Can someone tell me if there's a monthly price difference between renting a 20,000 prim region through Anshex, or buying one that I can name? (I know buying has a set up fee, I need to know what my exact monthly cost would be) I've been poking around the forums, but I haven't been able to find anything that directly answers this question. Thank you much for any help!

Thank you! That map is extremely helpful!

I tried teleporting to the area of Cow House, but the one they gave me called "Clean Getaway", I don't see on the map anywhere.

I've tried to select one of the new 2048 homes, but it says I have to upgrade to Premium Plus, which I already have. Is there something I'm missing?
Now it has allowed me to select one, but it can't teleport to the parcel..

What is lab gab?

When I was a child, if someone had told me that this world would exist one day, I wouldn't have believed them. Coming from an era of Atari and Saturday morning cartoons, it's incredibly fascinating to create my own avatar in any image I desire, who moves, dances and reacts in whatever way I choose! Here, I can create a world that brings me peace, tickles my heart strings, and simply, just makes me happy. Oh, Second Life! What a wonderful, wonderful world!

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, I followed your directions and we still fall through the bridge. Thanks for trying to help.

I have 2 homesteads that are joined, and I'm trying to add a bridge to cross over. I've tried everything from information I could find, like rezzing a bridge on each homestead and overlapping them. Nothing works, we fall through every time at the crossing. Is there a way to fix this, or just an issue SL has without a solution? Thank you much for any help.

I recently upgraded to PP for several reasons, one being having the ability to choose a home. I should have read a bit more about it first, because I don't quite understand how it works. How does one find these homes that are ready enough to bid on, but not ready enough to release to the public? When a Traditional or Victorian comes up on the home page, they're quickly taken!

The stilt house selection menu isn't rezzing a house for us, can someone tell us who we should contact? Thank you much.
-
Thank you! I must have been overlooking it, somehow. Much appreciated!
-
I'm having the same problem with mine! I contacted Quartz Mole, and he removed the stacked houses while I was offline. Well, I just signed in, and now I don't have a house at all! LOL! The rezzer is completely broken. Can someone tell me where to find the link for filing a ticket?

I'll accept that you don't think it is judgmental and apparently did not intend it as such. However, I've re-read it a few times and it still sounds judgmental to me.
The nature of forums - there is no tonal inflection or body language and thus we all read posts with out own biases, often not interpreting things the same way, and sometimes not as the poster intended.
You're certainly entitled to your opinion, as am I. I've just learned that this forum isn't the place to have one, at least for me. I became the new target from one well intended post, and yes, judged for it. Good luck to all who are still waiting for a home. Peace and blessings.

The bolded part of your original post, shown above, would be the judgmental part.
That's not me judging, they are facts, if you read through the chat history.

To be honest though @Ciarra Lexington this person is pretty difficult to ignore when she is constantly moaning in group chat then carries it on in to here when in actually fact there is nothing for her to moan about.
For example when one of my children have said 'I want' or 'can I ?' and my answer has been no, you can guarantee the next question is going to be 'why ?'. I'm not an irrational person, there is always a reason as to why my answer has been 'no'. What I don't understand is why when something is explained to a child, they get it, that's the end of it. So doesn't an adult?
I agree with you. I wasn't saying she should be entitled to constantly complain here. It seemed to just get her going even more when people responded to her, so it seemed the best way was to ignore it, and eventually (maybe, maybe not) she would stop. I don't know if that would help, but I do know she's been posting this way for a while, so she'll probably be back on the next release day, if not sooner. So, everyone can just keep poking to make her growl louder, or simply leave her alone, and maybe she'll tone it down. That's what I was saying, and I was attacked from all sides for it. It makes me wonder if she started out with a simple, frustrated post, and it grew into what it is now. If you read my original post, I wasn't the least bit hateful. I was suggesting a solution, and from that, had my words and my supposed intentions twisted and thrown back at me. I've never enjoyed these forums because of this very thing, and only started now because of the new homes. I'll find another way to get the info I need, to avoid this.

