I don’t see the point in doing things like creating kitchens and toilets in SL, unless it’s as props for a build, but then again I don’t see the point in real life of having a fancy living room or dining room that you never use except maybe once or twice a year, it’s a wasted resource that could be used for something better. That attitude follows me into SL so at least I’m consistent.

I’d rather see a sim filled with interesting builds like the Clocktower of Edloe rather than a plain “residential community”. Not that I mind them, if someone want’s to fulfill a fantasy about owning a certain type of house or rollplay a suburban life, that’s all good.

Heck, if someone wants to come in and grief an area from time to time, I actually find it a refreshing change. Sure, it can be annoying, especially some of the nasty stuff that warped minds come up with, but bouncing Sponge Bob boxes with that blasted laugh can actually be a tension reliever.

Ok, so I’m strange in that regard.

My thought is that it’s the interesting and cool builds, the stuff that you aren’t going to see in real life, whether it be reconstructions of places in real life you might never get a chance to visit, or fantastic places from movies or TV that aren’t available in real life, or what have you, these are the things that will keep people interested in SL. Sure, dancing and chatting with friends is great, but I’d rather do it in a fantastic build than a dance floor thrown down on the ground. And when the friends aren’t in SL or you’re not in the mood to dance and chat, then you at least have interesting things to look at.
