Linden Lab Eliminates First Land Program

Linden Lab has ended the real estate program known as “first land,” which allowed new premium users to buy property for L$1 per meter.

“Increasingly we have found that these cheap L$1 per meter parcels were not benefitting those people as intended. Because of the low price, they were being immediately sold, or bought via alts, purely for profit,” Jack Linden said in a blog post. “We have discussed many methods to ensure that First Land is used as intended but have decided that there is no way to do this without significantly impacting on resident freedoms.”
