2025 RESULTS
Every year, in December, my team and I review the "outgoing year," highlighting our achievements and setbacks. We also share the development of our community. And this year will be no exception.

This year, like last year, has been challenging and eventful for us. It's not over yet, but challenges and minor problems continue to surround us, and we, in turn, continue to actively address them. We wish each of you strength and success in overcoming all the difficulties you encounter along your journey.

For the "Opensimulator" virtual community as a whole, this year was also challenging and eventful in terms of development, setbacks, and losses. And despite all the difficulties, we managed to survive this year and maintain the integrity of our idea and commitment to our values ​​and interests.
So, let's start by talking about our failures and losses.
FAILURE OF THE YEAR
I consider geoblocking, which arose as a result of targeted control measures (data protection, blocking access to information due to law or security requirements) in the Russian-language segment of the internet, to be the failure of the year. It affects the social development of our world as a whole. And although it exists, our world has continued to function and develop. Yes, it is a significant hindrance. But so far this year, we haven't been able to completely circumvent all the restrictions that were imposed. I hope we will definitely solve this problem next year. And next year will be filled with positive emotions for all of us.
LOSS OF THE YEAR
This year, we lost two truly wonderful residents of the Opensim metaverse who always supported our world and the Opensim community as a whole, and who have made enormous contributions to the development of the metaverse. Luna Lunaria, the great designer and creator of the Wolf Territory world. She has passed away, but her memory and her work will forever remain in the metaverse. For me, she was a good friend, whom I often turned to for advice when I was struggling. Together, we explored PBR materials and studied the conceptual development of PBR worlds. Rest in peace. Your fire of enthusiasm for the development of worlds continues to burn in our hearts. Verna Avril is an excellent DJ in the OSGRID world. She dedicated her entire life to creating magnificent sets. I loved listening to her sets and attending parties with her. She was also a good friend of mine. Rest in peace, my friends. Your memory will forever remain in my heart. We remember you guys and will always remember you. Another loss is the passing of my co-owner, Trevor Belmont. For five years, he was an excellent creator and developer and my supporter. He decided to take a different path. I respect his choice and appreciate his contribution to the development of the RussianGrid world. ACHIEVEMENT OF THE YEAR
We've all had plenty of accomplishments this year.
- We've all had the chance to meet new, interesting creative people and worlds open to friendly collaboration with the Russian-speaking segment of the OpenSimulator. We're open to everyone.
- We completed construction and opened the enormous Galaxy Hall cinema and concert hall.
- We've begun creating a museum of Russian art at the Alex Leo residence. The residence was completed entirely using PBR. Thanks to Luna Lunaria for the consultations.
- We managed to complete (independently, without consulting scripters) the Kario male body.
- The new OpenSimulator engine allows us to fully work with PBR materials.
- Restructuring of the STEKLOFF club. Branches of the club, which was very popular with OpenSimulator residents, will now be located in many regions, and they will broadcast events from the main STEKLOFF club.
- This year has seen tremendous development in our world's web resources. We've acquired services such as our own messenger, our own social network, our own cloud storage for users, and our own Flikr equivalent. Most importantly, we've finally managed to create a fully-fledged media streaming grid server, allowing every user to host full-fledged video streams completely free and without restrictions. Our cinema is powered by it.

- We've created a texture cache proxy server. This allows users with slower computers to play comfortably. Cache and textures load instantly. Thanks to this, you no longer need to store tens of gigabytes of cache on your PCs and worry about clearing it every time it gets full.
- Huge thanks to @FerdFrederix for his support, development, and optimization of the DreamGrid project. We appreciate it.
- Huge thanks to @Mike Mills for providing technical support and solving huge problems in the world. My favorite system administrator. I'm glad the server problems are in his hands.
- In terms of server optimization, we were able to achieve excellent frame rates with the most minimal hardware requirements. The security system has also been optimized. There's no longer a need to block users. After the global rules are finalized, intelligent security will be enabled in all regions.
The "Zorkiy Glaz" intelligent system will automatically monitor regional security.
Despite all the restrictions surrounding our world, and the discrediting of our world by unfriendly worlds, we managed to end this year with dignity. Thank you for your attention. Sincerely, Alex Leo 12/06/2025.

Betty Klein: Weiter viel Erfolg Alex! 1 hour ago
🎄 BK-Mode präsentiert: Drei festliche Fashion-Queens – Glitzer, Glamour und ein Hauch Rentier! 🎄

❤️ Legacy Classic – Glitzer-Göttin in Rot Wenn Weihnachten ein Kleid wäre, dann dieses! Funkelndes Rot, das jede Schneeflocke neidisch macht, kombiniert mit High-Heel-Stiefeln, die selbst Santa aus dem Schlitten kippen würden. Legacy Classic zeigt: Festlich geht auch feurig!

