  1. Have you had thousands of tenants over the year of every description, size, shape, species, RL location? I have. The overwhelming majority of these tenants are solo hikers, and often Home Alone. I don't think I attract librarians or little old ladies who only log in on Sunday afternoons to go on a tour of Mount Campion. I have a good share of tenants who create two proximate green dots regularly or even multiple green dots regularly, but they are not in the majority. I would say it's something like 60/40, really but I never scientifically counted it. Lots of people who never change their clothes -- like me -- maintain homes (which I don't currently have but often do have). Lots of fancy dressers never acquire partners or even one-night stands but just drift around shopping and gabbing sometimes in DMs or maybe they'll drop down to a club or art gallery and then log. LOTS. Socializing is stressful, if anything. People who are really into cars REALLY love to show them off and drive them around and yes, they need land for that, if nothing else, someone else's land who serves as the host of the launching place. You're now contradicting yourself because in your last post, you were trying to prove that I was angry that people bought clothes and bodies and went to clubs intead of renting my land, when my land is merely a frame for their content and their relationships, and the least expensive thing they will buy all month. Yeah, that. Some clubs provide rooms for hook-ups but most people want to get away somewhere! And there are plenty of very nice hotels and resorts now in SL. But these are -- wait for it -- rentals. Most of them are above my pay grade.
  2. What even is this ? I've played wow, still go back every once in a while , depending on what content is released . You know , that thing that SL can't do without the social groups that surround those categories of " content "... As in , subcultures that all shop for the same things , and wouldn't exist if this was a solo game where there were no needs of those subcultures to be filled ( products being created for the demands of different groups of people ) . SL's content is the marketplace , and the marketplace dwindles quickly to nothing when everyone's a solo player , so I suspect what you say about most people here being solo players to be false . 🫩
  3. Let's just take a poll in this very thread, and if you like, put a poll online. I think it's easy to bring the facts to your claim. 1. How many here have ever played World of Warcraft, even just once? My answer: 0 How many once played World of Warcraft but don't any longer? My answer N/A How many here still play World of Warcraft? My answer? N/A
  4. Yes,shopping is keeping SL alive , from those people who actually have social groups to go hang out with and show off their new looks, to inspect and buy more looks due to having tons of people around them to inspire them, and the other mainstream hotspots filled with people who discuss new products to create and sell and have bought by people who come to those hot spots... Solo exploring ? Lol nope. Even in these forums, you will see that the solo explorers barely ever change their avatars , if you're paying attention . They may buy land or premium and that's it ., while the socialites are doing both, because remember ? " Can't park your car somewhere unless you have land "" . Your words . Well, they can't bring home their seggsual one night stands without a place to stand . Seggsual one night stands that they attracted using the products they bought and wore to the club.. yeaaaaah, boi . Trickle down .
  5. There's a thing for that. It's called "a club". There are all kinds of clubs in SL. Usually they have groups attached to them. Or DJs. You join the DJ group, they invite you to where they are spinning their platters. You go a few times, you meet people. I think you want to be taken by the hand and led into a forest with fairies where everything is wonderment and joy. Apologies if you need anything from me today; I've decided to eschew adult responsibility, flee deep into the woods, become a small mouse and gather berries in my tiny hat.
