‘The Nun’ speakith (part I of…something, probably)

Side note: interesting WordPress ‘bug’. So on the SecondLifeKid.com homepage, where it shows recent updates with a small excerpt…apparently that shows ‘draft’ entries, too, even when not logged in. It also re-does that every time you edit said draft, even after posting newer entries. Not cool. I had that entry marked as ‘draft’ still because it’s still not refined and ready for prime-time, especially given that that entry may well cost me almost every friend I have in SL on this avie. (If I’m going to be ‘excommunicated’ from anyone’s Friends list, I’d rather it be for what I DID mean rather than what I stated poorly and was subsequently misinterpreted.)

Slapping a Tax on Playtime

Found this on Twitter. So we may have to pay REAL WORLD taxes on our VIRTUAL WORLD going-ons; I’d like to think neither of my avatars, the main nor this one, make enough L$ to be taxed, (my main has < L$2,000, and she’s old enough she still gets a L$50/week stipend from LL.)

I think taxing 100% in-game transactions is kind of dumb. Nothing I do in SL profits me one iota IRL. Seems everywhere I go in SL operates at a loss, slight or severe, and continues to do it because they love it, not to be profitable.

Thoughts?
