Am sure metropolis will likely to lose many people on that grid once the metropolis no longer offer free hosting regions.

It's for this and many other reasons why my estate stays parked in OSGrid. Yes I charge for full regions however, I also have free parcels. Grids need to learn that when you snuff out freedom of choice, they will disappear. InWorldz found this out the hard way and it sounds like Metro will also.

your exactly right coder ... metropolis, digiworldz etc. are the "walking dead". They have just not realised it yet. Freedom of choice is what the majority want not cute little tech web pages.
Grids that want to dictate where residents can go and content they are allowed to acquire are finding themselves against popular opinion.
As metropolis and other grids build walls around themselves they become more isolated.
The future of opensim is freedom in all aspects and the massive popularity of decentralised mini grids are showing the way forward. The days of large centralised grids dictating policy for their residents are over.
The grids that are thriving are the very ones metropolis and digiworldz have banned hahahaha.
RIP metropolis and others.

Copper komm doch mal in die Realität zurück und wach m mal wieder auf. Metro (hier die Administratoren) hat mit der Entscheidung Adachi aus dem Grid zu werfen und die Verbindungen zum Saccrarium Grid zu sperren sein eigenes Todesurteil unterschrieben. Nachdem die Sperren aktiv waren, haben die Metro user Massenweise das Grid verlassen. Sicherlich kommt von Dir nun das Argument, das Metro viel DCMCA Meldungen bekommen habe. Ich habe eher die Vermutung, dass Metro der sprunghafte Anstieg von Assets im Robust zu viel wurde. Auch die jährlichen Spendenaufrufe hängen den Usern irgend wann mal zum Halse raus. Haben die Administratoren wirklich geglaubt, dass User, die in ihrer Entscheidungsfreiheit beschnitten wurden auch noch spenden? Nun kommt als nächster Höhepunkt die Umstellung auf das Grid mit Gebühren.. Cooper, seit dem Metro das verkündet hat, haben wohl die meisten Grid Betreiber (inklusive mir) viele Anfragen von SIM Betreibern bekommen, die in das andere Grid andocken wollen. Auch die Good Will Aktion, dass man nun auf die 0.9 umsteigen möchte, kommt mindestens 1 Jahr zu spät.

Copper come back to reality and wake up again. Metro (here the administrators) has signed its own death sentence with the decision to throw Adachi out of the grid and block connections to the Saccrarium Grid. After the locks were active, the Metro users have massively left the grid. Certainly comes from you now the argument that Metro got a lot of DCMCA messages. I rather suspect that Metro has been overstated by the surge in assets in Robust. Also, the annual donation calls are sometimes the users hang out. Did the administrators really believe that users who were curtailed in their freedom of choice still donate? Now the next highlight is the conversion to the grid with fees .. Cooper, since the Metro has announced, probably most grid operators (including me) have received many requests from SIM operators who want to dock in the other grid. Also, the Good Will action, that you want to change now to the 0.9, comes at least 1 year late.

Have you heard Paolea (spelling?) rant about "if you have any copybot on your region expect to be banned from osgrid immediately ! Have had several friends get that message.
