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.

The snowlands of the Sharp continent are lovely, but the road network (which is good in most of Sharp) is unfortunately not worth driving there because it doesn't connect to the rest of the continent. Is it possible to place a bridge across the 'empty' water sims to connect the road in Mizithra, via a bridge through Lappi, Danbo, and Tenshi, to Svecia please? Note that unfortunately, in Svecia, the connection will be challenging, as Tenshi comes in on the wrong side of the mountain! Ideally you'd want to move Bleu north of Danbo to make this connection very easily (so the connection would go Lappi, Danbo, Bleu (if it's north of Danbo)

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.

Hello, I have been operating in the skill gaming sector within Second Life for a long time. These games are based on player skill—such as attention, reflexes, and decision-making—rather than chance. As AI-powered avatars become more common in Second Life, they present new risks that require proactive consideration for skill gaming regions. While it is currently unclear whether AI bots are actively playing these games, the potential for them to do so already poses a significant concern. Specifically: AI could apply flawless strategies with perfect timing and no human error. This would artificially inflate scores and disrupt the balance of the game. Real players would face an unfair competitive disadvantage. Therefore, I respectfully request that Linden Lab consider the following measures: Define clear and explicit policies restricting AI bot usage within skill gaming areas. Require visible labeling or identification for AI-controlled avatars, to prevent them from posing as real players. Provide developers and region operators with tools to report or monitor AI bot behavior. Consider isolating skill gaming regions from potential AI interference, if technically feasible. AI certainly has beneficial aspects. It can be useful for new user onboarding or assistive tasks. However, fairness and trust are foundational to the skill gaming experience, and these spaces must be protected accordingly. Addressing this issue now will help prevent more serious problems in the future. Sincerely, CashinoGames SLSGO

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.

Why not a well regulated business park like a city in Bellisseria where all of these fabulous creators can move in and be in one place in to sell their wares, have restuarants, clubs, and other services, eventually phasing out the extremely cluttered and disorganized mainland?

I think that there should automatically appear a 1 sim navigable waterway around any land of the mainland. When mainland expands, the buffer 1 sim waterway should expand with it. This way, naviable waters are always available. If two lands join, elimating a waterway, it should appear in the closest edge to that lost one, making sure to provide a route around the lost waterway. Thanks!

Having seen the exhibit at the SL Birthday this year, it is clear the moles are capable of some wonderful art. I think it would be great if a new building set of road pieces and assorted decorations could be produced, using mesh and PBR with the aim of upgrading the appearance of Mainland roads. I think this combined with the eventual PBR Terrain rollout will send the Mainland well on it's way to a refreshed new look that everyone will be able to enjoy, and help the Mainland to exist in the present, rather than just the past.

Please consider adding golf courses to Bellisseria.

Nowadays it is so hard to find nice land at reasonable prices for anyone who just wants to run a small business or have their own private little place. I looked near water and land after land were Renters with outrageous prices made to lure in tenants to rent their lands. I tried in auctions, but any nice spot goes to those who can afford it. I finally found some abandoned land along a road with a few pretty homes around and an open view to the ocean and so I asked to purchase it. A little over 5000 sqm. Across the road in front of my new land was another abandoned land facing the ocean but not right on the water. The shape of the land would not have suited my purpose. After a week, someone else asked to purchase it. The built a huge elevated platform, and a house with several floors with high ceilings. And to make it worse they erected a huge prim with an image on it the width of their land. The house and image was right up against the road and totally blocked my view of the ocean. I would have had to raise a platform 125m to be free of the obstruction. A day later they put up their parcel for sale at $9.49 per sqm, a day after paying Linden only 1L per sqm for the abandoned land. In my opinion, anyone who buys abandoned land should not be allowed to sell it during the first 30 days or so, or they should have to return it to Linden if they change their mind. I feel it's about time Linden starts to take control of something that has gotten way out of control. I would love to just find a beautiful spot to build without the invasion of Real estate tycoons hogging up all the beautiful ocean view lands.
