SIMONE was getting upset about being locked out.

The girl who owns the grid published Simone's billing stuff and a chat log.

A lawyer showed up.

Prok blogged about some of this.

SO, what's the latest?

Did that girl I can't remember her name get her money from Simone?

Did that girl offer an apology for posting private information?

Did Simone ever say anything for herself?

Has there been more write ups?

We were all really upset about something.

Also, Why does Legend City and Xumeo have different names if it's the same company?
LaLa made a public statement apologizing for posting the chatlogs a while ago.

And on this. Central Grid was originally designed to be a grid where independent grid operators could "hook up" to it and become connected, though independent.

I am pretty sure that is what is going on with LCO and Xumeo. I could start a grid tomorrow if I had the capital and go to LCO and ask to be a part of their "world". I would retain my own customers, start my own forums, etc etc. Basically renting the space from LCO.

It seems like I heard LCO was still open for that kind of business, though I must admit CG and LCO even though they are not at all the same seem to run together in my mind on that end.

You know what would be an interesting twist, would be if Simone and Lala sorted their problem and remained working together.

Of course that feeds my conspiracy theory about this being a publicity stunt to raise awareness of their grid.

Hi Frank!

*waves friendly flag* No attack here.. just a question.

I saw you say something similar on Prok's blog.. how did you go into this without some kind of contract (on paper via fax or whatever) and exactly on what grounds would you be "sued" to get you not to go after what you feel is owed?

I gotta go for a bit but that is what bugs me. It doesn't make sense to me.

Heh, I don't know if that is sarcasm or what. I was just letting you know that if you were here to tell your side of the story I wasn't responding with an attack. Bygones and all that.

But, ok. You don't want to answer me. No big deal. Oh.. you deleted your post too. Lot of that going around lately.

Well, that is good news then. I hope your settlement works out.

I wish you luck.

Did anything ever come of this? Did Simone pay up on her bill? Did Simone end up having her content stolen by that other girl I can't remember her name? Is Lilly Beth still selling shady textures? How's Asri been holding up?

I can't seem to find anything is this a cover up? Inquiring minds want to know.

Was it all for publicity? Were we played to up their grid exposure by means of dramaz?

It was because of soap operas that I finally stopped watching television as a routine thing. I was 27 and it was just so bizarre to me.

Cant people just be happy with the SL grid.

I mean, wasnt this blatantly obvious that anything run by Joe and Jane can turn to shit in an instant.

Thats like the guy outside the bank who asks if he can make the deposit for you.

I can't be happy with tying the future of the metaverse to a single company... and Linden Lab has made their share of missteps.

Online business 101 - if you are small, you have to work overtime to earn the trust of your customers.

Everybody knows who LL is. But a mom-and-pop startup just has to go the extra mile to get trust and confidence. They shouldn't kid themselves that they can get away with the same things the incumbent does.

Yes, it's prok, but apparently it's quite legit.

Contracts, people. Write them, use them, sign them.
I just cannot read her stuff anymore. Too pedantic, too 'lecture-y'

Can someone say what it's about?

It's Prokofy. It has Bolsheviks in there.

They may not be obvious, but they're there.

LaLa apologized for posting the chat log. After 30 days Simon's store and land were deleted along with anything that she had not given away or sold to other avatars. Lilly Beth Filth still sells textures that use major componets from other peoples textures, in a sim sized store (TRU). However i doubt she even breaks even money wise, even if LCO allows people to cash out starting march 22 . Asri's store is still there but it hasn't been updated for months. PrimaDona quietly folded and disappeared. How dose someone with that name quietly disappear ? ? Winton's also disappeared or moved.

Over all i seen a lot fewer green dots on the map. They have however built a sim sized currency exchange building that is currently empty but scheduled to open March 22.
