    Everything you need to know about this can be found in the Land Forum under the Linden Homes topic. A wonderfully helpful post has been lodged there by @RaeLeeH; do start with that:- The availability of the new homes is slowly getting better, but they are still in short supply and hotly contested for. Good luck!
  2. Hi Pepeu, If you opt for the annual rate, you are charged annually, in advance; currently US$99. That is equivalent to US$8.25/month. If you opt for the quarterly plan, you are charged quarterly in advance; currently US$32.97. That is equivalent to US$10.99/month. If you opt for the monthly plan, you are charged monthly, in advance; currently US$11.99. That is US$11.99/month, of course! Watch out - if you reside in an EU country, VAT will be charged in addition, at your country's rate, on the quarterly and monthly plans. (Factor in exchange rate fees, too). But, in return, you will receive back:- * L$300 weekly stipend *L$1000 as a one-off "welcome" bonus payment after 45 days. I'll leave you to calculate the value of the Linden Dollar (L$) paybacks!
  3. Yes, something is wrong! It may be a script for setup/testing left in accidentally. First, re-rez the home using the mailbox. Your furniture etc will stay in place, so don't worry about that. If that doesn't fix it, raise a support ticket. You'll find more info about this sort of thing in the Linden Homes topic. https://community.secondlife.com/forums/forum/357-linden-homes/
  4. I would find that to be really useful function; brilliant idea!
  5. That's sad! I'll add my weight to this request; @RaeLeeH has done a superb job here. This is a really good package of "Everything You Need to Know About Claiming a New Linden Home", and is definitely worth being sticky! Thank you, Rae, for taking the time and effort to do all of this!
  6. Don't worry about that! It made for lovely, easy reading..... ....for a change!
  7. I hate public transport! That is why I walk.
  8. Forum police? Oh no! I didn't see them - I'd better be very, very careful from now on.
  9. Well, that's a result! Under the circumstances, you should grab it with both hands - congratulations!
  10. Its really weird, I couldn't possibly explain it, but I feel exactly the same way! Somehow I just need to know that there's a functional bathroom, functional kitchen etc. I try to keep things to a bare minimum, but the basics just have to be there!
  11. From my experience, and from what others are saying, it looks like that's exactly what's happening.
  12. With the seemingly millisecond take-up rate at the moment, having to use the dropdown to select will doom you to failure, sadly. But its always worth the try if the Bellisaria homes don't show. Its BELLISSERIA! Heavens above, that's SO easy to mis-spell!
  13. I managed to get a houseboat on the second large release, but at first, the Bellisseria options weren't showing. It was only after a couple of fruitless attempts that I thought to just try the drop-down arrow and there they were! (That was using Chrome browser). At that time, everyone was saying that, if available, the Bellisseria homes will show at the top. But, oh no, they didn't! Other people reported the same issue, so it clearly applied to quite a few of us, but not all. Apologies, Marianne - it wasn't you that said that, it was PrudenceAnton
  14. I've got a teddy bare... annnnnd you could see him from outside! I've locked him away a bit quick; can't have people throwing kinky accusations at him!
  15. A bit like when governments print money to make things look good. It comes back to bite them in the bot eventually!
  16. 20th or 24-26th Sune. In Bellissarian dialect, that's how June is pronounced. (So are all the other months; it just keeps things simple).
  17. Pre-Amazon High Streets are amazing, aren't they? Maybe one day they'll return
  18. Government HQ: Visitor: "May I come in?" Chief Secretary of State for Security: "Oh, I'm so glad you've asked me that, but first, I must say, as I've said to the Government on so many occasions in the past, and I know that I speak for a very large number of my constituents and fellow countrymen, that issues like these so often get talked about so many times, a lot of unnecessary words being bandied around, nobody ever sitting down and properly taking all the factors into account... Visitor: Ok, ok - I give up! Bye
  19. Ah, right. Sorry, I misunderstood what you meant.
  20. There's also a significant difference between the ban lines a normal person will see when ban lines are set (not, of course, in Bellisseria) by un-checking "Anyone Can Visit", and the ban lines a person who is banned by name sees. From SL's Wiki ( http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Limits ), under the Land heading: - Ban line height for "no entry" or "pay to access" (in other words, "allow public access" is turned off, or "allow group access" is turned on, in the parcel options) is the parcel's ground elevation plus 50 meters (except, if the region has been set to "Block Parcel Fly Over" in which case the access controls extend to at least 4096 meters). If a user is explicitly banned by name, the height is the parcel's ground elevation plus 5000 meters. On current viewers this is visible to the full extent.I I wonder if this difference has an influence on the observed behaviour between having a person on the ban list or not? I guess that the Belliseria setup was just a butchered version of the old system rules setup, so there's likely to be some hangover?
  21. Let's hope that never happens. If you had a home on that region and couldn't get back into it because it was full of flock, you'd be seriously annoyed! If you did get back in, you'd probably find the sim was on its knees because of all the scripted hair, re-sizers, "personal bits" etc. that folks seem to think they'll lose if they don't wear them all the time. Definitely not a good idea!
  22. Even if it isn't, I rather suspect you'll still have a big smile on your face! I'm sure you'll love it 😉
  23. I'm sorry, but I have not understood you well. Did you mean a name for the next landmass of newly created premium Linden Homes, or did you mean the last release of houseboats released on the atolls? I was under the impression that the latest houseboats on the atolls were still part of Bellisseria (as named by LL). Somebody will correct me, I'm sure, if I'm wrong.
  24. I understood what you meant. You would have thought that there ought to be a way of temporarily shutting a script down completely, without deleting it. I have the sneakiest of suspicions that it would need a script to do that....... and so the problem would continue, ad infinitum! But maybe a single script could put a temporary lid on a whole set of scripts? That surely would make a saving. As I have absolutely zilch knowledge of scripting, I'm sure the script whizkids will soon say yea or nay to that.
