ARSHEBA NO MORE

Famous club shuts down

By: Honey Bender

A well-known club in Second Life has been forced to shut down because of bots and campers.

Arsheba gone from Second Life
DISAPPEARED: Arsheba is no more
Club Arsheba was one of the most popular gentleman’s clubs on the grid but closed its doors for good last week.

Already there is just an empty space on the Groovemerica sim where it once stood.

Owner Ten Book claimed she had enough of fighting for custom against clubs using bots and campers to artificially boost traffic.

FAREWELL: Co-owners Cindy and Mischa dance
Book was a long time critic of traffic manipulation, writing several letters to Linden Lab about the subject.

Memories

Just days before the club was set to celebrate its second anniversary, Book announced the closure to the sadness of both staff and guests.

One last Arsheba night took place with employees and visitors getting into the party swing.

But as Book and her co-owners Cindy Fukai and Mischa Zuchowsky have no intention of selling the brand, only memories of Arsheba are left.
