thier sims back in their hands.

Tizzers should know. All he needs to do is ask his roomie. What happened to IntLibber’s scholarship to Woodbury? There was a nice backroom deal to give IntLibber a free ride to school if he gave BnT over to Woodbury.

How about IntLibber being overzealous to residents when he stated that BnT and ACE would have millions in assets in a few years?

Where’s this story? That’s the real meat behind it.

Linden Labs does not care about the “herd”. This has been demonstrated time and time again by their uncaring management style. Ripping off your customers is not against the TOS. I feel for those who lost all so next time stick to a landlord with a great reputation.

Seems that Surreal is trying to do the right thing and even helping people who own BNT owned sims relocate so this’ll end up as good PR for them. Int has done some shady stuff before though so hopefully LL will take him down and keep him down this time so more residents don’t lose their money to him.
