-Encountering one day a situation where we needed assistance, we were met with dismissal and a refusal to validate assumptions against the real world. This perceived lack of accountability included unwarranted permabans issued without warning, explanation, or recourse, even on the first instance of trouble.

 It appears that Second Life's default approach to challenges involves swift permabans, perhaps influenced by past decisions that led to complex situations for the parent company. While we understand the legal constraints, such an approach seems to prioritize suspicion-based actions over comprehensive issue resolution, a strategy successfully implemented by the Kitely Grid in OpenSim. This shift has transformed Second Life from the supportive platform of the past into just another social media outlet primarily concerned with shareholder satisfaction or a good standing with  more and more radicalized "conservative" groups. It appears that Second Life's default approach to challenges involves swift permabans, perhaps influenced by past decisions that led to complex situations for the parent company.

 +//Nations of Oceans and More (NOM)//
 +
 +**Introduction**
 +
 +Welcome to the world of Nations of Oceans and More (NOM), a pioneering organization dedicated to the holistic protection and preservation of our planet. Endorsed and supported by the Shork Group, NOM is the first and only truly "whole Earth-centric" organization, emphasizing the interconnectedness of our oceans, lands, and all lifeforms. Represented by a UN-Blue flag featuring a stylized cute shark in white, NOM symbolizes the significance of our oceans and the diverse species that inhabit them.
 +
 +**Our Mission**
 +
 +NOM is committed to ensuring that no lifeform or biosphere faces extinction. We believe in the intrinsic value of every species and ecosystem on Earth. With a focus on sustainable coexistence and environmental stewardship, NOM actively works to protect and preserve our planet's rich biodiversity.
 +
 +**Our Work**
 +
 +NOM serves as a global network, connecting volunteers and experts from various sapient species to explore, research, and protect different regions of the world. Our teams collect vital data on climate, social conditions, and habitat suitability, providing invaluable insights for conservation efforts. Notably, Shork Cafe founders began their journeys as NOM explorers, gathering crucial information to aid in the establishment of our operations in diverse locations.
 +
 +**Supporting Integration and Collaboration**
 +
 +Understanding the complexities of integrating various species into human society, NOM supports initiatives that promote unobtrusive and harmonious coexistence. We facilitate information flow between different interest groups, aiding social projects and interbreeding programs. Through NOM's efforts, beastfolk who work at crossbreeding stations receive specialized training and support to ensure successful integration and breeding partnerships.
 +
 +**Why Support NOM?**
 +
 +Supporting NOM means contributing to a global effort to protect our planet and its inhabitants. By promoting sustainable practices, fostering biodiversity, and encouraging collaboration between species, NOM plays a crucial role in securing a healthier future for all. We invite you to join us in this mission, supporting NOM and the Shork Group in our shared vision of a thriving, interconnected world.
 +
 +Together, let's ensure that every corner of our planet remains vibrant and full of life. Your support for NOM is a step towards a brighter, more sustainable future for generations to come.
