Camping is when somebody pays you to sit (or dance, or sweep the street, or wash the windows ...) at their land; the longer you stay the more you earn. Typical rates are L$1 per five to twelve minutes. At today's exchange rate, you would need to camp for at least 23 hours to earn one U.S. dollar.

There is in this author's humble opinion only one real, valid argument against camping: that it is a very dull way to spend your time here. There is so much happening in SL, there are so many fascinating places to see and wonderful people to meet. Please don't waste your time camping! Get out and see the world.
