Spending an inordinate amount of time in an online community – discussing random and trivial things? Absurd! Nobody would do
that. None of us here have that addiction….

Some areas are a little “Irvinesque”, but most of the architecture and art are incredible. It seems to be a very creative crowd.
Just a note: I wouldn’t call SL a game, for the same reasons I wouldn’t call LoT a game. There are no set goals, nor do you win at anything. It’s simply a virtual reality online community.
