Help Islands

(See Help Island for Volunteers)

Please note that only Volunteers can access Help Islands. However, "Help Island Public" and "Help Island Public2" are accessible by anyone. Please also note that "Help Island Public2" is an overflow for the busy "Help Island Public," not a load-balanced location. As such, it is sparsely populated. While "Help Island Public" is restarting after a crash, there will be no traffic diverted to "Help Island Public2."

International Areas

  • French school - Accueil francophone🖈: a full sim with dedicated French helpers, classes, and translated notecards. (Yet another non-profit sim hosted and paid by kerunix Flan)
  • Area 51🖈: The main French sim. Usually full and laggy, but with useful resources, classes and sandbox. (it's just next to the French School)

French speaking groups

These sims are not dedicated to SL Education, but you'll usually find French helpers.

Portuguese

There are no "permanent" help structures for either Brazilian or Portuguese users, but you can join their respective major groups for more help: Brasileiros no SL (for Brazil) and Tugas no SL (for Portugal). People there will usually point new users to the most recently built areas with Portuguese content.

There is an island for Brazilian users run by residents called, very appropriately, Brasil🖈. Another place is listed as having information for Brazilian users: PSDB - Diretorio SL🖈.

Multi Language

NCI INTERNATIONAL🖈. An International Learning Area and Tutorial Area

Sandboxes

These locations are for the technically advanced - those who are familiar with building and scripting. There are very experienced people in the sandboxes as well, but are often too preoccupied to help the Newbies who arrive interested in finding out what they can do.

Unmanaged sandboxes have no one in particular overseeing the operations of the area. They often rely on auto-returns and may have scripts disabled to prevent griefer attacks.

Managed Sandboxes have administrators or sandbox guardians who oversee the activities on the sandboxes. They are often reachable by a paging system or group chat, if they are not physically present.
