    I'm looking to buy a new laptop and interested in your comment here. Although SL doesn't require RTX 3060 currently, wouldn't it be a good idea to get that at this point to future-proof the new laptop for the next several years? The 3050 is a few hundred pounds cheaper but I want to be sure I'm not cutting longevity with a false economy. What do you think?

    Hi @BrookeRangerwondering if this got resolved? I'm looking for a new laptop and as you said, this one looks good ... On paper ...

    Thank you both for your comments.

    Actually both the pieces advice I've had has been from two established land renters - about starting high and also about waiting and being patient. I'm not insisting on anything. I am new to this and appreciate your comments and will change the rental price and maybe other things if it doesn't rent soon. So do you think if I made it unfurnished I could actually charge more for the rent? How much?

    Thanks for your reply - I am a new landowner so still learning, hence my posting here for advice. I was advised elsewhere to start high and reduce as necessary so I was aware that I was aiming high. It's all good quality stuff - 100% mesh house with animated 100% mesh furniture and use of a private Intan dance ball and other extras in the house, which you wouldn't get in some crap box in the sky. I wasn't asking for an opinion on the price but how long I should leave it. However, I appreciate your comments and will reduce the rental price.

    Sooo my land and house has been set up for 6 weeks and apart from an abortive rent which lasted a few hours, no-one has rented it. I'm thinking of reducing the rental price. My question is: How long would you leave a rental up before reducing the price to attract renters? It's currently advertised on the MP and in several Facebook and in-world groups, as well as in my shops, and I have had at least two visitors to the land every week to look at it, but no takers as yet.

    Thanks for that! I got a friend of mine to add in the IM notification in the script for me, so hoping that sorts the problem next time.

    Hello all - well my parcel rented for the first time today. Somebody paid for a whole month, so I'm pleased. (Although having said how much she loved the place, she refunded the lease 30 mins later cos she found something better *sigh*) Thing is I got no notification from the rental box and only found out cos I had a visitor detector at the parcel and went to check. I think it only notifies me in local chat if I'm online. How do you all get notifications of payments for your rented parcels? What's the easiest way for me to set that up apart from constantly going there or logging into my transaction history to check?

    Ah yes, thank you - I have it set to show in search to advertise the rental, and yes I have an alt who is also an Owner of the group. I'll be taking it off show in search once it gets rented. Thanks for that!

    Hello again - I've noticed on my transaction history a payment regarding my group which the land is deeded to. Is this because the land is deeded or something else? Is it weekly or monthly? I don't think I understand group liability or tier charges properly ... https://gyazo.com/1265f6c322a6012d4ba4f22c5f81203c

    Thanks again both. To be clear, and as this is so important, the place to be unchecked in the group for general group members regarding Liabilities is under "Accounting: Pay group liabilities and receive group dividends"? Anywhere else?

    You've all been so helpful so far - may I ask some more questions while I continue to learn and set this up? I've deeded the parcel to the group - I got the warning that if the land is sold then the sale amount is divided between group members, and thought well I will just un-deed it to group before I sell it (if & whenever I sell it). However, now it's deeded to the group, I notice the deed buttons are greyed out. How do I reverse the process and become the sole owner in the future if I want to sell the land?

    I've tried to do this but cannot add myself. I've added my alt but selecting myself doesn't add myself to the list. Perhaps cos I am the land owner anyway (therefore perhaps I would always be allowed by default?) I've tried to deed the parcel to the group but get this message "[09:47] Second Life: Deeding parcel failed because the group does not have enough land credits." It's only a titchy 512m parcel - what do land credits mean and how do I fix it?

    Thanks everyone - a lot of helpful advice here Yeah I wouldn't be visiting the plot while they are renting, just thinking someone could ban me and stop paying, then what would I do. You answered that - thanks. Shall I just not allow deed? They'd only need that for a TV otherwise, I think. Anything I'm missing? Yup I was going to make tiered levels in the group for renters. What options should be on and which ones off? Yes I've got an alt with owner level, so that should be covered.
