Here's another evergreen OSW debate for ya... a troll latches on to a well-respected member of the community. Then, under the guise of 'defending' their famous friend, they launch attacks of righteous indignation on, ya know, anyone.
The famous (but completely gaslighted) friend then defends the troll, and we all shake our heads and say nothing. Cuz, what can anyone usefully say?

Well said and accurately described how hater trolls operate.
BUT... don't you think it's too late to save OpenSIM? Look around - it's only the gang of trolls here. Normal people who wanted to do something good long ago left or created their own worlds and are not interested in society...

I'm inworld most days and I'm currently part of a team organizing an event which will have 20+ people onstage, plus a huge backstage group of helpers. Everyone is nice. Not everyone has a high opinion of all the others, not everyone shares the same views, but they're all respectful to each other, cheerful, and enthusiastic about reaching our shared goal. I agree there are a lot of aimless people in the world, real and virtual. Aimlessness, like selfishness, brings out the worst in a person's character. I think the Box and the few troll who like to dominate it will never outweigh the good that is being done every day in opensim.
Optimism is like love and luck. If you reach out to it, it will reach out to you.
