thats not the image i get when reading your few posts in this thread
waving around all your good actions that keep you so importand and busy is shameless ugly, you think nobody of us talks to people with a deadly illness?, nobody here had relatives and friends die? nobody here has to deal with sick kids?, nobody here him/herself has to deal with very serious RL trouble, illnes or even have SL as only possbile contact with friends?
Put your feet on the ground an climb down your throne.This post has nothing to do with it correct. We all have health issues, even I. The post shouldn't be here at all. It should be removed from taking a photo of me and downward. That is the issue. Got a gripe? take it up with the original poster. That is where the issue lies. That is the person who first started the drama. Best wishes. Ruby

It would not, because no one knew your name until you arrived and self-identified.
The moment the person IMed me that sent me the link showed they knew who I was. Name on it or not. They knew the sim, they knew the photo. Just saying, don't post others photos without asking. Thank you. Blessings, Ruby

I think someone is protesting too much. Relax, people were just having a laugh. You have to admit, it looked odd to see several avatars parking their pixel behinds in front of empty lots like they were waiting to pounce.
They obviously weren't here then when others were sitting on the signs, one standing on the barrier pole at top, and 2 fur avatars making out in a boat along the shore... People have to get their homes anyways through their account, so standing here doing nothing shouldn't be an issue.. Instead you get people IMing you going... you're keeping them from building... Um.. no... no one is keeping them from building. It is already set up nicely inside the mailbox.. all they have to do is set it up where you try and get the house through your account. If someone has an issue, then just stick to refreshing their account home area and leave people like myself alone and stop posting about it. True? Also having a laugh at another expense I don't see very polite either. Remember, every person in SL has feelings, even the ones posting. If they don't wish to get feed back in defense, then maybe shouldn't post to begin with. Just saying. - Blessings, Ruby

I get where you’re coming from in defense of being talked about on the forum, but I do not understand how this statement correlates to the situation. The amount of money one has put in does not necessarily define their character.
Understood, but until someone had posted about me to begin with, this never would have been an issue. I haven't bothered anyone, and now I have to defend myself. Strange in Second Life. Personally, I would just like them to delete this thread and move on. It doesn't warrant even having a photo of me or anyone else. Instead, would that be a form of TOS form of harassment? Just a thought. Blessings - Ruby

Possibly. I was thinking that since it was obvious how folks got SO EXCITED when the atoll moved over and they could watch, that TPTB decided to LET them watch LOL. See all the comments between the time I posted last night and this morning. I also noted that they have now closed off the sims so that folks can't teleport in. I was surprised they hadn't done that earlier. Anyway, that is a very nice area so hopefully the new plots will be a great addition to the continent.
I shared this post with one of the Moles. Explained what was going on. People need to find a life, and leave others alone who haven't bothered anyone. Such a shame... I've been trying to promote Second Life, and it is posts like this makes me wonder why I bother... Blessings, Ruby

Well her Avatar sitting there musn't mean her RL self spent all nicht in front of the computer.
She didn't answer me, so I guess she parked her Avatar there camping, left the computer on and went to bed - or to work.
Btw. they are both using the same sitting pose - there are no poses in the walkways - so what does that tell us?
I find it interesting that this line has made it to as far as it has. I guess you all are bored and feel the need to police people on Second Life. Perhaps instead, maybe focus on your own time in SL and less worry about people in game. If you are so concerned about my welfare.. I'll let you know how I spent my time. I most of the time was in RL.. on the webcam with another SL player who is older and was lonely (because most of you all focus on pointing out people instead of getting to know them. I don't. I get to know people, chat with people. There are a lot of nice folks out there. .I promote SL to schools, colleges, as well as skill centers for those going in the graphics program. I've spent over $11,000.00 in one year alone in here, I doubt you all have. No, instead, you post on here going.. OMG... there is someone sitting minding their own business.. I need to put my two cents worth in.
Another thing, after I got off webcam with 1 SL player, then I got on the phone with ANOTHER SL player who's father is dying of cancer. Who has already lost her mother, her daughter, and now has to put her life on hold to care for her VA father in his last few months he has left. Wow.. makes you feel extra special now, right?
Oh and if I didn't answer you, my apologies. I might have hrm... had a RL where I took my son to the doctors due to pain he was having. Yes, I spend my time helping others, not posting about OMG.; this person feels the need to camp. No, I came over to check it out, found myself talking to people, then forgot I logged there still in game. Honestly, before you open your mind to get attention, find another way that is more giving and positive. That way you don't come off looking so foolish. God Bless. - Ruby

