It's even better if you see it in-world.

Oh, and it can handle a full HG Safari as its audience without breaking down.

To quote myself from just a bit further down:

Aaack Aardvark's Arcadia Shop has a Cthulhu plushie, if that's something for you.

Aaack Aardvark made a club lights system and an illuminated dance floor and offers both at his Arcadia Shop. https://opensimworld.com/hop/86546

Also, you may want to take a look at the big DJ stations made by Nebadon Izumi at his Oni Kenkon Creations shop at Wright Plaza, although they look more like someone's producing music on them. https://opensimworld.com/hop/75040

Craft-World founder Tosha Tyran offers some self-made Japanese furniture at Riverford. The shop is at the harbour, and its entrance is decorated with a Torii gate. hop://craft-world.org:8002/Riverford/116/169/23

This is not only about what Patch Linden has allegedly done. This is about the existence of sexual ageplay in Second Life itself which has been spoken about outside the SL bubble for the first time.

SL users are now ramping up their fight against sexual ageplay, also because Linden Lab obviously doesn't do jack against it.

OpenSim users feel like they have to do the same, also because there's no Linden Lab ruling over and overseeing all of OpenSim which is entirely governed by its own community. It's up to them and only them to combat sexual ageplay because they can't ask anyone else to do that for them.

This, in turn, will lead to a whole lot more collateral damage of which many more will claim it isn't collateral in the first place.

Child avatars will be more and more suspicious and banned from more and more places.

The Adult rating will be re-defined as "G-rated, but no child avatars allowed" more and more to the point that especially newbies will think this definition is official and end up deeply disturbed when they come across naked avatars on Adult sims.

Also, the criteria of what makes an avatar "underage-looking", which are ridiculous already now in the long-standing anti-ageplay paranoia, will be raised. I mean, sim owners already kick and ban avatars not only for being under 1.70m, but for having freckles or too small boobs or for wearing the wrong hairstyle, too brightly coloured clothes or too much pink without being a Jessica Biatchi look-alike. Many more sim owners will do this, they'll raise the minimum avatar height regardless of looks otherwise, and they'll add more criteria on top. I expect 6" heels and an even larger minimum breast size to become mandatory for female avatars in the near future as well as a deep suntan for both sexes.

Unfortunately, unless sim owners use a completely warped definition of what's "underage-looking" and what isn't. Already now, female avatars are considered underage if they wear too bright colours, or if they've got freckles, probably even if they're wearing flat sneakers instead of the usual 6' spike heels.

or are under 7' (2,13m) tall. I've had some trouble in a few places because my avatar is only 5' 6" (1,52m) despite her rather prominent chest!

There's a shop named Costume Rental at Needful Things in Pangea. The door is at ca. 77/73, that's in the western half of the first parallel street to where you land. Use the teleporter to go one floor up. There's a box with five textures which seem to be original Cornflakes textures; one is a double (2 and 4 are the same). I've used the same textures for my furniture.

There are simply terribly intolerant people in OpenSim who claim the exclusive privilege for themselves to decide who and what may exist in OpenSim and who and what must not.

If they don't like someone or something, no matter why, they pull all stops they can to rid OpenSim of them or it once and for all with the most extreme prejudice. Attacking every last post or comment of a user on OSW, manipulation or destruction of websites, manipulation or destruction of grids, DDoS attacks, infiltration of grids and circles of friends, lies and slander, even psychological terror all the way to bluntly trying to drive a person to suicide. And I'm not even making the latter up.

In this light, it's always nice to see users who, in spite of all their enemies' on-going attempts at destroying them, don't back down and carry on.

It's one thing to drop one or several of those typical fast-food restaurants on your sim.

It's another to make them usable instead of leaving them as mere decorational props.

Have you even read the sim description?

Dismayland is not Lbsa Plaza and doesn't want to be Lbsa Plaza. Spax Orion banned avatars wearing mesh ABSOLUTELY DELIBERATELY with the VERY INTENTION to make their travels unpleasant. This is a DESIGN FEATURE. All the way to the perma-ban if you do try to enter the sim wearing mesh.

Complaining that you can't go to Dismayland with a mesh avatar is like complaining that Savvy or Wright Plaza doesn't offer the newest, hottest Legacy stuff or that people go naked at Stark.

This could have two reasons.

One, you can't DMCA OpenSim as a whole in one go. You'd have to DMCA everyone who spreads your stolen stuff individually. Since you can't do that, you'd have to DMCA the grids. And OpenSim has got thousands of these, only a dozen or two of which are either idealistic enough to keep illegal content out or have spent at least the last 10 years under a rock. Have fun filing over 3,000 DMCA claims.

Two, probably even more importantly, you have to prove that you've created what has been stolen from you, otherwise anyone could claim something was stolen from them.

There were actual DMCA threats looming over OpenSim in 2015, causing loads of freebie store owners to rip out everything they offered and replaced it with Linda Kellie, just to keep their stores open while keeping the grids they were on from being shut down by the authorities. But the most we actually got was an open letter from Maitreya whose entire in-world shop was circulating in OpenSim as full-perm freebies back then. Some food for thought.

So you have "creators" in OpenSim who whine about freebie store owners god-moding their "creations" and hanging them up in their own stores full-perm.

Only that these "creators" themselves have god-moded post-2019 Sacrarium boutique content, renamed it and replaced the box art.

The Sacrarium "creators", in turn, have illegally exported that content from Second Life. Regardless of how they've acquired it there in the first place.

And the Second Life "creators" have either exploited art students or broken the license of free 3-D downloads. AFAIK, some have even stolen their "creations" from other SL users.

The hilarity.

Jupiter, SL also OWNS anything and everything uploaded. If you read their terms, this has been being applied since about 2010. It was another reason I held back creating new things. Even your pictures you share with friends, they claim ownership. Fartbook does this as well. You foresake any and all rights, once something is uploaded to SL or Fartbook.
