| 8 | <p>(04:36:29 AM) alice_crush: What if we let folks run more than one inventory asset server, and make some asset servers private/subscription. Which just means if a person takes no action they'll never see an asset from a private server. *Then* say folks in Japan can have a sim full of nasty lolicon, and folks from countries that make it illegal to see such pictures won't ever be accidentally exposed. *And* the grid will stay 'pure' never serving "bad" images.

| 29 | <p>Imagine that texture assets can come from multiple sources. When a sim tells your client about a texture it only tells you an ID, your client has to find out which server has the resource for you.</p> | ||
| 30 | <p>Imagine your client has a list of servers to try, it can simply go through the list of servers stopping as soon as a server gives a response.</p> | ||
| 31 | <p>Imagine that some of the servers in the list come from standard places such as the sim. Imagine that other of the servers come from a manually selected list of private subscription servers.</p> | ||
| 32 | <p>Say I am in simulator 101, I get told about a resource named "409" from the simulator. I check all the asset servers I know. If I don't find it, I show a blank/gray texture.</p> | ||
| 33 | <p>You might be in the same simulator, and you get told about the same resource named "409" by the simulator. In addition to the simulator though, you have a private server you can check, and there you find resource "409" so you client can draw it for you.</p> | ||
| 34 | <p>In this way you and I looking at a third person might see something different. You see the third person wearing a shirt with the logo of a sports team. I see a very plain gray 'slider' shirt, not even with textures cuffs and hems.</p> | ||
