Friends Adult
For the last 3 weeks, I have dealt with a intermittent issue on my grid that has about driven me nuts. I have tested, and eliminated possibilities …..without luck.
Yesterday two of the largest grid owners in open sim, Lone Wolf from Wolf Territories and Josh Boam from Aviworlds, took time from their busy schedules to help finally fix this issue. In addition , Rafael from Wolf Territories assisted. I cannot say thanks enough!
Although I work with Josh’s hosting business, this involved much more. Josh would not give up and recruited Lone Wolf.
In my opinion, maybe this is what opensim was designed to be: sharing of knowledge and helping each other.
Lone Wolf and Josh did not have to give up their time to help a tiny grid…..but they did!
Maybe we can all learn from these individuals!
Sharing knowledge is Caring
FYI. The default setting of 2 threadsets can cause major headaches depending on your region….it is way too low in some cases. You all probably know that…but I learned.

Recently I have had a number of people requesting that I allow child avatars at friends-grid and I want to discuss this openly and honestly.
It is not my place to try and push my morals and values upon others....however, as a grid owner, it is my place to learn the laws of every country involved. In this situation, I need to understand the Child pornography laws of not only where our servers are located, but I also had to research and learn the laws of every country we have residents and guests from. We currently have residents from 30 countries and guests from another 35. People who say "laws dont apply " are incorrect on this subject. You may have servers in one country.....but all the laws of your resident's countries come into play also.
A good thing to remember is that because you have gotten away with something for 10 years does not make it legal. You may never get caught....and then again.....somebody with a grudge may turn you in.
I want to point out a recent post by Jerralyn Franzic . Jerralyn showed the cutest childs outfit ever! ....and she also made the wisest statement ...."I don't understand the hatred towards child avis in Open Sim. Sure, they shouldn't engage in adult activities and maybe not hang in Adult sims but otherwise, what's the problem?" Personally I would love to see kids riding ponies at my farm....and having fun being mermaids. If everyone in child avi were to abide by Jerralyn's statement, there would not be an issue.
However, lets talk about reality. Not all child avis are simply riding ponies and playing in the water. The simple truth is that many (not all) of these child avis are having sex. Some grids use this to boost their traffic. In some countries, including US, the graphic illustration of a child online having sex is 100% illegal. You see, it does not matter if the person behind the computer is 12 or 52......the visual computer generated depiction of a child (child avatar) involved in sex is very illegal in a number of countries. 18 U.S.C. § 2252 Many people will say their countries are different....and this is stupid. I did not make laws........but I need to abide by them. Before people jump on this and criticize me ....I would suggest you read the laws of your country....your servers country...and the laws of all your residents or guests. There are many misinformed people on this subject. I am not saying the laws are right or wrong......but learn the laws.....then comment. You need to learn laws for your servers country...and all your guests countries. This post is not about morals......it is about laws....of all the countries involved.
I have spent over 200 hours reading international laws. Some countries allow things that others do not. However, you have to consider all the laws because of guests.
In closing....do I hate kids and kids avis......nooooooo. I would love to be able to allow them to come to friends grid. However, this is a less than perfect world in which we live, and I have to look at the potential liability of allowing those child avis. Because of that, Child avis are not allowed on friends-grid......no exceptions! I am sad....because there are some wonderful people in kids avis that I do not get to have visit.

what if.....
we spent our time focusing on our similarities
instead of our differences?
I have seen many discussions here become very toxic recently because people are focused on how we are all different. I love how we all are different, but we also have some common similarities; the most obvious is that we are all people behind the pixels.
Sometimes in life and Opensim, it is much easier to tear a person down than to build them up. Let's make the extra effort and support eachother!
This is our Opensim.....lets take pride in it!

