Last night at the Rose we hosted a live performance by Elvera Lerner. The SIM was soooo laggy that many of those who turned up had to leave :-( I was so pleased to see we can pull in a crowed 40+, but I think Ive decided that events of this size and complexity just don't work well on out shared land. On one hand i was so pleased people wanted to come, on another embarrassed and disappointed that we couldn't do justice to Elvera's fantastic performance. I am now of the opinion that having our own dedicated island is not just a 'nice to have' but essential to maintain and grow the type of events we want to do. The big problem is of course money and people to help. Its a bigger commitment on which I would want to involve more people to help run it. Its also a risk, but this is were commitment and passion is tested. If we really really want to see the Purple Rose Grow and flourish we have to take this step very quickly or we will get a bad reputation.
Back to Elvera. She was brilliant ! Best i have every heard from her and the guests loved it. I was proud to have her there. Id like to have her perform again soon but maybe i have to think seriously about this lag issue first.

It was great to hear of this event but sad to hear that lag once again hit the Rose. Although so many people are used to Lag in SL it still has the power make a visit to an area not as much fun as it could be. I hope that improving sim performance on a sim is something that linden labs have at the top of their "working on" list. The rose aims to be an immersive enviroment, but lag serves as a massive reminder that we are in SL. It is so hard being away from the Rose and my friends. I want to be there to offer all the support I can. Well done on the event and I am so pleased there was a great turn out. I miss you all very much even after only a few days... it's driving me mad not being able to be there with you. Lots of Love Kaya X
YAY! Kaya!!
You know Eponie is hallucinating and seeing you everywhere!
Don't worry we won't burn the place down hehehe
