Sadly this seems to be the last nail in the second life adventure coffin, As much as I grumbled on LSL radical changes in the code's core, I still hold the highest respect for the language itself and to the one man who created it – Mr. Ondrejka. If there is one thing Mr Ondrejka supported was fair play and high morals, especially on fair trade and protecting creator’s rights, it’s not the first time we see LL taking the dark path of unfair trading, mostly by simply looking the other way as copy bots and other illegal “toys” ripped and embezzled all the fun (and profit) out of second life members. Yes, this ship is going to town. I simply recommend to all of you out there to bail out now - just like in any pyramid game. With that I am still left aghast to see large companies from small and somewhat “left behind” countries still spills money in, second life in 2008 will be focused on setting a “bail out” path to LL original team members as they “sell away” second life to people with no idea of innovation and artistic creation, less then making some more money on the backs of the poor souls that failed to exit. But really, this is just a personal view of the situation, my question is – will it do major harm to you if you simply convert all those LL to real $, and simply let them wait in your paypal account until the storm will pass (or the world will raze to the ground …)
