Bots - that can work longer, harder and faster - than any human player are outlawed in pretty much every single other online game I have ever come across. Linden Lab don't seem entirely bothered by this inconsistency - but unless they act soon, and come down fast and hard on bot runners, then there won't be any Second Life left, or anyone left to enjoy it.

Has anyone tried Entropia Universe (www.entropiauniverse.com) ? It seems a better SL besides the content creation limitation.

Frankly speaking people junkup their own land to degress prices so people sellout. Landbots are just a pain in the ass. LandBot have caused problems regardless of junkedup or not.

BTW i have again and again IM'd and written over abandoned land next to me with not so much as a form letter ...one might wish you guys would actually get in touch with actual users for nostalgic effect... as it is ,you are all insulated much like congress and haven't a clue.

SO I SUGGEST YOU DROP TIER FEES or lose most of europe to the new world!!! After all with USA entering recession and the UK on verge of it, I doubt people will want to pay these high fees any more we want to see a drop in TIER FEES, otherwise you will lose out to the new world opening in europe, they are much cheaper than secondlife with the advantage you can have casinos..

This is the problem with statistics, they wouldn't know about things like that or why people are selling land off like that. @87 Peggy Paperdoll, I wonder if some of my L$0 transactions are counted when I buy my group owned land myself for L$0 so that I can deed it to another group.

Pity vehicles still don't work.

But I do realize that without land bots the bottom would fall out of land prices, and SL would be so full of junk lots, it wouldn't be funny anymore. The economy needs a stable, moedium level (L$10) land price, and they are the current means to achieve it. Actually, I don’t run landbots.
