From: Chris Norse Yes, the buffer is built back up. Thank everyone who donated. It is greatly appreciated by all. Hmmmm, so I went Premium for no reason? I got the 512 but haven't been able to add them to group yet. Damn, that could have paid for a lot of shoes.... .

From: Rioko Bamaisin I do nothing for the group but look cute. And you do an excellent job I must say. I got the note from Chris and didn't feel it was mandatory and I don't think the OP thought it was mandatory either. "CX"

. You can buy a small plot for a nursery. So when you have prim babies, you will have a place to keep them.

. There are many benefits to going Premium. - You can submit support tickets on a wider variety of topics, which will be ignored. - You can participate in the weekly Tuesday, "Where's My Stipend" threads. - You can feel superior to all the freeloading non-premium users (*waves to Brenda*).

My friend Elmer (may he rest in peace) had a line in his profile: "Premium member - premium bugs."

From: Brenda Connolly The land was all paid for through membership donations, and thanks to tier donations, there are no "property taxes". There are no imediate cash needs I believe, usually when an event is run sometimes members will donate, or Chris and I throw in Lindens. But as always, no donation of any type is required and all that are made are greatly appreciated. Since i am no longer Premium and have no tier to donate, you are all doing more for the group than I am. Part of the donations being the land itself.

From: Dekka Raymaker Out of interest, if a private island was in a group, could the owner donate 10% of his 65,536 m2? No, he would have to donate 59579sqm then the 10% would make it upto 65537sqm leaving the owner with 5957 pay tier and 512sqm bonus a total of 6467sqm to donate.

I need to buy a 2796 plot next week anyway which will up my tier..(Damn prims!!) So I will donate at least 512,maybe more depending on which tier I update mine or my alts...There's no more land left in my sim,so it should be safe from my clutches,lol. Now I can look cute,waitress,plan parties AND donate tier! Woohoo! I am a multitasking member...

Islands are billed differently than Mainland and owners don't actually have to be Premium members, so I don't believe this is correct. Going the other way, I used to live on an island which accepted tier in lieu of rent, but the tier went to the owner's mainland group...he couldn't use it for his island.

I want to say almost 1/4 of a sim,maybe a little bit less. If you are in world you can check on the land tab in the group info window.

I was merely curious. Everyone is welcome regardless of whether they are a member - nobody has to donate tier or anything. We get new people all the time and a lot come in from the forums here with questions they would rather ask in person. You also meet a lot of people who lurk here and don't post. That's always a lot of fun! We would love to have you there! Holler if you need a LM, but it's also in search...which is probably borked. But tp is probably borked. Drop by if you are in walking distance and walking isn't borked.
