My Second Life has come to an end.
13 years ago
Its been a great 5 years, but I think I'm going to say goodbye to Second Life.
I had alot of fun over the years, and many great friends along the way! To all the great people I knew in SL I hope our paths cross in other places! To my friends lets stay in touch via skype, FA, Facebook, ect.
I learned a lot about myself, and others. I understand the stratification in america, and in the world. There was a time I believed anyone online was a middle-class nerd, now I know there are all kinds of people out there on the net.
As for SL itself, it is a money sink, that is making the people in its game become more interested in their cliques, and fear/hate outsiders. The platform is growing in great ways to cater to the audience they have, but they aren't engaging new people, or exactly incentivising the current user-base to welcome them.
I may come back some day, but for now, Eric Dielli is sailing off to new places on the internet!
