Greedy Lindens

So, it seems that Linden Lab decided to add some fee regarding XstreetSL. Click here for more info.

It probably won't affect big creators. But it might affect the small ones selling cheap stuff or giving out freebies. Paying 99L$ to put out a freebie? Please, why should it cost someone to be generous. What is also the point lately to increase prices and add fees. Did everyone forgot that we were still in recession. It's going a bit better, but still.

Meh, I decided to just remove what I had for sale on Xstreet. Yah, I had shapes up for sale (including a freebie), but they're also available in-world. I just think it's unfair for the ones who can't afford a store because they are starting out and then LL decides that they'll have to pay to use XStreet. Way to go LL...

What's next? They are going to charge us in-world for every product we put out for sale or for free? No more hunts because creators will have to pay for the freebies they put out? What's going to be our gift for Xmas? More extra fees? Don't they know greed is a bad thing... or are they waiting for the three Christmas ghosts to come and visit them, preceded by the visit of the ghost of Philip Linden?

Ugh, anyway, here's the LOTD:
