It's not that simple. We don't have any clear points of comparison right now. We don't have two grids, otherwise identical, one of which offers on-demand hosting, and the other doesn't, so we can...

I think a good analogy can be seen in queueing theory. There is a natural limit to how long people will wait in a line, but it varies on many factors. People wait much longer in line for a ride at...

It might just be a matter of education and familiarity. Having tried Kitely, I personally feel that all their regions are "there" there, just that it might take a few seconds longer to teleport to some...

And if we want this technology to grow, should we really be making sure we never pay for any of it? The more reasonable position is to look for value, and expect to pay fair prices. This is what makes...

At a certain point, though, technology becomes cheap enough that it can, in effect, be offered for free and monetized through other means. For example, Dropbox offers free storage to everyone, and...

Hi Maria,Prims are not the limiting factor in the number of sims you can reasonably place on a single server. It's the scripts, physics and number of concurrent avatars that limit the amount of virtual...

The reason I suggested prim counts as the premium measure instead of something more technically meaningful is that prim limits are extremely meaningful to users, extremely visible, and also easy to...

These make great sense if one is a strict augmentist concerning virtual worlds, that is one sees them as just another communication tool. But if you are sold on the idea of a metaverse and really enjoy...

I'm really not sure 1 grid (platform) (service) would change how so many definitions of virtual worlds is documented. The idea of re-examined may be a far leap unless its the norm to shut them down and...

Aren't you missing one thing here? Persistent is not "online all the time". If I rez something on a Kitely sim, it stays there even if it goes to sleep. With the definition you are trying to put in...

No one is saying Kitely's regions are not opensim regions.What I have placed on the table is that EVERYONE who joins kitely automatically gets a region and regardless if the resident uses it or not...

Kitely is a single sim system. A cluster of neighboring sims will not work, because they would not be visible when no avatar is on them. From my point of view, such a virtual environment is not...
