If all of your creations, your wares, your shop, your inventory was GONE, what would you do?
Would you start from scratch and rebuild or would you throw your hands up in disgust and quit?
Another question I would like to pose is this: Having all of your original content (intellectual property) copied and stolen; is this the same as completely losing your content entirely? If you discovered all of your content was ripped off, would you quit Second Life? Feel free to leave your thoughts and responses in comments.

Actually, the poll isn't quite complete. My content is backed up, so while I would be ticked off, I wouldn't need to begin again, either.
Same, as a script/sculpter most my content is stored offline.
Even if that weren't the case I would see it as an opportunity. I have had to wipe my computers totally quite a few times.. and although I have stuff backed up I only put backups back on them when I can't live without what I lost and I don't think that recreating it would generate something better.
You never lose "Everything" unless at the same time you suffered amnesia and managed to forget the skills you picked up making the content you lost.
Since I'm not a content creator, it wouldn't be a matter of rebuilding a business. What keeps me in SL is people, not virtual objects. While I'd be outraged (and would no doubt rebuild my inventory with considerably more care), the most important part of my experience of SL would be unchanged.
all that clutter in inventory gone...GR8!
