4 Fun and Active Years of the Dinkies!

On 2nd November, we will celebrate five wonderful years since the Dinkies came to life in OpenSim at the Funsize Dinkies World Resort!

What an amazing journey it has been so far! Four years filled with fun, laughter, friendship, adventures, and so many beautiful memories. And, of course, many more wonderful years are still to come!

As most of you know, the Dinkies Resort has moved a couple of times over these past four years, always searching for the perfect place to call home.

And now, the Funsize Dinkies have finally found their special home on LinkUp Grid, where many Dinkies have already been enjoying their wonderful lives since the grid first opened.

We are so happy to see our little community continue to grow, welcome new faces, make new friends, and create even more unforgettable memories together.
A huge thank-you to everyone who has been part of our journey over these four amazing years. Whether you have been with us since the very beginning or joined us along the way, you are all part of what makes the Funsize Dinkies World Resort such a special place!

Here’s to more fun, more adventures, more friendships, and many, many more happy years together on LinkUp Grid!
Once a Dinkie, always a Dinkie!

Hi everyone. I have had a few people ask if we will upload IAR files to Wolf Territories from OSGRID. Unfortunately we have to protect the security of the grid so we will not be doing that at this time. However I'm pleased to say that region owners can upload OAR files, although we have a scanner that pre-scans OAR's. We are running a custom version of OpenSim called WolfSim that has many built in protections, including running on dotnet 10 rather than 8 like many grids, properly locked down servers running our WolfStack infrastructure software (https://wolfstack.org) etc. Plus users benefiting from our Viewers get added security,

We have removed some quite severe security vulnerabilities in Firestorm in our WolfViewer viewer that can run on any grid, but Wolf users get a lot of extra features. I wish everyone all the best with what is going on but that's where Wolf Territories is at the moment. Please PM me if you have any questions Lone Wolf in world, on discord or on this platform.

🌿 Welcome to Rigatoni Cemetery! 🌿

Dear OSgrid friends,

Sometimes, even virtual worlds need a place where memories can live on. ❤️

I’m so happy that we can offer this little project completely free of charge! With OSgrid approaching its expected closure at the end of December, I thought it would be lovely to create a special place where everyone can leave a personal mark and preserve a little piece of their virtual life.

Rigatoni Cemetery welcomes you!

There is currently room for 30 individual gravesites , each measuring 64 × 64, where you can create your own memorial, design a unique resting place, or simply celebrate the memories and friendships you made in OSgrid.

Our friendly cemetery administrator, Toni Riga , will be happy to help you find your own parcel.

Everyone is welcome. No fees, no pressure — just a little place for memories, creativity, and friendship.

Because even when a virtual world disappears, the memories we made there deserve a home. 🌹

new OAR + IAR kiosk. we use wormhole for safe secure large file uploads (we support up to 100GB) . touch the kiosk in the Payments & Support center to upload your Oar or Iar file. You can download a wormhole GUI client or use the command line. Doesn't have to be on the same computer, you just need to enter the Wormhole code and we'll pull it.

Note: only one of each can be uploaded at a time. if you upload a second Oar or Iar it will replace the previous one. So you have to wait until it is loaded on grid if you have more files to upload.

😂🚨 SECURITY HAS REQUESTED MUSIC! 🚨🎧

The security man has spoken, and Adrian Moon has answered! 🤣🔥

Apparently, keeping people safe wasn't enough… now he's requesting tunes too! 🎶😂 Adrian's stepping up to the decks to give The Rooftop some serious vibes!

WHOEVER WANTS TO COME DOWN, THIS IS THE PLACE! 🍻🎧🔥

Hello, dear OSgrid friends!

With the expected closure of OSgrid at the end of December 2026, many of us are facing the challenge of finding a new virtual home. Over the past few days, several residents have already reached out to me looking for a place to settle in.

If you are one of them, you are very welcome at Cozy Sun Grid! We would love to help you find a new home for your avatar, meet new friends, and become part of a small, creative community where people know and appreciate one another.

There is room for you here — and perhaps this is the beginning of something wonderful!

Hello, dear homeless OSgrid residents!

At the end of December 2026, an era is expected to come to an end: OSgrid is likely to shut down. Over the past few days, many residents have already contacted me looking for a new place to call home.

There is still plenty of space available on Tartaria , and we expect to be able to offer around 10 more parcels. However, Tartaria will be moving to my own grid at the end of December.

Explore Cozy Sun Grid:
https://opensimworld.com/dir/?grid=sun.cozycomforts.net:80...

Due to the limited number of available accounts, we can initially welcome only 7 new residents .

We would love to get to know you personally! So come over, explore our regions, and have a chat with us. We are not looking for anonymous tenants, but for people who want to become part of a small, creative, and lively community.

Learn more about us:
https://cozycomfortsgrids.wordpress.com

We already have several lovingly designed regions. Anula is located at the very top of the large map. It is still largely undeveloped, offering plenty of room for new ideas. Additional parcels will also become available there soon.

There is no need to rush. We still have more than two months until the end of December — enough time to bring the right people together and build something wonderful.

If you are looking for a new home for your avatar and value community, creativity, and a personal atmosphere, come and visit us! We look forward to meeting you.

Want your own region on Cozy Sun Grid?

We offer small regions for just €15 per quarter .

We work together to plan and fund the server, ensuring that we can build a stable virtual home for our community in the long run. Our fixed quarterly fee keeps costs transparent and helps us plan reliably.

