Any idea what ticket numbers? Last I talked to someone theirs was 4460.

And as far as I have heard Minerva might be the only one working on them, even though Live Help told me there were 3 or 4

Talked to Live Help, no answers at all on ticket numbers. Seems it would be a simple matter for Concierge to have an update periodically, wouldnt it?

Reopen the ticket, challenge it. Did they say why? And what ticket number are you?

I forgot to mention yesterday that there were several Lindens on one of my mainland parcels at about the same time that Minerva was hovering over the parcel on Zindra that I ended up getting, which was just about the same time that my ticket went WIP. A later check of the visitor logs on all of my parcels shows that a Linden visited several, but not all of my adult content parcels.

When I saw the three of them at one parcel, I did try to engage them in chat, but got no response at all. I hung around a few minutes, then heard that Minerva was hovering over the parcel I wanted, so I headed to Zindra.

There were really no questions asked about my content, and I got a full meter to meter swap. My adult content consists of an adult product vendor of my own creation, plus reseller vendors of other adult products, as well as publicly available sex pose balls and statues, and a peep show at one location.

The three Lindens were actually hanging out near the peep show, which was unoccupied at the moment. I seriously considered hopping into the booth to see if I could earn a little extra scratch from them. lol

What was the reason? Don't close your ticket. Appeal it. They have made mistakes with others and changed their minds.

I have reopened the ticket.. the responce was what seems to be their normal form letter.

From: someone

Hello, Johnnie:

Thank you for your interest in relocating your land to Zindra.

It appears that your parcel does not contain commercialized adult content or services. Therefore, your content does not qualify for the first wave of migration to our new Adult-Only continent.

Once the first wave of migration is complete, we will open land sales to other Residents who wish to live on Zindra. At that time, you may purchase land on Zindra through the Auction System in the Land Portal or you can buy land from other Residents.

For more information, please see the associated articles in our Knowledge Base on maturity ratings or the migration to Zindra.

Thank you for your understanding!

Sincerely,

Minerva

best guess is my shop is a log cabin... they popped in and saw what looks to be a house and left... or they did not look closely at what the tattoos I make say. (and ignored all the sex balls and etc..)

Yeah, the big sign on the front that says "Johhnie's Slut Shack" wouldn't give them cause to look more closely. :rolleyes:

Tell her you don't understand why a slut shack isn't bloody adult.

FFS I have sympathy with their customer relations issues and how much work they've put upon themselves but the way they weasel out of giving swaps to people who should get them and allow land flippers to game the system is a disgrace.

Ah yes. Perhaps if you hire a slut to proposition the Linden's when they come back out on your appeal, that would do the trick.

Seriously, there are people who will be making money off of their free swap simply by selling off their double prim prime Zindra parcels as soon as they can in order to avoid double tier. Then they will go right back to selling their now worthless mature land to neighbors who have been waiting two or more years to buy that precious parcel that sits right in the middle of their current land. But of course land specculation is not against the rules now is it?

My hope is that the Linden's continue to print up more Zindra land all through the auction process so that the plan backfires on those who are trying to just make a quick buck and they end up having to sell at a loss and even pay double tier for a time. I certainly wouldn't shed a tear. They did get free land afterall.

I appologize for my cynicism.

Ticket #: 4051-6484480 29/6/2009 10:11 AM PDT

I never received a e-mail but it seems as if they gave me the land on July 7th ( I did not notice that the 'Date Updated' date had changed from July 3rd to July 7th). Today I decided to click the link of my ticket and saw this:

From: Linden Lab Support


Action Date 10/7/2009 10:11 PM PDT

Hello Lias,

The parcel you requested within Zindra is available.

It is located here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Yedboro/215/219/29

We have set the parcel for sale to you for L$0. You have two weeks to claim the new parcel and move your adult content to the new location. Your monthly land fees will not be affected by owning these two parcels simultaneously during this short period.

After you have moved, you may want to leave a landmark giver on your old parcel to help people find you in Zindra. There's a template landmark giver called "Box with Landmark Kiosk" in the library section of your Inventory. Feel free to customize it with your own textures, but please do not use Adult textures on it, as it will reside in a non-Adult region.

After the two-week grace period, we'll return everything left on your old parcel (aside from the landmark giver, of course) and reclaim it.

For additional tips and best practices on making the move, please take a look at our tips for moving in the Knowledge Base

Welcome to Zindra, and enjoy your new land!

Sincerely,
Colton Linden

We are talkin' about a 2048M corner road parcel - quite lovely. Moving my restaurant now. I will add info to slapt.me wiki also.

Exactly why I have no sympathy. It means they really are a bunch of idiots, and can't properly service their product, in which case they should close up or sell it to someone who can, or this is nothing but a scam and being done deliberately to favor a select group of residents. But you are right in that it is a disgrace in any case.

Great news :) and thanks for updating the slapt.me wiki, don't forget we have the forums on the main site for event advertising, chatting with no naughty word censoring etc. :) Its a separate sign up though from the wiki.

Good luck with the rebuilding :)

How old is that quote? About a week before the tickets opened they changed their minds on a lot of things.

i.e.

1. only parcel that have smut get to move
2. no upgrading of size

and there were a couple of others that I can't remember off hand.


We had a small number of parcels in two adjoining sims that we all had linked under the same land description and owned by our group, and they gave us a large parcel of the *combined* size even though some of those were prim land without anything adult except the description. granted they showed up under search as a single business, so maybe that is why it worked out.

Of course, our visitor counter never showed a linden on the property either, so maybe it was a mistake on their part

Not that I'm complaining, mind you! :)

10:12 ticket 4051-6484485 WIP, pending the other tickets open at the time, they combined my two tickets together since they had to be looked at as one, but seperated in information on them. Looking good for nice choices
1 ... 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 ... 120
