Zebrasil

Zebrasil is an infohub located inside the Sim with the same name. It is located on the largest island inside Jeogeot Gulf. It is the only infohub hosted on Jeogeot.

## History

The infohub, together with Volcano Ichelus, was the last part to be added to the continent before 2010. At first, it was a place where karaoke shows and improvised concerts and shows were done by various residents. Between 2014 and 2017, it was the headquarters of Opposition To Vampire Systems group *ABS - Anti Bloodlines Spam & Harassment*. Durig this time, the infohubwas home to some violent clashes between some users of Bloodlines Vampire System and *ABS* staff. The group was later banned because it was causing more spam than it prevented. After that, it became a quiet place with occasional visitors. It is often visited by bots who land here after the land holdings they manage undergo a sim restart process. The infohub went through a re-design process which changed its appearence completely.

There have been discussions about the origin of the name. Some suggest that it should be pronounced *Ze-Brasil*, which would make it a good destination for Brasilians and other South American residents. Another suggestion is that it should be pronounced *Zebra-Sil*, which would link it more to Africa. The discussion is still opened. A Google search for the word will find the free *Zebrasil font*.

## The Infohub

The infohub is surrounded by high terrain. Ground texture mostly resembles beach sand. There are 6 info kiosks which provide information about Second Life, mainly links to help pages. There is also one advertiser about the Linden Dollar.

There is a campfire in the middle. In past, there were barrels around the fire which could be used to sit on. They have been replaced with stones. Tropical vegetation, in the form of palm trees, bushes and sugar cane, can be seen around it. To East, there is a building which works like a bar. You can sit on the chairs along the bar, act as a waiter or sit at the chairs placed around desks. You cannot get a drink or any products displayed, they are only for decorative reasons.

## Surrounding Areas

All land is Protected Land and avatars can freely roam around. There is a trail that leads towards South-West and heads to a lagoon. It crosses over water. If you follow it, you will arrive at a resting place. Further, it leads to a small village made of bamboo huts. There, you can continue exploring towards Volcano Ichelus, which is active.

Another trail leads North-East. The path is beautiful, built between bamboo trees and flowers. It leads to a more remote place of the infohub, where bamboo huts can be seen, close to a few info kiosks. If you go forward, you will reach the end of the island. From here, another path leads South-East and arrives at a wooden dock on the Eastern shore. It hosts a rezz zone for boats. From here, if you go South along the beach and pass through some large rocks, you will find a village of bamboo huts and the volcano will be in front of you.

## Access

The island is surrounded by protected waterways. However, one must keep in mind that this is Jeogeot Gulf, where frequent battles occur between warships. Be aware of the risks. If you decide to rezz your boat here and head sailing, be prepared to encounter a battleship that might consider you as an easy target. Airplane dogfights are also common.

SLGI Fleet has one dedicated ship that comes to the island. Because of constant battles and because land has a short auto-return timer, the ship moves very fast and frequently crosses sim borders to ensure its survival.