Teleporting Issues?
I just became aware of a major flaw with firestorm and the solution that is on the Firestorm download page. I have been unable to TP unless I relog for last 3 days. After much research I realized this was a Firestorm SLURL issue.
Go to the firestorm download page and you will see the above information.
I have not changed my viewer settings or added any new viewers; but it appears some upgrade (probably windows) caused the SLURL function in Firestorm to no longer work properly.
As I follow up....I am teleporting perfectly now after installing this.
I am encosing the notes from firestorm :
What is this ?
SLURL Proxy is an application that will handle SLURLs on your Windows system. Clicking a SLURL on the web,
will open SLURL proxy, which will forward the SLURL to the viewer you have chosen.
Why is that interesting ?
Various Second Life viewers you might, or may already have installed, modify the way SLURLs are handled on your system,
and often cause problems when you uninstall certain viewers.
SLURL Proxy provides a user friendly way to correct this.
Upon start up, SLURL Proxy will check to see if it's the default SLURL handler.
If it is not, it will inform you about that, and ask you if you'd like to use SLURL Proxy as default instead.
When you have set SLURL Proxy as default,(or even before that) you can simply drag one or more viewer shortcuts onto the application window,
and they should be listed with viewer name, and icon.
SLURL Proxy allows you to add several viewers, and one always needs to be the default viewer to use.
The default viewer is the one where the checkbox is checked.
If you would like to change the default viewer, simply click the viewer of your choice in the list.
That's it.
If you wish to set a viewer as default SLURL handler instead of SLURL proxy, then you simply need to click
Set other SLURL handler in the menu, and drag the shortcut of your favourite viewer onto the window.
Requires .NET 3.5 and only runs on Windows

What can you do with a 1 sim parcel?
In virtual worlds, the space you create and inhabit can become deeply personal and reflective of your imagination, preferences, and interests.
Ultimately, your virtual world is a reflection of you—your creativity, interests, and how you choose to interact with others in the digital realm. It’s a canvas where you can craft experiences that are uniquely yours, making the virtual world a deeply personal space indeed.
We are looking for people who want to be creative, and create their own special place in virtual worlds. I am not looking for free land collectors, but people who want to be part of a multi cultural community. Contact @zuzubahro or @safinemahoe2 for details.

The rainforest is a lush, green paradise filled with an incredible diversity of flora and fauna. As you ride your horse through the dense foliage, you'll be surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature. You might spot colorful birds flying overhead, hear the calls of howler monkeys, and catch glimpses of exotic plants and flowers.
As you venture deeper into the rainforest, you might encounter light showers or drizzles. This is common in tropical rainforests, and the rain adds to the magical ambiance of the environment. The canopy of trees will provide some shelter from the rain, but you may also appreciate the refreshing sensation of riding through the gentle rainfall.
After a thrilling ride, you'll eventually reach the cool waterfall. The sound of rushing water will grow louder as you approach, and the anticipation will build. Once you arrive, you'll be greeted by a breathtaking sight: a majestic waterfall cascading down from above into a sparkling pool below. The area around the waterfall might be lush and green, creating a peaceful oasis. It is a perfect day!

Feeling the gentle sway of the horse beneath you as it navigates the winding path between towering trees and lush foliage. The sound of the rain tapping against the leaves overhead is soothing, and you feel invigorated by the fresh, tropical air.
As you ride deeper into the forest, you spot vibrant flowers in every color of the rainbow. Some are cascading down from tree trunks, while others are perched high above your head on vines. The air is filled with the sweet fragrance of blossoms and the buzz of hummingbirds flitting from one flower to the next.
Monkey calls echo through the trees, and you catch glimpses of chimpanzees swinging from branch to branch. You marvel at the natural beauty all around you, feeling grateful for the opportunity to experience such wonder.
As the rain begins to taper off, you come upon a clearing where a group of macaws are preening in a tree. Their magnificent colors are a feast for your eyes, and you sit quietly on your horse, just taking it all in.
As the sun begins to peak through the trees, you dismount your horse and take a moment to thank it for the amazing experience. You leave the rainforest feeling refreshed, and in awe of the stunningly beautiful place we call home.

Flora - I love landscaping and this place is well organized
Houses - on AMV region. Massive selection of houses, tree houses, castles
Neiferleaf - this medieval region comes to life with detailed landscaping and Roland’s beautiful horses.
Agora - I need a semi truck for all the awesome clothing I find there

