From: Jesse Brearly I have personally seen her fully refund someone that was mistaken in their purchase. I have purchased (leased) land....
I clearly said "mistaken".....

From: Lindar Lehane As I keep trying to suggest, it does not matter one jot what any resident "believes" about whether these are sales or not, or what convoluted argument one side or the other can put forward to give semantic or philosophical support for their beliefs. Beliefs are a private matter, and Jesse's beliefs are his/her own.
The only thing that matters for us all is how these deals are classified by the Lindens, because that decides how they are treated in the game ie how listed etc. We have a ruling on this. It is over. Further argument is mere "off-topic" philosophical debate.
I can't understand this concentration on Nexus's $0 offering. If you could take a rental from him with no up-front charge, he did nothing worse than Anshe. It just exposed the farce of these misleading listings more clearly. I am a her, thanks  Thank you for finally realizing that my beliefs are mine, they are for no one to tell me they are wrong... however "wrong" you may feel they are.

Announcer: And now for something completely different.
Commentator: This morning, shortly after eleven o'clock, comedy struck this little house in Dibley. Sudden. Violent. Comedy.
(Swing back to the quest for the Holy Grail)
And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.
It's funny, isn't it? How your best friend can just blow up like that?

You're welcome, Jesse.  We just disagree about what Anshe is doing. If you check, you'll find that I stopped saying you were WRONG on the semantic thing a long time ago. Just that it is only the practical effect that matters. All honest people, uncrippled by egomania, believe what they put forward. Why else would they do it?

True  No offense ment to anyone on anything I said... we all just believe strongly in our views. I do agree, now that the Lindens have stated their wishes and intent... we should abide by those wishes until such time as they change them.

From: Jesse Brearly I clearly said "mistaken"..... Ahhh, I was thinking you were quoting something you had said to me. My apologies. Mistaken, misunderstood, are you going to play at semantics all night? Why is it, do you think, that this person was "mistaken"? Could it have been because the land was advertised in the SALES section at an incredibly nice price? I am really hoping you will answer this and not dodge again by playing jedi word games.
