I think it is supposed to stay PG. But I might be wrong.

You're not wrong... If you're talking about your SL profile, it is suppose to be PG. I don't think they worry too much about the wording but I do know a couple of people who were AR'd for their pics. _____________________

Profiles are supposed to be PG all the way really. That having been said, they are unlikely to ban someone for a bit of swearing and I also doubt for nudity given a lot of profiles I have seen stay in place.
I've seen what LL consider offensive disappear within moments of AR tho. |

Generally it should be PG suitable. If you are an escort, for example, you can say so and talk about sex - but graphic detail and the use of obscenity is discouraged. Also, the forum rules about naming names apply there too (I know from experience).

Also, the forum rules about naming names apply there too (I know from experience). QFT i would go with this definition. Even if you were allowed, it generally makes sense to err on the side of caution and keep it clean. Conan. You're helping!? on a Friday!? _____________________

Referring to your 'picks' thread, it's not a good idea to use your profile - which is supposed to be about you - to say nasty things about other people. If that's what you mean.

She didn't, Chas Just was concerned that the person might not LIKE what she put. There are some prima donnas out there. Not that I am one myself *cough*. |

Everything in your profile has to be PG. And with the new search, be aware that everything in your profile is potentially out on the Internet for all and sundry to see.

LOL usually means it was funny and maybe gave me a smile and or even a chuckle. Rofl probably means there was an actual audible sound made, and roflmao would mean to me there was a really big laugh. Everyone probably has their own interpretation of them but I seriously doubt that anyone takes them literally. I wish I was so funny that I had people literally rolling on the floor as often as they say. Since there are no alternatives, I'm with you. We go with what we have and accept it. _____________________
