Hi, On the 2007 04 01 I bought a 512sqm parcel on the mainland and by doing so I upgraded my account to Premium. When estimating land use fees I get those values : From: someone
0 - 512 = 0
512 - 1024 = 5
1024 - 1536 = 8
1536 - 2560 = 15
2560 - 4608 = 25
4608 - 8704 = 40
8704 - 16896 = 75
16896 - 33280 = 125
33280 - 66048 = 195
which are different from the values from the table* visible bellow the comparison tool and reproduced here : From: someone
0 - 512 = 5
512 - 1024 = 8
1024 - 2048 = 15
2048 - 4096 = 25
4096 - 8192 = 40
8192 - 16384 = 75
16384 - 32768 = 125
32768 - 65536 = 195
So for the same price I always have 512sqm more. Mainland can only be owned by Premium accounts. Do all Premium accounts have that free 512sqm ? If yes who is that table* meant for ? PS : I'm developing something that involves tier calculations and I would like to know what to rely on.

Premium accounts get thier first 512 of tier free.
The mian table at the bottom is what it costs for tier, disregarding your free 512. Essentially what it would cost you to have that much more tier.

Frankly, I've never understood why they even list 512sq as $5, and so on and so forth, seeing as it's free and always has been (hasn't it?)

If you own 1024m2, you pay $5. You pay $5 for owning 512m2 in excess of your free allotment.

From: Kujila Maltz Frankly, I've never understood why they even list 512sq as $5, and so on and so forth, seeing as it's free and always has been (hasn't it?) The price list on the LL site is based on the amount of extra tier you have - so if you have a Premium membership and own 1024sqm, that means you have 512sqm of "extra" tier, costing you US$5. They do it that way because there are still some older or exceptional users around with accounts with different amounts of base free land. For example, lifetime users have a base 4096sqm (no, you can't buy a lifetime membership now - it was a "founder's club" type deal several years ago); some users from the transition period when free accounts were being introduced can own mainland without a Premium account, but don't get the free 512; and some users who have worked on builds for Linden Labs, or builds that have been sponsored as highly beneficial (infohubs, the Ivory Tower, etc) have the land supporting those builds tiered for free. |
