I have a friend just joined and is stuck on Help Island. She wants to know how she can get to mainland. I cannot remember back that far. Anyone help ?

If you are online with her, just send her a tp. Or she can do a mapsearch and tp to a mainland sim. Send her a landmark or the name of a sim to look up.

Have her type the name of a mainland sim into search on the map. Try Liome or Carlisle, both mainland sims.

some of the OI seem to block map usage now to just tp to main grid without going through sillines first... don't ask me how, but that's what my sister told me on getting her account from Linden OI, said it wouldn't show the names of valid locations

That sucks, I wonder if a places search would still work?

How do you pronounce that name? Is it "LIE-ome", or "Lie-OM-ee", or "Lee-OME", or "Lee-OM-ay"?

Practice, practice, Practice.

No really, they can be TPed off of the by a willing party. I'd suggest finishing out the orientation, if they haven't already.

New residents (and mentors who tp instead of tp'ing home) will set their home to the first parcel they land on after HI or OI.

Unless you want that person to always log back on your land, give them a landmark to a WA and tp them away from there :).

How I got off Help Island was I did a search, clicked the Popular Places tab, and wound up at Hippie Pay Island.

I don't understand what the problem is. They can just click on the Exit sign at either OI or HI.
They don't have to finish the folderol. They will probably wind up at Korea II.

When all else fails you can try swimming across to the mainland.
