Sounds like a new Open Letter must be drummed up, only this time it should be called Open Goatse, and consist of a single image.

Sadly, this is not a new impulse.

LL does seem to bring out that feeling quite often. Must be some new management thing.

Jessica Robertson · 10-30-2008, 03:42 PM

This was Step 1

Who in their right mind would want to rent a quarter sim, with neighbours when for the same tier they could have an entire sim with privacy and the same prim count. Back then Sarah and her peers were justifiably annoyed.

This was Step 2

Quote:

So ever resourceful, Sarah (along with many of her peers) completely altered their business model. Converting full islands into open spaces and buying new ones in order that they could salvage their business in some form or another. LL could not fail to recognise what was happening. It was after all the only viable thing for estate owners to do, or be left with empty regions which still need to be paid for every month. I would go so far as to say that LL actively encouraged this as the way forward for estate owners. They even brought in additional, new measures to help facilitate this... i.e. the transfer owner to payer option.

I absolutely agree it was entirely foreseeable by LL. What else could rental businesses do?

This was Step 3:

Quote:

So they announce that we are all rather naughty boys and girls and that to chastise us they will increase tier and set-up fee's by insane amounts and look smart at doffing your cap and tugging your forelock in future thank you very much.

This was absolutely intentional, and I argue that they knew EXACTLY how successful Openspaces would be and planned this from the beginning. LL knew full well that Openspaces were going to get snapped up. Furthermore, the people that bought them are stuck with them. They have already paid the fixed costs to LL for the setup and initial purchasing fees.

They could sell them for a low initial price and then, after a significant number sold, increase the variable costs involved (tier) to generate additional revenue, what can those owners really do? There is such a number of Openspaces that throwing them on the market will be ineffective, they won't sell.

I have no doubt that this entire plan was known from the beginning.

Sorry I am late to the party.

Sarah

I am sorry to hear about your suspension and I am glad to see it was reversed.

Respectfully disagree. Fuckchop is the best term of endearment I have heard all year.

Fuckchop is a term of endearment? Mabb has a lot of 'splainin' to do to my girlfriend, then.

I like the sound of Twatwaffle, but Fuckchop is easier to say especially when you aren't thinking because your angry or something. I could see myself using Fuckchop a lot more often. I'm already a pro at saying the "fuck" part of the word.

I agree, but together the two words are unstoppable. They are getting my vote.

I don't read the politics forum but I am aware of US politics.

Still, I'm confused. Couldn't that be either of the current tickets?

You know Sarah, last week when I read this I thought their action was a little harsh.

This week after having to move sim and being out of pocket about 58,000 lind I have only this to add.

You were gentle on them. If I had known last week I would have turned up and said far worse to them.

If LL doesn't change there stand on this quickly, I'm about a month away from having a handful of upset residents when I have to clear my OS's and convert them back to full estates if I don't end up just giving them up altogether.

**Sarah Nerd** · 11-02-2008, 03:22 PM

Someone who's a better builder than me needs to make us a FuckChop. I have this vision of a pork chop with a penis leg blending out of it in my head but I'm not sure how to make it from prims.
