Reading the SL Wiki |
(This is the web version of a notecard that was at "Gateway to the Mainland" in Second Life where I had put together resources about buying land. "Gateway" is now being moved.
Bitsy realizes she has a problem with her land in Celchu. Because of its shape there is not enough room to put a large structure. She needs more room, so decides to find out if she can buy some of the abandoned land behind her parcel.
The green shows the parcel shape. |
Bitsy watches some "How to Buy Abandoned Land" videos on YouTube, such as:
She also reads the SL Wiki article: https://community.secondlife.com/knowledgebase/english/abandoned-land-r1034/
Bitsy follows the link on the Wiki article and submits a support request. She follows the instructions. She explains why she needs additional land, and includes a snapshot showing the area she is interested in.
Photo submitted showing rough area she wants to buy. A few days later she sees that the land has been set to sale for her. |
The parcel outlines are much neater now. |
Pencil lines added to show new parcel boundaries. Note that small building in the first photo has been replaced with a gazebo in the second photo.
(Thank you, Whitney Linden, for setting up the new parcel!)
Bitsy buys the parcel. Her tier has now gone up to 13$L per month, since she has a Premium home and two 1024 parcels; however, she is hoping to start a group and share tier cost.
Note: The gadget shown on the poster cannot be used to buy land, it is just a freebie with one texture face changed to a media prim showing the SL Wiki page on abandoned land. (To do this edit object/Select face/Under texture tab under "full bright" change the 'materials' to 'Media' /then select 'Choose' and put in the URL. Thanks to Professor Myrddin for explaining this.)
