But I guess that its more of a concern to Habbo and the Penguin (screw them 2D lands *g*) then Second Life. Or what do you think?

Like on every RP sim, visitors are asked to wear an observer tag (puts an visual object over your avatar to make you differentiable from its inhabitants). Yet there is so much stuff to see. Very amazing indeed! Great work!
