there is basically one big clique where people who stuck around after an event called black friday where all of there's startup funding was squandered now have the ear of there staff, moderators and other employees, a small clique has a b-line directly to tech support, moderation staff, and content designers basically run the game. There han't been any truly sensationally new content added to the " game " in over a year, and the system is prone to avatar and terrain server crashes. customization depends on designers submitting new content which eventually costs you real life money. There attempt to match secondlifes very successful land ownership system has been a huge failuer where again the cliques have had the ability to source member lists to troll for renters and tennants while new member who own " hoods" as they are called are left to fend for themselves with disasterous results. what's even more hillarious is that there is so unnattractive to people in " developed" countries that they started a new launch of the client in of all places the philipies where credit fraud is so rampantthe onlty way the world is accesible is through a philillipines ceel phone subscription plan.....it had its charm but under the surface there is just a better looking sims online with nastier cliquier people and a very biased staff...the thing should have stayed a government trainign simulator and thats it

....There is only one topic on this board so bumping the only topic will do nothing. I am surprised Joel has not posted on his own account, probably got perma-banned this time. |

Well in reply to all of the 5 or 6 posts i JUST got around to readng (cause i was in There)...
In 3 short responses: 1: well i really no longer care wether you like There or not. i do, and you can't do anything about it. 2: I have an SL account. BORING. you have to pay MORE for SL then There, and the vehicles, they dont DRIVE, they FLY. WTF??? $10 a month minimum to be a premium member? it might as well be Runescape! (i got an account there too...) 3: There is not a "knock-off" SL. There and SL have their own steengths & weaknesses. That is why each person like one over the other. and btw... does anyone have this "Joel"'s There avi name? if so I would be more then happy if I could have it. |

just a word to the wise, there has it's faults, it's neighborhood system is bad..and they don't sell the neighborhoods outright, you have to bid on them, the average going price is around 400 us dollars. Unless you plan on being really agressive courting renters and being inw orld to run events or knwo how to design in gmax to make exclusive content your hood will inevitably fail. The best thing to do in there is just own a there house...they are cheap and very customizable. Also don't waste alot of money in there, the less you spend oddly the better your experience is....and avoid the whole established player clique..they are trouble....especially bluegrasstiggs, zachc, and a few other who post heavily in the forums of that game so say we all |

Hey, I got an idea. Instead of coming online and paying to live a virtual life, why don't you all go out and actually do something in your "own" life.

Thing is, There is not and never was an MMORPG. It's a social platform with gamelike elements, not a game with social elements. Hence, it's easy to see why most mmorpg.com users would dislike There. It has its appeal, but the audience it appeals to generally cannot be found here. ----------- |
