Land Plot Question

A plot of land near mine is for sale at a reasonable price, and even though I don't need a bigger footprint I wouldn't mind having another hundred or so prims to play with.

My concern is this: the plot is diagonally across from my existing land, so the NE corner of my plot barely touches the SW corner of the new one. Is that enough of a border for me to join the plots and use the full sim allowance?

All plots of land owned by the same person/group in the same sim share their prim allocations... I.e. if you have 100 prims from plot A and 100 prims from plot B, and both are in the same sim, you have a total of 200 prims to distribute over both plots in whatever way you see fit.

they do not have to touch or have any contact at all for that. Further, two touching plots on the borders of two sims will *NOT* share tier at all, as tier is localized completely by sim.

Say what?:confused: As I understand it, tier is what you pay for your total mainland holdings, gridwide, as a monthly server rental fee. What, exactly, do you understand tier to be?

I was referring to the 'tier' of prims alloted to plots, not what you pay to LL, sorry for any confusion

Ah, that isn`t "tier", to me. That is [in my book] "prim allocation" :) --which is independant per sim. :)
