After a long time in hiatus i though i could share something here that have been annoying me for so long in this virtual world second life, back in the old days of this world there used to be events a few times a year that gave creators time to come up with new and amazing clothes or gadgets. Sadly these days there is a new event every week and the quality of the clothing is very poor, from bad rigging to terrible texture and as usual it’s the consumer that is the one that have to carry the loss if a creator have not done the job right before he or she put it for sale.
I have cut down my shopping budget to 1/4 th of what i used to spend i see no reason to buy a lot of new overpriced clothes that is porely made and rigged, when i can’t get more than half the outfit for under 300L. It’s a lot of greed that keep the prices so high and everyone imagine if they set price high they earn more, but i rather go with a less expensive / quality outfit if i can, not always that the expensive and pore rigged ones are the best choice.
Don’t get me wrong i know there are plenty of good rigged clothes out there but some creators are just bad at it and no matter how much you complain about it they do nothing, some ignores you cause they know you are right and does not want to take the discussion. I did a brief research of the term “demo” that is short for demonstration and again means a fully working product that may not look like the end product, but it is suppose to be working and it is actual not the consumer meaning you and me who are the testpilot to see if this works or not. I mean if a creator knowingly sell a product that they know is not working on a certain body’s, then let us know so we save us the hassle of wasting money on it.
So my last words for a while will be that i think i go to the weekend sales and buy the old news clothes that everyone else buy and combine with some free gifts, and not spend a lot of money on clothes that are old news before you get chance to pack it out of the box or even put it on. Because in the end of the day the creator have released a new product that is at another event that you will visit and you have to get that, the neverending cycle of second life shopping where the motto is greed over quality.
