This one statement is the End Game to sooooooooo many of the problems we face in
SL.
That said, I've decided to sell my land (no more tier to LL even via an estate owner, thank you very much) and I'm just going to hang around and bide my time hippie style (not
SL hippie style, but the old meaning of the word) and "take advantage" of a friend's generosity and plop my show and studio on his sim rent free (he wants my traffic the bugger!
).
I am SO over giving money to this company that I'm willing to abandon my land if it's not sold by the next tier date. I just don't care anymore.
I will no longer be purchasing Lindens from anybody for anything and will spend whatever meagre amount I make in tips, product sales, or whatever with trusted and reputable vendors and creators from here on out.
I know I'll still be supporting Linden Lab financially in this manner but you can believe that it will be a damn sight less than I have in the past year +.
I've removed all reference to Second Life from my website other than a link pointing to the brand centre and a link to the thread discussing LL's trademark enforcement and it's effects on the community posted here at
SLU.
On my show I no longer refer to Second Life. I've changed my language to "virtual metaverse" or whatever pops into my head that doesn't include "Second".
It's truly time for us to step up and get behind the "other projects" and help ensure this is not only done, but done properly.
