Hobo Reserved Sandbox on Kitely.
Hobo Island in SL up for sale.
Hobo Island in SL up for sale.
I will be moving more of my activities out of SL. It is time to begin planning on what will happen to Hobo Island in SL. I will soon end my support for Hobo Island. Here I offer some possibilities involving Hobo Island in SL and hobo activities on the Hypergrid.
-
Hobo Island in Second Life has been around for a long time. I have been supporting it for much of that time. Partly because of the problems with the TOS and partly because of the shift of LL development to Sansara, I have been moving my activities to the Hypergrid (Kitely). Now I need to think about putting Hobo Island up for sale. I am setting no date, but I am first offering Hobo Island to someone representing the Hobo Castaways (at no profit to me). If there are no takers, I will offer it to the general public on a do-what-you-please basis. If there are still no takers, I will abandon the land. I will set up a hobo place in Kitely if enough people come to Hypergrid.
-
The tier for Hobo Island is $300/month

Alternative accommodations
- I have set up an alternative location on Kitely:
- Hobo Reserved Sandbox on Kitely. For the Hobo Sandboxers
- Hobos in Second Life are welcome to join the Sandboxers on Kitely
- Cookie II on Kitely is the size of 4 sims in sl and can have 60k prims
- The Hobo Sandbox occupies most of one sim-sized area.
- To go there, put the line below in the Nav bar of Firestorm. Enter.
- hop://grid.kitely.com:8002/Cookie II/93/376/22
- Much of Cookie II carries Arcadia's work, including the slum content.
- Cookie II also has a music venue and may have more in the future.
- If the current sandbox becomes over-crowded, I will get more space.
- A new Hobo Island in Kitely is possible. 4x the space in SL.
- That would cost me $20 per month.
Basic conditions for using the Hobo Sandbox on Cookie II
- No cost, no time charges, no cost to upload textures.
- A Kitely regular account is free if you don't need land.
- You can use the Hobo Sandbox instead.
- No prim limits, no script limits (for now).
- No autoreturn.
- Untended builds may be returned at any time.
- Parcel clean-up may be done on 10 min. notice if lots of stuff is around.
- Anyone who has not been banned can enter the area
- Only people in the Hobo Sandboxer group have power to rez, and build.
- Managers can invite, eject, manage ban lists, set music stream, return objects.
- If you want to build on the sandbox, contact me (Selby Evans) in Kitely.
- You can use the Hobo Sandbox if you come in on the Hypergrid

Nice list!
ReplyDeleteThe Cookie II world in Kitely now has the equivalent of 16 sims - 1024x1024 meters. We could expand the Hobo Sandbox to a full 256x256 parcel, if it needs more room.
