The logical next step is to hire real people to do this work for lower pay, eg like gold farming.

We covered something on this line on The Virtual Currency report last month.

Yeah, right. Here we are into August and the bots still rage across SL. I see large groups of them standing around, taking tea, owned by the land owner himself.

Landbots flit about grabbing land from honest buyers, unstopped.

It’s not who you know, it’s who you blow. If you’re butt-buddies with a Linden or you make umpty-thousand dollars a month for LL, your bots are going NOWHERE! LL only bans the guy who owns 1 or two, or they use bots as an excuse to trash a person’s store so the shop owner can be forces out of world and onto XSTREETSL, which is now owned by LL by the way…

That way LL can steal a person’s money 4 ways instead of only 2.

GIVE US A F***ING BREAK, Linden Lab! If you’re gonna ban the damned things, DO IT! No favorites or exceptions!
