Why was my mainland taken away? It was taken and then the name was changed to ** NO AD LAND **

[Jarah Khandr]

I had a land that I just bought and I was setting it up to be a little shop. I had two items set out for sell. This morning it was taken away and the name was set to ** NO AD LAND **.

The only thing I can find in the wiki is about ad farms and I wasn't do that. It was in the mainland. Why would they do this?

Follow-up - It looks like the land settings flipped back to "for sale" after I bought the land without confirming with me. So it was bought by another user.

The buyer made it right and I learned a valuable lesson.

Who is shown as the owner of the land?  Unless it is Linden Lab, then your land wasn't "taken away," it must have been sold to another resident.

If that happened, and you are SURE that you did not have it set for sale, then someone might have gotten access to your account.  If you suspect this, change your password right away, and follow the instructions here:  http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Password-and-account-information/ta-p/700017#Section_.5 (What to do if your account has been compromised)

If the owner of the land is "Governor Linden", then LL did in fact take the land.  You'll have to file a support case to find out why.
