Just a quick post for anyone from OSGrid who has rented a house anywhere on Sub-Version Space grid.

Until OSGrid is back up and running and for some time afterward, you will not be evicted from your rentals if they expire - and I will actively be adding max weeks to rentals from OSGrid avatars.

If you've put any boxes of items from your inventory in your houses in Sub-Version grid - they are safe here (failing anything happening to my grid ofc, although I do take regular backups).

I've noticed a fair number of rentals from OSGrid on my grid and when I have noticed - I have set them back to 8 weeks so just wanted to assure anyone affected that it is NOT my intention to remove you when your rental expires - I know you can't get in at the moment to renew it!

Come hear the magic of electronica on March 13th at 12:00 PM grid time at the OpenSim Worlds Fair. Let's give it up for Dj Rael Gabriel. Hope to see you there.

* A shipwreck happened. Max, Mina, Anniera and Steve went to the location finding a ship without banners wrecked on reefs near Iron Islands. Rowk was watching from afar. Anniera was on the watch when she found a man's body on one of the smaller islands. The man was stabbed and blindfolded, but depite he escaped after the crash, he didnt make it. Rowk and Max brought the body back. Most likely pirates stole the ship as it had no banners but the crew disappeared. People warned about possible pirates hiding.
* Lady Anniera asked for an audience, to solve the case of lady sheriff possibly bullying lady emma the tavern keeper, forcing her to be a wench.
* Rowk meets lady Sheriff. And Anniera mentions to Emma her discussion with the King.

Hey guys, I have some exciting great news about the E Grid, and some semi-bad news. Well it isn't really bad as such, more of a heads up.

So the semi bad first: From the 11th to the 24th of March, the Grid will be completely down, as we install and work on upgrading new regions and doing massive multiple backups. They are BIG backups, and it can't do them correctly with the grid running, sadly.

As you already see, Builds Ahoy seems down for the most, due to the crash at Osgrid.

We are backing up and then backing up again.

The good news:

We're going to be back fully, with most or all of our former regions. We have a new Server situation and its going to allow us to do this.

I will be adding lands today here, bear in mind most will be up 24/7 but not all. We have a good amount of large lands, and in order to do this, at times a few will be offline. Again please remember we'll be down totally 11th to 24th this month. We're doing this to safeguard ALL our assets in multiple places.

Have a great day and please bear with me as we bring back E Grid fully :)

FRIDAY'S 10:00am-NOON Grid/PST

Remember back about 7 months ago, when Pagane and I told you all that Firestorm viewer was messing up the asset databases? Many called us liars. We even found the text and I copied and pasted it directly from the firestorm website that says this is true... https://opensimworld.com/post/112006 You can see it all in that original post above ^ Well now the situation has gotten so bad that users are starting to notice. Grids are starting to fall. etc. etc. Pagane works in her own business. One of the unique things she did is make a cacheless implementation of opensimulator. It was because of this that she stumbled across this problem the instant she upgraded her viewer above 6.6.14 as any viewer above that number has had some commits made that alter the way the data is read/written from the database. Again, remember, please, that firestorm ADMITS this on their own site. So for those of you who listened to us, enjoy your grid. To those who did not listen to us, enjoy your rebuild.
Note: because of Paganes cacheless implementation, when she upgraded her viewer to 6.6.16 she instantly saw her database getting destroyed instantly on the screen in front of her. Repair database, go back to 6.6.14 everything works. ok so far so good. reinstall 6.6.16 - boom database destroyed again. Repeat these steps, this time install 6.6.17 same problem - boom database crashes instantly. This has continued happening all the way up to the 7.x series.
Maybe the firestorm people need a cacheless version of opensim like Pagane has so they can INSTANTLY see the damage being done rather than letting it build up stealthily in the cache for long periods, so they would know what is going on?
