After recent events I just want Linden Lab to maintain the platform for me to use & quietly leave me alone.
Posts Critical of Second Life On Blogger Network OK, Says Linden Lab
From "Fighting the Front", New World Notes' story on a Second Life battle between real world fascists and anti-fascists After announcing the official Second Life Blogger Network, Linden Lab posted an FAQ that attempts to address some questions SL bloggers have raised about it -- including mine...
Honestly I think people knew what they were getting into.
The bigger issue when I joined up was having no control over the "Resident" showing up in legacy scripts no matter what i chose.

The heavy handed approach to my marketplace listings & Flickr ban from the official SL group meant I refuse to pay Linden labs for their product until it's fairer with actual due process regarding rules & regulations.
(My inworld job pays well enough to cover my expenses without paying for Linden Dollars so please don't anyone point that out to me)
