I don’t play second life, tried it, but didn’t keep it up. One question..What does his avatar looking pale have to do with him? Am I missing something here?

I think what Linden Lab could do is to start listening to us customers and fix stuff like sim crossings,bugs which have never been fixed,lower tier.

Many of us invested thousands of dollars in SL,we are customers. LL should stop pissing off their customers.

Hard to say that Mainland regions “have definitely become more popular in recent years” with 49% Linden ownership and abandoned land over 14% See http://www.gridsurvey.com

More popular with ghosts, perhaps?

“Not sure it’s safe to say SL is in decline even with the private estate numbers dropping”

good point but if more than 80% of your revenue stream is private estate tiers, then it’s bad . . . imo

ps – as someone that had 19 sims, i sure wish i would have been offered a discounted rate!

I think you are correct about Phillip’s avatar being symbolic. However, you might have missed what he meant. I think that his avatar is not a vampire, but a zombie. You know, the walking dead?

If this is the case, Phillip is telling us that Second Life is not dying, it is already long dead. The current residents are simply zombies and lost souls who haven’t figured out that they are dead yet.

Go into the light. Go into the light…

Not sure it’s safe to say SL is in decline even with the private estate numbers dropping, seems that largely had to do with malls and in-world shopping centers mostly going away as the need to have them greatly diminished with the SL Marketplace gaining traction. The mainlands have definitely become more popular in recent years, which is definitely a good thing from SL’s standpoint, since trying to navigate a bunch of disjointed remote estates is a lot harder than following a contiguous continent with established roads, canals and rails. Granted, the farther away you get from the big cities like Nova Albion and Kama City, things start getting a more rural feel again with more open lots. It’s a transition period. Vendors don’t want to drop tier when buyers are on the Marketplace; residents don’t want to live on an expensive private island if they can move into the much less expensive mainlands affordably.

As for voice, is anybody really surprised Vivox is crap? We’ve been saying this from the time it rolled out.

Wait. If it looks like a vampire and hangs with the bloodsuckers of commerce, Occam’s razor suggests a logical conclusion.
