(reposting this for as long as necessary until goal is achieved. hoping to announce success asap so that we can have it concluded and move on to a happy and festive christmas/holiday for all) :)

Our dear Luna Lunaria has passed. Rather than only mourn her, which we all do in our own ways, let us band together and show Luna's real life family...just how much she meant to us.

To some, perhaps Luna was a character from one of her rl human creator's stories. To most of us, she was much, much more. It is with a heavy heart that I have shouldered the responsibility as one of her many friends, to setup a GoFundMe for an idea i had: to name an actual star (or multiple stars different names from her stories or rl family), depending on how well this goes. If you like this idea, please find it in your heart to contribute to a worthy cause! https://gofund.me/60f7d925d

Not one thin penny will go to anything not Luna related, with the main goal being at least an "ultimate" star package from the international star registry. All pertinent information is listed in the interest of transparency. If we exceed the $200 goal, additional items or a bigger package may be purchased. I will be working with Lone Wolf on this, and any real life items to be mailed, will be sent discreetly and privately to Luna's real life family, pending their approval. For now, let's just get this ball rolling and see how much this OpenSim community loves and embraces her. She inspired us and gave us so much. Let us give back. Seriously, if you can spare only a buck, 1 dollar of your native currency, 25 cents, whatever it may be, it all comes from the heart. You are not required for your real name or any info to be publicly disclosed if you donate, so keep that in mind, friends. Any questions please contact Leonitas Lionheart or Remmy Ravenhurst of Homelandz Grid, Star Ravenhurst of Tenth Dimension Grid, or Lone Wolf of Wolf Territories grid.

Good morning and have a great weekend everyone!
I want to sincerely thank everyone for the fantastic turnout at our first party at CCC yesterday. It was absolutely amazing, and I'll definitely be throwing more parties in the future. A huge thank you also goes to the Dope Club team for their amazing support.
♥♥♥ Thank you all so much, you're simply the best! Hugs ♥♥♥

They’re cute, they’re weird, they’re slightly ominous — the perfect pets for the end of the world.

Come take a walk, meet the new species, pick your favorite, and pretend you’ll be a responsible guardian.
Adoption optional. Awe guaranteed.

Christmas is almost here for 2025. Explore OMG Winter Wonderland - it's magical - there is a lot to explore - it's a photographer's paradise. It's colourful
It's captivating - it's worth your time to explore!

I have always said that I am willing to share—just ask me first! Recently, a resident I did not know, who apparently created an account in AVIWORLDS in 2021, used CopyBot in Dallas to copy my landing and left it all under his name (Tetho Flavius). This makes me question how easy it is to use CopyBot here, and I would appreciate guidance on how to prevent this. For now, Tetho, you are banned for 14 days until you explain why you did not simply ask. Can someone tell me what these are? He had these around my landing spot.

The Bla Bla Bla Magazine Is Out Now!

The latest edition of Bla Bla Bla Magazine has just been released — and it’s packed with stories, events, and highlights from across OpenSim!

Check it out on the AMV website:
https://alternatemetaverse.com/main/index.php?ccat=bla

This issue covers the end of Autumn and the Winter season, wrapping up an amazing year of creativity, community, and celebration across the grids.

Don’t miss it — this is the final magazine for 2025!

Still about the OpenSIM ONLINE Weather System V4 already available for FREE and FULLPERM at WEATHER SECTOR at FLORA SIM - I`ve built a compact Weather Display for my tenants in my SIM NORGE. They all liked it so much so I decided to offer it here as well.
V4 vendor updated with it.,
Enjoy :)

Okay, after being asked several times about REBORN clothes, I finally decided to try one!

Here's my first attempt and the result!

You can find it right outside the store office.

I'm not sure yet whether I'll make more Reborn clothes. We'll see ;-)

For this post, I’m breaking my long-standing code to speak only in Morse code. Is anyone aware of the OWS forums? Is anyone reading them? Is anyone making legitimate use of them? I have an idea about how to clean up the front page Box using the General Forum. That will be a follow-up post. But first, here is what you will find in OSW Forums.

General – Being used primarily by one user for posts about general stuff it seems.

Help – Posts from people who are actually looking for help. Yippy!

* OpenSim – Being used for event announcements that will never been seen, and by people who won’t pay and support the site by making event announcements on the front page. Things went bad in the forum in the last year. Before then, there were legit posts. The only legit, non-event promoting, post in the last year was about "Age Verification strategies for OpenSimulator and the HG." As an aside, have you met people with profiles that say they are Age Verified. How, exactly?

