I dunno, people still go there but a lot of the lands I used to go for died a death because of that open space debacle, so I go there far less than I used to. Raising fees during an economic crunch? Risky when places like Avatar Hangout the land is the quarter of the price. What are Linden labs spending it on, golden taps?
Thing is the churn rate on land is terrible - things just disappear overnight. That's not good for keeping people when the very places they go just disappear. I mean the Parkade has had to move 4 times in 2 years, it's that volatile.
And Amanda is having to pay for an island now - if the credit crunch hits her, well I don't see it being kept going - I have no money and neither does Topher...
