From: Ceera Murakami Some notes from what I have gathered so far:
1: If you are a private island sim owner with multiple sims, and you only want to flag ONE of them as Adult, the Adult flagged sim will have to be moved so it is not contiguous with your Mature or PG sims. No clear answer yet as to weather the Lindens will accommodate that move for free. Probably it will be at your expense.
I haven't spotted this one. Do you know where there is a reference to a mature and PG sim not being able to touch an adult one?

Don't quote me but I think it came out of the brown bag the other day. Drop Lord Sullivan a note, he should know. edited to add - and I think it was at the parcel level but of course it will apply to sims too I suppose. Certainly they can't be within camming distance of each other if I remember correctly

Ahh. if it was out of the recent brownbag - that one was basically: If ANY parcel on a sim is Adult - the whole sim must be adult. Parcels inside can be mature or whatever - but it doesn't really matter because it's just lowest common denominator.
Same thing as the PG and Mature now really - if there is one mature parcel on a sim - the whole sim must be rated mature. That doesn't mean you can't have a PG place there, but the sim will still be considered mature.
Haven't seen anything at all about places next to each other in any context actually.

From: Treasure Ballinger I'd like to know if only businesses are going to move, or if there will be residential land for sale as well, on Ursula. From what I have seen Blondin Linden say so far, anything that is defined as Adult that is in a public place (which means an obvious club, or something advertised in Events or Search) that is on the Mainland will have to move. Private residences, as long as they ARE private, and don't host publicly-available parties, are NOT affected, neither are shops selling skins, or even sex beds and sexual poseballs, as long as they don't have "sex rooms" (insisting that people stay clothed and not do sex talk in a public channel have been mentioned as the criteria there). As for what will go on sale once all the moves are done, I haven't seen anything on that subject - most people are concerned with the move of existing adult content. Hope this helps.

then please explain to me how my shop can stay on the mainland as it is considered mature, yet I won't be able to advertise it. My parcel description is not explicit, does not contain anything approaching bad language yet is considered adult. So, I can have a shop that I can't advertise yet has items for shoppers to try so there will be public sex.. An adult shop by description yet safe if I stay in mature?? I don't think so. I'm AR fodder before the last souls have even left the continent. Or I'll be unable to pay my tier because I can't advertise so people can't find me. So currently the proposed policy is not workable. *** At the moment I would say the best thing to do is not to make any assumptions on what will or will not be excluded in the Linden policy. **** Any questions like these should be posted to the specific thread run by Blondin and if you can be explicit in what your situation is, he will probably give you a specific answer, but I would not make any assumptions that the response given will still be current when the policy is released. The link to the linden thread is in the first post in this thread.

From: Rygel Ryba On the mainland - there really is no such thing as "zoning" per se. You can have commercial, residential, whatever. The whole zoning thing is really just a creation of the private estate owners in response to people complaining (understandably) about how you can buy a plot on a nice low-lag sim and make a nice house - then a huge club moves in and it takes you five minutes to walk upstairs in your house because of the lag.
I have heard no talk of mainland (Ursual Continent or others) adding any type of 'zoning' like this. It's drifting off-topic, but this sort of "zoning" most certainly has been mentioned as a possibility for new continents, but not in the context of this Adult Content thing. There are also other variants of "zoning" already in place in Nautilus City and Bay City at least, and a few other sims on the old continent (Brown and Boardman are two that I can remember).

Ok, thank you, understood; I just wondered if Ursula would be full of places who 'had/have' to move because of their content, or would there also be land for sale, to people who'd just like a place there......no way to tell that yet I'm sure, which is why people are talking about sexing up their parcels, so they'll be 'forced' to move.

I think maybe it's time for them to pull Blondin out and just send in Nero Linden. Or maybe Sondheim Linden.

Couldbe - I can't say I understand the logic they used in your place - I haven't been there and am not familiar with the Linden's thinking enough to know why yours should be an exception - I am merely trying to make a little more public what the Lindens have said about the rules going forward.

From: Viciously Llewellyn 1. After linking a chunk, one person sold that chunk to the other (but this could easily be done with alts), so that the original person could view their own objects, and find anything that was missing. This. And this. And this. Backup it up on an alt as you dismantle.

