LMAO too funny.

I heard these type of virtual life games are becoming big business with real as in IRL money to be made.
And alot of the virtual properties are being bought up by real life companies.


while IRL this would be a travesty without doubt. In the virtual world I love it!
LMAO Too funny

In a game a balance has to be struck to make the game fair,fun and playable for all and not just a few elite.

If the parent company cant or wont find a way to acheive this then the players must find a way to acheive this themselves. but that rarely happens and the game dies.
In this case it looks like the players found a way
Too funny!

On the downside. This may also become a good study on things to come IRL as life begins to imitate art

The reality of  Second life is that you can make real money there by setting up a business and selling to other members.  So far from being virtual it becomes real. When real money is involved life, real or virtual gets complicated.
Unlike real life, God (as in the owners) can and will strike down the evildoers.

It seems we really can't get away from being human after all. How long will it be before there's a war. LOL

Well thats where we would come in.

We could be hired out as mercenaries.

Hmmmmm

Might be some money to be made there

I think maybe a bigger question would be.
How did they manage to model a nuke into the game?
