Do you support Content Ratings?

How do you feel about content being rated PG/M/Adult? And what if the rating allows it so the sim can restrict what rating of content is rezzed in the sim according to the sim rating. So Adult content could only be rezzed in adult rated regions, and Mature items only in Mature and Adult regions.

Would you agree with a system like this?

It wouldn't bother me but might upset people with sex beds and stuff in their private residences on mature land.

Blot has a good point- Prudes - stay out of my land!

Sorry about that.

Absolutely not.

LL's definitions of PG, Mature and Adult seem pretty screwed up. Most content probably couldn't be rezzed on PG land.

I think we should have a system for rating content as G, B and U - good, bad and ugly!!!

I think that clumsy and ugly builds in SL is a huge hidden issue that migh boil up to the surface one day!!!

How can we have things rated "PG/M/Adult", when LL rewrites it all to mean "Cleaner than G-Rated"?

No, with all the weasel-worded double-speak LL has been spouting, I wouldn't trust them with ANY syetme that censors use of content.

My first concern would be: who rates the content? Would this be a check box the creator would click in the Edit window? If so, how about all the creators who either deliberately or inadvertently fail to check the right box? We'd have baby cribs and potted plants with Adult labels, sex beds rated PG...

Or would all content have to be submitted to the G Team for rating before it could be offered for sale, or even rezzed more than temporarily? *shudder* :eek:

My second concern would be the one already expressed: A lot of people would buy something, like a sex bed, take it home, and find that they couldn't use the product they just bought.
