I have land on Zindra, I want to make a classified ad for it that will only show on adult search and not get me in trouble.

I can find all kinds of office hour chat logs over what triggers what and who's going to AR who and so on...

But I can't seem to find a simple step-by-guide on what to do, to make that classified ad. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Any classified placed on Zindra is categorised as adult.

I asked this on the Zindra Alliance group, and I got a series of conflicting answers, and a few snarky comments - making me wonder if I am supposed to choose mature or PG - because there is no choice to choose adult...

it doesn't matter if you choose PG or Mature (although as the default is mature it would be silly to choose PG), the advert only appears in adult search.

Heya Pussycat, expecting the process to be logical is where you went wrong

I just chose "mature" expecting that since the plot was on Zindra it would automatically be sorted as "adult" in the same illogical process that is in place for posting events.

I put this problem to a Live Chat session. The answer is that the system is bugged right now.

When posting an Adult Event on Adult land, do not mark Mature (you will get a warning that you can't post a Mature Event on PG land, even though your land is Adult). Though on the website your Event shows as PG, in-world search will show it as Adult and it will be filtered for Adult searches.

From my live chat (since this live chat session, however, things have changed and the Adult icon does show up in in-world search instead of the PG icon):

=====

Amity_Slade: I am a co-owner of a group with land on an Estate sim. Today, the sim was set Adult. When I try to post an event on the parcel, if I check the "This is a Mature Event," I get an error that Mature Events can't be set on PG land. (The land isn't PG, it's Adult.) If I don't click the Mature box, the event is posted, but it's listed as a PG Event.

Porter Linden: Yes, we are aware of this, it is a bug. If you create the event it shouldnt show in PG listings

Amity_Slade: So it's listed as PG on the web site, but should show as Adult in-world?

Porter Linden: go ahead and use PG as the search filter will block it from PG searches

To make a classified ad for my zindra parcel I simply made a classified ad. Since it is in Zindra I had no restrictions on what words or acronyms I could use (other than the official ever changing banned word list but I am not advertising that stuff so no biggie). The ad only shows in adult searches as expected.
