Are you tired of having your grid lose your assets? Do you not like to stand still for 10 minutes to get rezzed? We may not be the oldest grid around, but in 1 short year we hit in the top 10 on Hyp...
Honestly... let's be clear... there are grids that are really terrible, they are just awful, and they have the audacity to advertise themselves as if they were the best...

I wonder how users don't realize that they are in a mess and consciously decide to stay there, but we'll address this topic in the days following the holidays. For now, I want to be kind to those who deserve it...

TROPICANA KOKOMO...

PLEASE REMOVE ALL THOSE FAKE USERS THAT YOU PUT THERE WITH REDGAST VIEWER TO GRAB AN USELESS SECOND PLACE! BUT THESE GAMES ARE KNOWN BY NOW, THEN 14 USERS FOR 72 HOURS CONTINUOUSLY AND FOR WHAT? NOTHING, BECAUSE EVERY TIME I COME, NO ONE RESPONDS AND NO ONE IS THERE! WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO, COMPETE WITH THE CENTRAL PLAZA OF OSGRID? IN THE SAME GRID, BUT DELETE THIS SHAMEFUL REGION MADE BY USELESS PEOPLE WHO NEVER TURN ON THEIR BRAIN...

And Merry Christmas to all Christians, happy holidays to everyone else.

Region and Grid Owners: Do you have a lot of rental properties? How do you manage them? Are your tenants also tenants of other grids and do they hardly ever visit the regions that they rent from you? The rental dilemna is real. To rent or not to rent? That is the question......Visit our www.tropicanaestates.net blog section for more details. I can't paste a link here as it comes up blank but if you visit the blog section of our website it should work. I would be interested to hear from other grid owners or region owners with regard to rentals.

Tropicana Information Centre - Landmarks to all our regions and partner regions.

A store for Ruth outfits I have put together using Linda Kellie, Damien Fate, Fleep grid layers and some Remake shoes. During war time and the depression there was a push for people to make do with what they had, reuse it or remake it. This store is based on that philosophy and is my Os version. Some items are original form and others I have textured myself and so I have called the store MAKE DO AND MEND! hop://login.osgrid.org/Tropicana%20Lakes/600/286/70

The Tropican Photo Studio is designed with friends in mind. While there are plenty of excellent photo studios available in the Metaverse, and they have plenty of features, this studio is unique in its social design. All controls are available to be used by everyone. This is by design! Have a photo party with friends - chat and take photos of your latest outfits. Included are over 45 poses, over 100 stunning backdrops, and true photo-style lighting. 3 switchable pose stands allow friends to pose together. Also included is a custom controller for controlling the lighting and backdrops.

Located on the Tropicana Region. Use the local teleporter post to find it easily.

Relax by the poolside. Working floats, a bar and a public house nearby. Treat the place like home. You have every right to be here :-)

I was able to teleport to the grid and i went ot the boutique . 9 people in there but 4 of them were npcs. but if osw doesnt account for npcs i dont see what thei ssue is
Mistressdalgato 1 hour ago
it looks like darkhearts left osw, how can one overport in a region. there numbers were always correct
CyberGlo CyberStar 4 hours ago
Darkhearts is permanently banned from the beacon system serverside. The reason is overreporting of region population.
SallyJackson 7 hours ago
We have tried, on several occasions, to engage constructively with the OSW staff to find out what it is their beacons are seeing so we can address it but so far we've had no response.
SallyJackson 7 hours ago
I guess our traffic figures have reached the point where we're starting to worry certain grids. I've always felt there's room for every grid but it seems others don't share that view. Oh well.
SallyJackson 7 hours ago
Yeah, to be honest, I had been starting to wonder if a lot of the visitors we were seeing were there for the purposes of triggering the OSW Beacon. Seems that's the case after all. What a childish game to play. But, as we're learning, such is life in the Opensim world.

@Pagane if someone wants to bring their avis in an attempt to create fake traffic and sabottage/whatever so be it. We literally don't have the time to care about that.

@JeromFranzi It is open :) @Essensual59 anyone who visits often knows that everyone there is an actual person (except those tagged as NPCs who don't count as traffic). We have better things to do than log into several alts...

Yes months ago I saw organized parking of avatars in DH. Almost all of them were clones of acquaintances from other networks and on another occasion. I tried to alert the DH admin and he was forcefully dumping them for a while as I advised him. Last month they forgot my advice and... All see result.

@Cyber I'm glad the expert checkers have grown up to use VPN:) Next time use ninja turtles too:) A few months ago I saw these fake visitors from OTHER networks parked in the DH and warned them... Now we know who the mastermind this!!!

Just checked on Darkhearts discord server. Chimed in but haven't got the word yet if it's open for people to visit.
Essensual 12 hours ago
you mean they had 28 alts there all the time??
CyberGlo CyberStar 12 hours ago
Because we went there and checked it out in person using vpns. We were able to verify 100% that there was an overreporting of people.
AlexJackson 17 hours ago
Why is the Darkheart's grid mot listed on the regions page anymore? It's by far the busiest grid, and the events are awesome? Last weekend they had 40+ people at the weekend events and over 70 on the grid. Its an amazing place with awesome people!!!

@Pagane honestly, not a biggie, they tested in the past and there's no dependency on OSW > DH traffic. In fact every time someone bitches about DH they get a burst in new users. Just annoying the lack of communication from OSW admins. Not sure about you folks but never got a single reply!

Something fun.

That's a relief, I feel helpless bc I don't have the resources or expertise to help but I'm glad that folks who do have it are stepping forward.

Thank you @JayRCela that is good news!
