You'll be happy to know that I've sold almost all of my microparcels, and at a nice profit. Thank you for your concern. 😁

Its late, I'm tired

The land is for sale, so regardless of what is on the sign, its ad farming and clearly not conforming to the rules, and so yes, anyone is entitled to AR it.

Reported. nice to see one neighbor isn't taking it lying down though.

au contraire, I got a giant BLM sign removed from across the road from my club 😁

Defo report the sign, if you don't want to report it, send me the slurl and I'll report it 😁

I went to look at submitting a support ticket, but there didn't seem to be a category to cover forum issues.

Yes its frustrating getting an answer that isn't an answer at all. You read the reply and think, yes, obviously I violated community standards but what exactly did I do? Oh well. 😬

Re-reading the description of the use of the sub forum, I can see why my thread was deleted, but still, as a hypothetical, how does one contact LL about a forum issue?

How would one go about contacting Linden Lab to ask about why a forum thread was deleted? Looking at "submit a ticket" there doesn't seem to be an option for Forum questions. Any thoughts, anyone?

Upon reading the entire section on land cutting, specifically the part that says LL can move any parcel less than 128 sq m if it impacts the enjoyment of second life of the owner of a significantly larger parcel, I realize that any or all of my ad signs, even if they are entirely within the rules, can be removed, and my 16 sq m parcel moved from roadfront to someplace else on the sim, I see no other option than to divest myself of all my micro parcels as quickly as possible. From the above linked wiki: ------------------ Linden reserves the right to make parcel alternations as necessary to ensure residents’ enjoyment of Second Life. We want to keep Second Life beautiful too. We therefore may, in our sole discretion, move any parcel of land that is smaller than or equal to 128 sqm where such land is interfering with the enjoyment of a significantly larger parcel of land or region. -----------------

I bought the land for 160$ L, I sold all 3 parts for $1160 L total last night. No bad for a rookie land flipper. The person that bought the parcels rejoined them and put an advertising kiosk on it. I'm happy, the buyer is happy. 😁

I bought a 1024 roadside parcel a couple of months ago for about $900 L. There was a 64 sq m roadside parcel partially in front of it, so I imed the owner asking if he would sell it to me, and instead he gave it to me. There is lots of roadside available, you just have to search for a reasonably priced one, and sometimes wait for one to show up.

That is the answer to his problem them. All he has to do is subdivide the part of his parcel that the raffle board sits on, say 20 m by 20 m, and block teleporting to that parcel. Anyone wanting to use the board has to walk in or cam in, but either way, they won't be logging in right in front of the board.

From personal experience last night, I logged out at one point on a sim and when I logged back in I was outside the main parcel. So yes, you can prevent last location login apparently. This is from the about land / options

Yes it does

Yep, if you log in to last location, their land controls won't alter that. Its kinda funny sometimes when you log out in someone's bed. 😁

I hate to double reply but I can be used as an example of land shaving. I had a 4096 on the same sim as my club. Over time I cut it down to a 1024, both to buy my Trump parcels, and because I was losing a tier donation. The only reason I kept the 1024 was to have spare prims for my club. Except for one part I listed and sold in five minutes to a flipper, the rest was picked up by flippers putting in tickets to LL.

Actually, I've bought (rented) land on private estates that allow subdividing parcels and re-selling them. Of course your name is still on the rental box for the full parcel The covenant warns people not to buy a parcel if it is being sold by anyone other than the estate owner. So, yes, I could subdivide a parcel, sell it to a friend and they would have all the rights and powers I had over the whole undivided parcel. Here is an example from an estate I rented from all the time.

People complained about my hornet swarm pushing people to the property edge. I wonder if I should enable life and script the hornets to do damage, so that after so many "stings" you die and are sent home. Talk about realism 😆

If not in this thread then in another one I said if a 16 sq m came up for sale cheap in front of someones house, they should cut off and abandon 16 sq m in the back. I know I would. But on the other hand, maybe they don't know how to cut a parcel, or they simply feel entitled to their unrestricted view as is and will AR anything that messes up their view. But, if they don't want to buy it cheap, I will. 😁

It actually asked a legitimate question.. where do micro parcels come from? If you think the whole thread is a troll, I'm sure you already reported it. I think we have gotten all we can from the thread, so I'll take my leave. Have a nice day Mr. Niangao

Qui, the comment I made about $100 L not being too much to maintain their view was in reference to the land when I found it. I've bought parcels cheaper than that that were right in front of someone's home. Why would someone not buy a 16 sq m parcel that has the potential to ruin their view when it was on sale for only 25 or 50 L? So, I buy it knowing I can turn a profit on it, then I'm called the heavy for doing it. I'm really not responsible for others failing to act to protect the integrity of their immediate environment. I guess they would rather wait and AR any sign that shows up on the parcel after its been bought. AR's a free after all 😁 As usual, some people expect total control over their own property, but also demand control of the land around them.

Kidnapping is a criminal act. I'm not breaking any rules.
