    Let it forever be known that this houseboat is haunted!  Sorry we don't disclose hauntings before acquisition, best of luck with it, hopefully it's friendly.  A marker stone has been placed and it should be entered into the haunted tour locations.

    I admit, I was curious how you were going to mark a ghost on a houseboat. So I stealthed in LOL TP'd to the region first and after making sure no one was around, I took the SLURL. Anyone else worried landing in someone's home, you don't :)

    hi, I just joined today! twice I got teleported to adult areas while I was still figuring out how to walk LMAO!!!! one guy just said hi, then the telport thing popped up so I clicked :D nek minnut hes asking me if I want to hop in his bed LMAO! I am in the 40yr old group but it would be nice to meet people who would like to show me around at a slower pace HAHAHAHA

    Hi there! I'm in the 40+ crowd :) what are some things you are interested in? I'm typically dancing on my work platform while organizing inventory, building, or decorating my house in between exploring around Bellisseria or shopping sales and events (to decorate more!). Which keeps my RL husband happy lol because as long as I am in here decorating it keeps me from going, "you know, I have an idea and it requires a trip to Lowe's..." in RL!

    Hmm what if they did it alphabetically and numerically? For instance they announce "june 30 there will be 1000 houses and 900 houseboats available for premium members with names from a to e". Whatever is leftover could be offered to the next 0 to 2 starting names. If the amount of a-e goes above then they would be in line for the next lump of homes along with f-j names and 3-5 names.Or wait till the end of the alphabet and start the letter and number groups over for remaining that didnt get theirs in time due to whatever reason. It may sound confusing but it could be worked out better. Its a thought tho😜🤪

    I'll take my chances with Refresh Roulette. I don't need LL calling my name the same time AARP is looking for me.

    Guilty shameful secret here...

    I learned a lot of my vocabulary from reading.  Most of the time, though, when I came across a new word, I would pick up its meaning from context, and guess at its pronunciation from its spelling.  This worked well for most words, but I was deeply embarrassed the first time I used "epi-TOME" in a spoken sentence.

    I love reading. So when I was in elementary school, I was reading books many years ahead of what my teacher had on our vocabulary lists. For more years than I care to admit I thought that chaos (Kay-os) and chaos (Chah-oes) were 2 different words that meant the same thing.

    I honestly find it kind of flattering when I see someone's crosshairs on me.  I'm weird like that though ;) 

    Makes me want to make mesh panties with a freenis on them, or a hand flipping the bird, or even a Have a Nice Day" :) on them. I mean give them something different to look at if they're going to look. Apparently the naked mesh Picasso upon landing didn't give them enough of a view ;)

    When I have something I don't want to get accidentally changed or picked up, I set it to "locked" in the build editor. Learned my lesson after trying to grab something on the ground of my sky platform and grabbing the platform instead!

    That specific change looks like some kind of weird error, though, probably not something you did.

    My locking lesson happened when I was making jewelry (back in the micro prim era) and attached half of my house to an earring.

     

    I also learned to make jewelry on the beach that day, too.

    The person behind Zoya is over 40. Zoya herself is frozen in time at an age before my autoimmune disease changed me. She is young enough to wear bikinis and sexy little dresses and old enough to also have a collection of leggings, sweaters, and every pair of jeans L&B has made. Oh, and bunny slippers.

    O Lordy! You all know I get ideas from y'all too. That's the beauty of this thread. We can share and learn from each other. We can find different ways to use things we already have in our inventories or find new things that will complete that certain look we've been trying to achieve. We ALL have something to offer and we ALL have a unique way of doing things that benefits EVERYONE. Please keep sharing and never hold back!

    While I still feel like a little kid playing with Legos next to you (I've upgraded myself from Duplo blocks lol), your talent and your pictures inspire me to push myself harder and try new decorating ideas. For so many years I have just bare bones decorated with the thought "if I have to pick this up quick to get more prims for a build" that I never really thought about rooms I don't use (like kitchens! Remember the prim hogs those were?) and now i have multiple kitchen sets! I made a bathroom yesterday even lol, and I have a laundry room. I've been playing the linking game with decor trying to squeeze out a few more Li. And slowly my building skills are improving again :)

    Thank you Abnor (and Patch in the group chat) for clarifying the systems and the vendors for us! I have no problem grabbing my own bait and then picking it back up into inventory. :)

    Too bad a Mole or Linden couldn't have bait vendors out. The cut the vendor owner gets could go towards a charity or a pizza party for you guys.