Well, you may as well 'judge' me while you're at it because I second Beth's response and I think you will find I'm not the only person to agree with it.
I wasn't judging anyone, Layla. What I was saying in my original post was that as people continuously responded to her with their own snarkiness, it just made her react even more. It wasn't helping anything, and the better course of action was to simply ignore her. If my post is being perceived as nasty and judgmental, I can't do anything about that. But I'm beginning to see how it may have developed into what it did with the member who was complaining. My post has been blown into something it absolutely wasn't. I was simply saying it was best to ignore her, and to try to be a better human about it. I was attacked for that. Wow.

You were judging others.
Of course, Sylvia. I was "judging" her by repeating what she said to me, and her response of taking my post personally.

Yes, we are. As are Moles and Lindens. Everyone has things they are dealing with. You, my dear, don't know what's happening in anyone's world.
What we can control, however, are our reactions. Someone has been reacting very badly on multiple platforms and she has been repeatedly called on it. I'll ignore a misbehaving child in a restaurant, but not a misbehaving adult in my neighborhood.
But thank you for the lecture.
I certainly did not say I know what's happening in everyone's world. I said the opposite in my post. NO ONE does. If attacking me for adding my opinion about this makes you feel important, Beth, more power to you. I'll even let you have the final say, so you can insult me again with another " You, my dear, don't know what's happening in anyone's world." and "But thank you for the lecture." I was not the least bit unkind in my post, and it was not directed at only you. You chose to see it as a personal insult. I've said what I wanted to say, and that's it for me. Carry on, in whatever manner makes you feel good.

Because of RL obligations, I knew I was going to miss today's release, so I came here to see which one it was, some general info, etc. While following the chat, I noticed one particular person (not mentioning names) who is frequently venting her frustration over not getting a perfectly located home. Many of you were responding to her posts in an equally snippy way, and this makes no sense to me at all. Why keep it going? If reading her posts rankles your nerves, it's simple. Don't read them. But, if you're quoting her and adding your own sarcastic or snarky remarks, you're truly not any better. And sure, you could say the same about me for adding this post to the mix. The difference is, mine is purely intended as a gentle reminder that even the crabbiest of us are people, too. You don't know what's happening in their world. You don't know why something like this is so important to them. Don't judge. People are going to complain, that's just human nature for many. However, those who rant without an audience, will quiet down a lot faster once they realize no one is listening. Peace, all.

I sometimes wonder if they're releasing one or two at a time, just to see how fast we all jump!
-
Whether or not this affects me personally, if it makes the creators leave, then my reason for being here is gone, too. I haven't been a resident for all of these years just to float in pixel space. It's the wonderful creators and what they've turned this fantasy world into, that has kept me here.

No, but most of the people that I'm seeing that are absolutely furious are the ones who don't ever cash anything out.
No, that was just me trying to be funny... something I usually completely succeed in failing at.
I am not "absolutely furious" Beth Macbain. This game would have to be a lot more important to me, for that kind of reaction.

Stealing someone else's idea from another thread but...
And the bold and the yellow is not snarkiness... people are literally missing this vital piece of information in the deluge of posts on this thread and people quickly scrolling need to have this jump out at them so they can see it.
THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU IF YOU DON'T CASH MONEY OUT OF SECOND LIFE.
You will not have to provide your social security number, driver's license, birth certificate, your mother's birth certificate, fingerprints, DNA, first born child, a goat, or a blood sacrifice if you purchase Linden dollars and spend them in Second Life.
The large print isn't what sounds snarky, this part is : your mother's birth certificate, fingerprints, DNA, first born child, a goat, or a blood sacrifice if you purchase Linden dollars and spend them in Second Life.
People should be able to ask questions, even be mistaken or misunderstand something, without sarcasm being thrown their way. This is why I've rarely posted on forums in my 11 years isl.

Renting or Buying Land?
in Land
Posted
I have a general idea of the cost, but what I couldn't find info on is if there is any tax added in the U.S. where I'm located. I'm trying to understand if the $209.00 price is exactly that, or more because of added tax (and how much more) before I pay a set up fee. Thank you much for your response.
