[2010/05/04 19:11] Susie223 Chun: http://sonny5258.blogspot.com/2010/04/cannot-afford-house-in-real-life-buy.html

[2010/05/04 19:11] Ding Atolia: it's a link

[2010/05/04 19:11] Ding Atolia: sorry sonny5258.blogspot.com

[2010/05/04 19:11] Ding Atolia: my story is so short...

[2010/05/04 19:12] Jessie Passerine: i'll be the reader

[2010/05/04 19:12] Ding Atolia: i want to focus on the good sides about the land issue in sl

[2010/05/04 19:12] Ding Atolia: compared with reality

[2010/05/04 19:13] Susie223 Chun: Many middle-class people who have worked fiercely for about 20 years get shocked when seeing their dreams of buying a new house breaking down

[2010/05/04 19:13] Susie223 Chun: maybe break down?

[2010/05/04 19:14] Ding Atolia: but i don't think I have expressed what I intended to say

[2010/05/04 19:14] Ding Atolia: ok

[2010/05/04 19:14] Ding Atolia: and i am really lacking in the background information about the land in sl

[2010/05/04 19:15] Jessie Passerine: well , after reading the article. I think buying an house in second life does not actually helo the situation in reality[2010/05/04 19:15] Ding Atolia: so what are the aspects are you guys interested in land in sl or house?

[2010/05/04 19:15] Jessie Passerine: it just offerred an escape temporaly[2010/05/04 19:15] Ding Atolia: haha good point

[2010/05/04 19:15] Jessie Passerine: in reality you still cannot afford a house[2010/05/04 19:16] Ding Atolia: I think I can add it to my story

[2010/05/04 19:16] Jessie Passerine: haha XD

[2010/05/04 19:16] Ding Atolia: and change my focus

[2010/05/04 19:16] Ding Atolia: not just the good sides but bojectively[2010/05/04 19:17] Ding Atolia: ruby

[2010/05/04 19:17] Jessie Passerine: and the first time i saw the title, I thought it was an add from the game

[2010/05/04 19:17] Ding Atolia: do you know more about the house building thing in sl?

[2010/05/04 19:17] Susie223 Chun: haha

[2010/05/04 19:18] Susie223 Chun: actually it's a good way to escape from reality

[2010/05/04 19:18] Ruby Lysios: The past two decades has witnessed an ever-growing rate in the house price. i think the grammar is strange

[2010/05/04 19:19] Susie223 Chun: not only buying houses or lands, but also the whole game

[2010/05/04 19:19] Ruby Lysios: you might add the subject "we"

[2010/05/04 19:19] Susie223 Chun: it's not strange, I think

[2010/05/04 19:20] Ding Atolia: I think it's a sentence structure

[2010/05/04 19:20] Susie223 Chun: because I once saw a similar grammar in a film

[2010/05/04 19:20] Ruby Lysios: allright

[2010/05/04 19:21] Ruby Lysios: it is a retreat for people in real life; they might but a resort and take vacation there

[2010/05/04 19:29] Ruby Lysios: i expect to know too

[2010/05/04 19:29] Ding Atolia: you mean in sl, we cannot check an object-whether it's new or old

[2010/05/04 19:29] Ding Atolia: ?

[2010/05/04 19:29] Ding Atolia: ok, I will do it

[2010/05/04 19:29] Ruby Lysios: whether it's new or old makes no difference[2010/05/04 19:29] Susie223 Chun: yes, they are all virtua

[2010/05/04 19:29] Ding Atolia: ooooooh

[2010/05/04 19:30] Ding Atolia: so the second-hand stores are useless[2010/05/04 19:30] Ding Atolia: haha

[2010/05/04 19:31] Ding Atolia: maybe we should call it throw-away stores-things other people don't want anymore but useful to other people

[2010/05/04 19:31] Ding Atolia: not throw-away exactly haha

[2010/05/04 19:32] Ruby Lysios: and maybe you could sell the things you do not want and make money

[2010/05/04 19:33] Ding Atolia: or can we take a break now or at 11:00

My comment:

We are all curious about how to make money and buy lands to become the master. This week we were kicked out by the fram owner next to Mortu. He was so rude...but it seemed a special experience in second life.

Buying a house in secold life could mean a escape for us. In real life, we couldn't afford to buy one. In second life, we might decorate and design the house by our own and get a sense of achievement.

Sonny is encouraged to interview the owners and ask how they make money and what they feel about that. This could add to her writing and compare people's feeling of those house owners in second life and reality.
