With the new group features and "roles" I was wondering if it changed what happens when group land is sold? Used to be the "L's" were divided between all members in the group when the land sold. Does it still work that way or....

Only the people specified that pay liability are the ones who get the money divided among them? Or does it have to do with who contributes to the group land?

I havent found the answer regarding selling group land and who gets the money. Thanks

"Only the people specified that pay liability are the ones who get the money divided among them"

If you look in Members & Roles -> Abilities, then scroll all the way down to accounting (near the bottom), there is only one ability in there: "Pay group liabilities and receive group dividends". As the description states:

From: someone
Members in a Role with this Ability will automatically pay group liabilities and receive group dividends. This means they will receive a portion of group-owned land sales which are distributed daily, as well as contribute towards things like parcel listing fees.


One thing to note - anyone in the Owner role will always have this ability and thus will always get a portion of land sale L$ and pay a part of directory fees etc.
