First thing, SecondLife is a internet user-created virtual world.
People mostly stand around and chat stupid stuff, but I have noticed pass few days some have a bunch of guns strapped to them, just standing.
I know the games concept is you can be anyone, male or female, whatever you want to be, but why stand around all day? Something shooting in the crowd (the bullets are fake, as the guns).
Is it a macho thing or just people living out their dream?

Others make something that everybody wants to buy, but that niche is mostly filled.
