[Opensim-users] Anyone recognise versanet.de or 94.135.203.122

[Shaun T. Erickson]

As do my gates - hence 24 times a day. That's very low. But if many 
people are using a copy of your teleporter or my gate and have them 
configured to, say, a popular grid,  then they will of course, see a lot 
more than 24 a day. Or maybe there's someone out there who made a device 
that checks more often than ours ...
