3rd Rock Grid slated for closure May 15 2024

I am very sad to announce what seems to be the inevitable closure of the historical 3RD Rock Grid in OpenSim. I say historical because it is notable as being the 3rd official OpenSim grid to open for business many,many years ago. I joined 3RD Rock in early 2011, shortly after it opening and have been calling it my virtual home away from home since then. Due to a recent series of cascading events our servers are inaccessible by our Adim team, below I will post a portion of my transcript copied during our last community meeting date March 23 2024.

[13:09] David7 Bravin: 5. GRID ISSUES.
[13:10] David7 Bravin: Anyone ?
[13:11] David7 Bravin: If not .....
[13:11] David7 Bravin: moving on to...
[13:11] David7 Bravin: 6. ANY OTHER BUSINESS
[13:11] David7 Bravin: Eldovar ?
[13:11] Eldovar Lamilton: yes, thank you
[13:12] Eldovar Lamilton: As all of you have noticed of the past one and a half years, fate has hit us hard during the past time.
[13:13] Eldovar Lamilton: 1. It all started when we lost our system administrator from one day to the other without any further notice. We were left without access and documentation to the grid, and the person refused any further contact. To the day we have no idea why he reacted as he did, because from our perspective there was no reason at all to do so, our relationship seemed good, he received much more than the money he requested for the work he did.
[13:14] Eldovar Lamilton: It took us a long time to get access to the servers again. And the biggest problem that remained was, that he had rewritten (and improved) a few core parts of the Opensim software, but other than agreed, he never gave us the source code of those program parts.
[13:15] Eldovar Lamilton: 2. In October last year we lost one of our most important servers: the one that was running the Starfleet regions and many more important regions, we call it server 107. Kira Tiponi worked hard to get that server replaced and managed to restore all the regions that were there and finally, at the beginning of January this year, she succeeded. The plan was, that she shows nme everything she has done and gives me full access to the new server 107 at the beginning of February this year.
[13:16] Eldovar Lamilton: 3. In January, we got the sad message, that Kira has passed away. She did not have time to pass over all the information that she had and that was necessary to access the new server.
[13:16] Eldovar Lamilton: This was the final stroke to the grid as well.
[13:17] Eldovar Lamilton: Despite all our efforts, the situation now is, that we don't have access to all the servers - I still try to get access to the server housing company where the physical bare metal servers are running. Even with that, we do not have access to all our servers, those few that we have access to, we cannot manage because the system administrator that helped us move from the Florida servers to the new servers in Europe, has rewritten some crucial part of the software, and we don't have the source code to it (as mentioned above).
[13:18] Eldovar Lamilton: To summarize the situation: this grid is not manageable anymore.
[13:18] Eldovar Lamilton: As a consequence, we have decided heavy heartedly, to shut down 3RG.
[13:19] Eldovar Lamilton: end
[13:20] Thoria Millgrove: Next month will make 15 years since I rezzed in 3rd Rock Grid
[13:20] Georgina Mills: 3rd oldest Opensim grid closes, I wish it wasn't so!

So in a nutshell that’s the story. If there is any assistance or advice you may have to offer, please feel free to contact me at jayr.cela@gmail.com
I will present any information during our next community meeting scheduled for April 6 2024 at 1:00pm grid time, 3rd Rock Grid is tentatively scheduled for official closure May 15th 2024
Thank you.

When you land at Indigo Blue Realm you will arrive in our Teleport Hub. From there you can click on the destination board to visit our Welcome Center and other areas of the region.

Backstory of the Teleport Hub because you absolutely didn't ask me.. LOL

It is me being new to opensim and having no clue what i was doing, built my home sim on the region landing spot coordinates. x 128, y128,. I kept building and building all around that spot never ever realizing it is the standard landing coordinates for all regions.

I noticed one day that people coming to my region were constantly landing in or about my home. That can get to be annoying, yah? For me and the person landing on my region, annoying as hell especially if i am changing clothes. Ok that part may not be annoying for some 0.o. I couldn't for the life of me figure out what in the name of opensimness was going wrong. Because, well, not many people were visiting me at the time I gave up and shrugged it off. I would find out later, wrong move there sista love! Wrong move!!

Finally ready to start letting people know about Indigo Blue Realm and allowing visitors in, lo and behold that old landing point issue rose up like a freakin fire breathing dragon. No one is landing at my Welcome center they are still landing at my home.

Yes i had teleports that automatically put them at the Welcome Center but it was annoying too. I could have moved my home sim but I was already in too deep...lol and lazy yeah just lazy.

So I just built a teleport hub at those coordinates and moved the house slightly over a bit outta the traffic area and called it a day! Problem solved LOL

So for all you new region owners out there before you start building, make sure your home if you have one is not on or near the x 128, y 128, coordinates or you will be in the same boat as I was (smacks forehead)

Happy Travels and Happy Saturday to you!! :)))

A new attraction on Stark, and specifically on Stark Straits, is a new monthly comic, which is somewhat pornographic in content, but is all intended as some fun, so if you are easily offended please do not read them. They will form a running storyline and are created to be a bit grainy and bad spelling etc like old porn from the 50s 60s etc was. So again if you only like perfection in graphics etc, do not read them.
I start off with the first two issues, they are available only on Stark Straits near the AI Gallery.
Please enjoy them for what they are and do not read too much into them, they are a bit of fun for anyone so inclined.
Thank you

Amor fati is a Latin phrase that can be translated as “love of destiny” or “love of one’s own destiny”. It is used to describe an attitude in which one views everything that happens in life, including suffering and loss, as good or at least necessary.

And it is also the name of the new exhibition at Art Gallery GavezDois. It was brought from a large and magnificent exhibition taking place at Grid Craft World, entitled "La Terra Inquieta", where several artists, including us, were invited to exhibit art on the themes of War, Migrations and the Environment.

We were very moved by this exhibition which, from now on, will also be available to visitors at Osgrid.

Some people collect beautiful art

I collect bricks!

Not just normal bricks;
old worn out imperfect bricks.

These are the kind of bricks that help
tell a rich story about a buildings past.

but why.......WHY would I collect UGLY BRICKS?

Because I have a few friends who love to build!


Textures Trees & Scripts

The name says it all!

p.s. I also have a few ugly rocks and soft fabrics in my collection.

A stunning render of Fantasy Land, a quaint and whimsical village of mushroom houses. The scene features adorable, colorful houses with mushroom caps, each with unique architectural details. An inviting pathway winds through the village, leading to a cozy-looking central gathering spot. The soft, glowing sunlight creates a warm atmosphere, and the surrounding forest is filled with vibrant flora and fauna.

I have created a Magic Carpet that can fly FOUR people around a sim and is driven by the first sitter. BUT THAT'S NOT ALL! For 3 easy installments of ZERO DOLLARS you also get a carpet that has bones. This means the carpet can flutter in the wind as you fly. Unfortunately I do not know how to script animated bones. But if you do, I would love a copy of the rug back as an animated magic rug. :D It's at cyberdatastorm.com:8002:SandBox
