Avatar:
New default avatar body that is ideally closely fitted to the current popular mesh bodies. I have a friend who is interested in joining SL, but it’s hard for me to recommend it when she doesn’t have a lot of money and she would have to shell out a good $40-$50 right away just to get a body and clothing. This must be incredibly offputting to newbies! They could easily make it so people can toggle between the new body and the old body, so all the old content still works for those who like it.
Marketplace:
A separate section or label for Gacha items so people can screen them in or out when searching. It’s become impossible to find anything amidst slews of the same item.
Multiple colors in one listing
Better policing of keyword spam so I don’t find penises when I’m looking for carnival rides. Seriously, I’ve lost track of the number of innocuous searches I have done only to get tons of penises, porn pictures etc. Turning off adult search does not always work, and sometimes causes you to miss items that are not adult but got flagged as such.
Security:
Two factor identification whenever logging in with a new IP address. I was hacked a few years ago and realized I essentially had no way to protect myself from it happening again. I ended up creating an online notifier for myself, as that was the only way to know if someone else was signing on as me!
Website:
Ability to transfer L$/pay somebody on the website without logging in
Restore ability to sell L$ (not cash out) without payment info currently on file
Viewer:
Better profiles, scrap the web profiles and expand the regular ones with more options
This may sound extreme, but some kind of modifiable pop-up somebody has to look at before messaging a person who isn’t on their friends list. This could be a premium feature as it would mostly be needed by business owners. For example, before IMing me they would get a window with links to my land information and the name of the person they should actually be contacting in 99% of cases. I have this in my profile, but it doesn’t work.
Pricing:
Lower monthly cost of homesteads. They dropped the price of everything but still kept homesteads relatively high, even though they are the best product offering for so many people.
