As the Creator of ANTlantUS, I'm gathering input from potential ANTlers (those who will occupy this new and improved virtual environment). The platform will be Blockchain in nature, and will revolve around Blockchain technology. The use of Crypto, NFT (backed by real world asset), Social Media (protected from data mining and censorship), Live Chat, Ultra realistic graphic environment, Professional Career Educational and apprenticeship opportunities (that transfer over to real world applications), and maybe most important... ownership of not only your "Home" in ANTlantUS, but also in the virtual world as well... with all the perks that go with pride of ownership.

If you are at all interested in the creation participation rounds, and able to discover this unique opportunity that lays before you, I invite you to be part of this adventure and provide valuable input on direction and ultimately, the final game ecosystem. Either join in on this conversation here or email the Creator at ANTlantUS2100@gmail.com. I need participants who can be safely surveyed, and be added to a list of "Founders" who will reap rewards as the project unfolds

Please, please, please join me in this effort. I need your help.

Yes, a lot of buzzwords:
Creator
gathering input
virtual environment
Blockchain
Crypto
NFT
Social Media
data mining
censorship
Ultra realistic
game ecosystem
surveyed
list of "Founders"

OK, it sounds like you want to create something that is not really possible in Second Life because of how it is structured (both technologically and administratively, so ... maybe Unity?) And you're not looking to "sell out", which means any kind of revenue stream or just up-front resources (time, money) will be volunteer-based, with the benefits of maybe being able to sell one's artistic creations and of engaging time and development effort (for free!) in furtherance of becoming a better programmer (which can also be done by contributing to most open-source projects).

Have I got this right?

I'm trying figure out if response are from frustrated, mean people, or if my concept isn't worth even trying to achieve. All I'm looking for is input from gamers who live in these environments on a regular basis, and have a wish list (probably just in the back of their mind) of what they would like to have in a virtual world project. I don't need trolls looking to be nasty with their comments... there are probably many other individuals you can attack on these forums. I'm sincere in my comments and only ask for respect in return.

That being said, don't respond unless you might have input for my project, and negative input is welcome... that is how I will be able to improve the product on my end. Buzzwords, probably, but can't explain my concept without telling the complete story, or at least to the point I am right now.

Sorry about all the buzzwords, but don't know how to explain the overall concept without mentioning the ones above. And, there are even more.

Trying to figure all this out is very, very, difficult, and maybe I won't be able too... but I'm going to keep trying until I can't anymore. There are so many moving parts that need to be consolidate into the overall concept. And, yes, Second Life is maybe one of the closest competitors, but the graphics and environment developed so far, to me, are way to cartoonish.

Mostly, I'm looking for individuals who delve in these environments that have ideas in the back of their minds of how they would improve the product. What works and what doesn't... and a wish list of improvements. Additionally, I could ask questions that pertain to the Business Model of creating something this. I'm currently working with the Founders Institute on developing all the inner workings of launching a product of this nature. So my intentions are totally honest and the time commitment is overwhelming to the small guy like me. I just want succeed in this endeavor.

Well, your original post came off like some sort of drive by spam. Hence a lot of the comments.

Also, all this NFT Crypto stuff is honestly, just just feels like a way for people to try to get rich quick selling nothing to other people. And in the case of using it in Virtual Words, it just ends up with a bunch of people who don't care about building a usua Le Virtual World like Second Life or VR Chat or Sansar, but just "investing" and hoping the price inflates.

No need for your negative input... but thanks for at least "kind of" reading my buzzword statement. There are plenty of other individuals you can attack
No need for you to reply to every negative input... but thanks at least for 'kind of' making the effort to participate in our forum culture by ignoring it completely to impose your own expectations of behavior in our space. There are plenty of other ways you could have solicited for feedback without setting yourself up as a punching bag.

Are the avatars insect ants or deers with antlers. It's kind of hard to tell.

You've made it abundantly clear, very quickly, that you don't have the temperament to even listen to constructive criticism and learn from it. You are defensive and easily riled, which makes you the least likely person to succeed in the rough-and-tumble of constructing a virtual world.

Your posts here are amateurish, unprofessional and lacking in any credibility precisely because you're "Trying to figure all this out is very, very difficult." No shit, Sherlock.

You have an idea, but obviously nothing more than just an idea. And you're trying to find people with actual skills and experience to join you when you don't have anything to offer in return for the tremendous amount of work involved in a project of this kind.

Learn more -- a lot more -- before you approach other people. Get beyond "idea" to "concrete plan" and perhaps you'll get more traction from a forum full of real developers and creators who have seen posts of this kind so often they probably wince when yet another pops up.
