  1. No, they don't prorate. Do you have a group that you can use to buy the land (using the "buy land for group") option? If you have a group own the land, you get a 10% land allowance bonus, which would help you stay at that lower price level.
  2. I've had a parcel on a canal in Horizons for a long time and never knew that. I guess no boats go past my house!
  3. I wonder if that behavior has something to do with the alt being a member of your land group?
  4. Just checked and there are still more than 50 available.
  5. Hi there, I've sent you an invitation to join the Bay City Alliance group.
  6. You will need to abandon the Linden home you currently have before you can claim another one with the same account. Once you've done that, you go to your Dashboard and click on "Get Your Home Now", and you will be able to claim a new home. I think that the only stilts available at the moment are the ones on land, though, and pier homes don't come up as often. You'll want to check that one is available before you give up your current home. You can check that land page with another account to see what styles can be claimed.
  7. I agree with Qie that a support ticket explaining the situation *might* work. If your friend was the only owner of the group, and there is no one left who can edit perms of group members, LL might decide to help (since the group is essentially in limbo now). If you are then given perms to edit group objects, and if those objects you mention are set to "share with group", then you should be good to go. I can't think of any other possible solution to the problem. Hope it works out for you!
  8. Not at all, that's why I said this isn't the first protest lol I was puzzled by the fuss back then, and I remain puzzled!
  9. It would probably be less frustrating if one doesn't take Second Life and minor details like theme names so seriously. This isn't the first time there has been protest about the "accuracy" of a theme's name. It seems odd to be to be quite that literal about this minor detail (which in this case, isn't inaccurate at all) in a world where we accept dragons and fairies without blinking an eye, a world where we can fly without need for aircraft, a world where we can change the size of our butts by clicking a slider. Anyway, naming aside, the theme is interesting, though I'm not sure what I think about the landscaping. It's certainly a change from other themes, which is cool, but it makes me feel dusty 😁
  10. Same! And as a side note, I don't think they allowed tickets when the ranch homes were very first released, so this isn't anything new.
  11. Years ago, I had my home on a parcel along one of the railroads in the Atoll, and I had a security orb on it. The orb didn't do anything awful to anyone, nor did it impede travel for other residents. It just controlled who could enter the parcel, because for some reason it was a popular spot for random folks to wander into my house and stand around like it was a rest stop. Anyway, one day I was home with a friend, just hanging out in the back yard, when I suddenly got an enraged IM from the person who owned the parcel next door. She was positively outraged that she was not able to just march onto my parcel and come back to where we were chilling so she could introduce herself. She berated me for being a bad neighbor, and then... ROTATED HER HOUSE SO THAT THE BACK OF IT FACED MY PARCEL. Funniest thing I ever saw in SL!
  12. To add to what Rowan asked, try wearing the group tag (assuming the parcel is set to a rental group).
  13. Ha! I wasn't in world when I posted earlier, so I couldn't look to see exactly where it was. Glad you found it!
  14. Check your Region settings. As Luna noted, if you have it set to allow parcel owners to override the region environment settings, you will still see whatever environment is set on those parcels if they are different from what your region environment is. You can change that setting to disallow parcel override, or go to each parcel and change them individually to show the region setting.
  15. I had the issue, contacted live chat, and a Linden came right over and fixed it.
  16. Price reduced! I sold my other parcels, so knocked 25% off on this one. Now available for L$12,600
  17. If the landlord in a private region has you "buy" the parcel, it's so you can have owner abilities on that parcel. The estate owner will still ultimately own the parcel and can reclaim it down the road. If they don't let you buy the parcel, your ability to do much with the parcel is restricted, and you'd have to contact them for even the simplest things like naming the parcel. (On Mainland, if you buy a parcel, it's yours, and that's that, so you're not going to see landlords selling a parcel to you as a renter. You rent OR own, not both.)
  18. DOUBLE PRIM parcel protected by water on three sides. Located adjacent to roadway, with a good view of two bridges (including the lovely Straits of Shermerville bridge). Easy access by car and boat (and plane, I suppose!) to Bay City, Shermerville/Blumfield/West Haven, and on into some of the older regions of Sansara. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Miramare/38/125/25 512 sq.m. 350 LI L$129,999
  19. Great location on Route 66, the main road going through Bay City to Nova Albion. This parcel is on a corner lot, with a Mole-built bowling alley directly across Route 66, a Linden park (with trolley stop) diagonally across, and a well-known Bay City hangout across the side road that runs alongside the parcel. Good visibility for a small shop or even a home, and a perfect place to hang out to watch various Bay City events like parades and rumbles (races), or to catch one of the trolleys as they pass by. It's in the west half of Bay City, which is G rated, so kid and family friendly! http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Bay%20City%20-%20Mashpee/48/36/25 512 sq.m. 350 LI L$120,000
  20. Protected waterway parcel on the Sandy Beach Trail in Tessentor (Gaeta I continent). Rez zone nearby with a fun Linden inner tube rezzer that lets you float across the Tessentor Canal directly in front of your new home (or catch a pod, if you prefer)! http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Tessentor/78/44/21 1,120 sq.m. L$16,800
  21. *SOLD* Perfect for sailing - Large water parcel on the Atoll, protected by boardwalks. Near the historic Moth Temple, with access to open water. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Iris/92/200/22 2,592 sq.m. L$38,880
  22. It usually shows the parcel yellow a day or so before the little price tag appears. In the reverse, once a parcel sells, the yellow box disappears before the price tag does.
  23. How long ago did you abandon the land? You will be billed each month for the highest amount of land you owned the previous month, even if you only owned it for one day (or less!). So, for example, if you abandoned that land on the first day of August, you'd still be billed for it for the month of August.
  24. I second the Bazar recommendation. The Stockholm bed is a favorite of mine (the Leah one looks pretty modern, too): https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/BAZARStockholm-Bed-ADULT/16788251 https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/BAZARLeah-Bedroom-ADULT/22877314
