    The biggest frustrating comes from the point that people not did have a change to grab or try to grab a home. If you release all homes at the same time it's chaos. And lot's of people cannot be online at that time too. Also the time where unknown so people could not make time for it, or say to bad not going to get one this time.

    Linden lab could know better after the first release of the homes. And deploy this batch different.The biggest benefit with premium are the new linden homes, only reason why i did cancel the cancel of premium. So not a surprise if people get frustrated. You pay for something you mabye get when winter is coming.

     

    Normal mainland parcels are not so good as the new linden homes. unless linden lab is going to double prim count on mainland. Enough reason to get a new linden home and enough reasons to get frustrated if you not get one.

    That‘s the point! If my english would have been much better, I would have posted it in exact the same words you did! 😉

    Gosh, people are excited about this, huh? I've always had mainland parcels, and always public, always trying to make them seem welcoming to surrounding parcels by being on the ground and terraforming to not make it cubed off, smoothing it trying to make it all flow with neighbors... But then people like putting up privacy screens and ban lines, so I've always had the impression nobody in SL wants to live in a neighborhood community. I'm happy to see that's not the case, and it kinda makes me want one now....

    Fully agree with you! On my former mainland I had neighbors, who surrounded me with ugly skyboxes which they put on the ground instead of putting them in sky. If you ever visited Xondar you may have noticed, that the sim looks like a complete mess. And thats one of the reasons for me to shut down my House and Club on Xondar and make a new start  with the New Linden Homes ...

    The last chapter was a bit confusing for me: It is incomprehensible that the gardener was the murderer and NOT the butler ....

    Maybe you should revise it and than post the novel again. Thanks in advance!

    Could I write the special invitation for long-time premium members? Let's see...

    "Dear Premium Member,

    As you've been paying money (and probably having your own property) for years into a system that's designed around individual creativity we figure that you aren't capable of making an environment for yourself that's better than these new limited-option houses we've made that are really meant as "starter homes" so we thought you'd like to have first crack at one of them."

    LOL, this invitation would be an initiation of endless new topics here in forum. 😉

    But seriously: A lot of people bought land here in SL and invested a lot of money for it and a lot of time with building stuff on it ... and some of those lands turned into an lagging-hell later which made it impossible to use it anymore. For those people the Linden Houses are not an Downgrade!

    I read the whole thing, you are clearly mad that you didn't get a home. When it was stated here in the forums, that houseboats were limited to 709 of them. You were given an ample amount of time, to be warned and to be ready to grab a home. As I said before, it is first come first serve. That isn't gonna change, nor are people making posts, in the forums that it's unfair that they didn't get a home, isn't gonna change it either. As I also said before, you just have to be patient. Stuff like this takes time. But this is like the umpteenth post on the forums, that basically goes. I'm just gonna get cancel premium since I didn't  get my Linden Home right away. To me that is whining, and thinking that they should have gotten one of those homes, before anyone else. Look do what the rest of us have to, keep on refreshing the page. A house of your dreams will pop up. Anyways, I have spoke too long. Happy Hunting. 😀

    Maybe you did not read the message, where I said:

    „So ... yes ... my first reaction was a bit too harsh and I apologize for this.“

    I am not whining, just wrote a message in a state of a bad mood ... and apologized for it. Maybe this does not fit to an ideal world, where people are always feeling great and always do the right things ....

    In the Forums, Patch said they were releasing 709 homes. I don't know why people are really complaining about it, it's first come first serve. Can you not wait until the next batch of homes release? Or we just gonna have people constantly whining, that it's not fair that I didn't go onto the Linden house selector fast enough. Have some patience please, it's not the end of the world that you didn't get a Linden Home.

    Well, all of it was said already before (read the first 8 posts of this topic) and I already explained why I wrote the topic post ...

    And to make it clear: I am not constantly whining .... 😞

    You DO get all the benfits. They promise an LL Home, not which type. I see PLENTY available right now (and there are nine (NINE!) styles of meadowbrook to choose from!) Though if you cancel your Premium then that will leave one more for the next person, right? That is is thoughtful of you! :)

    Yes, of course you are right .... I know. But see: Living in SL is always a state between happiness and deep frustration .... and the minutes after realizing, that all announced house boats were sold out shortly after release were one of that frustrating moments. So ... yes ... my first reaction was a bit too harsh and I apologize for this.

  8. Wow, thank you for the hint, Theresa!

    I now tried again and after a lot of failed tries with „unknown error“ and „your selected Home is sold out“ messages, finally it worked!

    I hope, that other user will read this before trying to get one of the new house boats ... and maybe are able to get one by trying again and again ....

    Thanks again!

  9. Today Linden Labs announced to provide Premium Users with new Linden Holmes (House Boats) .... At the time available, I tried to get one, but all were sold out within minutes!!! So tell me now: What is the advantage of being a premium member for almost a year, if you are not able to participate from the premium member benefits???

    I guess I will cancel my premium membership the next days ....