If you would like to become part of our grid community and create your own little world, simply get in touch with me. We can discuss the possibilities together, and we look forward to welcoming you!

The Cozy Sun Grid Team

To those in OS Grid that have a rental here, when you migrate to a new grid. Send me a message in world of what land number you had and your os username. I will reset it so your new avi can re rent it. or you can refund it and then have the new avi rent it.

All of us at My Virtual beach are devastated of the news of OS Grid. I wish there was something I/we could do.

I cant believe after all these years one person could trash a whole grid like that.

When I first came to opensim OS grid was the first place i got stuff for my suitcase (inventory) I have met a lot of friends in OS Grid over the years. The time i have spent in LBSA PLaza will always be cherished and missed. OS Grid was my first for a lot of things.

I have learned so much for a lot of people in OS Grid.

Hugs to all affected by the shutdown. Where you may end up, you all know where to find me to keep in touch. I hope someone saves LBZA Plaza, i enjoy hanging out there. it was the central hub for all grids.

MONSTERS & CRYSTALS!

Well, it has been a hot minute since I pushed some mesh up into the stores!

We have some TRULY HORRIBLE MONSTERS new in the Original Stuffz & Junkz! Ready and willing to be in your scariest Halloween regions!

(Don't tell them they are horrible! They have lovely personalities!)

We also have some wonderful crystals in the Stuffz & Junkz Outdoors! Perfect for your crystal garden or your crystal caves!

https://www.osgrid.online/news/the-end-of-the-road/

I honestly believe this is a tragedy of heartbreaking proportions. 💔

The thought that someone could deliberately cause this kind of devastation to a grid that has been part of the OpenSim community for 19 years fills me with an anger and sadness that I can hardly put into words.

This hits far below the belt—not only for the residents of OSGrid, but especially for the administrators and developers who have worked so hard, year after year, to keep this grid alive through every challenge, setback, and technical difficulty they have faced. To the OSGrid admins and developers, I applaud you. I honor your dedication, your perseverance, and every effort you have made to keep this community going. You deserved better than to have your years of hard work put at risk in this way.

I am grieving over this. Yes, grieving! Because behind every avatar, every region, every creation, and every corner of a virtual world are real people who have invested their time, their energy, their creativity, and their hearts. Many have volunteered countless hours to help build and sustain a community they believed in. Their efforts matter. Their contributions matter. And the people behind them matter!

If the reported actions were deliberate, then I find it absolutely heartbreaking that someone's desire to cause harm could reach a point where the infrastructure supporting an entire community is put in jeopardy. Nineteen years of history, dedication, friendships, and shared experiences are not something to take lightly. OSGrid has been an important part of the OpenSim story, and the possibility of losing it is devastating.

What I struggle to understand is WHY.

Why do disagreements have to escalate into destruction? Why can't people walk away from a disagreement without trying to hurt others? Why spread rumors, turn people against one another, encourage griefing, or drag innocent members of a community into personal conflicts? And why would anyone ever think that damaging an entire grid is an acceptable response to a grievance?

If someone has a problem with another person, there are ways to address it. There are ways to disagree, to speak up, to walk away, and to seek resolution. But deliberately inflicting harm on an entire community—if that is what has happened—is not a solution. It is devastation that reaches far beyond the person one might be angry with.

And who ultimately pays the price? The innocent residents. The creators. The volunteers. The administrators and developers who have given so much of themselves. The people who simply wanted a place to build, explore, socialize, and enjoy the world they helped create.

THAT is what breaks my heart.

I am angry. I am deeply saddened. I am dismayed that something so destructive could threaten a community with such a long history. I cannot pretend that this doesn't hurt, because it does. And my heart goes out to everyone who has made OSGrid a part of their lives over these many years.

To the people of OSGrid, please know that your time, your creativity, your friendships, and your contributions have not been meaningless. Whatever happens next, those nineteen years cannot simply be erased from the lives of the people who shared them. The memories, the skills learned, the things created, and the friendships formed are part of your stories, and they still matter.

To the OSGrid administrators and developers: THANK YOU. Thank you for your years of service, your persistence, and your willingness to keep working through the difficult times. You have my sincere respect and heartfelt sympathy.

And to whoever may be responsible for deliberately causing this reported damage, I hope you understand the human cost of what your actions may have done. This is so much bigger than a personal disagreement or a desire for revenge. Real people are hurting. A community is grieving. Years of volunteer effort deserve respect, not destruction.

I pray that the truth will come to light, that those affected will find support and strength, and that the OpenSim community will respond to this painful moment with compassion, wisdom, and solidarity rather than more hostility.

**This is heartbreaking. This is devastating. And it is a reminder that behind every virtual world are real human beings whose hearts, efforts, and friendships deserve to be treated with care.** 💔

We are not totally sure what happened to osgrid but I reviewed the opensimulator code we use on Holoneon Grid and it seems plausible that inventory can be manipulated through the HG Inventory service. (it provides inventory service when you travel off grid to another grid). We closed some holes and added verbose logging in a separate log file.

ALSO, the opensimulator system allows HG Inventory access remotely, without authentication, 100% of the time. I changed the code on Holoneon Grid and added a gate that disables HG Inventory for your account if 1) you are NOT online or 2) you are online but on holoneon grid. makes it a bit better. The HG Inventory service should only be available if you travel off-grid.

Works in dev but lemme know if you have issues.

Rebooting the grid at 4:30 pm grid time today to install the updates. thanks!
