We will never forget. Peaceful protestors in Melbourne Australia, hunted down by thugs under the guise of police who are to serve the people - not the tyrannical government. This woman was pushed to the ground and pepper sprayed repeatedly by these thugs.

I'm bringing this question to the group to see what suggestions you have. In the box, Star Ravenhurst asks, "What grids will help totally new people that join their grid? You have to teach them everything. Do any of these grids exist?"

My thoughts. People choose grids based on a number of criteria, such as cost of land ownership, the reputation of the grid owner, the dependability of the servers, and opportunities for shopping and socializing. However, people can travel to other grids for shopping and events, so the last two are perhaps less important.

Also, most of the people I've met have experience in SL. They need to learn what is different here. Which is what? How to run their own grid. Which grids allow you to attach your grid to theirs. How to get free land from other people. The number of people to expect at "big" events in OS. Some technical stuff -- I don't know -- scripting languages or something like that.

Then there are people who are total noobs. There are several grids that have sandboxes with instructional billboards set-up, like OSG. Anyone from almost any grid can visit regions like that. Some people have classes on different topics. But at times, people need one-on-one help.

So, a few requests, and a question.

1. Please name the grids that have the sandboxes with instructional material.
2. Please list classes that can help people learn stuff, especially the basics for noobs.
3. Are there instructional videos that teach basic skills?
4. Please say if you enjoy and are available to teach certain basic skills, one-on-one, to people new to the SL/OS family of virtual worlds.


The question is, is this group the best place to share this information for future use? Is there already an OSW group set-up for this? I think the best resource is a curated playlist of the best instructional YouTube videos. Anyone interested in doing that?

Caribou, late last night. Monkey pulling my hair. Frogs in the Caribou Village wetlands. Fish jumping in the icy Winterland waters.

I love Monkey. She makes me safe and happy. Sits on my shoulder. I am never alone.

Zetaworlds Jeanne is often here with me.

We love Caribou and Caribou loves us. What a wonderful feeling.

Many friends have disappeared from the OS world. Swallowed by new grids and places. I hope they are safe and happy.

We stay in OS, I whisper to Monkey. Free, open and friendly Caribougrid. All our 144 Sims welcome 18+ AVs from all grids, OS and all others.

We are listed as one of the most popular grids. This makes us pleased and proud. Every day we get better. Come see us and you understand.

Our free shops are second to none. Caribou original GRIMM region, the Caribou Shopping Street with new mesh bodies, outfits, cool animations and more. Athena, Petite, Legacy, Reborn - we have them all. Superb Male Shops. BDSM shop, huge free playgrounds.

Caribou is Adult rated and we hope our friends respect this and come as 18+ - short or tall, small or big - so we can keep these islands open, advanced and safe for all. No special groups needed. Ask me for private homes, hideouts and second homes. Always understanding and personal welcome.

A big hug from the two Jeannes.

Oh, I always hated to swim in cold waters. Today, I love the icy shores and the white snowfields of Caribou Winterland. Explore if you have the time.

Been focusing a bit more on working on the land itself while I consider what the first freebies of 2024. Mixed Arcadia Asylum things with modern meshes, materials and particles and it still looks accurate for very deep water. When I'm done I may put all of my mods and new land things in a box for people to get the look for the sim. Happy new year to all friends of Mythos!
