The 1359 year old mystery of the fairies.
The book of the 7 seals. It needs a guardian.
In 7 places you can find it.
The way is tedious and dangerous!
It holds many hidden secrets.
Remember Frodo Beutlin!
Do you have fairies blood? Then you can find it.
Be careful how you treat it.
Good luck fae.

Das 1359 Jahre alte Geheimnis der Feen.
Das Buch der 7 Siegel. Es braucht einen Hüter.
An 7 Orten kannst Du es Finden.
Der Weg ist mühsam und gefärlich!
Es birgt viele versteckte Geheimnisse.
Erinnere Dich an Frodo Beutlin!
Hast Du Feen Blut? Dann kannst Du es finden.
Sei bedacht wie Du es Behandelst.
Viel Glück Fae.

Hello,

We have yet again some news for the OSW HUD.

The HUD is now integrated with our website chat. This allows you to send and receive instant messages to your opensimworld.com friends and chat with your group friends from any region in the Hypergrid as well as from second life.

The new HUD is listening on channel 4 for your chat commands:

To message an OpenSimWorld Friend, enter '/4 @userName bla bla...' in local chat
To message an OpenSimWorld Group, enter '/4 #groupTag bla bla ...'

Use the FRIENDS button to see your friends' @userNames
Use the GROUPS button to see your groups' #groupTag

You can skip the @username or #groupTag after your first message.
For example '/4 bla bla' will send the message to the last used @userName or #groupTag.

For the purpose of enabling the HUD, each group in opensimworld.com now has a #Hashtag that the users can use. We have set default #hashtags for all existing groups, but you can also change them from the settings page of your group.

The chats are always available from the web. Click the "Chat" link at the top bar in opensimworld.com to access IMs and Group Chats from any browser.

For these new features, you can get the new HUD that is available now (Sep 17) in the OpenSimWorld region http://opensimworld.com/hop/74730-OpenSimWorld

And from the marketplace in second life: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/OpenSimWorld-HUD/1804...


Let us know how it's working for you!

You can now use the Opensimworld HUD in Second Life. You can use it to check your group messages, and also check who of your friends are online

Social Mouse Grid - Is now performing some routine maintenance - Please allow us 1 hour and we will be back :-P Thanks for all of your patients during us rebuilding and revamping Social Mouse -- We will Reveal her a new once we are finished!

I don't care how others see myself after this but folks need a bucket of truth. I'm a fur, we stopped caring what others thought about us after the media started taking pot-shots at our community, so let's begin.

1. Open Simulator uses code from Linden Labs' software. This fact alone makes OpenSim a copybot of itself. How? By continual development using core OpenSim. It would require a major rewrite to fix this.

2. 90% of active Opensim users are using botted items anyway. It's the only way to get content away from Second Life for places like OpenSim to thrive.

3. Grids have the right to block whomever they want to. Whining about it doesn't magically reverse it.

4. There are clauses in OpenSim to deter would-be copyrighters. Don't want to deal with it? Shut down your grid, and go away or don't complain. You knew this was a possibility when becoming a grid owner.

5. True major violators are delt with. Kitely has a giant issue with this still.

6. Visitors need to know that not ever location on OSW is ran on some corporate super computer 24hrs a day. Most are on personal computers being ran on sub-par internet. Just like #3, whining about it doesn't magically fix it.

7. The only true OpenSim grid that will remain when the others have left will be OsGrid. Is it a ghost town 90% of the time? Yeah it is but when the OsGrid fundraiser comes around, it's always filled.

8. OpenSimWorld and SatyrFarm are projects from one person done in spare time. Whining about it doesn't make him appear from thin air and fix whatever issue you're having.

9. The Swiss stating what their laws on copyright is makes them transparent, not troublesome. Only an idiot sees it that way. The Swiss was also home to The Pirate Bay - US Copyright laws do not and will not exist there, nor are they enforced. Even Trump won't mess with the Swiss.

10. Any grid owner who uses the God mode function to force object ownership to themselves is using their executive powers that have been a staple of OpenSim/Second Live since 2005. Second Life viewer 1.0 had this function for admins to do this very thing if residents became unruly.

11. Visitors need to realize that servers and internet aren't for free - grids and standalone regions need that to cover their cost or we find ourselves whining about why such and such place or grid isn't around anymore. It's because of whiny children who feel entitled to everything, even if their in their 40s. This very argument is why minimum wage and cost of living in the US went up.

12. Giving something away that costs people money isn't a violation no matter how you look at it or there'd be more people in jail(starting with the new head of the FCC/AT&T kiss ass).

There, now that I've thoroughly covered everything and offended everyone it had to be said. Those that wonder why OpenSim hasn't evolved only need to look in the mirror. We are the ones slowly killing OpenSim from the inside out. We are the ones pushing newcomers away with our he said/she said bullshit and of our screams of what's deemed right and wrong. Second Life is still here. Why? Because they control stuff like this from getting out of hand(and we passed that threshold yesterday) and don't act like children while doing it. Why is OsGrid still here while other major grids failed? Same reason. InWorldz went under because of how its residents acted, not Beth, not Tranquility.

To be honest I don't care if I've offended anyone with the truth. It sucks - get over it. Boredom is not a valid excuse for stupidity(I'm going to use that as a tag line now I think). We should be thinking about what the next big thing should be for OpenSim, then embrace it. No police it to death where no one wants it. If these aren't your ideals then just shut your computer off, disconnect your internet, and go play outside.

into Bag End, a full house roughly based on Tolkien's own floor plan - which makes it rather large...but a good scale to cam around and even allow long shanked folks getting in without hitting their heads ...
