The way I see it... LL is growing so fast that they will probably upgrade ALL their hardware this year to help keep lag at bay.

Wishful thinking, perhaps...

Not that I know of. However, if you're looking to buy Class 5 mainland, you might track the completed auctions to see which sims are the newest.

I'll second that. Also, keep in mind that just because the sim 'appears' new, it doesn't mean it is. Someone could buy the whole sim for example and so every lot would show a recent date of acquisition. The only safe way to know you're getting a Class 5 is to do as Annabelle said and track the auctions. Other than that, you can be assured that everything near (several sims each direction) the auctioned (purple on map) sims are also Class 5s.

There was a website, I can't find it now, that was supposed to report which sims shared your server, and what class of server you are running on. If I ever find the site again, I'll post it here.

Also, is there still a device in-world called the "Registrator-Tron"? It was supposed to give you sim info as you walked around the world...

from a previous SL blog post...

"Class 5 sims will first appear at sim2120.agni.lindenlab.com and above. "

You can pull down the Help menu and select About at anytime and see the info for the sim you are currently in. If the number is 2120 or above it should be Class 5.

Hope that helps... =)

I believe you're referring to the Sim Neighbours project by Max Case:

LL has said that this isn't true anymore. They changed the way the sims are numbered, so going off the sim number no longer works.

Don't have a vote for it but LL does read these posts. Comment (or start a vote) if you want.. With all the "land for sale class 5 no lag sim!" posts I see, I think it'd be a great idea for people to be able to know for sure what they're buying/renting.. Not that I think land merchants are all dishonest but I see parcels in my home sim advertised as "no lag!" and that just ain't right.. :)
