FurNation Worlds
FurNation Worlds is (as of May 2008) a group of several islands in Second Life. Primarily maintained by Nexxus and other members of the FurNation web hosting service, it contains public areas for furs to socialize, two sandboxes for building, a Skymall to allow vendors to sell their wares and Club Fur, a virtual nightclub. The land is rated "mature", allowing adult content, including pose balls that simulate sexual activities.

[edit] History
FurNation Worlds was launched in 2005 by Nexxus, and was among the first islands to be launched away from the mainland as the latter region was becoming crowded with tenants. Over the next two years, FurNation Worlds expanded immensely with mainly furry buyers of lands and islands, with multiple financial conflicts arising out of such a situation.
[edit] General conditions
Because these islands are one of the focal points for furry activity in Second Life, lag there can be fairly high. There were attempts to decrease lag caused by the numerous buildings on the original two islands by reducing the size of the textures being used as much as possible, without sacrificing too much quality.
Initially much of the funds for expansion of the island group came from referral and dwell time bonuses. These have since dried up, and so alternative forms of income were and are being explored. Island tier fees are reportedly covered half by rental fees (e.g. L$350/786 sq. m with 350 primitives allowed) and Skymall income, and half by donations.

[edit] Post-FurNation and potential closure
