[sl] Teen questions from the Blue and Philip Linden event
During the recent appearance by Blue and Philip Linden on GK Island, we invited teens to send questions to Mariel VoyUnicef. As we could not ask most we decided to list them all here:
Scott Deharo asks, "When will the TG get more beta testing sims? We only have one and we cant build or script in it?"
Jon Daikon asks, "When will the simulator source code be open sourced?"
Mariel Voyunicef asks, "Is the TG going to expand "culturally" as in terms of promotion in non-English-speaking countries? I saw a reportage on local news (Mexico City) about SL, but it focused on adults+MG, so I'd like to know if it will be popular for teens as well."
Mariel Voyunicef asks, "Do you think that, now that educational projects are growing on the TG, people will see TSL more as an educational place than one to have fun? Are LL doing things to prevent that, or do you consider it not necessary?"
Ty Dejavu asks, "Is there gonna be a TG stats thing on the forums or Website?"
Wayne Riederer asks, "could you make scripting simpler?"
Ace Amat asks, "could you please ask them what do you plan to do or suggest about the high amounts of lagging here in Teen Grid?"
Skyline Crosby asks, "why dose the grid go dawn every week insted of every month or somthing i know it's a stupi question but i realy would like to know"
Jon Daikon asks, "Will secondlife.com ever have a Teen Grid only statistics page?"
Akeem Hax asks, "how do we make mony i make mony becouse i desighn but i mean i cant buy no land no nothine all i can do is rent wy dont they start atomatic job opnings that mean you get payed to make somwere look preety you know what i mean make this SL more real thiers to menny ppl just Tp'n and looken for things to do and to menny ppl with 0L $"
Savion Willsmere asks, "I see alot of new sims made by the lindens what will be the plans of those?"
A message from Ace Amat: "could you tell them that i could posibly translate their website into Russian if it was needed, since i was born in russia and my family could help."
Jon Daikon asks, "When will the live grid client support voice interaction?"
Mariel Voyunicef asks, "Given the male majority on TSL, are LL going to target girls specifically to get a more balanced population, or is it not a priority?"
Mariel Voyunicef asks, "Education, business and activism are already present in SL. What do you think will come up next? It wouldn't surprise me to see really solid artistic expression in the future, but I'd like to know your thoughts on this".
Debaser Woodget asks, "when will we have more exploration areas? (i.e. oil rig in Bleu, hydroelectric dam i forgot where, etc.)"
Katherine Palen asks, "where could we get fourms to fill out to teach and stuff anf how long will it be until the education stuff is up and running"
Malarthi Behemoth asks, "Has there been any thought given to putting the Teen Grid on a seperate Asset Server?"
Savion Willsmere asks, "Will there be any more linden land sales like protected land etc.?"
Mariel Voyunicef asks, "Do you think politics in SL/TG will become more complicated -like offline ones- as more residents join?"
[16:48] Barry GKid: everyoen's questiosn suck compared with yours! :-)
Mariel Voyunicef asks, "Would you ever accept, now that you mentioned translators, to have volunteers translating on both grids?"
Scott Deharo asks, ""What do you think about the idea of a seperate TSL ecomeny, I think the L$ prices should be seperate for the grids."
Ty Dejavu asks, "Is there any tour or a learning station in the real life Linden Village?"
Skyline Crosby also says, "i olso want to know how they think the sim is going to react more later in the year or maby next year E.G: how much it may crash"
Ryou Debs asks, "I have a lot of friends that I'd like to get into SL. THey're all into MySpace, and their profiles. I've heard quite a bit about the SL profiles becoming much like that of a MySpace Profile some day. But the problem is, SL only runs on high end machines. Will there be a day when SL min requirements will be dumbed down?"
Mariel Voyunicef asks, "So far, most actions seem to have been taken by residents/organisations/outside investors. Do LL plan on including more of their own projects, or will it all be resident-led in the future?"
yumsum Bartz asks, "wat if a kid gets raped from chatting on sl?"
Scott Deharo asks, "When will SL get a packet load cap?"
Natalia Obscure asks, "Can Linden Labs integrate classes that will educate TSLers business practices that will promote profit on the TG and business/economic education?"
nik385 Doesburg asks: Wouldnt there be a simple-enough way to make an island with acess to both TG and MG residents, but dissallowing inventory transfers, if it's the mature objects you're worried about?
nik385 Doesburg asks: It's undenyable, the TG has a large number of foreign players, some not speaking english, isnt there a way to bring a translator over from the main grid, or integrate one into the SL client?