* SatyrFarms – Now this is a weird one. Spammed by https://opensimworld.com/user/musajackson4 to promote himself as a Witchcraft Zoodoo Black Magic Spell Caster. People complain that Satyr doesn’t moderate OSW enough in general, but he hasn’t cleaned up spam in his own forum for almost 12 weeks. But OWS is largely a labor of love, so give the guy a break – especially if you don’t pay to support the site. But maybe Musajackson4 can cast a Troll-Be-Gone Spell? Nah.

* News – Well, this will not be news. Being used for event announcements that will never been seen, and by people who won’t pay and support the site by making event announcements on the front page. Seeing a pattern here. Deadbeats abound. However, there was a post saying "Wish the news was actually just news, not just advertising drowning out all the bits of news we have".

Technology -- posts from people who are actually looking for help with technology issues. Well done!

* Gaming – see the comment about the *OpenSim, and *News Forums. But there is some good news, I guess. Other than two posts this year, all of the posts are older than one year. Perhaps they realized that their event posts were not being seen?

Feedback – Well, there is this post with an Advertising and Events Forum Suggestion
“It would be great to have specific advertising and events form sections. It might (but we can't guarantee) prevent/reduce the instance of people posting their new product or party everywhere else”. +

There is a forum of sorts for event announcements. It’s call the Front Page. There is a forum for advertising also. It’s called paying for ads. Other than 2 recent posts with genuine feedback, the last authentic feedback was posted 2 years ago. So, being used legitimately, but not being used.

There is no way to clean up the forums. But I’m thinking the General Forum can be used, legitimately, as a way to clean up the Box. Details to come.

We raised a whopping $323 for charity this year!

Thank you all so much for coming by and making the evening a massive success!

We raised more for charity than last year. Thank you all for your generous donations. Giving peace a chance!

Special thanks to Niki, Mathilda, Fiona, Prim, Dolfke for your generosity!

🎁 Heads up – Gift Alert!

Hey lovely group members, I’ve put together a little present for you – just because you’re awesome (and maybe because my inventory was starting to look like a digital attic 😅).

You’ll find the gift right next to the visitor board – it’s hard to miss unless your graphics settings are set to “potato.” Just give it a click and enjoy!

Important: 👉 To receive the gift, you need to have the group activated (make sure it’s set as your active group in the viewer). 👉 The gift is exclusive to group members and includes several goodies – don’t miss out!

If the box ignores you, don’t take it personally – it’s probably just sulking because your group isn’t active. Or it’s having a pixel mood swing. You know how it is.

Enjoy the gift, and thanks for being part of this wonderfully quirky, creative, pixel-loving community! 💖

Today is Friday and you are invited to Rosies Ballroom first Anniversary!
Great performers will sing for you, exclusive gifts included one created by Marianna Monentes and we're gonna celebrate Khiron's singing Anniversary at the same time! On Pangea-Grid

I put out a bunch of landscaping plants at the dump this morning. It was in the inventory of an older avatar/grid, and I was so happy to have found it. Maybe someone else can use some of it. Thankfully, all the original creators' names are still on them.

Whenever i go to a club people keep slapping me so i came up with this anti-slap device to wear. if anyone needs one hit me up.

I also moved my sims next to my love (16 helicopters came in and lifted each sim, i was biting my nails watching.. only a few dishes and wine glasses were broken) so i can just jump out of bed and run across the bridge to see her when i wake up in the morning. If you need to know the new location lemme know.

Now open:
One of the most famous racetracks in the world.
The “Nürburgring with the Nordschleife”, also known as the “Green Hell”.
Rebuilt on a VAR 12 x 12 for a real racing feeling.
Racing cars and racing bikes as well as matching outfits are available in the pit lane near the start and finish.
You can also race your own car or bike if it is suitable for “bullet physics”.
There is also a lot to see outside the race track that is also available on the original race track.
Paddock, Rock am Ring, Camping am Ring and much more.
The track at the F1-Ring has a real length of 5.2 km and the Nordschleife 20.8 km.
Races have been held there since the beginning of the 19th century. In 1951, the Nürburgring was one of the first race tracks in the world to be converted for F1.

Come - see - be amazed - drive - and practice a lot, then it's fun.

Please take some time if you want to drive until the sim (12x12 VAR) is fully loaded.

Gravity on Earth is about 9.8 meters per second. On Europa Moon,it`s 16.66% of Earth so gravity has been changed accordingly on all Europa Regions. Go give a try! Climb the highest building and jump. Nice effect :)
Enjoy :)

The Sun Voyager, or "Sólfarið," is a stainless steel sculpture in Reykjavik that symbolizes the sun, exploration, and new beginnings. It was designed by Jón Gunnar Árnason (1931-1989), who drew inspiration from a Drakkar Viking ship for the project, and it's one of the most visited attractions in Iceland's capital!
