    I have another question.  Once the 2048 parcels are available, if you upgrade to PP and get a 2048 parcel, do you lose it if you downgrade to regular Premium?

    I assume you would, but  it would be nice to have an official word on that.  Maybe in the FAQ.

    It would probably prompt you to abandon first, like you can’t downgrade now because you have a house.

  2. Bellisseria is not a loss for Linden Lab. They're not doing this out of the kindness of their hearts. Maybe in 2019 when the homes launched, they hired a bunch of contractors (moles) and brought up regions to support the continent. It's spendy to hire all those contractors year after year to design these regions, but eventually, they will profit and cut back on the contractors once Bellisseria is completed. The reason they may be feeling an operating cost loss at the moment is because many regions are EMPTY. They need to drive more new residents to this world. With a concurrent login of around ~200K residents, that's a great number, but what fraction of those residents are premium AND own a linden home?

    We shall see how it works but quite frankly the ticket system is quite good because I have no desire to mess around with land pages.

    AFAIK, everyone uses the land page to acquire a home, or were you "loopholed" into one?

    So someone who has numerous Premium Plus accounts could in essence claim several prime spots and then pass them on to their friends through the loophole that exists on the land page without said friends even being PP?

    Then go on and do it repeatedly in other regions?

    What loophole? Please share with the class. 🤩 I hadn't even thought about starting a Premium Plus House Squatting Empire, but you're giving me so many ideas. /s

    What we need is a button in the viewer so we can stand on an empty Linden home parcel and press "CLAIM"

     

    This is a brilliant idea and would make me go premium plus so fast. Button enabled for plus members only!

    It's a definite go for me.

    I pay L$0.25 per square meter per week to rent tier, so 2,048 is worth L$512 per week, L$26,624 per year, $106.50 per year.

    L$650 per week equals L$33,800 per year, equals $135.20 per year.

    $106.50 + $135.20 = $241.70 per year.

    $249.00 - $241.70 =  $8.30.

    Sure, I'd gladly pay $8.30 per year just to have 140 groups and nothing else, but I'll probably save more than $8.30 a year in texture upload fees, so I'll probably make money on it.

    It's $600 stipend. And the introductory rate of $249 is just that.. next year it will be $299.

    $600 stipend = $31,200 per year = $124.42
    $249 - $124.42 = $124.58 the first year

    $299 - $124.42 = $174.58 all the years after.

  7. Seems Fantasy is removed entirely from the land page, because all these abandons from April are still Linden Home. Perhaps they're preparing to re-arrange the way you select Bellissera homes, and broke a few things on purpose. I was never a fan of the drop-down, because all of the other continents are outdated. They're probably preparing to retire the old homes for good, and accidentally nuked a few new themes, LOL!
