Caledon

Caledon 187,187,23 – It is like stepping into the 19th Century, complete with a trolley that will give you a tour of the sim. So put on your best bib and tucker and TP into another world.From their land covenant (a bit long, but an interesting read nonetheless…

Welcome to the Independent State of Caledon!  

Visitor’s introduction: 

Caledon is a 19th century Steampunk Victorian nation-state!

A small, windswept isle at a temperate latitude with wild creatures, country estate life, and sights and sounds that were common well over 100 years ago.

- 19th century period clothing, politeness, and activities are smiled upon, but “just being yourself” is more than good enough.  

- Though most sims are rated Mature, common decency and classy behaviour are expected and required in public areas.

- We have a very *real* society here.  Everything from humble shopkeepers, inventors, clothiers, writers, explorers, titled gentry, doctors, tavern keepers… you name it!  As fascinating as everyone else is, the biggest discovery might be who you become.

- Caledon has been blessed by its residents: deservedly famous artisans, the incredible shopping, the landmark Caledon Trolley.  All of this added up to some of the most desirable addresses on the grid – not for being posh, but loveliness and warmth.  We regularly host incredible seasonal and cultural events – consider yourself invited!

- New to the grid?  Pop by our nation’s capital (Victoria City) to find many free items there offered up by generous clothiers, inventors and just plain nice people.  You’ll fit right in, and please consider yourself a guest of honour.  Interested in citizenship?  Drop Desmond Shang a notecard (Inventory button, Create menu, Notecard) – drop it to my profile in Search People and I’ll add you to our group – you will be able to hear our community notices and conversations.

Have a great time!

LANDED CITIZEN INFORMATION:PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION FIRST!!!!

Regarding Residency here:

1) Caledon sims (regions) are private island sims.  Many sims use telehubs and share a common theme.

2) No refunds.  Read this entire document carefully!

3) Sims may vary in tier rates, due to the 15 Nov 2006 price change for servers.  Also, some sims may be urban or rural environments – make sure to look up the specific sim theme in this document for additional details.

4) Recently, in a ‘town hall’ meeting our service provider mentioned a sixty day notice should sim tier increase – such things usually aren’t mentioned unless a tier increase is a possibility.  I hope everyone understands that if Caledon’s tier fees change, or we need to upgrade in order to stay competitive, land fees have to change comparatively in affected regions.  Any such changes would not be done casually.

5) Communication and notices will be done primarily via group notice in the Independent State of Caledon Group.  If you choose not to be a member of that group, there will be a ‘recent notices’ notecard giver on the first floor of the Guvnah’s Mansion in Caledon VictoriaCity, (southeast corner of the sim).

You can read the rest of this very long document in the Covenant tab of About Land in Caledon.
