If anyone is running varregions that aren't showing up in their stats (unlike megas, which DO show up in the stats) --- please email me and I'll update the numbers! I'm at...

It depends on what you're using the metric for. If you want to find out which grids to go to because there's stuff happening there, and people are having fun, go to traffic numbers. I list the active...

Now, did you just coin a new acronym?? "standard region equivalents -- SRE's."But, I do agree, the bigger the better...hmmm...wait...that don't sound right...nvm!!

I just Googled it .. looks like I've been using the term since at least 2012.But, I think, we're getting to the point where it's starting to make sense to give the numbers in terms of square kilometer...

ah, so you DID coin it, just earlier-)) yea, that paradigm needs a relook for sure. [and I won't point out I said that some months back...crap, I just did!!]

Should I add a varregion with the size of 40.000 normal regions to Metro? No problem! Just to show the world, that the OpenSim-community is growing like hell? Well, from this point on it becomes...

I figure if there's value to it, grids will do it.For example, a large varregion could be great for sailing. Or airplanes. Or space battles. Or for large-scale roleplaying campaigns with groups of...

Sure, but varregions of this sizes don't make sense. Could you imagine, how much memory you would need? On regions of this sizes you can do nearly nothing!In this case I find it rediculous, that the...

That SHOULD -- I hope -- be self-correcting. If a grid is advertising a whole bunch of land, and people show up trying to use it and can't, those folks aren't likely to come back again -- and will...

Since grid output stats make no distinction between a var region and an ordinary region I would just report the total number of regions as usual (I'm doing that with my own search engine). There has...

The difference is that if a grid has a two-by-two megaregion, by default, it gets reported as four region in the stats, and it shows as four regions, with four different region names, in the map. But...

I don't see any convenient way to tract land area that is reliable and honest unless the developers code a method to test each and every region for it's size and give a final figure as a stat. Grid...

Lena, could Metro also run a new accounts script or something, also? Then we could be like the most popular AND biggest!!!

Sadly all sounds good on paper but at this time Var Regions use double the resources Mega regions do there just not practical for the average user using a average PC.

Simple Mega regions are many and can be split up to have borders where as var region is 1 region but oversized. Kinda simple math when adding. Mega region of 2x2 is counted as 4 regions. Var Region...
