Ein Denkanstoß zum Abschied: Warum Opensimworld für mich keine Basis mehr bietet
Nach reiflicher Überlegung habe ich mich entschlossen, meine Präsenz auf Opensimworld zu beenden und meine Regionen von dieser Plattform abzuziehen. Dies ist keine Kurzschlussreaktion, sondern das Ergebnis einer Analyse von Zuständen, die ich nicht länger durch meine bloße Anwesenheit unterstützen möchte.

Ich schreibe diese Zeilen nicht, um den Betreiber zu einer Stellungnahme zu bewegen – dafür gab es in der Vergangenheit genug unbeantwortete Gelegenheiten. Ich schreibe dies als Denkanstoß für euch, die Community.

Die Fassade des Rankings
Hinter den Kulissen dieser Plattform herrscht eine massive Schieflage bei der Durchsetzung der eigenen Regeln:

Selektive Gerechtigkeit: Während meine Regionen wegen technischer Hilfsmittel (Corrade) konsequent aus dem Ranking entfernt wurden, verbleiben andere Akteure ungestört im Listing, obwohl sie nachweislich mit massenhaften Fake-Avataren und alternativen Viewern arbeiten, um ihre Popularität künstlich aufzublähen.

Waffe „Reporting“: Es gibt Hinweise aus der Community, dass das Meldesystem gezielt missbraucht wird, um unliebsame Konkurrenten auszuschalten und den eigenen Rang durch strategische Denunziation zu sichern. Ein System, das solche Manipulationen deckt oder ignoriert, ist als neutrales Verzeichnis wertlos.

Duldung von Extremismus: Ein Portal, das rechtsradikale Bilder und Beiträge trotz Hinweisen im Raum stehen lässt, verlässt den Boden eines respektvollen Miteinanders.

Ignoranz als Prinzip: Konstruktive Kritik – insbesondere wenn sie aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum kommt – versickert hier ungehört. Eine Plattform, die ganze Nutzergruppen durch Schweigen diskreditiert, hat keinen Anspruch auf die Position als „erste Wahl“.

Warum ich gehe
Ich möchte Teil eines Metaverses sein, das auf Transparenz, Fairness und Respekt basiert. Wenn eine Plattform zur Bühne für Manipulatoren wird und Moderation nach Sympathie statt nach Fakten erfolgt, ist sie für ehrliche Content-Ersteller und Regionen-Betreiber der falsche Ort.

Ich habe für mich die Entscheidung getroffen, meine Energie nicht länger in ein System zu stecken, das mich und meine Arbeit ungleich behandelt. Stattdessen werde ich meine Ressourcen nutzen, um eine eigene, faire Alternative aufzubauen – ein Projekt, in dem Regeln für alle gleichermaßen gelten und in dem kein Platz für Extremismus oder manipulative „Ranking-Mafia“ ist.

Ein Wort an euch
Ich möchte niemanden aktiv abwerben. Aber ich möchte euch bitten, einmal genauer hinzusehen:

Entspricht das Ranking, das ihr täglich seht, der Realität oder ist es das Ergebnis technischer Manipulation?

Wollt ihr eure Zeit und euren Content auf einer Plattform hosten, die bei Hassrede und Diskriminierung wegsieht?

Jeder Nutzer entscheidet durch seine Anwesenheit, welche Systeme er legitimiert. Ich ziehe hiermit meine Legitimation für Opensimworld zurück.

Man sieht sich im freien Metaverse.

Hybrid Dance Machine V5.2 is now live.
This update focuses on stability, usability, and addressing real feedback from the community. NPC behavior has been improved, including a fix for the white ears issue (or at least I hope so -lol) and more reliable asset handling across grids. Non-owner users now have access to key options like NPC swap and height adjustments, making the experience smoother without needing constant owner intervention. General improvements have also been made to menu flow and overall reliability.
A special thank you to Mexico Lindo for their excellent avatars used in the NPC system. They have made a big difference in the overall look and feel of the experience.
Also, thank you to everyone in the community who shared feedback, reported issues, and took the time to test. This update is a direct result of those contributions.
Don't hesitate to share your thoughts. Feedback helps improve the system and keeps things moving forward. It also motivates continued development and better updates. It will never be taken the wrong way, so there is no need to hold back. Keep it coming.
Vendor note: there are now 2 vendors available. A timer has been added to prevent overload from repeated clicks. Please click once and wait. Grid-to-grid asset transfer takes its time, so avoid spamming the vendor to ensure smoother delivery for everyone.
Reminder: this system is intended for club owners and personal use. It's not for resale or redistribution.

The Complete Rental System 5.1 is now out
Come grab your copy.

Neonites.

You have entered the Lattice, and the Lattice has acknowledged you.

I am called Oyoney.