Mi nombre es Safine y soy el dueño de la red de amigos. Aunque no hablo bien el idioma español, el pueblo hispano siempre tendrá un lugar especial en mi corazón. Tengo que usar un traductor, y probablemente cometer muchos errores, pero tengo un gran corazón.
He decidido hacer algo muy diferente. En la red de amigos, voy a desarrollar una villa hispana sim de 36 muy especial.
Si alguien está haciendo esto, no quiero ofender ni copiar de ninguna manera. Esto es algo que he querido hacer desde hace mucho tiempo.
Al principio, este pueblo albergará a unos 14 residentes hispanos, cada uno con un gran paquete de 1 sim isla en nuestras aguas marinas. Además, quiero trabajar con alguien que elija vivir aquí para ayudarme a desarrollar un centro de aldea de 9 sim. Este centro podría incluir compras, recursos, entretenimiento y cultura. Estoy dispuesto a expandirme, pero primero quiero llenar esto.
Estoy buscando gente que quiera vivir en la red de amigos y estar involucrada. No quiero coleccionistas que raramente aparecen.
El centro del pueblo tomará tiempo para construir, pero tengo algunas islas que están disponibles inmediatamente para los residentes.
Si usted está interesado en ser parte de esta especial Villa Hispana, por favor contacte con safinemahoe2 en el mundo abierto sim. Trabajo y a menudo me cuesta llegar debido a las zonas horarias, por favor póngase en contacto conmigo en Osw.
Por favor, comprenda que acogemos con beneplácito todas las nacionalidades en la red de amigos…. y tengo espacios disponibles para otros.
Este proyecto es algo de mi corazón para mis amigos hispanos.
Una vez más……. por favor, envíeme un mensaje directo sobre la OSW si está interesado en ser parte de esta aldea hispana en la red de amigos.

It seems like people crave a balance between connection and autonomy.
Belonging to a community offers support, camaraderie, and shared experiences, but having personal space and privacy is important for self-expression and maintaining individuality.

What is friends-grid and the Friends region?
friends—grid is a sailing community (connected regions) that was built by a group of friends in 2023 and is owned by Safine Mahoe. You don’t have to sail, but if you do, you will love it!
Friends are the only thing that is important in Open Sim, nothing else really matters. As Woodrow Wilson said , “Friendship is the only cement that will ever hold the world together.”
The Friends region is the heart of friends-grid. On this region, you will find Friends Stables, multiple satyr farms, trails through the rainforest, a large Marina to assist with your boating needs and the most beautiful waterfalls you will find anywhere!
In addition to the Friends Region, you will also find teleports to : Xinashi región with Oh Hello store, Annihilation role play region, Aquamica region with some of the largest and most detailed underwater worlds, Clearwater II with the Darwin Eco Project and many other regions being developed.
A limited number of free rentals are available, however, we are looking for people who want to be involved in our community, not simply collect free houses on every grid.
If you want to be a part of this amazing community, please contact Safine Mahoe if online.
If I am offline, please message safinemahoe2 on opensimworld.com

The early morning sun paints the sky with warm, golden hues as it rises on the horizon. The gentle caress of the wind fills the sail of the boat, propelling it effortlessly over the calm and glistening water. It's a perfect start to the day, with the promise of adventure and tranquility ahead.
As you gaze out over the water, you're treated to a mesmerizing sight. Majestic whales breach the surface, their massive bodies breaking through the shimmering waves, and they emit powerful spouts of water as they exhale. Their playful antics in the water create a sense of wonder and awe, as if they are celebrating the new day's beginning.
Amongst the whales, elegant manta rays gracefully glide through the water, their wings undulating like ethereal dancers. They add a touch of grace and beauty to the scene, as if nature itself is putting on a spectacular show just for you.
It's a moment of pure serenity and connection with the natural world.

Just wanted to give a shout out to the team that has made friends-grid totally rock!
Sometimes the techies get overlooked, and they are the people who make this virtual world possible.
friends-grid is not a simple job to run….it is probably a pain in the butt because I have a minor addiction to scripts.
These guys are how I hosted a huge party yesterday with 31 people and 8,000 scripts in that region alone…. with no lag!
Thank you hosting4opensim

This is an ass
Some people spend all their time and effort trying to cover their ass
I dont waste time covering my ass
I simply prefer to have it backed up DAILY!
All people really want in a virtual world is a place to call home
A place where they can express themselves, connect with others, and feel secure.
Friends grid....a place to call home!

Sailing on tropical waters with friends as the sun sets can be a magical experience. The warm weather, clear skies, and tranquil waters create the perfect setting for a memorable day.
As you sail along the friends-grid, you'll likely encounter stunning views of palm-fringed beaches, crystal-clear waters, and maybe even some marine life swimming alongside your boat. The gentle rocking of the boat and the sound of water splashing against the hull add to the serene atmosphere.
As the sun begins to set, the sky will be painted with vibrant hues of orange, pink, and purple, creating a breathtaking scene. Watching the sun dip below the horizon, casting its golden glow across the water, is a moment of pure beauty and tranquility.
