Banned For A Week!

I managed to get myself suspended from SL for over a week so I have a lot to get caught up on.

What happened was - I wanted to buy another plot of land between the one I already owned and the beach so that nobody could build some monstrosity (or even worse an adfarm) and spoil my view. As I had only just opened a premium account I couldn't buy the lindens I needed from Linden Labs so bought them from another site which looked perfectly legit.

It wasn't, of course, and the lindens were fake - hence the suspension - so a cautionary tale, don't buy lindens anywhere other than from Linden Labs!