🦌 Reborn – Rentier-Chic mit Charme Wer sagt, dass Antler nur was für Tiere sind? Reborn trägt sie mit Stolz – samt tanfarbenem Minikleid und Stiefeln, die aussehen, als kämen sie direkt aus der Modewerkstatt am Nordpol. Süß, frech und absolut bereit für den Mistelzweig-Moment!

🎅 Reborn – Weihnachts-Boss in Rot und Schwarz Für alle, die lieber Geschenke verteilen als bekommen: Reborn im Power-Look mit rotem Blazer, tiefem Ausschnitt und schwarzer Eleganz. Dieses Outfit sagt: „Ich bin nicht Santa – ich bin seine Chefin.“

✨ Drei Looks, drei Stimmungen – von Glitzerqueen über Rentier-Rockstar bis zur Weihnachts-Domina. BK-Mode: Wo virtuelle Feiertage zum Laufsteg werden.
🎄 BK-Mode präsentiert: Die drei Weihnachtsmänner von morgen – frech, festlich, fantastisch! 🎄

🎁 Gianni – "TEAM naughty" mit Stil! Vergiss Rute und Rauschgoldengel – Gianni kommt im rot-grünen Power-Look direkt aus der Weihnachts-WG der Unartigen. Der Sweater schreit „Ich war’s!“, die Hose flüstert „Aber charmant!“. Ideal für virtuelle Glühweinpartys mit Augenzwinkern und Elfen-Alarm.

🦌 Legacy – Rentier-Rockstar mit Antler-Attitüde Wer sagt, dass Rudolf der einzige Star ist? Legacy trägt das Rentier mit Stolz auf der Brust und die Hörner auf dem Kopf. Die braunen Karos? Ein modisches Echo aus Santa’s Chalet. Dieses Outfit ist wie Zimtduft mit einem Schuss Humor – unwiderstehlich!

🎩 Legacy – Gentleman Noël in Streifen und Stil Wenn Charles Dickens einen Avatar hätte, würde er genau so auftreten. Legacy zeigt, wie man Weihnachten mit Klasse feiert: gestreiftes Hemd, schwarzer Hut, und ein Hauch von „Ich bringe Stil in die Bescherung“. Für alle, die lieber mit Charme als mit Glöckchen glänzen.

Unter dieser Adresse kann man einiges an Arbeiten mit künstlicher Intelligenz finden. Das ist kein Grund die KI im Allgemeinen als unbedenklich einzustufen, ich verherrliche nicht die KI, aber solange noch ein eher naiver Umgang damit gestattet ist, will ich mir selbst die Freude machen.
Es wird viel geteilt in Opensim, eigentlich fast alles... die Sachen sind oft nicht aus eigener Produktion, ich nehme mich da nicht aus, wir bewegen uns in einer Grauzone. Deshalb dachte ich, dass ich etwas beitragen könnte, das ich wirklich selbst erstellt habe und somit auch die Rechte daran habe.
Ihr könnt auf der Region die Bilder kostenlos kopieren und verwenden, aber bitte natürlich nur mit Hinweis darauf, dass die Arbeiten von mir stammen. Jegliche Vermarktung zu finanziellem Vorteil anderer fände ich widerwärtig und ist hiermit untersagt.

German:
Mir war es schon klar, dass die Nikolaus oder irgendwelche Veranstaltung Tommy White und Paristela auf Icelady Grid stattfinden wird.
Auf meinen letzten Kommentar zum Post des Woody, darin zitatlich:
( „ein Auge betreffend Tommy White und Paristela auf die stattgefundenen Tatsachen die Anwendung einer Vielzahl von Fake Avataren zu werfen, dies zu kommenden Abläufen bei deren nächsten Veranstaltungen“ )
Meine zutreffende Einschätzung das die nun kommenden Veranstaltungen nicht mehr auf neutralen Grids stattfinden werden, wie dies immer üblich war, sondern auf nicht neutralem Grid,zu 70 Prozent auf Icelady Grid und zu 30 Prozent auf Offworld Grid.

Ich nutze hier die Gelegenheit und fasse zunächst mal einiges zusammen; Zur Vornahme einer Einsetzung von Traffic Fake Avataren zur Schaffung einer Beliebtheit und Ansehen, wie der Plan zum Einsatz gefasst und umgesetzt wurde.

