As stated in a previous blog entry, all residents using PayPal to pay their tier will be switching to an “in-world” tier payment system using a tier box. Unfortunately, an unforeseen problem has arisen. In converting the PayPal payment to the Linden currency, we saw that we would have to raise the tier of some parcels considerably. Second Island prides itself in maintaining a good relationship with it’s residents and to avoid any unfortunate changes involving the residents using PayPal, we have decided to take the loss and not raise the tiers to cover the Lindex fees.
In other words, when Second Island first switched all residents over to the new tier machines, the residents would have had to pay more money to cover the cost of tier using the tier boxes. We don’t want to do that, especially because doing so would be raising the cost of some residents tier considerably.
To sum it up, new tier amounts will be added to the tier boxes of residents who were using PayPal. These amounts will be exactly equal to what you were paying through PayPal. We are sorry for the inconvenience and we hope this resolves any issues or problems you may have with the new tier payment system.
Thank you and have a wonderful weekend!
