Breaking News: Linden Lab To Make Mainland Continent Satori Part of Bellisseria

 
 
Longtime residents will probably recognize the roughly triangular mainland continent of Satori, even if they forget it's name. Made up of plains, mountains, and shoreline, a number of residents have made it their home. But there's still plenty of abandoned land.
 
But late yesterday, Linden Lab announced Bellisseria would be annexing the land and making it into Linden Home space.
 
Due to the demand of Linden Homes, the limited paths of expansion by sea, and the amount of unclaimed mainland, the landmass known as Satori will be incorporated into Bellisseria. This means that those living there will need to sign up for Premium accounts and eventually get notices to take down their builds in order to receive their Linden Homes. 

The forums were soon filling up with responses from people with homes there not happy with the idea of being annexed. A Joe Greenland wrote, "This is our home, and we like things as they are." Jane Dane, a former tenant of renters on Satori, wrote, "It's not the neatest place in the world, but it has charm, and it would be a shame if it were to simply become just another part of the Linden Home continent. Besides, they'd have to move if they couldn't pay. Was that ever taken into consideration?"
 
But Don Linden would write, "We're so sure the people of Satori want to become Bellissarians, we're going ahead with the annexation." He insisted, "Bellessaria needs Satori, and Satori needs to be part of Bellisseria. We're going to make Second Life great again."

    1. SAME. The most tone-deaf thing he could possibly say.

  2. Well, that’s annoying. My home/farm/shop has been on Tweddle for a decade or more. And although I’m Premium, don’t necessarily want a cookie-cutter Linden home. Will have to read up on this and decide if this is a change I can accept, or not.
