View down the sloped road:

This neat little parcel sits at the top of one of the steepest roads I've seen in SL, on the well-known Wellington Road in Jeogeot Continent. Located not terribly far from Jeogeot Gulf, this hilltop parcel has a rez zone right in front, and very nice views. If you like pods, they float by often, and if you hate pods, I have to say that these are the zippiest ones I've seen, so at least they go by fast! Keep decor or return it; it's up to you! 560 sq m, 192 LI, $,4,200. Come have a look, and bring your skateboard! http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Noguri/17/71/100

To buy the land for the group, donate your 1024 allowance to the group (I find this to be the easiest way to do it). The group will then be able to buy 1024 sq m + 10% bonus = 1,120 sq m. When you find a parcel that you are able to buy with that amount of land allowance, you will need to buy it *for the group*. Read this article for more explanation of group land, buying group land, etc. Also, look at the sidebar on the right side of that page to see if any of the languages there work better for you than English does.

SOLD!

If you own the parcel and just want part of it to be used by the public as a sandbox, you can subdivide the parcel then set the "sandbox" portion so everyone can rez, with autoreturn set at whatever time you want (I'd say to set it to return items a few times per day, but some go longer than that).

Come check out this cute rural home on a quiet dirt road in Rethymno! Items stay for as long as you want them; just send back any or all of them at your convenience. 1024 sq.m., 351 LI, L$10,000 Satori continent http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Rethymno/156/67/92

That one is right next door to the house I caught the very first night that Bellisseria opened. A friend of mine caught the house that you now have. We stayed there for quite a while, too.

If you won an auction and the land didn't get assigned to you, contact Support.

Leave Mainland alone. If you want a home with a covenant, there are plenty of places to find one.

If you want a "useful" reply, you might want to state what OS you are asking about.

What's worse is that those of us NOT in the group received no notice of a change at all.

On Mainland, you will find some of everything, some of it organized neighborhoods but most of it not. If you are open to the idea of renting instead of using your premium land allowance, you might be happier renting on a private estate. Those tend to have covenants to keep things looking nice, many have residential neighborhoods like you are wanting, and many also offer more prims than you will get on Mainland. I won't go into all the pros and cons here (I have place on both Mainland and on private estates, and each have advantages), but take a look at some rental estates like Gooseberry or Soul2Soul.

To be totally accurate, you canNOT join parcels in Horizons. However one can share prims between the parcels anyway, as long as they are all in the same region (as yours are), and owned by the same owner.

This is the method I use. Very easy to do using FS's area search, and very thorough.

I've just sent you a group invitation. Bay City Alliance meetings are every Sunday at the Community Center in Daley Bay. The time alternates between 1 PM SLT and 4 PM SLT. The Rumbles (vehicle races) are held on Thursdays at 7 PM SLT, and the type of vehicle that will be raced changes each week. Group notices go out for meetings and Rumbles, so if you join the group, you'll get all the details.

Veering totally off topic, but that's cool that you know Rosie. She's one of my best pals there. 🥰

As far as I know, this is not the case, at least as far as CDS is concerned. People come and go over the years, but I'm not aware of any who have left specifically in order to move to Bellisseria. (I do know that some of us have homes in both!)

100%. I use it often when I wind up in a store or shopping event that for some stupid reason has a landing point set so that you can't TP to whatever display you want to see. If I can find something nearby to sit on, and there usually is something, then I can get to where I want to be, buy what I want, and get out quickly without having to fight lag and high complexity mesh booties. I think the benefits far outweigh any security concerns, especially when we do have orbs and other solutions available to address unwelcome "guests".

If I understand the question, I believe the group could own 2,252 sq m without being bumped up to the next tier level. That would be your 1,024 for Premium plus 1,024 that you pay $7/month for, which is 2,048, plus 10% of that, which is 204 (total 2,252).

I guess you haven't attended any of the weekly Bay City Alliance meetings? All are welcome. EDIT: Also, the weekly vehicle Rumbles happen each Thursday night. Again, all are welcome!

That *is* sad. When this area was a topic of conversation before, I paid another visit to the region, and I'm glad I did. I expect the robot will go before too long, too. People wonder why some of us push back against the "let's update all the Mainland and make it new and shiny" bunch. This destruction of SL history is an example of why I do it.

Oh, interesting. It's not a section I read, but I did glance there before commenting here, and I saw people promoting their own venues.
