They really need a transfer land drop down. I also don't understand the L$1 thing, why do people do this? Was there a time when L$1 was the only option to transfer land? L$0 forces you to name an avatar to sell the land to. Also they always seem to choose 1L$. Because they always choose 1L$, the client program should make 1L$ land transactions safe in the same way it makes 0L$ transactions safe (force you to choose a person) |

They simply just need to add a "Transfer to another resident" option, as well as a warning specifically about Automated Purchasing Agents who "can buy your land the instant you set it for sale".
Even still, as has been proven many times with just about every type of UI, people will STILL ignore every warning, click-through every confirmation, bypass every safeguard, and still set their land to sale for L$1 to anyone. It will get swooped, then they will come here to complain about it happening. At some point, all you can do is shake your head sadly and say "you've learned your lesson". |

2L$ would be the new 1L$
But the adjustment process might make people more aware. _____________________

Do we have any ability to get the land back? If they dont give it back you could try an AR for land bots or the "fraud - land" category I dont know if the fraud catagory technically covers it, but it might be "close enough" for a Linden to decide to act. Especially since the person probably generates a lot of abuse reports due to their shady business practices |