    Continuous Harrassment

    in General Discussion Forum

    Posted

    Report. Report. Report. Even if it is just annoying harassment now, it has started the paper trail for if/when she escalates. And someone that has 20+ alts is going to escalate. If you have proof they are her alts being used to get around blocks and bans, include that in your reports.

    If you're up to it, make alts yourselves. If you are premium, you can just log into your mains and send the stipends to the alts. Make new friends on the alts. Explore new areas of SL. 

    I was where your partner is, 12 yrs ago. My RL ex was stalking and harassing me in SL and using it to harass me in RL. Only when I made my alt, I killed Zoya. She didn't show up in search, wasn't in groups, and disappeared from friends lists. For 9 years it bothered me that I let him push me to that point. It felt like he had won because I lost Zoya, her friends, her business, and her inventory of memories. In 2016 with the support of my RL husband and LL we brought her back. Her inventory was empty and her friends were long gone, but I had her back. I don't recommend going as far as I did and losing your mains, but the new alts might give you some peace of mind until his psycho ex moves on to another target.

    I do not think that there should be actual commercial activity in Bellisseria.  The biggest issue I see with that is if creators start getting "free" (with premium) store locations in or connected to Bellisseria, then every premium level creator would think they should be able to have a store there.  If there was a limited number allowed, I think that would turn into a headache for LL to administer and there would always be creators who felt the method was unfair. 

    That is similar to what I was about to write. While I like the idea of shops in theme, the reality of that is how would one go about enforcing that and making it fair? 

    I've lived in a few tourist towns. From rich gated communities that look very similar to Bellisseria, and their commercial districts complete with high end tasteful decor that caters to that gated community of summer homes, to tourist traps that have cheap and tacky junk you wouldn't see at a yard sale. 

    How would we separate them fairly? Would it be original creations only to keep the thousands of gacha, breedables, and pop up/reseller junk out of there? Would they only be able to sell strictly in theme items? Would they have to be residents of Bellisseria to be there? And if that were the case, how would the land work. Rentals so it doesn't go over the 1024? Or would the stores be 1024 as well and you have a choice of a home or business? Too many variables that would possibly cause anger from anyone just wanting to say they have a store and might feel slighted. 

    While I like idea of a strictly in theme shopping district, I can already see the "where is MY store, I'm premium too!" threads outnumbering the house threads.

    I've crammed a lot into this room but it feels more cozy than crowded I think.

    Is that a modified version of the WN Laurel Cottage Kitchen set? The sink & props look like it, but the butcher's block doesn't. If it is, I am glad I bought it when I did because I went back a few days later to get the link for someone and found it gone from the MP :(

    Thanks for your reply. Boy alt joined both (cause he had group slots), had a few wanders and went to some of the house tour places. It's been really quiet every time I've gone, but I ran into Matty's pub and that gave me an idea for a way to feel part of the community even if I miss out on most of the activity. So boy alt is now premium (cause VAT is a stinker and Bitsy needs her tier for the shop).

    New question - Is email the only way to find out when a new set is released? I am lousy at checking email any more.

    Are you better at checking the forums? (I am here way more than I check my emails lol) there is a thread stickied to the top of this forum (Linden Homes) I think it is the third one down from the top. That Patch Linden does updates in. Not good at linking on my phone so hopefully you spot it or someone can link it.

    Bye Bye Premium

    Imagine the complaints if they had raised the rates first, before revealing the new Linden homes. There would be 2000 threads about "WHY RAISE RATES WHEN WE GET NOTHING IN RETURN????? BYE SL I AM LEAVING U 4EVER!!!"

    I agree.

    Premium has not been raised, ever! Instead of just raising it and being done, they have started releasing the new homes, which have a thriving community. Those that signed up just for the new houses did so before the price hike. LL even has gone so far as to give a 3 week grace period (starting June 3rd) where current premiums can get another year at the current cost. They did not have to do that at all. So those waiting for a new house will still be paying the same price they were paying before the first house was even released. (And you can take that as meaning the first house in 2010, or the first house in 2019, because the premium has been the same cost since it was introduced.)