From: Skatoulaki Nakamori We have lots of objects we've deeded to our group. I've started to go into the Edit menu on each of them (one at a time) and mark them for sale for 0L, then I immediately buy them back myself so they become "individual-owned" objects again. Is this what I should be doing or is there a way to move them without having to do this? About a month or two ago, my alt rezzed some objects on group-owned land and then deeded them to group. Yesterday, I decided to change the land to a different group. After doing so, I set autoreturn, kind of expecting that the group-owned objects would simply get purged, not having an individual avatar owner anymore to get returned to. They weren't irreplaceable so I didn't care that much. To my surprise, they all got sent to my alt's Lost and Found. Somehow, the knowledge of which avatar originally rezzed them was retained, even after they were deeded to group. And they didn't even get coalesced with the non-group-deeded objects belonging to the alt himself, that got returned at the same time. Your mileage may vary, so be very cautious if trying this with irreplaceable objects. In particular, I don't know if it makes any difference that the objects were only rezzed relatively recently, in recent months. And it may not help if you can't remember anymore which avatar originally rezzed and deeded the objects.

Thanks in advance What if you just want to move? I only have 1/2 sim, but I want to be where I can have the freedom I expect as an adult in an adult virtual community. What will I have to tell Linden so they will let me move? I have a great place on protected ocean front, will they give me an equal place in the new continent? Anyone want to share a sim? I don't care if you have a nudie bar next to me. BT

Plain and simple

This my answer to the question; Is LL going to make me move?
I have adult content in my land I own on the mainland, both in an advertised building for sales and my private home, all on 1/4 sim (recently reduced from 3/4 sim). The advertised building there are no doors, so the only way in is by LM or TP...so don't try to tell me you didn't know what was in there and complain about it.
My home has doors set with access lists, and no others allowed to just walk up and open the doors to get in.
My bases are covered.
LL wants me to move, they move me themselves at no cost to me, as I have already done my job keeping it as secure as possible. I should not have to be inconvenienced with LL's sudden change in policies concerning adult material to which I have been dealing with ever since I joined SL a little over 2 years ago, nor should anyone else.
LL wants me to sell my land and buy more land to replace it to facilitate a move? Fat chance! LL will move my oceanfront property to the exact same, or else I will simply sell my land and all my objects and leave SL for good.
I've already seen and dealt with enough BS to have to deal with this as well, not to mention losing things of which were none of my own fault that LL has still yet to replace.
It's your choice LL, you wanna still keep getting my money (and the money you generate from customers who buy lindens in order to buy my products) or you wanna throw it away?
Bottom line if it concerns me, LL fixes the issue for me (they move everything for me exactly like it is to the same amount of land, and on oceanfront property like it is now), or I leave.

BT sounds like a plan to me. If you're up to sharing your sim with a shop then we could have a deal. although you might have to put my snow bunnies free sex room and diner franchise (I will get around to creating this eventually, I suspect it will be very useful to get on the list) on your land to get the move. At the moment it looks like only businesses will be in the running for the move.

If they don't want me to be an adult, they should tell me now. I want to get this over with. Right now, I am at 1/2 sim tier but don't own quite that much land, so I asked if I could purchase the additional land when I move..they gave me a definite maybe and said I should continue to follow the forums. Let's talk, I happen to like sexy bunnies. BT

I'd like a chunk of age verified land myself. My store is always PG, but if some of this goes up for sale, I'll have to invest in mainland again.
As far as I'm concerned though, if they have an issue with kids getting into SL, and honestly think age verification stops it (debatable), all of SL should be verified instead of forcing people to move shops. Inconveniencing people that actually PAY and support SL just sounds like bad business again.

well, the final version of the policy is out and the bottom line is that any parcel that has a business gets to go and those that don't have to fight it out at auction. I have crappy face on right now.. not happy at all.. So, and this comes with a warning that I'm indulging in carpet bagging here... I'm now selling a plug and play satiated desires affiliate merchant business in a box. There's certainly no way that my shop can keep to the mature side of the requirements so it looks like I'm off to zinna or whatever ursula is called now. Buy it and within 1/2 hr you can be up and running as a business. It has all the instructions you need and really is rez and forget. Here's the link to the marketing spiel. http://satiateddesires.wordpress.com/affiliate-merchant-network/satiated-desires-affiliate-merchant-storeclub-package/

So when does Aristotle get fixed so it can come out of beta?
Currently it's possible for Australians to verify using random names, random drivers licence numbers and any address in the phone book and I suspect many other countries, making it useless, please find another verification provider or make it payment info only, otherwise it is just useless.
