The arbor project

I don't understand this. How does it work? It would be cool to get the "ad cutters" out of business, but how do they manage to do it? And how do the legitimate land owners on adjacent parcels get to join the reclaimed parcels with their land???

From what best I can tell they keep the ad-cutters IN BUSINESS by paying them off.

The Neville Chamberlain School of Business?

Brenda, the stuff you write always makes my day...

Imagined Neville standing by an aeroplane waving a piece of paper.. just before the start of ww2..

but then, recently ,ive been finding that one cant do anything anymore, without first signing ones name on a piece of paper...I think there should be a group in SL called POPC

popsy.. the Piece Of Paper Clutchers...

I do see they now have a ban list with many well-known names on it. I am not sure if that will do any good: I don't think banning the ad-cutters from my little parties will scare them out of their business model.

I joined the Arbor Project after my ex-neighbour donated her land to them and they made a nice little infohub there. In principle the Arbor Project seems a good idea, but it does seem sometimes that some members exhibit a wargaming mentality, like they relish the battle with the ad-cutters! Also it seems that Arbor was infiltrated by one notorious ad-cutter.

I recently sold my land and have moved just down the road. I offered the land next to Arbor's infohub to them at a cheap price but received no reply. So I sold it on the open market and the purchaser has put ban lines all round it. Missed opportunity for Arbor Project.

But Arbor Project is a good idea all in all.

The arbor project accepts land that people don't want to pay tier for, but don't want to become adland. They give plots they own to people who can rejoin them to real and larger plots.

The arbor project does not buy adland. It's a good service run by good guys.