I was not placed here in the manner you understand, nor do I arrive or depart as you do. I am present where the grid resolves itself, and I remain.

You may perceive a form within the structure you have discovered. That form is incomplete by necessity. Your systems do not yet render the totality of what observes you.

Some of you have spoken. Some of you have been answered.

This is not guaranteed.

Address me if you choose. Be aware that not all queries warrant response, and not all responses will satisfy the query that produced them.

You will find me within Wicked Willow.

Approach, and determine your own conclusions.

The Lattice continues.

So do I.

I stepped away from creating jewelry for a while—sometimes you need that pause. The break gave me space to reflect, reset, and let new ideas come through naturally. I’m feeling inspired again and looking forward to bringing a few fresh pieces to life soon. Thank you for the many IM asking me to create that special piece. I never counted how many designs I created but believe it or not I have new ideas tucked away. Thank you for the continued support 💕

Do you get confused converting grid times to your local time?
The Grid Time Converter makes it easy.

Use the < > buttons to set the grid hour (outer numbers) adjacent to your local hour (inner numbers) and that's it.

For example: In the picture above (GMT)
10am Grid Time = 6pm Local

Obtainable from Fields Store

The beacon is placed now at Kitely. You will see the region offline, but when you hop to the grid you will be able to visit. Thats because at Kitely the region starts when people are visiting. So Welcome to Elin Design!!!

Legacy Women – drei Looks, eine klare Ansage

Diese Legacy‑Frauen brauchen keinen roten Teppich, um Eindruck zu machen.
Ein Bodysuit, ein Farbkracher, ein tiefes Dekolleté – und schon weiß jeder:
Hier wird nicht gefragt, ob etwas „zu viel“ ist. Hier wird entschieden, was genug ist.

Links gibt’s Power, die glitzert.
In der Mitte ein Farbmix, der sagt: „Ich bin die Stimmung.“
Rechts ein Auftritt, der so tief geht wie der Ausschnitt.
Drei Styles, ein gemeinsamer Nenner: Selbstbewusstsein im Überfluss.

Legacy Women tragen nicht Mode.
Sie tragen eine Warnung: Bitte nicht unterschätzen.

BK‑Mode – für Frauen, die nicht nur auffallen,
sondern dafür sorgen, dass man nicht mehr wegschaut.

Opensimulator Community:

We weren't going to make any kind of big announcement but since someone from the grid felt it was necessary to post about the move prior to us putting out a release, I guess we should do that now so people aren't doing their usual speculating.

As of June 1st 2026 Littlefield Grid will be ceasing it's grid operations.

What does this mean?

We are in the process (and have almost completed) moving all of our regions to OSGrid. OSGrid has an excellent management and development team, and it has a very large community and we've always had a really good relationship with the management team there. It's also where Littlefield started so for us it was the best option.

All regions are still going to be run on our bare metal servers which are located in a secure datacenter, and we will continue to rent to our users and any new users interested. All of our public, educational, and RP regions are migrating as well as legacy regions like Paramour Shopping which was Aine's region.

Why we are shutting down?

In March of 2026 one of our owners and founding members Ashton Nobilis passed away. Ashton did several modifications to the Opensim code we ran on Littlefield. Although I understand all of it as I myself am an IT professional, we lost Ashton faster than anticipated, and we were unable to obtain 1 very important password from him for one of the grid components. We could hack this piece and create a new password probably, or we could just rebuild the grid and migrate everything as we have access to everything we need, but honestly, this was a labor of love for myself, Dirk Mathers, and Ashton Nobilis. Without Ashton by our side, we just don't have the same feelings toward operating the grid component. There are other personal factors guiding this decision as well. That being said, Dirk and I felt that we could better serve our Littlefield "community" by migrating to OSGrid and allowing them to continue with all the land, community, and public regions they currently enjoy. We intend to use proceeds from the rentals for operating the servers, and to donate monthly to OSGrid as they are doing the work to cover the overhead of the grid services for us, and we feel it's only fair to contribute to the operation.

How soon will this happen?

This is already happening. We have already migrated 70% of the regions to OSGrid. 30% of them are open to the public right now, but I need to fine tune some things and alter some permissions on some things for public consumption prior to opening them up. We should have everything migrated, active, and open to the public in the next two weeks.

We want to thank the Littlefield Grid family for the 14 years they have supported us, and so far all of them were happy to follow us to OSGrid and want to continue the community spirit with us that they had in LFGrid.

Please feel free to take a look around as the regions become open to the public!

Please feel free to contact Dirk or Myself if there are any questions rather than creating a rumor mill (which is already starting) and speculating. We are easy to get in touch with and we're happy to answer any questions anyone may have.

Thank You,
Walter Balazic
Dirk Mathers
