Land & Public Works

For this idea, I'm suggesting that 3-4 regions of abandoned mainland are built out as forest on each mainland continent. A 'real life' example might be something like a national forest found in the US. Each continent could have it's own theme for the forest (jungle, swamp, redwood, beachy?, etc.), and have trails/plants/flora/fauna. Each forest would have a small rez zone (so you can rez a bike or a horse or something). PROS You don't need to make any new regions. Claim 3 to 4 regions in areas that are mostly abandoned. Every mainland continent has spots like this. You add instant real estate value to all of those parcels near the new forest that didn't have any value before - a 'protected Linden Forest view' on the mainland would be awesome. Volunteers could build it. The precedent has already been laid for volunteers to build large scale events/projects in association with the Mole and Linden teams. I am confident that a call for volunteers would yield an amazing a list of mainland loving builders. Cost to build it would just be whatever time is needed for the Linden / Mole to keep an eye on how the builder team is doing. CONS I have no idea how you'd 'sell those parcels' near the forest in a fair way, but I'm sure there are lessons learned from 'the old days' about how to release new land for people to purchase etc.

To whom this may concern at Linden Labs, I am reaching out to earnestly request your reconsideration of the covenant regarding "islands" above the mermaid grotto in Tiki Sims. I believe that allowing some flexibility in this area would not only enhance the immersive experience for our residents but also align with the spirit of creativity and community that Tiki Sims embodies. Here are several compelling points to consider: Mermaid Human Interaction : Mermaids often transition into human form and engage with their friends. By allowing terrain that facilitates these interactions, we remove the barriers imposed by the need for scuba gear or submersibles, making visits more enjoyable and accessible. Enhanced Privacy and Enjoyment : Introducing elements such as rocks, plants, and terrain mounds around the "porthole" creates much-needed privacy, enabling residents to enjoy the water without feeling exposed to onlookers. This enhancement greatly contributes to the overall tranquility and enjoyment of the area. Protecting Resident Privacy : The current restrictions can sometimes make residents feel as though they are living in a fishbowl. Providing options for strategic landscaping would grant tenants a sense of seclusion, which is paramount for their comfort. Visual Appeal : My recent exploration of the area yielded a diverse photographic collection showcasing the beauty of tiki homes enhanced by underwater grottos, half-spheres that seamlessly blend with the sim, and imaginative landscapes featuring islands and rock walls. These visuals speak to the potential for stunning environments that respect the established themes and boundaries of the sim. I fully understand the importance of maintaining parcel boundaries and adhering to the sim’s overarching theme, principles I am committed to honoring. My current design choices are made with care, ensuring they flow harmoniously with Tiki Sims' aesthetic. I strongly urge you to reconsider the existing rule regarding "islands." Encouraging creativity within appropriate limits could only strengthen our community. If residents remember to respect the boundaries and maintain the theme, I fail to see how this could present an issue. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to discuss this matter further with a member of Linden Lab. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to your favorable response. Warm regards, Siren Mysterious

An option to upgrade the prim allowance on a Homestead region, from say 5000 prims to 7500 prims or 10,000 prims. We have options on with upgrade option for a full region from 20,000 prims to 30,000 prims and paying extra for this and think Homesteads could do with an upgrade option also, I think this would help to get Homestead regions more popular and more online and gives people more usability for the space of the region.

Can we have the tiki interior doors added to the content pack? We have the matching doors in some of the other content packs and they are helpful for those of us who like to custom divide up our space.

Please complete the coastline of Heterocera continent by adding one water region to the west side of Tiger region. This will complete the perimeter coastline of Heterocera, enabling north/south boat travel on the continent's west side, as well as making a full loop of the continent possible for the first time. Request originally requested as a JIRA Request, [BUG-231433] (Accepted) see: https://github.com/secondlife/jira-archive/issues/8911

The rehab/revitalization of Linden Memorial Gardens of essential to the Second Life Community as we grieve and yet wish to honor our friends who have passed away.

The current process for Linden Homes selections allows for residents to receive the same parcel repeatedly even when there is an ample supply of available homes for the desired theme. This effectively renders the "5 selections per 24-hour" rule moot, and results in a very frustrating house hunting experience for residents. Please change the process so all available homes are rotated into the active queue on a regular basis. Thank you.

Rez zones are relatively limited for boats in bellisseria areas like the stilts and houseboats, where this has been improved in newer regions (like the new Tiki's). There are open waterway regions that are meant for sailing throughout bellisseria and I am curious why they do not have the default corner rez zones that the Blake Sea waterways do? Is it possible to add default rez zones in open waterway sims in Bellisseria?

There are a couple of swaths of blank or close to empty sims in the Corsica network. I feel like they could benefit from having a road go through them. The areas circled in the picture are the ones I mentioned.

The problem: The Gulf combat regions are a popular space for vehicle and other combat, but are stuck with the old, closed-source and impossible to extend VICE system. There is need to experiment with the new Combat 2 features but the regions are not damage enabled, blocking such. Proposal: If the regions were damage enabled, people could start working and retrofitting new and existing gear. To keep innocent residents safe, it would be important to disable the death action on those regions and set them to None. That way combat is an opt-in by attaching a meter/combat HUD the community would provide. I believe this would go hand in hand with the future promotion of combat 2 and give new and existing residents more places to have fun.
