Sorry to hear of your troubles, OSW and Opensim itself can be a nest of vipers, especially when the group mentality of the idiots (of which there are many in OS, as I'm sure you are discovering) takes over and they start to back each other up, no matter how much in the wrong they are. Do your own thing and just ignore the idiots and fools who cannot think for themselves and who seem to need to do down anyone they think challenges their limited way of thinking. There are plenty of good people out there in the metaverse who have cause to avoid the pages of OSW and the toxic attitudes of some other users.

Can I add my crap? All I've produced is crap, according to those snobs who think anything that isn't mesh is bad. Sure, my older prim creations could do with mesh elements but for a lot of stuff prims are still as good as anything else. For details mesh is unapproachable, but for things like walls and roofs etc, prims are just as good IMO.

Thank Jamie... I still have some of the houses you created that I downloaded from the now sadly departed OpenSimCreations website that was such a great resource. You can see them in this video I made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulLyPWRmo1s

Aww cool! Yeah I miss that place everyday too. Harper mentioned it in her other post the other day but I didn't get a chance to comment back in time. Those were the days:)

Impressive Halloween build! It would be hugely beneficial though if a sign was placed at the landing point at the Halloween build pointing towards the Haloween Shop as it's obscured by a bus and is difficult to find.

Even the Misftiz grid states on the home page that only residents of Infinite Grid can HG teleport there. Infinite Grid seems as unsavoury as Misfitz from the limited amount of information I've gleaned. There was a rather heated discussion about Misfitz in Hypergrid Business a few years ago.

Hmmm, ble i gychwyn? Cyrhaeddais i gan disgwyl lle hyfryd Cymreig a chartrefol, ond cefais sioc enfawr wrth sylweddoli bod y lle fel America - enfawr, gwastad ac yn llawn llefydd bwyd cyflym ac ardal siopa cymharol diflas a didrefn lle mi oedd hi’n amhosib prynu beic modur a thynodd fy sylw. Mae'r man glanio yn bell o unman, sydd yn iawn, ond ble mae'r arwyddbyst i gyfeirio rhywun at y siopau ayyb? Roedd un peth braf beth bynnag, roeddwn yn falch i weld yr arosfan bws a'r loriau a wnes i ryw ddeuddeg mlynedd yn ôl!

That OSS psychological profile of Hitler could also quite accurately be applied to Trump or Putin, and perhaps every other tyrant in the world.

Good post... The one who has been silenced here recently claims to be a fan of Star Trek... Yet clearly doesn't get Star Trek.

I think Dorena has already stated her criteria for deleting comments, and those are where she comes in for unwarranted personal attacks. If you feel hurt, then I suggest growing a bit more of a thick skin. While you're about it, take a look at GlennXpletive's profile here on OSW if you think you've had a hard time under attack.
I have deleted comments to my posts in the past, and I dare say I will do so again. Sometimes the comments are irrelevant, which is common here given that so many seem to glean their information from far-right/alt-right/conspiracy theory sites as well as sometimes going off on a rant completely unrelated to the post.
I've written this previously, and it needs re-iterating, no one's freedom of speech is being breached through having their comment deleted from a post here. Anyone can post their opinion elsewhere if they so choose, or even set up their own website to peddle their own take on things.

That's an impossibility Dorena, Pagane seems to suffer from a Tourette's like affliction where responding with utter garbage is an involuntary reaction.

Why not here also? Those who do not wish to take part do not have to. Nor do they have to read the posts and subsequent comment thread.

I guess because I have always read Dorena and enjoyed reading her, so I guess now when I see her posts I will close the window, I had hoped the posts could be related to virtual world creating and Opensim, not a picture of Trump of Putin. I would much rather read opensim related topics. The election will be over soon, what will you post then? Dorena is proud of being in Opensim since 2009 why not post and share all she has learned and be the mentor to help others.

Dorena's post are always relevant, but if you don't like the subject of her posts, the wise thing to do is close and ignore them. Hasn't it occurred to you that sometimes some subjects need to take precedence. The fate of the world is far more important than the utterly irrelevant activities in Opensim. Also, the election may well be over soon, but the fight against fascism and other forms of totalitarianism and demagogary will go on. If nothing else, Dorena's posts alert us to those who would seek to minimise or even glorify the actions of Trump. Between us, we've been successful in silencing one particularly nasty individual on this site, not because of his objectionable and unsavoury opinions, but because of the level of abuse he heaped on us for merely having the audacity to express an opinion and to challenge his pea brained comments. That I consider a huge success.
By comparison, Pagane and Arielle are mere irritants, Arielle not being able to string a logical argument together, and Pagane apparently posting increasingly deranged gobbledegook bordering on the unhinged.
Who can say what Dorena's purpose is in making the posts she does, one thing is clear, those who are cheer leaders for Trump and his ilk are gradually exposing themselves.

It's not that the issues of the world are unimportant, but rather that Opensim is often not the appropriate venue for such discussions. Exposing Trump supporters at Opensimworld? So what will that accomplish exactly? Many users come here specifically to escape the constant barrage of real-world concerns, seeking instead a space where they can relax and engage with others in a different, more positive way. There are more opensim supporters here than Trump or Putin.

Both Dorena and myself are of the opinion that reasoned argument is perfectly acceptable, as is constructive criticism. The bulk of the political content that Dorena and myself have posted recently is to try and draw attention to the fact that the people of the USA are about to have an election that will have a massive impact on the world, and neither of us wants to see Donald Trump elected as president. No one in their right minds want's to see such a tyrannical demagogue elected, and those who make excuses for him need to perhaps take a step back and engage their critical thinking skills with a sense of urgency. Seriously, does anyone want to see elected a convicted rapist, someone who is on record making misogynistic comments, someone who expressed a desire to have sex with his own daughter? And those are just for starters. Read Miles Taylor's Blowback: A Warning to Save Democracy and you'll see what the threats are of a Trump win in November.
Those of us who live outside of the USA don't have a vote, and obviously can't take part in making the decision, but we do have the right, nay the duty to at least try and influence people as it's not just the people of the USA who are affected in all sorts of different ways.

The purpose of Opensim, like any virtual world, is to foster creativity, collaboration, and positive interaction. While it may be a "blank canvas" in terms of content, the spirit of the platform is to create, share, and connect. Using it to spread hate or irrelevant political views contradicts these core values. While I admire your passion for USA politics -Opensimworld is not a political platform. You assume I am Pro Donald Trump because I am asking for the posts to be Opensim related? I am registered Indpendent voter - unaffiliated voter or non-affiliated voter. None of the views posted represent all people. I may be the only person who feels Opensimworld is not the place for politics I see it dividing our community. I understand your goal is to spread your message far and wide but do you really think in all sincerity you will gain votes posting it here?
