I hear JunoDome was one of the *original* aw worlds and that it was owned by
Juno (.com) ... an ISP provider, for which, way back when, you could get a
free cit if you chose Juno as your ISP. Correct me if that's wrong please!
But with that in mind, how is it that the world is back in aw? Is AW going
to perhaps be included in juno.com/netzero.com software as a *try it* thing?
Or, since juno.com is now part of netzero, is AWI allowed to just use the
world since juno.com is sorta no longer? Has AWI repartnered with Juno?
Somebody straighten me out please LOL. Nosey peeps wanna know...

JunoDome was not an "original" world, in that sense. It was created
several years ago, but AW and various other worlds have been around
longer. JunoDome has not always been around.

However, you are correct, JunoDome was created when, several years ago
now (i'm not sure exactly how long), AWI (then called ActiveWorlds.com
-- AWCom, I believe) formed a partership with Juno, a dial-up ISP.

I'm not sure how long the partnership lasted, but eventully things fell
apart, and the world went domrant. I'm not sure what has gone on since then.

Was just wondering if it's *legal* to run a world that was once owned
(presumably) by another company? If Juno owned the world then unless they
have permission from Juno they shouldn't be running it ... I can only assume
they do have permission or perhaps have restarted their partnership? Who
knows, maybe AW owns all worlds and has full rights to all worlds? Just
wondering...

Thanks for the clarification.

I was one of the people who joined AW from Juno :) .. and citizenships were
not free for me i think, becuase i had to pay the 20 bucks along with
everyone else for my first cit. Juno's browser was different i think.. it
didnt have aw's icon (i think), and the downloads window (F3 now) was
built-in to the browser, just left of the AW animated logo on the top-right
of the browser

im sorry if something i siad was false, becuase my memory slowly blurs away
after a year O_o

Technically, the world (as per nearly all commercial worlds of that
nature) was on AW's server... so AW can technically do whatever they
please with it :-)
