    Hey, Fairette, if you want an actual case of trolling to cite, just quote your own comment about raping Beth. That is just classic.

    Just makes me sad when people  people make comments like this.  Especially from one woman to another.  :(

    Does the covenant need to be more restrictive/detailed?

    It's not tacky having security when you're allowed to have it, also, those security devices don't cover the docks/piers between the houseboats and they give a person enough time to get out of the parcel if they do fall in or something by accident.

    I agree.  I would much rather people use security orbs with the 15 seconds rather than having banlines.   I have found that 15 seconds is plenty of time to get off someone's property if you have wandered or fallen into it.

    So in my opinion this is not a matter of taste, but a matter of being considerate with other people who also chose to live in that theme . But who knows, maybe I am wrong and everyone can do whatever they want wherever they want regardless of other people, right? Who cares, as long as they are happy, the rest is the rest. This is what I am reading in some comments in this thread.

     

    At the end of the day I would hope that people try to use common sense when decorating.   This is one reason I use Firestorm so that I can derender things I don't want to look at.  I am not too bothered by what people do on their parcels as long as their stuff it isn't on mine. 

    I lived beside someone on a beach in a traditional house and they had a green prim for grass (to cover the sand)  and evergreens.  Just didn't bother me.  Now some would say it is out of theme cause you are turning beach into a forest, but I would say it was in theme as grass, trees, etc . , this is how they see their parcel.  So again, in theme or not in theme can be open to interpretation.    I find nothing wrong with ARing things that one might think is against the covenant.   Worse case LL thinks it's not and it stays.

    I also think too that with the houseboats it is more obvious and right there in your face.  More so than in a TH or Vic.   The houseboats are way more open and close together so you just see it all.  It is sometimes hard to find a happy medium with the HB in regards to you and your neighbors.

    As long as their items are on their plot and aren't over the height requirement then as far as I am concerned it is okay.    It's not my style, but it is their parcel.  

    ETA:  Also if you feel it goes against the covenant then you can always AR it and quietly move on.  It is really LL decision if it is against the covenant or not.

    Oh, I hope we don't stop posting releases and great abandons on the When-did-you-last-see..."

    It's a fun thread to read. I love to see what beautiful homes people are releasing. Then you know that home is floating around somewhere!

    But I don't count on catching any of them.

    I still plan on posting any waterside parcels I end up abandoning.

    I'm starting to wonder if my poor alt's luck would improve if I stopped looking at that thread and just let her randomly click now and then. 

    I too seem to have better luck if I don't pay attention to releases.  Yeah it has been a bit frustrating lately, so I haven't really been trying that hard when someone posts that a region has released.  However, sometimes my click happy finger can't help it and I still try.  These log homes seem to release a bit different and I have had to rethink my expectations in regards to landscaping and water.  Now I am trying to think lots of trees and mountains and hills with a good amount of space between houses if possible, maybe a wee little pond.

    Now that you mention that, my best catches seem to be ones that I wasn't looking for or really expecting and just clicked for the fun of it.

    Should we pay for shapes?

    I have a horrible time making my own shapes, especially for heads.  I thank god that people take the time to make them and I have no problem buying them.    I try to find a shape that looks somewhat what I want and demo it first.

    I can't imagine all the time that gets put into making these shapes, why should they not be compensated?   Not all of us has the patience or talent to make our own shapes.  At least I don't!

    There's a Victorian on the LP  wondering where it is? 

    I clicked and got one in Nott.  I have released it though.  There is no way of knowing where it is unless you click on it like Sylvia suggested.  Not everyone posts here when they abandon a parcel.  There could be 1 sitting in the queue, maybe more, there is just no way to know.

     Also, when there is a new release, I've noticed a couple times that the person before me opens all the doors and windows before leaving, and there was no way they were there long enough to have moved in.  Oh, the funny things....

    That was probably me.  I do this when I am contemplating whether or not I want to keep the parcel.  I like to walk around my property first then walk around the house and look out the windows to see what the view is.  Closed windows ruin it so that is why I open them, same with doors.  I don't want to have to continually open and close them.  Sorry!  I am just an odd bird, I know 🤣.

    I've managed to stay relatively positive during these really crazy times until today.  I'm an introvert with an SL addiction so I'm well equipped to manage social distance... I've been training for it for much of my life...

    Today things got real...

    My friend and coworker of the last 15 years was placed in critical condition and is on a ventilator.  Right now they don't think he will make it...

    I am so sorry to hear this Evangeline.  I will be keeping him in my thoughts and prayers.

     It's interesting to see my criteria evolve as each new theme has been introduced to Bellisseria. 

    I totally agree.  The criteria I set for the traditional homes, doesn't necessarily work for the Victorians.   So I had to change what I was looking for in the Victoria homes.  I like my water view to be in the front of the house , nice water view with minimal fencing and hedges, nice and open, which is much easier to find in a traditional house.   However, this is almost impossible to find in a Victorian home because they have more landscaping and fencing in front, so for these ones, I have to find one with a water view in the back with minimal fencing and landscaping .  Log homes are the same way, the criteria is going to be different.  Even though I did get that lovely one on the water I would still like to find one that is more tucked away and private just to see the difference.  Cause for me that is kind of what log homes are all about.  For me though.   I find with each new theme I have to be more open to something different than the previous one.

    For non logical reasons the log home release has got bundled up emotionally with the current world situation for me. I keep looking at that tally (log homes available) go down, and somehow hope we'll all be in a better place by the time things move on, and it gets to zero. For that reason I can't wait for this release phase to be over and to move onto other things.
    I know it doesn't make sense

    I think you make prefect sense :) .

    Personally I think people focus way too much on the new releases.  Every single water view parcel I have gotten has been an abandoned one.   My traditional is a water view one and is actually a house I looked at before it was released.  Someone abandoned it months later.  My victorian and all the campers I have gotten that were water view, also all abandoned.

    I got this log house a few weeks ago and this one was also abandoned.

    I can either make myself feel like I am on a lake with a view of other houses or that I am on a big big lake with just a water view!  And someone abandoned this.

    I don't have a problem with people using alts, I use them myself.    Water views for the log homes are much harder to get as there is not as many and there is no coastal views either.