honestly this is why they should just let people watch from the adjacent sims and block everyone else out... you get people doing stupid 💩 like that
While you feel the need to be very negative to the people of Second Life. I might have been sitting there (harmlessly no less), I was on the phone with another Second Life citizen who was depressed because she had to go on leave because her father was dying of cancer. So if I didn't answer any of you, it was because I was trying to comfort someone who already lost a daughter, a mother, and now possibly her only income to sit at home while she cares for her dying father.
Something to think about. Take care and God Bless. - Ruby

I'll just drop this question in this part of the forum I guess...
How come in the region Sutherfield, where the moles are building in, we have a resident sitting at what appears to be the front stoop/mailbox of several of the lots... Do they think if they sit there that they have a greater chance of claiming that lot when it becomes available?

On 5/15/2019 at 11:16 PM, LittleMe Jewell said:They actually did a 709 Houseboat release this morning - so yeah her prediction was a little off, but the release has happened (and all houseboats have been taken).
Patch's post has been closed to comments since the day he created it last month. He has added updates, but never opened it for comments. Anyone could have gone to the thread and click on the "Follow" button, set their notifications to email, and they would have received an email for every update that Patch did.
He updated it yesterday around noon or so SLT and said that the release of the new houseboats would be within 24 hours. When he updated it again at roughly 10:00 am SLT, to say that the houseboats had been released, he also added the following comment:
"We know they will go very quickly, but as time goes on we will get more out, and hopefully faster.
Our next focus will be to bring more Traditional Homes plus more Houseboats in another smaller launch while working in parallel to a larger launch and an exciting new theme.
As usual, stay tuned here for more updates!"I flew up to Michigan from Texas the 16th through the 21st. Just got back last night. Sadly, missed another chance I think of getting one. Hoping one of these days that my luck will be a bit better what with everything going on in my life. I don't regret going up for my grandson's 3rd birthday though.
I've been watching the properties though, and some places with notations on them that the moles are at work. Will be glad when they get this all sorted out and a bit of normalcy return to the norm. I had to laugh where you said stay tuned, I have no place really to know when something will be shared about updates until it is too late. I'm a bit lost at the moment. Thank you though for your sharing though. Blessings.

On 5/16/2019 at 12:49 AM, Chic Aeon said:ACTUALLY I think the most foolproof method for knowing when it is TIME is to simply watch the map. The closer we got to noon this time the more likely it would be "any minute now". I was refreshing the screen before the announcement (I never actually SAW that announcement) came out. About that time the houseboats and some houses started showing up and the website started giving out continuous error messages. That was a hint there. One look at the map and it was obvious that the game was afoot :D.
Having thoroughly enjoyed the first release last month with lots of chatting and laughter and congrats and such from other citizens, I have to say this was much more stressful and I didn't even want a houseboat :D. But there really isn't any other way that I can see. Eventually things will even out and plots won't be so difficult to get ---- but until then, it's going to be tough.
I just got the map, stumbled on that one. I actually have 2 premium accounts. One for my main, one for my builder. I was out of state for a week. Was kind of hoping to come back to the chance to get at least one. Someone recently told me to just keep refreshing my house thing. So, now my time is spent in refreshing. I don't go by "any minute now" because depending on where you are at (I am in CST), one can never be certain to when they mean it or not.
I thought about joining the Community just to be in the loop, but not being a resident, I wasn't sure if that was allowed, and didn't want to cause any problems with a chance to get a home. I have now been finding myself wandering in the different regions, and having people come up to me asking me if I am a spy *facepalms*
I do look forward though eventually getting a home, and would like to be part of the community. I just feel lost these days, and lonely at times.
Anyways.. thank you for your input. It is greatly appreciated. Blessings.

