I think there should be something like an off-line world. It would be a
unlimitedly big world and to get started you would need to download the
entire object path of your choice (Ya I know it would be huge). You could
build and such in it but ONLY you could enter it. Then, if you chose to
purchase an actual world you could transfer that world you built off-line to
the online world. Something else that could be interesting is the ability to
'trade' worlds. You could send the world you built off-line to a friend and
they could go in to it. But it could only be 1 person at a time no matter
what.....What do you think?

Sounds like a great idea to me, if the off-line world was limited to an SP8
40.000sq size,
which gives around 34 7x7 building areas separated by paths/roads. Objects could
be held
on a CD rom. Swap a world, could do that now but who wants to as they are
usually customized to the world owners tastes.

Most of what you wish is possible now, with server software and objects it seems
very simple to run a world offline but then that world becomes a non interactive
(people wise), Sim City type place.

Plus :-) At the moment there are sometimes more worlds available than users,
with you wish introduced I could see a time in the near future when virtually
everyone had their own world, worlds would be appearing and vanishing as fast as
citizens. Slow gradual world expansion would be gone, brand new fully built
worlds would spring up daily.. Erm so what would COF be doing as you could
easily go solo..

Still I like the concept....

And if you take this idea, plus the ability to have the ppl on the same
intranet network as you are on in your world, you have a $2000-$10000
galaxerver. :-)

No answer to that really.....It seems that many things seem simple and after
awhile they end up more complex than the service they were intended to enhance,
like AI (neural network) type programs to filter out and detect bad
language.....
