Re: perplexed by some customer reviews.....

This is a tricky situation. I admit that I would prefer to reserve 5 stars for "outstanding", and use 4 to mean "very good" or "good", 3 to mean "good" or "reasonable/usable", 2 to mean "rather poor", and 1 to mean "avoid buying". If one gives everything that is good or reasonable 5 stars, the resul...

Re: Village community: concept discussion

Thanks, Dundridge -- that really confirms the shop + apartment idea. Caves were stage 2, but might be brought up the priority list. ( Ozwell's cave kit does look interesting.) ;) Whether the village starts with a 2x2 or a 3x3 depends on how many people express a definite interest and willingness to ...

Re: Village community: concept discussion

Thanks for the confirmation, Ilan. Several of us were able to discuss options inworld yesterday. Some expressed the desire to have a place within the village centre itself -- perhaps as a shop with an apartment above. This would reduce the need for a 3x3, making a 2x2 a viable size -- perhaps with t...

Re: No Kitely Mentors Group meeting this week (Nov 20)

A few of us dropped by the meeting place in the Welcome Center yesterday (thanks, all!). We chatted generally about various things, including speculation about the forthcoming upgrade to OpenSim 0.7.6, how the lack of lag means clothing textures can be considerably improved, various gadgets people a...

Strange that, Sarge. I was wondering whether us Europeans might do much the same.

Re: No Kitely Mentors Group meeting this week (Nov 20)

Would it be OK if the rest of us still met informally? Those that would like to, that is.

The weekly meetings are a good way of getting to know each other and help to build up the sense of community.

Re: Village community: concept discussion

Is it possible to use KC to pay for unlimited time worlds? So a 3x3 would cost $80 x 300KC/$ = 24,000KC per month ?

Re: Village community: concept discussion

Thanks, all, for the comments and ideas so far. Do keep them coming -- they will help to refine the concept and define what finally happens. Marstol, I too like Caledon and its neighbour, Winterfell. For quite a while, I had various plots in Winterfell, for example. I would see the village idea here...

Re: Village community: concept discussion

Intriguing. I'd love to help a bit, but it's a difficult style for me to build in, and my tech would look out of place :( Maybe that sky build, heh. I'm used to living at ground level. Would you consider having a cottage at ground level possibly built by someone else at an equal level of skill (but...
