I noticed for 40 tier I can have now 8704 in account settings.
Is this a mistake or new?
Anyone else notice this?

It says 8192 in tier usuage info but I have 8704 listed as total land I can use at 40 usd tier in my account page.
Just bit puzzled. When I joined we had the option of 512m2 for first land without being charged a additional fee.
Recently I traded my first land I got over 3 months ago to someone for a new lot elsewhere.
It must be the 8192+512m2 from first land.
Just confused LOL

When you pay for tier, that's in addition to the 512sqm tier you get for being a premium member. 512+8192 = 8704, as Ace said.

The 512sqm you get as being a premium member is separate from the 512sqm first land you got - you can sell your first land and you'll still have the 512sqm tier.

The tier usage figure you see is how much land you've actually got, in your case the 8192sqm you have.

Okay thank you.
I thought it went away when they stopped doing first land. LOL

Nope, see this in the blog post about first land ending:

From: Jack Linden
Effective immediately, the supply of cheap First Land parcels by Linden Lab will cease. Premium accounts will still be able to own up to 512m of land as part of their Premium membership package as they do now, the only change is that we will not be supplying the discounted parcels as we have done in the past. The website and knowledgebase will be amended to reflect this change shortly.


(Emphasis mine)
