    The New LH Release Plan - Your Thoughts

    I have really mixed emotions on the current system.

    The new regions are going so quickly that I feel like people are afraid to re-roll at all. When you get a really sizable drop there is a certain amount of churn afterwards with people trying to get a lot they like better. With the current system nobody re-rolls because the chance of getting a better lot (or any lot) is so slim. I think this can cause people to hang on to lots that they don't really like because at least they have SOMETHING. 

    Then again, hanging on to lots until there are a bunch made also prevents people from getting those lots sooner. In the end the same amount of people end up getting the same amount of lots, they just have to wait longer to get them. 

    I don't know what the answer is. I just know that people are getting very frustrated and I can completely understand their frustration. It just bums me out for them.

     There really is no way to do this that is going to make everyone happy.  First come, first serve seems the best way to go.  Even if they had a list those at the bottom wouldn't be happy.  At least releasing them throughout the week it seems like there is movement and people are at least getting homes.    And these are not cookie cutter regions so that is really nice and I think well worth the wait.

    I have a houseboat on my alt, but I did get rid of my traditional house on this one cause I really didn't like the location and I tried.  I am sure whoever got my parcel was extremely happy and I hope they enjoy it!  I go to the home page and try the refresh thing once in awhile but I am not obsessing over it.  I know I will get one at some point or even one of those cute campers.  Sometimes if a person is that frustrated it is best to step away from trying to get one and give yourself a break.  These homes aren't going anywhere and at some point I am sure there will be lots.

    I felt kinda stink cos I have a house in a nice area that sits empty and is used as somewhere for me to park and chat. I dont have a PC atm so I'm on lumiya. I was going to give it up but I've found it's actually a great spot plus I've decorated it already, in my head... lol

    I wont feel guilty when I get my houseboat either, even though that will sit empty like the house. There have been many times I could have claimed  another house but I've chosen not to do so as I dont want another traditional house just yet. Id like a houseboat first. After that, I'm probably going to make a couple of more alts premium to see if I can get better spots. It's all about location!

    Personally I don't think people need to explain why their house sits empty.  It is your house and you can do what you want as long as you follow the covenant.   You can take as long as you want decorating it.

    And people shouldn't feel guilty or be made to feel guilty because they have multiple premium accounts and they have multiple houses.   They paid for their premium.

    I think all you want is a bit of encouragement, and don't give up, plenty of us have been hitting the refresh button on the lindens home- request page since a April. You will get a home, each and every last one of us will. 😉

    Totally agree.  It will happen for everyone eventually.  I understand people are frustrated and feel like they are losing out.  There will be even more different themes eventually and really the moles are doing the best they can and trying to do it as fast as they can.  And it is fun to watch people eventually get a new home and to see the regions grow.

    can't there come a addition to TOS that it's forbidden for 6 months to complain about missed homes, lack of chances and any other related subject to that?

     

    People need to vent.  Personally I see nothing wrong with it as long as they are polite about it and don't get derogatory about it.  And Patch did say they were going to release them this way and see how it goes.  Nothing wrong with people giving feedback it is obvious that they do listen to it.

    LL new homes=FOMO

    I certainly agree that FOMO is real.  I also play a farming game and I tell you people get upset over little things, like missing out on daily prizes, or freebies.  I also work for a cell phone company and it is the same thing when new plans come out or new phones.  People want instant gratification.

    There will always be complaints, even if Patch personally delivers homes on silver platters with a pony on the side. However, I think we are going to see even more complaints now (if that's possible) with this new method. 

    I'd be complaining cause I want a unicorn damnit!  😂

    I don't think it matters what they do some will be unhappy.  You just can't please everyone.   Personally I think it is better to have smaller releases throughout the week, but that is just me.  I had a house and abandoned it today trying to get a new one cause I wasn't happy with where my house was located.   And of course I didn't get a new one so I will try again on Wednesday.   I am not upset I knew the risk I was taking.  My alt still has their houseboat and I am happy with that one.

    Is there a way to abandon via website? ... I got mine using my phone and it's not what I'm after so I dont want to keep it. I wont be by a PC for a few days and with lumiya I cant do much because I cant pull up parcel details...  the orientation of the house is messed up.. the front of the house is facing the water and the entertainment side/decks are facing the road... makes no sense to have it that way ...

    No you can only abandon by going to the parcel and doing it there.

    I don't think they have even started the new release for today. Patch said it woul be the New Hampshire region. So if people are not getting homes on that, they were likely getting random adandoned homes/boats. 

    Well so far it is the Santa Louisa one.  It was all empty and now they are all taken.  Maybe the New Hampshire is on Wednesday.

    ............or you can just choose to view just the Linden auctions only by clicking on the box when you go the auctions therefore avoiding the resident auctions.  People can list their land for however much they want for it.  Doesn't mean they will get it, but it is their right.  And people have a choice on whether to buy it or not.

    I guess, and guys might like it too, but think about which of the traditional was the most popular...............the biggest. I kind of like the Bigger wooden camper with the ramp and the modren gypsy vargo

    I agree that people definately want the bigger  houses.  I think these campers are great for those starting out that aren't sure if they really want land or just want a small home base.  Even though I always had a Linden house I also bought land cause I wanted to have a bigger space to decorate.

    My first thoughts are too small, cramped and on 512 lots meaning they will be packed in with half the LI other homes have gotten. I applaud Lindens for trying to create some diversity, but who wants to camp 24/7? I hope they add some cabin choices in the mountain areas

     

     

    When I first jointed SL I would have been happy with one of these.  Really is the perfect size and the fact you can now have a platform in the sky makes a big difference.  It would have been a nice home to go to in order to unpack your stuff or demo.

    I'm the houseboat right under the lighthouse... You'll see the "Boaty McBoatface" on the side. Stop by and say hi anytime!

    Actually, you might want to see if the privacy shields are up and how many people are on the boat first if you don't want a shock. If you like that sort of thing, however, well... welcome! 

    <=====================  wonders if something kinky is going on over in that houseboat.  😁

    you must have a very selective memory if you don't know how this company acted as leeches for many years.. no support and tricking, mainly newbies into their far overpriced non updated beta body... than make it a release with a simple minor update , and now again bring a full overpriced product on the market.

     

    The good thing is that people can make a choice on whether they want to buy the body or not.  No one is being forced to buy it.  And with anything in SL I always tell myself buyer beware.  And I always ask myself if I am willing to put the money into something.  I have the old body and it still is my favorite body out of all of them.  I haven't bought the new one, however I have demo'd it and I will admit I am tempted.  Just because of the shape, skin and the number one thing for me is resizing the feet.  I haven't forgotten what they were like in the past, sometimes it is just a matter of wanting something 😀.

    @Ingrid Ingersoll

    I'm glad you started a thread for good old dirty mainland.  I love mainland even though I have a new Linden house.  I do have a 4096 plot however my friend does most of the decorating for it.  I use to stalk one of your plots that you had before (I'm pretty sure it was yours).  You always changed your houses and I use to love seeing what you did with your plot.  I was sad when I went there one day and you no longer owned it.  Now make sure you post here so I can see what you are doing!  🤣
