My Mood:

The Bot Runner in question is a shit, no way around that. I won't go into whether bots are good or bad, I'm ambivalent mostly, they can be misused just like anything else.

The land sale interface is straightforward enough for me, I read all the boxes before clicking yes, and understand that selling to ANYBODY means just that. I don't know how many additional clickthroughs you can add, some people just won't read them all no matter how much hand holding or nanny stating we do. I don't think the various time delaying tactic are a good idea, they may just make the process bog down.

I will grant that those who don't speak English as a primary language may have difficulty. And that speaks to LL's shameful habit of not making essential knowledge to survive in SL readily available and up to date. They won't get involved and that is fine. Then they have a duty to see that we can access what we need to know when needed. They don't have to spoon feed us, but it should be in an accessible place. Land dealing being the biggest part of the economy dictates that there should be a comprehensive guide on an official LL space, not buried in some wiki or 3rd party site
