Second Life Grid Status Discussion
ohmy…this is so getting out of hand, makes me want to hurl @ by looking at some of these reponses!
every, i mean every game that falls into the mmorg/ rpg section requires a monthly payment with a prepaid gaming card/ credit or debit card aka Verification!
the “Sims Online”, requires verification and as most games gives the player/ member the option of a 14 – 30 day freeplay but again with some form of age verification.
SL is way to lenient on it’s customers. there has to be stricter rules involved to minimize the problem with halfbaked pedophiles, griefers and wanna be chuck norris’s.
people don’t seem to understand the possible outcome of SL.
do you ne’ sayer’s want to have a more stable and “mature” enviroment or want to keep sitting in front of your pc and refreshing the SL mainpage every 5 seconds to see wether the grid is up or not?!
specially in a game/ virtual reality where there is MAJOR adult content ( 80% of SL is very MATURE!) there has to be some sort and form of verification. i don’t think its appropiate to have minors getting caught up in ” kid av play “, and other roleplaying that is beyond mature!

lol@ “Starnight Luna”. you may not be very familiar with the term of “god” in games.
but “god mode” is a very common name in the “first shooter games” , and jane linden did not refer to herself or the other lindens as GOD the allmighty! its a slang/ jargon which means, the “devs (developers) are at work in game, trying to fix whatever the current SL problem may be.
plus i found that comment really fun and contradicting, because, you said you made 20k?
in your first 30 days with “hard work”…..lol, yes i can imagine working as a ” entertainer “
( and i am putting this nicely, if you get my drift ), is a HARD job.
yet you sell yourself in a “game” and talk about “god” in the same breath. off course i am only assuming everything…*laughs*
yet 20k is a nice junk of money… get the lindens to write you a check and BUY YOURSELF A PREPAID CREDIT CARD!

my thoughts:
sometimes i do wonder, in my 3 month of SL play, if half of these people are mentally challenged sitting in an internet cafe or a community college and playing their “sex games” from a public access computer.
or are half of these non verifieds are on welfare/ unemployment or living of some sort of illegal income?
in all my gaming years, i have come across many many weirdos, but SL and these hardcore rp’s who indulge in slave/ master, age play, escorting ( yes even live on cam or voice chat )…are these all yellow short bus rejects?
i am not sure what to think of these people…. but some just weird me out.
