Same problem than #13 (Torin Golding) : when trying to convert a reservation to region, I get an error message, although I credited my USD balance with 1700 USD from paypal !!! Submitted 2 tickets in several days in the support section, no answer… Hey guys, I want to give you 1675 USD !!! Don’t you need my money ??

Message :
NoMethodError in Management#pay_for_region
undefined method `balance_due’ for nil:NilClass

Just wanted to comment on land ownership a bit since i found nowhere else where anyone cared. I purchased a premium account for someone because she wanted to have her own space - where she could learn to build, and have people visit and experience whatever else s/l had to offer,but now we realize the 512m parcel we thought we got with the premium account isnt even land… its just taxes we pay on the land we may or may not be able to buy from someone else… I dont mind the land system that is in place, i just think you should make it CLEAR that there is NO LAND available without dealing with land sharks and then paying the linden taxes for the priviledge of dealing with those land sharks. just like r/l i guess…

Hiya all,just thought all of you residents paying good real dollars to play this farce of a game would like to know how you can expect to be treated by the Linden clan should they cause something to happen that robbed you of your land,finances or Inventory.
In Dec of last year Lindens did another of their famous upgrades,and as a result my partner Victoria Jacques lost nearly her entire inventory ..a folder that contained 27 months of purchases..everything she owned except her clothes and what we had on the ground.
Vic reported this loss straight away and received the customary Linden customer service response..deathly silence.
Over the past 4 months she has chased and chased them to find her lost inventory (i must add at this point that Lindens accepted it was a problem glitch caused by them)
Finally in frustration,and many broken promises of “we will investigate and get back to you” Vic rang Michael Linden in person..giving him full details of times dates and people spoken to.
Once again..the customary reponse..”will get back to you”..which of course he never did.
Finally i spoke with Robin Linden on Vics behalf,and i must commend her for at least getting back to me and finally getting something to happen.
Vic received a note from Michael Linden appologising for all the problems caused,and for her losing her inventory,and sent her a most generous compensation of 3000L..YES FOLKS,THATS RIGHT 3000L FOR THE LOSS OF 27 MONTHS OF INVENTORY.
Vic rang Michael and asked for an explanation of how he arrived at that value..his reply was that is the maximum Lindens will pay as reimbursment for any loss caused by them,and infact are under no obligation to pay anything.
He then went on to imply that Vic could be trying to “defraud” poor old Lindens by exagerating the extent of her losses,and if not could have purchased all those items and “given them away”..he then clutched at another straw and said because she had taken 3 months to report it she could be trying to take advantage of them.
Heyyy Michael..if you ever read these bloggs,and i doubt you care enough to do so..Never at any stage has Vic asked you or anyone else for financial compensation..she just wants her inventory back that was lost by negligence and incompetence on behalf of Lindens.
I sent back the 3000L .and was most pleased to see that Lindens kept it and gave me the curtesy of ..yes folks you guessed it..NO REPLY.
Please use the 3000L to put a down payment on a concience,and apart from Robin Linden perhaps you could use it for learning some people skills or a dictionary explaining the meaning of customer service.
The way Victoria has been treated is shameful,i just hope that noone else ever has to be confronted with Lindens arrogance,indifference,negligence and refusal to accept any responsibilty for their incompetance.
No wonder fully paid up members only account for 15% of the worlds population,there will be even less when my next subs are due.
Smiles,thanks all for having the patience to let me vent my spleen..thats if they let this through lol..Kind regards Kush.

(footnote)..since writing this i was advised that philip linden is a fair and honourable man,so sent him the complete history of what happened..yep folks ..have been deafened by the silence of his reply.

great…now how about fixing the bug that is obviously in the division of land…and the level of your customer service

I purchased a parcel today..a 1024 for 12300 lindens and divided it for resale….I split it into two 512 parcels…and then went to put them both up for sale for 7150 each…I definitely had a green line down the center of my parcel…dividing it into two parcels…I put one up for sale for 7150, and the second that I clicked the confirmation for putting it up for sale…the green line disappeard…the parcels reverted into a single parcel of 1024 again, and a landbot swooped it in half a second A landbot run by Zor Zeddmore, of course both the bot and Zor ignore my request to make things right…so I am out 5150 lindens…and so I called the concierge support, to fix this obvious problem…

I got hold of Guy Linden, and he came to the parcel and did some sort of “examination” while I waited..then told me he could do NOTHING. There is obviously an undocumented bug in the system…I am hardly in the habit of buying land and selling it for much less than I buy it for…and I sure saw the green line on the parcel.

So…basically, the lindens are supporting the “right” of the landbots to rip us off, because of a bug in THEIR systems????…I want everyone to know…buy land at your own risk in this game…you have a better chance keeping your money if you just flush it…

How about a guy who wants to force low prices by building a huge
wall around your land like Marth Rocco.
I would prefer to have an honest business in sl, but for some reason
always evil shows up…. This is so fair play Marth.
Love, Linda

Anyone know if there is going to be any first land sometime….anytime?

By: Ronor Beck

Ronor Beck — Wed, 07 Mar 2007 15:51:42 +0000

The topic is Land Sales, right?
If so, I want to add my voice to Misterbear and Raina Guru by asking WHERE THE HECK IS FIRST LAND???

As a new person to SL (not a newbie) I feel totally duped by the false promise of something that apparently hasn’t been around for ages.

I canceled the reservation and then bought the land from the front page of the Land Store. That was the only way I could do it. Every attempt I have made over these last two weeks or so to get some resolution from LL has come to nothing.
