Removing tier contribution while reclaiming group owned land :
Nice job on the wiki SuezC. It has very important info.
Although you clearly state "Sell the land to yourself for L$1. Be sure to specify you want to sell the land only to yourself." It's a really bad habit. Under no circumstances, should land be set to sell for $1, Use $0, because the interface will demand a specific buyer or the sale will not proceed.
That said, removing your contribution before reclaiming land is also a bad idea, particularily if you crash or your ISP or SL goes down. The correct proceedure is by setting the land to yourself for sale for $0, then select About Land, Buy Land and before selecting "Purchase", double check the box at the base of the window which indicates "Remove X square meters of contribution from group".
Hi Weedy,
This page comes right out of the LL Knowledge Base, verbatim, so if this is wrong info or bad advice, it's really more important for the correction to get made in the official KB than here.
Time to go to work.
