Mainland Destination Tier Bonus
BJoyful Resident
Feature Request for a Mainland Destination Bonus?
As a Linden already comes to visit and approve all Destinations, what if we could receive a Tier Donation Bonus upon approval of a Mainland Destination? There are so many wonderful Mainland Builders who make amazing places and Destinations... imagine what they could do with a Tier donation!
I believe it would encourage some reclamation of Abandoned Land for more Destinations.
Perhaps a tier donation could come in stages, based on the number of Visitors or length of time the Destination exists? Also a Linden would be in the Land Group in case something drastic happens to the Owner... perhaps the Lindens could ask for a Role with any necessary powers to delegate/sell/the Land.
Is there something I've not thought of that would inhibit this? What do you think?

This is a return to the damned "Voting Kiosks" stupidity that LL abandoned back in what, 2009?
LL to BRIBE owners of public venues based on how many illegal traffic-scam AFK un-registered alt-bots they misuse.
I can already hear the Bot-Haters writing another forum rant post to complain that the destinations in the Popular category are filled with illegal traffic-scam AFK un-registered alt-bots, and demanding that LL do something about the NEW problem caused by YET ANOTHER poorly thought out "Idea of Stupidity" from the Cult of Toxic Positivity.

I love the spirit of the idea, BJoyful!
I do have questions about what it would look like in practice. I have a destination for which I am the sole owner. Its success is due in large part to a friend who designed and landscaped it for me; the broader community that it resides in, and partnerships with organizations across the grid. I'd feel a little weird accepting a tier bonus while my stakeholders and contributors receive nothing?
I also have a destination that represents 30 individual landowners. Would all 30 get a tier bonus? And if we add more landowners, would they also get a bonus? Would landowners who leave our community lose their tier bonus? Who would keep track of all of this?
Again, love the idea - I'm just curious about how it would work in practice.

Zoe Foodiboo I would imagine the tier bonus could be given to the Land Group directly… on the “Zoe’s Destination Group” Profile go to Land and L$ tab and make a donation of tier right there in the Your Contribution box. This would allow the Group to use the donation in the manner desired, whether by adding more land to expand the entire m2 with more m2 for an addition to the Destination or by allowing the rest of the tier donors in the Group to reduce their own tier fees or tier donation so they can acquire more land or reduce their own tier fees. There could be other ways also, which I’m unaware of or not tried yet.
