Well there goes my free Sunday  :P

I'd think that information would be very useful in many ways, thanks Xenos!

Umm you do realize EA Land was Sims online not second life... and there is somewhat difference there.  Seems there was a child sex ring going on where at least one minor was a madam in a brothel becoming an in game millionaire and seems one CS agent had said due to the underage sex ect was why that got shuttered

Yeah, that was the part that really resonated. Didn't mean to bum you out...hence the warning.

Their situation (EA Land) was different than our's though. According to the Snap Judgment story, they were losing money...and according to LadyWizard there was even murkier stuff going on. So lets use this as a reminder why we are fighting. We are heroes, and this is what we do. ;)

I've already visualized the end, should it come to pass, several times. I could go out a few ways--fighting bad guys on my main character, sitting solemnly in the Shadow Shard--but I think I'm going to be logged on my first character ever when and if things go dark. I'll probably be sitting in Pocket D on Protector, thinking about the glory days.

So instead of breaking it up and banning the players, the game gets taken offline?

Typical...  :roll:

I refuse to listen to that >.<

All y'all's comments about crying are putting me on edge enough.  Point taken.

I doubt that's what actually happened.  TSO's closure probably had more to do with the fact that it was just the Sims with a chat server, and there was no meaningful way of interacting with other players.