I subscribed for a SL premium account specifically to get the new LL home, but it is still not available. More than a month has passed, and still there is no news about it.
Please inform me when can I expect the new LL homes to become available? Thank you.
I've been a Premium for over 11 years dear. I would say at this time with Patch Linden closed his post about the new places, that it is more than likely won't be available any time soon. And they won't inform you personally. They usually just out of the blue post a notice about it on their blog here and if you're lucky to catch the post and get in when the wave hits, maybe you might get lucky enough to get one. Hang in there though, one never knows when... Blessings.

On 5/9/2019 at 8:39 AM, Alyona Su said:Based on deductive reasoning of everything I've seen written by Lindens and Moles, etc., my hypothesis is sometime today (May 9) between 12PM and 6PM (SL time) or on Monday the 13th (most likely) between 9AM and 12PM SL time, with Tuesday the 14th as a distant third in likeliness. Just a guess. I base this on things said by Patch and Moles and the typical history (13 years for me and from what I recall over those years) of when Linden Lab likes to do things like this.
So I would say it is an absolutely definite possible maybe could be.
Thank you for the chuckle.
As I've just taken a peek to see if they listed the new locations yet, and they aren't there.. I fear your hypothesis needs a little more "tweaking". -

On 4/18/2019 at 10:05 AM, Lynn Zelin said:I am guessing all the new Linden homes are taken. I abandoned my old linden house and now I ant get one of the new ones...Please don't let me be homeless...lol..Do we know how long before I can get one? I want one of the traditional ones.
I know what you mean. I abandoned my old linden house as well. I want one of the traditional ones as well. ❤️
I am a Premium Member as well. I recently fell, so have had to take some time resting (with pain pills). Hoping to get one of the new ones before the 16th if possible. Before my fall, I had purchased tickets to go up and see my son and his family. My grand son's 3rd birthday is this month.
I've been wandering around the new lands hoping to find a possibility of a home available. Nothing yet.
Blessings.

I would like to have it on Marketplace that besides No Copy, No Mod, No Transfer, they add DEMO. That way you can clean up the Marketplace and get rid of it when you try to search for something free you don't get half the fake things that aren't demo, but the designers put that in there so that it brings it up. It is rather annoying when I could care less about Demo's on Marketplace. Leave Demo's for the store when you visit them. Otherwise, the word Demo in some instances is misleading and with so many pages to go through, gets rather annoying.
I agree, I also find where people put Gift, or they put Demo, and then they aren't free. I think after 11 years, it is time to start cleaning up the Marketplace to represent Second Life properly.
Thank you and Blessings.

To be honest, right now I would rather see the moles working on more (and varied) housing regions than on a "city center" which may or may not continue to be popular a year from now when all the hype of the new continent and community has worn off. It's hard to gauge how many of the new residents are really into being part of a community long term, or how many might be if only there were <whatever buildings and/or activities>. But first, I'd like to see the housing built out.
I have to agree. I'd rather the moles work on the housing regions first. I also like the person's idea of giving you a box to click on which home you would prefer, houseboat or traditional. Then when the home is ready, they could send the person a link where their new home could be found at under (housing). Just a thought. I also have to agree with the person who said they would prefer the drive way to line up properly with the house. if on the corner of the street, put a fire hydrant if you want to keep with a neighborhood theme. (I have one where I live in my real world, as I live on the corner). Blessings

