We Can't Escape the "I" Word


Inflation isn't an issue that affects RL exclusively. We've seen increases in prices of goods in Second Life, expected tips to entertainment professionals and perhaps most notably increased tier rates. While we fight rising costs of gasoline, groceries and household goods, spending in Second Life is a dilemma we all face. Many are choosing to pass up premium accounts and owning land on private islands, or simply refraining from owning land at all.

Basic economics suggest that decreased demand will decrease tier rates. Are the Lindens likely to grasp this concept with current RL conditions, or will the rates remain static? This remains to be seen. Perhaps we'll see more land to buy and less land filled with reasons to have an SL.


If your looking for land it's a great time with great deals included.

Tier is a huge expense and rip. How much time do we really spend in our homes to justify the high tier costs.

...the top ad on the website is a terrific deal for land owners. I wouldn't ever pay the initial purchase price anymore.

Land is the costliest and worst investment. I'd look for deals like the above ad too.
