I just tried to age verify, and against my good judgement I used my National ID Card, my drivers license, even my passport.... and guess what??? AGE VERIFICATION FAILED! So, I ask myself now.... what are people from other countries going to do? are we going to be limited because of our nationality? Our dollars are good enough to pay for our accounts, but our goverment's documents seem not to be as good as our green bills. So, what now? I have to pay full tier to use only part of the grid? Not that I really care, but it's just not fair The majority of residents are from other countries. Is our value less? What is going to happen? I would appreciate if a Linden could answer this ( In fact I think they SHOULD) They're implementing this They know their population They should have seen this BEFORE hiring that company, or BEFORE trying to force this. As I remember they opened the gates over a year ago, I didnt help them opening them, so, now, even if I do accept losing my PRIVACY, they CAN'T verify. (As I stated months ago, I cant see a goverment employee in my country losing time verifying my age so I can play a game in the internet)
What do you guys think? What do you Lindens are going to do? I simply refuse to go any further or to pay a complete fee ( around 600 US a month) for a game I can play only half. Is my tier being lowered? Is my account being lowered too? I didnt refuse to verify, its a matter of YOU NOT BEING ABLE TO DO IT.
Hope to get a reply. Thank you

Did you fill out the survey thingy? You can also call the 800 number listed on the verification screen. That's what I did - yesterday afternoon I couldn't verify, tried a few times, then I called and spoke with them. By late last night I was able to verify, so whatever problem they had with Canada, had been fixed.
It is in 'beta' testing after all, so you need to let them know what isn't working for what country, so they can fix it.

Remember, hon, it's only in beta now. You're being given the opportunity to test exactly so that they can eliminate problems like what you're having. There will be no negative consequences at the moment to not being age-verified ... you cannot yet mark a region inaccessible to unverified AVs.
That said, I myself have no intention to verify!

LL are not the people verifying you, so by all means inform them that there's a problem with the beta verification but it's Integrity Aristotle who can't verify you, not LL.

Sounds like Quova (or something similar) issues maybe ... where the IP address is being routed elsewhere and affecting the scoring.
Yes I am a smartarse I know. My SL is starting to be more and more like my rl job every day.

Yes, I filed out a survey after I tried. Still, I would like the questions answered, what will happen when this is not beta? As I said, I cant see a goverment employee in my country taking time to verify so I can play a game. EVERYTHING on this verification is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO fishy since day one! NOBODY has come up and said 2+2=4, they have been totally vague. Make long distance calls? well...... I dont know, I really dont want to spend a small fortune on a long distance call to get a recording for hours. I think the real problem we're dealing with is the lack of personal involment from lindens since a long time ago. We dont have the trust relationship we used to have a long time ago. They're like God now, you pray to Him, but you never know what His answer will be, or even if there's going to be an answer!. I'm really nervous about all this now. Yes, I know, somebody will say, get a real life I do have one, and this one is very important too, so, why not ask the Gods to come to earth and give direct answers about the different possibilities?
Please, any Linden, come and give straight answers on what will happen if my goverment wont verify!
Thank you
