the teen grid deal? well that truly sucks as many people have put in serious work into it – those that won’t be 16 for a while are forced to export all their things and maybe try OpenSim

“being profitable” lol – firing 100 people and the CEO and that Adobe guy sure reduces overhead

you know, in a speech i just gave i said “i plan on winning the lottery this year and have action plans in place to make that happen, such as buy a lottery ticket” – words mean nothing at all

good luck Second Life, i used to care, but since my account was cancelled, i have nothing at stake anymore – see you on the OSGrid . . .

I've got a teenaged sister and I would NOT want her exposed to most of SL, frankly. Not everything "adult" is on "adult" regions. (Just walk around CoLA sometime, for starters - Lost Angels sim, mature rating.) Ugh not happy about them getting rid of Teen SL.

And as for Teens I hear they have been allowed to go copybot crazy, that's how I hear they get stuff into the Teen grid by stealing it from the adult grid, with an influx of kids ready and willing to not pay for anything what defense do ordinary content creators have? Linden Labs does not have the Morale to pull this off, not after lay offs and laying off Qarl Linden who was actually capable and motivated to do such work.
