TSO from an SL user persective

[aidancheddar]

There is something about the TSO round that induces greater friendliness in people and just sheer niceness. Will Wright really knew what he was doing when he created a) routines that helped organize people b) collaborative job objects that helped people work together to their individual and group advantage c) goals like having the more expensive goods or even being the "meanest" on the leader board. He had it all very efficiently worked out, and it seems Luc and these others that remained when Will went off to work on Spore or whatever have continued on that spirit.

Keep in mind, this was a few months before the cities merged. Read more.

In my opinion the community is nicer as TSO is much better as a game. The architecture tools are one of the most powerful aspects of The Sims and imo are the only features that lost nothing and gained a lot with The Sims Online. If you give people goals to achieve (ie build a great house) they're more likely to enjoy themselves and work together!
