bel’s flexible prims

Our estates all operate on one simple principle: All creations matter.
I know, it’s a little vague… So let me expound a little.

Firstly, all of our residents pay the same rates for prims (objects.) No matter how many a resident chooses to use, we don’t reward the people who buy lots and lots by giving them discounts. It just doesn’t make sense to over-charge the resident who needs less. This is the idea behind our flat-rate prim rates. Blocks of 140 prims costs you L$1250 per month and you can buy as many blocks as you need for your creations!

Secondly, when counting the prims you use on your plot we sorta fudge the numbers a bit. Our counting systems have built-in buffers of twenty prims so you’ll never be locked out of rezzing a few extra objects. Temporary overages are never a problem. If you bring out a special object to show your friends and it puts you over your limit by a few hours it’s OK with us! We’ll just IM you if you are over your limit for too long. There’s no need for strict rules when it comes to our creativity here in Second Life.

We use these flexible and bendable agreements so that your creations and projects come first and the limits come second. We always try to maintain a feeling of fluidity so that your experiences here are the best they can be. breezy
As always, feel free to comment below if you have any thoughts on the matter. We’re pretty darn proud of our custom system

Using Your Rental Rock

Your plot’s Rental Rock will help you keep track of prims, handle your payments and keep you up to date with your lease time remaining! (hint hint!)

Start by finding your rock. It’s hidden somewhere in the landscape on the outer border of your plot. It’s helpful to turn on the Property Lines under the View menu.

Click the rock!

The standard blue drop-down menu is pretty self-explanatory but IM Lefty Belvedere if you have trouble.

New Rental Rocks!

All of you old-timers in the bel Niche will notice a few changes around the estate. Most important are the new rental rocks scattered throughout the bel Niche. These are our new

Rental Boxes!

We’ve all seen the big, ugly white boxes scattered throughout Second Life… Instead of tossing these ugly rental boxes around the landscape, we’ve taken those ugly boxes and hidden them into landscaping rocks! These new rocks will be your access point for rental account information. They will handle all payments, time-limits and prim counting automatically.

See this blog post for instructions on using your new rental rock.

If you have trouble finding your plot’s corresponding rock you can turn on the Property Lines view by clicking: View/ Property Lines up in the menu bar. Now that you can see your boundary lines, walk the perimeter until you see a small, 4mx4m square plot of land bordering yours. You should see a small rock nestled amongst some vegetation and flowers. Click it!
