    Do you think there will be a new 512m2 home style?

    Adding to the post over:

    I hear that often. New homes? What's that?

    So, I am believing people stay in the old homes, because they do not know about new ones. It can not be true that it is many people who need 512's with that low prim limit.

     

    Based on my conversations with seasoned SL & premium members, they DID NOT know about the new log cabin releases (some did not know about the upgraded mesh homes either).  I happen to stumble across information regarding the log cabin theme; however for it to be more equitable for all premium members I hope LL develops a way to actively notify premium members (maybe an in world notecard/message from LL to ALL PREMIUM members) - because a lot of SL players do not come to the forums, and are not aware of the Bellisseria group. 

    As a new premium member and Bellisseria "citizen" - I am very much an outsider.  The community is very warm, welcoming and helpful; however I feel bad that so many premium members are left out of the loop.  Because of this, I now make a point to share information with other SL players.  I have taken the position of doing what I can to share news/information regarding LL themed homes with players outside of Bellisseria and as a result three SL friends are now NEW and proud residents in Bellisseria.

    As for 512 vs 1024, I am sure LL has metrics on which style homes are taken first, held longer, in maintenance longer.  Just from watching Patch's updates, it is clear Houseboats, Victorians and Traditionals do not come up often and are picked up and held for a while.  The campers were "emptied out" and my guess is people flocked to log cabins, but eventually campers inventory declined.  I have faith in LL - they are SMART BUSINESS MINDED PEOPLE (how many platforms can boast almost 2 decades of a loyal player base and there is zero objective/guidance from the creators on what to do in SL) and listen to their customers.

    I think most or all of us do that already, as evidenced by many posts in this very thread. :) 

    Since I'm pretty new....I do see people releasing on alts....to go for something else...or hold a property and create/upgrade an alt to find something better.  The wonderful thing about Second Life is we can each enjoy it how we want because you can create your own reality space in a virtual world.  It is a beautiful thing and pray that everyone finds what they are seeking in Second Life.

    And more importantly....

    I pray that each of you remains healthy & safe as the world "battles" COVID-19.

    wow--its been over a week and still 3300 cabins and back to very few Trads, HBs and Vickies. 

    That says something about what people want I guess...it gonna take a month to move these cabins!?

    4800 log cabins were created, and now only 3,300 homes remain - that means 1,500 log homes have been claimed since release AND there is very low inventory for Victorians and houseboats.

    With the state of the world at the moment, and a lot of people worldwide concerned about their income stream, log cabins may be moving a bit slower than Linden Labs projected (I have ZERO insight on Linden Labs projections) is understandable.  I am confident that as the world opens back up and people are back to work or have more disposable income, the log homes will go faster. 

    Additionally, I suspect there is a large population of premium members, and "senior" SL players (9+ years), who don't know about the new style Linden Homes/Community .  I am grateful to have stumbled across someone in the Helping Haven group who knew about the showcase and shared the link.  When I visited the log cabin showcase area, I fell in LOVE with the houses/theme, and upgraded to premium so I could have a SL home in the woods.  I picked up a Traditional (so I could learn about Linden homes in general), then changed out to a houseboat (to see another style home), then gave up the houseboat for a log cabin.

    Some premium members had NO idea about the new Linden homes- A friend of mine has been in SL for 9+ years and had no idea log cabins were a theme/available until I talked to them about it - and now they have a BEAUTIFUL log home (have to admit I have location envy...but I am very happy for them).

    In closing.....

    To those who do not have alts, and have been searching for the right home - I hope you find the Linden home / community of your dreams - you will find it if you keep looking.

    To those who do have alts - I hope each home you hold brings you joy/pleasure and you have time to "live" in each property....and if one of them does not - consider releasing - because it may be just right for someone who is still searching.

    I was looking for a more organic/nature themed hot tub and rushed to see this, than realized that the second hot tub is part of the build and it does this:

    So it's got particles going on, I guess. Not for me (in addition to the whole adult thing going on with it and this store).
     

    That is odd...I did a quick sit and did not see particles coming from either.  Could it be the wind was blowing the bubbles?  Either way...thought I would share...because had not seen anything like that with the rocks...and some of the log homes are on rocky plateaus. 

    Will try to say if adult...unless there is flat out graphic in-your-face stuff (or clearly a BDSM place) - I pretty much look past a lot of the adult/mature content.

    Hope everyone is getting the log cabin of their dreams 🙂

    Sitting in the boat, and about to go for an evening sail...and then realized a storm is brewing...maybe better to keep the boat docked....then again, trying to discover if Bellisseria has something like the Bermuda Triangle is tugging at my sense of adventure.  If you never see me again...you know there is a "Bellisseria Triangle".

    And (hours later)...here is another one from {Why Not?}.  It is $1L if you're a group member.  The table, and each chair is 3 LI, and will rez up to 8 chairs (automatically 2 chairs - so initial rez is 9 LI).
