I can't get into support this morning so I'll ask you guys... you know everything! This morning a parcel of my groups land was sold. I thought the sale was flumoxed but see that the L$12,500 is sitting in my group instead of being put into my account, also the sale does not show on my accounts page and it doesn't look like the 1024 meters was added back to land I can buy without raising tier again. . First, how do I get the L$12,500 out of group and into my walking around money? Second, how can I get the 1024 meters added to land I can still buy? And third, shouldn't the sale show on my accounts page? Whew

When group-owned land is sold, the profits go into the group's account. Overnight the monies will be distributed evenly to all group members for whom the 'liabilities' ability is checked.

Edited to add: your tier donation is still with the group, you have to manually remove that by going into the group info / land tab and changing your land tier contribution.

Atashi is correct with the answer given about the money, and also you have to manually take the land tier back from the group so it becomes yours again.

How does one go about taking back tier from a group? The whole group land thing is a very scary process to me. Thanks to both you and Atashi for replying so quickly.

At the moment, the bigger issue should be that money sitting in your group's funds. If your group has any members other than yourself, they could possibly get a portion of that money! Check and be sure that nobody but you is set up for "accounting responsibilities".

Just went through this myself a few days ago...scared the pants off me!

To reclaim the tier look in the group and open the land tab. There you will see the amount of tier you donated. Just reduce the tier in the group by the amount you donated, it will then go back to your normal land tier

I checked that right away when there was no money added to my account and sent out a notice saying oops and give it back just for good measure! This whole group thing is a lot more complicated than it needs to be :/ (From my very blonde perspective).

Thanks for the help to everyone who replied ;*
