But plz try it and play it to the fullest you will have the same nice experience of getting no service from the company for your money, so support for ingame bugs that cost money is my best freetime occupation………….. its called dynamic lol

just a bunch of nubs who try you to scam out of some money, and the community is even better in scamming you from your money whilst the company wont take steps against it………. thats a nice service………….

Does it involve RL cash?, Is there an element of luck involved?

Every1 with half a brain knows the above to answers, all you need to do now is google gambling definition ) Quite simple really

ROFL @ the comments about theres ways of doing it better.

Sure yeah you can do most casino games, if not all, better, like doing it sober, etc. It still doesnt disguise the simple fact that EU is gambling.

Unlike all other gambling sites though, its unregulated, un-licenced and doesnt carry warnings bout gambling additiction.

Thats why i laugh at the comments saying i won blah blah, so that means EU isnt a scam, LOL!

pero muertos cabrones.

The thing to remember is that SL is only limited to your imagination. People who get bored after a couple of weeks need to broaden their SL horizons a bit. Do a Search to whatever comes to mind, and 90% of the time its in SL for you to go experience.

SL is not a game, its a broad virtual social experience. If its not for you, then go back to WoW

The chances for a non big time investor to make it inside is Nihil. Today I have removed the software and the goldcard with reader is in the trash. For the rest of my life I shall hold it against Mindark for luring me in and my time and money wasted inside a hell hole. The more you lose inside the more unpleasant it becomes.

Yes it is like a casino but it is a fixed casino only favoring some. When voicing your dissaproval at Mindark support department your avatar is flagged/tagged to lose constantly and permanently. So I advice players to stay away from support for whatever reasons they want to use it. Mindark hides behind their word ‘it is dynamic” lol. A multinational gaming company driven by greed for prifit do NOT leave it up to chance they have full and total control regarding their loot distributions in-game. Fact is their are people behind desktops functioning as loot distributors and this does not happen honestly at all. Besides the big investors being favoured there are a select few who are favored and mindark staff family members also involved, (Robin gripper Planet), is one example of this.

Content creation is value creation.

You can “mind-sweat” all day but this EU activity amounts to nothing more than consuming bandwidth at the EU servers, and entrenching you into their environment by wasting your time. It is for this reason that they reward you with a cheap resource. There are no other activities that you can participate in in the environment that generate actual value, therefore they cannot truly generate wealth.

EU makes money running this game, so they are pulling wealth from somewhere. Gamers deposit funds, and some withdraw funds. If no wealth or new value can be created by players in-game, then it is by definition a negative-sum scenario, or as GEUP put it “the house always wins” .. at least in the aggregate. EU can’t pull wealth out of the system without taking it away from the aggregate population — from the sum total of wealth that has been invested.

Now if players like Stryker can turn a profit on their time in-game, that wealth also has to come from somewhere. Unless someone can name another revenue stream in this closed system, the only place from which Stryker can be pulling out money is from the other players who are putting in money. Stryker is by definition profiting from others’ losses. The reason he can do so with some consitency is because the game favors heavy investors. Essentially he has become a “high roller”, and he is being comped at the tables so that the average player has something to aspire too. All the while, the average, less seasoned player dumps in money that very few can ever hope to recoup. This is also the basic idea behind how Pyramid schemes and multi-level marketing work, but the details are dissimilar.

Linden Labs are marginally less vulnerable to this poisoned economic model because users can genuinely create new content that other users can find value in and invest in. True, SL has atrociously wasteful rendering times and it’s freedom means there will be a modicum of penis spam. But if you can work past those limitations, then you can invest at whatever level you see fit and profit if you so choose. You can upload sounds or textures at L$10 (about $0.04 usd) apeice and make things, then the gamble of how valuable the things are depends solely upon whether others would like to pay to have them. The value you can reasonably create in SL is really pretty small and novelty based, thus also the cash flow you can expect to generate is also small and if you’re truly committed just enough to finance your in-game pursuits (you’ll never break minimum wage) but the micro-economics are sound. Those well suited are capable of having fun with arbitrary investment choices, including and especially zero investment.

Thus it stands, EU is still a virtual analogue to a world-simulating casino. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t play it, or try to have fun (convert dollar value into entertainment value) but .. especially with the American economy in it’s death throws .. you should understand that EU will exact a steep cost for whatever entertainment you wish to have there. Be warned.

1. The avatars in SL are MUCH more advanced and realistic than in EU. If you don’t believe me then download the latest version of both programs and see for yourself. I don’t know what would cause the author of this article to say otherwise, except if they have never actually built an avatar in SL.

2. SL is not “aimless” per se. There are many different combat systems and roleplay environments in SL to cator to almost every gaming style. If you look for them you will find them – having a sense of adventure comes in handy.

3. SL allows you to actually build and sell items using 3D modeling, texturing, and scripting. The possibilities are endless. What else is there to say?

4. I own a shop in Second Life – I build and sell realistic and functional torture devices. Can I do that in Entropia?

5. The rendering engine in SL is far superior to Entropia. Avatars in EU are pathetic and look like primitive blobs compared to the avatars in SL.