LAQ uses motion capture for theirs and others are going the same way. They're already using it for body animations so adding the head/face is easy enough
LAQ has come a long way from their original name RaC (Raspberry & Cow) :)

Wasn't TMP originally The Body Co that was part of theWarehouse at one time?

yes that is what OP is saying. Double-prim the old Linden Homes
It would resolve a lot of the tenseness though if they did so. Perhaps they don't want to give up their old place if they had the same amount of prims.
I am not in the mind of the person though, so couldn't say either way. I have better things to do in my real life world, so that is why you don't see me saying much in here.
Some people in here though, feel the need to put a voice, not always friendly or helpful, and that doesn't help matters either.
I appreciate what Linden Lab has done for us since my first appearance from IMVU to here in transition 11 years ago. We've come a long way.
Blessings.

Ohhhh I see! Jolly good. Well then, let's get some cheese to have with that whine, shall we?
My husband is an IT in coding, it does take time when working with long strands of digits. I am sure they think they understand, but with a project such as this, they might not realize that it goes a bit more deep than what they think. Though, I think we all need to show a bit more compassion. I am assuming that many in here writing have probably already have their new place and feel the need to still put in a jab here or there. Might be more beneficial not to say anything at all. Blessings.

I think what he is saying is. If they are adding the 300+ prims to the new places, why not just give the same allotment of prims to the older homes as well. Am I correct? As for how much one spends in SL. I think I could top that *coughs* that amount by -000 digits more.. but patience is a virtue. There are many of us who have been around SL for 11+ yrs waiting along side with you and others. I abandoned my Linden Home I had, so that I wouldn't contend with having the silent mess of having to abandon it and then get the new. I look forward to when I am able for the New home. (I prefer not the houseboat). A friend of mine told me about another friend who was fortunate enough to get hers. So now we all do the waiting game until then. Blessings.

For the homes that were taken up. I walked through the other day, a lot of them are empty, a few decorated. Kind of like the ones before.
Hopefully people will start to use them, instead of just having them just to have them (trophies)

Don't feel alone dear. My husband in RL had a heart attack and was in the hospital from the 12th - 16th and when we finally got home, I found out they had them available and they were already gone. So now I too play the waiting game. I am happy though that they are upgrading the land though. I've been in SL over 11 yrs now. I am curious though, does this change my premium land info then? -
Peak square meter usage: 512.00 square meters -
I know this is a late entry, though I would like to ask something as well. Is it possible to uncheck DEMO, so that those of us who shop do not half to fight or block the page off our computers when we don't want to see demo's when we shop? As having a bit of knowledge of programming, I know that one can set up a flag to look for certain things to check ( I used to be a web designer). There is a section on the left for NO MOD / NO COPY/ NO TRANSFER. I would love to see another one added NO DEMO.
It is rather tedious when you have to put a bunch of * and other remarks into a search section just to look through to locate something.
Thank you.
Sincerely,

No head, but some system skins that are out there are very pretty with the mesh body if you can't afford the mesh head.
Also, remember if you buy a mesh head, you are going to need an applier for the head to match the mesh body skin for the Lara body.
Myself, I use the Catwa head with my Lara body, then I have the SLink hands and feet with it.
You will also find that you might need to find a neck fix if it doesn't blend properly.
Always use DEMO if you're not sure. Just because you see a skin you like, it will look differently on the shape.
Better to be safe, than sorry.
Especially with the BENTO heads and hands now out.
ALSO some tattoos might not work on a MESH head, so talk to the designer of the skins to see if they will work with you in case you do use a tattoo to the face.
As I've just taken a peek to see if they listed the new locations yet, and they aren't there.. I fear your hypothesis needs a little more "tweaking".

Thank you Luna, exactly the point I was trying to make. If they have an issue, send in a jira. I wasn't even bothering anyone. If they were in their own homes doing their own thing, I would not even be in this thread. Blessings, Ruby
