The mainland would never have been in such a pinch had they actually *done* something long ago about the ad farming problem and done something to keep folks actually interested in it. By making Openspaces more accessible with individual purchase and additional prims, they practically DROVE people off the mainland and left a ghost town behind. |
I could not agree more.
All we can do is engage in random speculation as to why this is being handled this way. I can't believe there is no way to limit the openspace sims to the load they were designed to handle and resolve that part of the issue. But we also know from history that when residents abuse something LL has a tendency to just kill it altogether rather than fix it (see also Land, First and Bonus, Ratings.)
So, that suggests there is a something much bigger going on beyond the excessive load and misuse.
I'm kinda thinking engineered "correction" in the land market, but what they hell do I know...
