Public Spaces can be booked for private use by residents free of charge. Please contact support@jokaydiagrid.com for further information.
Rental Groups in Second Life:
Parcels are managed via Groups in Second Life. A group is created for you, and land deeded to it.
Group Land Management allows you to share management of the space with trusted colleagues, and also provides you with a basic social networking channel.
jokaydia Management avatars also remain as a member of your group, so basic assistance and maintenance of land parcels can be supported.
Sims on jokaydiaGRID
The jokaydiaGRID offers rentals of full regions (sims). Full sim owners must provide a Master Avatar name at signup time or management of their region.
Building @ jokaydia:
There is no limit on use or building styles, but all residents must build within their parcel boundaries except on prior negotation with jokaydia Management. Residents are also reminded to consider the surrounding environment in their build, and refrain from creating structures which limit or interfere with their virtual neighbours or other residents.
We ask that Second Life residents limit their builds to 300m – as this allows us to provide some (relatively) lag free, private space for classes above 300m. There are no height limits on building for jokaydiaGRID residents.
We also ask that residents keep their spaces open (free from ban lines) as much as possible to allow for ease of access for everyone on the estate. Spaces can be made private for special events or scheduled classes.
If you have objects or scripts which significantly negatively impact on the ability for the sim (Region) to operate in an efficient manner (such as causing time dilation) we will ask you to cease using the items. This also applies to objects which can cause regions to crash.
Rotating or flashing signs or structures that impact on your neighbours or the overall user experience at jokaydia in Second Life or jokaydiaGRID are not allowed.

Residents are welcome to run businesses and hold events and classes on jokaydia. We request notification (via IM or email) when people are holding events where they are inviting more than 15 attendees. This allows us to manage load, avatar limits etc.
Activities on jokaydia must fit in with the ethos of the jokaydian community. We reserve the right to ask residents to cease or cancel activities that are anti-social or impact on other residents.