Die erste Veranstaltung Tommy White und Paristela war bei der Nabila Grid öffentlichen Clublocation , dort waren insgesamt 23 Anwesende incl. der beiden.

Die zweite Veranstaltung Tommy White und Paristela war die des 3-world Grid dort waren insgesamt 35 Anwesende incl. der beiden.
Diese beide Veranstaltungen waren echt – also reale Anwesende.

Die dritte Veranstaltung Tommy White und Paristela war 2 Tage später nach der 3-world Grid Party, diese war deren Oktoberfest in der Nabila Grid öffentlichen Clublocation, dies war Freitags und war das erste Oktoberfest was in gesamt Opensim abgehalten wurde. Bei diesem Event waren insgesamt 11 Anwesende incl. der beiden.
Genau ab diesem Zeitpunkt als bewusst wurde das das geplante Generieren von zu den eigenen Events folgenden Gästen (Followern) nicht gefruchtet hatte wurde der Plan gefasst Steuerungsweise eine Vielzahl von Fake Traffic Avatare einzusetzen, diese wohl von Mini – Eigengrids im Mittel zum Zweck erstellt und die Daten zu Avataren und Grid selbst definiert.

Was sodann folgte ist laut den sachlichen Grundlagen, ab diesem Zeitpunkt wurden im Grid Hopping nur auf etlichen diversen anderen Grids Partys in Zeiten mit Anfang der Events zwischen 21:30 Uhr und 22:00 Uhr unter Hinzuziehung dieser Fake Traffic Avis veranstaltet, damit auch versucht diese erstellten Avatare zu waschen, wie man es bei einer Geldwäsche kennt, ein perfider Plan. Damit wurden noch hinzu die Betreiber dieser Grids für einen Geltungsdrang mit unlauteren Mitteln zum Zweck masslos ausgenutzt, dies wohl bis dahin das das Ziel erreicht wäre durch ein künstliches Ranking in den Vordergrund zu kommen, Ansehen und eigenen Zulauf zu erlangen. Dies dienlich dazu ein Eigenes, sodann gemeinsamen Grid zu eröffnen, dies um einen Zulauf von Nutzern durch Abwerbung aus anderen Grids als Mitglieder gewinnend herbeizuführen. Zwischenzeitlich dieser diversen Hopping Gridpartys wurde auch der eigene Club auf Nabila World hochgefahren, der dauerhaft ohne einer Veranstaltung online war.

Der guten Ordnung halber sollte man diesen für eine bestimmte Zeit die Computer und Internetzugänge sperren.

English:
It was already clear to me that the St. Nicholas Day event, or some other event with Tommy White and Paristela, would take place on the Icelady Grid.

Regarding my last comment on Woody's post, which quoted:
("keeping an eye on the facts concerning Tommy White and Paristela regarding the use of numerous fake avatars, this will affect future events")
My accurate assessment is that the upcoming events will no longer take place on neutral grids, as was always the case, but on non-neutral grids, 70 percent on the Icelady Grid and 30 percent on the Offworld Grid.

I'll take this opportunity to summarize a few things: the use of fake avatars to create popularity and prestige, and how the plan was conceived and implemented.
The first Tommy White and Paristela event took place at the Nabila Grid public club location, with a total of 23 people, including the two of them.

The second Tommy White and Paristela event was hosted by 3-world Grid, with a total of 35 people, including the two of them.

Both of these events were real – meaning actual people were present.
The third event, hosted by Tommy White and Paristela, took place two days after the 3-world Grid Party. This was their Oktoberfest celebration at the Nabila Grid public club location. It was a Friday and the first Oktoberfest ever held in the entire OpenSim community. A total of 11 people attended, including the two of them.

It was precisely at this point, when it became clear that the planned generation of people (followers) for their own events hadn't been successful, that a plan was hatched to use a large number of fake traffic avatars. These avatars were likely created by mini-owner-grids as a means to an end, and the avatar and grid data were defined by the users themselves.
According to the facts, what followed was this: from that point on, grid hopping parties were held on numerous other grids between the starting time 9:30 PM to 10:00 PM, using fake traffic avatars. This was done to launder the created avatars, a perfidious scheme similar to money laundering. Furthermore, the operators of these grids were exploited for their own gain, using unfair means. The goal was to artificially rank the operators to gain prestige and attract new members. This served as a pretext to open their own, shared grid and recruit users from other grids. Meanwhile, during these various grid hopping parties, the operators also launched their own club on Nabila World, which remained online continuously without any events.

For the sake of good order, their computer and internet access should be blocked for a certain period of time.
