What is it about TSL realty which strikes fear into my heart? It’s mainly the PIs, and newly released mainland sims. These, for the most part are nice, peaceful places - The beautiful new Eden? Or full of exciting, fresh, modern architecture - The old Leviathan when it was done up by Aeternus?

We get the odd few, however, who stray from this trend of style and sophistication. The new block of sims, I’m thinking the ones including Kenafa, seem to have decided to mar our outlook somewhat. These have either been bought up by barons, and turned into mainly failed estates, flats, malls or ‘Cities’. The latter most frightening, in my opinion.

This is not to say some good things haven’t been done with buying up entire sims; or such. To quote a name twice, Novais has done a good job with the Aeternus Decorum crew in Tolkein. Check it out sometime, though it may be on Access List.

The real problem we have is that the lack of effort we seem to have is losk of real effort on our part; seemingly buying the land merits a reward to most residents. Then, there goes the age old dilemma of “Do I hire an architect, pay out my cash; or risk not making the build so awesome, and saving?”. This, again, is really up to you. Though, I would recommend to you who don’t have adamantly brilliant building skills to hire a builder. This really means a good longterm return on investment - although it can be quite substantial money, you have a special, custom build that works for anything (this is a goal of architects in SL), and will look good no matter what. This is no problem for the mass of unknown, yet talented builders out there.

More to come tomorrow in the 2nd Installment!
