Recently it has come to my attention that some residents of a few sims wish to change the ground textures of their sim. First, a little education: Every sim has four land elevation levels that cover the entire sim. I have asked Linden Lab if one can change the ground texture for an individual parcel, and the answer is no. If a ground texture is changed, it affects the entire sim or at least the quadrant on which it is changed. As of the date of this entry, that is the situation. At minimum, changing a ground texture affects 25% of a sim: Northwest, Northeast, Southwest and Southeast. To repeat, within those quadrants, one cannot customize ground textures per parcel. It is an all or nothing proposition.
When tenants rent with Ecstasy Realty, they expect to be treated with respect. I think, personally, a tenant has the right to his or her rented ground texture that they initially purchased. Therefore, unless 100% of tenants in a particular quadrant (NE, NW, SE, SW) want a ground texture changed, it will not be changed. I have considered this issue at length, and this is my final decision.
Tenants, please do not contact me on this issue because I will not respond to you. ALL communication must pass through Estate Managers, because 1) I trust them and 2) this is their job. If you cannot accept this policy, you are free to pursue other land rental options. I wish you and your family the best in 2008.
