I have been Grid Hopping all over the metaverse… having too much fun! meeting so many nice folks! and seeing so many amazing builds! But today I must make some tough decisions and cut the twenty-one (yes 21) grids I’m currently a member of down to a logical playing number. I had said six (6) but maybe I’ll do 7 or 8 He he he Its so hard to pick. All have wonderful attributes and are amazing! During the month of December I visited each grid I’m a member of and wandered around feeling the invisible vibes that each grid gives. Some are calm, some are eXciting, some were funny and fun and some were just there.
We all look for different things when we are exploring the metaverse. My criteria for choosing the grids I will frequent the most starting off the New Year were: the people I got to know in each grid, the opportunities offered to veteran players like myself and to ‘newbies’, the economy system (some have none at all), the events the grid offers (like games and contests), and the founders. A friend asked me “don’t you evaluate the stability too?” No I don’t… since leaving SL to venture out into Open Source grids I have experienced many unstable and many technical difficulties on the os grids I’ve been playing over the last three years. It’s a given there will never be another SL (where most everything works) so the lower cost and excess prim usage and free uploads that os grids offer mean more to me than the stability. I don’t mind clearing my cache and re-logging. I don’t mind if I show up as a ruth or nakies or without hair LMAO It’s kind of fun and goes along with ‘remember when’ memories stored in my memory banks since first stepping into a virtual world.
Enuf’ about me and how I came to my decision… Here is the short list of the chosen few virtual worlds from my big list that I plan to frequent often in the new year!
