I thought PG sims were safe and non volient. Is this a mis understanding on my part?

PG and safe sounds like the perfect place for a military base, strategically speaking.

Until a group actually engages in non-PG behavior, their existence in PG land is OK.

Are they building a headquarters or building an army (ie amassing troops for an attack)?

So far buildings and maybe weapon storage. I have no problem with them, I was just wondering....

Thanks for the information

They can do combat in a PG sim. You can actually shoot guns anywhere in SL (almost) as long as you are not bothering other people. So if they make their land a "non-safe" zone and stage battles there it's fine as long as they don't let stray bullets or scripted weapons bother the neighbors.

My suggestion would be to go over and have a friendly chat with them. Making an effort to be a good neighbor first can go a long way towards them being considerate of you. Who knows you might just like them. :)

I live in a PG sim and have had shoot outs with friends on occasion, but only when no one else was in the sim. That way we didn't bother anyone.

If they do turn out to be a problem don't hesitate to AR them. PG sim or Mature sim, there is no excuse for disrupting other's enjoyment of SL.

I am sure they will be fine. Now I know what to expect, I will be fine also.

Thanks for the explanation.

Only if they do not keep ANY weapons there, or behave in a threatening manner, or launch attacks from their land.

They can keep all the weapons they want there. They just can't use them.

They can use them all they want, as long as they don't use them to harrass anyone.
They can shoot each other all day long if they like, they had just better make sure they don't hit anyone else.

The US has crazy laws. All the violence you want, BUT NO NIPPLES OR CONSENTUAL SEX!

I like the more liberal attitudes here in Asutralia... and even we are prudes compared to parts of Europe.

Of course, but then they'd shoot other things. :p

Which has what to do with this thread? Oh, right, you just wanted to get that off your chest. Got it.
