mappa dataserver downtime

Our hosted server company had an issue with one of their server racks that caused all of the associated servers to crash.  Unfortunately our data server was on that rack.  Even more unfortunately, when the server came back online the MySQL services were trashed.  The result is that our SL data collection is temporarily offline while we try to recover the data and get things back up and running.  

UPDATE:

After several unsuccessful attempts at fixing the corrupt InnoDB tables, we had to give up and start MySQL from scratch.  We are in the process of re-uploading our backup, however the data is large (~100GB), and our internet tubes are small, so this is going to take awhile.  We hope to have things restored in a few days.  Apologies for the inconvenience.

 UPDATE #2:

All map functions should be operational now.  There are still some issues with the land search functions that we are working on.

land prices now stabilizing over 30 days
gridpulse_080706.jpgAfter a recent series of significant drops, posted parcel prices for second life land parcels seem to have stabilized around the L$/m2 level.  Reasons for the recent drop are unclear, but according to some Lindens possible factors include the recent opening of the Bay City area and additional auctioned land availability.
 
second life land prices down 30% in 30 days
gridpulse_080609.jpg the mappa novus grid pulse shows that average land prices have declined by 30% over the past 30 days, from 16.3 L$/m2 to 12.5 L$/m2 .  similar drops have been noticed in the past and have represented a good potential buying opportunity with periodic upswings allowing a sell off for profit.  the amount of this decline is more significant than past trends however, which may represent a tighter economy.  be sure to use our land search tool to find the best land bargains on the grid using your own criteria.
