Man, that'd be fun. Unfortunately, we'd have to set up education and make the standard of living high enough to be enjoyable. That, and get internet to the island somehow. We NEED internet.

Don't be silly. Salvia, weed, and maybe a little ecstasy every now and then, what more could you need?!! You get up. Do some farming. Smoke something. Have a nap. Do some more farming. Smoke a bit more. Go to bed. And so on...
Ohh, but we'd need music. Hence the need for the ecstasy!!
The internet and music would be difficult. We'd need wind farms and solar power.
We also need alcohol. So we'd need water (it's an island :P ), hops (more farming to do), starch (..farming) and yeast (fungus farms!!! yay!).
That's a lot of farming. Too much farming. Fuck it, let's stay here!
No. Either way, people are going to have to do stuff. Just an island of pure Paradiseness isn't going to work out. It's impossible.
There will always be issues. One of them is work, and people are going to have to work.
EDIT: That, and this is my 800th post.
see thats the beauty of my plan that I mentioned earlier. We grow and make drugs for a few years...a few years of work. We than sell this...everyone knows the extreme profit of drugs...we make millions. So we've only done some work for a few years...we then have enough money to pay for any work we need done. We can relax...paint pictures...or party and let our money work for us.
So for those first couple of years.. How exactly do we manage?
:roll:
Well we need capital. And a small supply of food. I assume if we can afford an island(a good sized one costs millions)...we can manage for the first few years on it. We should probably start the drug production even before the island to add to the money everyone will invest in the island.
This thread reminds me of "The Beach", with Leo DiCaprio.

They're not pot farmers.. They're pot viet-cong farmers! ;)
why dont we take a flight 815 from sydney to los angeles and wing it?
Lol it's a bit old but Islands don't cost as much as you might think
I know this will 99.99% not happen but it would be cool if it did

67 acres for $297,000 CAD thats like £170,000
1000 members chip in just £170 each (like 2-4 days wages) and we would have it :P
Just mentioning the possibility lol, even if it was just a resort would be pretty cool
Even for $10,000,000 you can get a 36,103 acre land/ 36 acres per person would easily be enough food growing space ;)
Not only have you revived this thread, but you've revived my hope in the world. <3 you forever.
This would be badass.
We should have Grod and Jeff777 fund it. :P
But seriously, this has rekindled my dreams of owning my own private island some day.
Whoever bumped this should be beheaded.
Castration is oodles more entertaining.
Aw come on guys, think how awesome it would be! We could just build a bit of accommodation on it and go there for lucid dreaming workshops and the like.
Your own private island for only 300,000???
What are we waiting for?
I suggest we all go on a plane and crash on an uncharted island in the Pacific, then try to survive with whatever equipment we have left, and battle each other for power, survival, and of course, the female members. It's much cheaper, of course.
