Dungeon and bondage are adult filtered words, so clearly inappropriate for PG land.
Therefore the dungeon at Baronial Castle/196/194/60, on PG land, and owned by Governor Linden, should not be there. They expect us to follow the rules, but they seem unable to follow them themselves. I filed an AR of course  http://sites.google.com/a/wildblue.net/dungeonphoto/ |

How wonderfully petty. (^_^)y It's payback for that avatar being banned from the JIRA. And yes, I enjoyed doing it. On a more serious note, I wanted to document it for future people getting AR's for adult content. "But Governor Linden did it, it must be OK" |

Well said, Marianne! It's all about context... I've played a kid avvie since 2006. As such I've known the TOS and CS are almost *always* about context. Kid avvie skipping down Anderson Alley in Shermerville with ponytails = Good (& likely me) Kid avvie skipping down Hard Alley with pony play attachments on = not so much or Playyard with a slide, some spring animals, a climbing frame, and a swingset = Good Playyard with a slide, an sexbed, a St. Andrew's Cross, and a swingset = Not so much (Okay, so they're not perfect metaphors, but you get the idea) _____________________

The torture equipment might be part of LL's attempt to market SL to governments.

Sorry to bust the latest conspiracy theory. But it's abandoned land, the new owner will have to remove the offending prims. And I don't think cages are banned in any sim, but depends on how you use them.

That IS the way it's done. _____________________

What is the point of this exercise, to make sure that your future ARs get circular filed?
We are still operating under the old rules, even while some of the new machinery is getting live tests. You will know when the new rules are in effect, there will be a popup screen thingy that will make you agree to an updated ToS. Allowable parcel descriptions and allowable parcel contents are not being tied like that. They are being treated separately. That's because, common hysteria aside, LL is actually aware that the filtered words are commonly used to find adult content, but are not necessarily adult in and of themselves. |

Technically, I was wearing an anthro set. It's often mistaken for pony tack. (^_^)y I... should be lad I don't understand all that, yes? I think I saw that -- wasn't it a Madonna music video? Likely from around 1989 or so _____________________

I filed an AR of course http://sites.google.com/a/wildblue.net/dungeonphoto/ Wish we could file AR's for petty stupidity by drama queens............ Why not just seend a letter to your Senator asking to ban kids from saying the word "dungeon" in RL too. _____________________

And I don't think cages are banned in any sim, but depends on how you use them. It doesn't matter if the bondage stuff there is sexual or not. If "Dungeon" and other words to describe such a place can not be used to advertize a location except on an Adult rated sim, then at the very least this sim should be rated Mature. Or the word filters in the 1.23 RC client relating to dungeon and similar non-sexual words should be removed, as a "Dungeon" is being shown here a sa "Perfectly acceptable PG Build". _____________________
