Wonderland
The Covenant is a set of common sense rules that you have to read carefully and agree on before you buy your land. They are there to protect your investment and your privacy, making sure that you enjoy your Second Life as much as possible. If you have any questions or doubts, contact one of our agents.
A. General
- Wonderland is a privately operated estate, therefore you do not need a premium account to own land with us. However you do need to pay a tier directly to Wonderland. The tier is paid in-world through tier boxes.
- Before you buy read the Covenant and make sure that you agree on the rules.
- All sales are final and binding.
- When you buy land that is part of the Wonderland Estates but owned by somebody else we cannot be held responsible for the alterations this owner has made to the land. If we notice any alterations that are against the Covenant, we will revert the land to its original state.
- As soon as you buy land, either from Wonderland directly or from another owner, contact an agent to close the purchase. For your help we have created the Wonderland Community Group. Ask an agent for an invitation.
- The tier is not refundable and any negative or positive balance goes to the next owner. You have 5 days period of grace to pay the tier; after that, if we haven’t heard from you, your land will be reclaimed and no refund will be issued.
- If we have to reclaim the land in order to solve problems related to it, you’ll be able to get it back paying a fine.
- Sub renting and subletting is allowed only by written permission.
B. Building Limitations
- Residential sims are strictly residential and no commercial activity is allowed, so make sure you are buying the right parcel.
- Skyboxes and other flying objects must be placed above 250 meters.
- One main structure per plot.
- The buildings on your land must be at least 4m away from the borders of your parcel. If the border is underwater, the main building should be at least 4m away from the edge of the ground. For buildings 15m high, the distance should be 7.5m away from the border. For buildings 20m high, the distance should be 10m away from the border.
- The maximum height of the building cannot exceed the 15m. For buildings taller than that contact a Wonderland agent.
- The size of the house should be proportionate to the land and it cannot take up the whole lot.
- The style should blend in with the environment (i.e. you can’t build a medieval castle on a tropical island). As a rule of thumb, go for natural materials and avoid concrete. On themed sims keep in style with the theme. If you have any doubts, please contact us.
- Your land cannot be used as a sandbox or a construction site. If you wish to build your home yourself and the building lasts more than 5 days, consider building it above 250m and then put it down.
- In case you decide to live in a sky house, the land beneath it should be planted with trees and shrubs, so that it gives a pleasant look.
- The tierboxes should be visible and easily accessible at all times, so do not build over them.
- No major eyesores.
- No cubic structures.
C. Terraforming Limitations
- Terraforming is limited to +/-4m from the original layout, as is in most Estates and the mainland, but you cannot turn the water into ground.
- Terraform your land in keeping with the rest of the landscape and avoid creating steep hills at the borders with your neighboring land.
- The waterways should remain intact and free of obstacles, allowing people to pass through it in their boats. If you want to place a deck over the water, you may dig out part of the ground.
- You cannot alter the terraforming using prims.
- Use plants relevant to the theme of the sim or the landscaping (i.e. don’t use pines on a tropical island).
D. Behavior
- Respect your neighbors and the agents of Wonderland.
- You may limit the access to your land ONLY while you are INSIDE your property but you must REMOVE any restrictions when you leave. The same applies to any security system that restricts access.
- Above 350 meters you may use a security system at all times. In any case, access should be granted to Wonderland agents.
- Security systems should issue at least a 30 seconds warning before taking action.
- No high lag scripts or scripts that lower significantly the fps of the viewer.
- No rotating or flashing signs or structures. No shouting objects.
- No spy or listening devices.
- Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated.
E. Zoning
- Caribbean Breeze: Tropical island. No specific theme. Houses should blend in with the environment
- Costa del Mar : Tropical islands. No specific theme. Houses should blend in with the environment
- Porto Negro : Tropical islands. Sand. Tropical themed sim. Houses must be TROPICAL style (i.e. tiki).
Repeated violations of the Covenant, fail to pay the tier or rent, disturbing the peace of the residents and inappropriate conduct may result in your land being reclaimed without any refund.
The Covenant is subject to changes and we’ll do our best to notify you in time about major changes.
