Please, please, please for the love of the almighty cube, STOP buying realms from other players. It is a malicious and though-out scam. These players are selling the realms labeled; Empty: 55x55, or Tropical: 100x100 (labeled as a mine/empty and certain size) they are actually named starter realms. You can not place any one else's starter realm. They appear as a normal bought realm, but THEY ARE NOT! DO NOT BUY REALMS FROM PLAYERS! BUY REALMS ONLY IN THE CUBIT STORE!
These players that are doing this are on a whole other level of scamming, it is extremely malicious and premeditated. They are making accounts and naming starter realms with the intent to sell them under false pretenses. They know they are scamming players, and they are doing it in a way to make it appear as if they are not until it is too late. Players that do this need to be banned, not warned.
I have in my possession one of these fake realms. I was not scammed, I obtain it when I was buying decoration deeds, but I though I should use it to show y'all what they look like. This is already happening to players, PLEASE do not BUY REALMS FROM PLAYERS. It is NOT safe!

P.S.: Please don't tell the answer. Even if I don't know other people may use the method to scam
But if you had to, try to reduce the risk. Such as purchasing them from players that you know well, or buying them from well known and respected players/sellers. The trading section of forum may also be a good way to ferret out a trustworthy seller.
If you happen to obtain a tradable "starter deed" and have no use for it (or want a trustworthy place to lock it up for good ), i have been collecting them for a long time now. The original intent of the collection, was to reduce the circulation, thus reducing scams.
I No longer purchase them, but you are most welcome to donate them via any donation table found within my realm.

( best place is within one of the doorways under my main rooms fountain. Accessible via under the front bridge ).
