And this, right there, is the devil in the details. I don't have the time or the will anymore to go backtracking everything Blondin had posted, but I am quite sure that, when you get right down to it, he had not committed to *anything*. Nearly everything he said was non-committal. So, basically, going strictly by the new TOS, *nothing* Blondin had stated as "should be okay" can be trusted -- You do so at your account's peril!


To me this is it all in a nutshell and I have read every post and every blog here on the subject. A while ago when Blondin kept saying in my opinion etc. was when I realized that whatever he said should not be trusted, but to be taken with pinch of salt as it was plain to me at that point LL was just, as always, paying lip service to the customer base yet again.

That is just my personal opinion though and I would love to be proven wrong :)

I must say I find it interesting that this is not drawing more notice or outrage. I guess everyone is just burned out over the whole thing. And I guess that is part of the Linden Plan. Wear us down until we all just give up.

Well my love and I have rented a homestead last night, and I am in the process of moving all our things to the new land. I will set it to Adult and therefore protect us from the moral police.

I just feel sorry for all those people that will be caught up in this mess, most cannot afford to rent a lot on a private estate. This whole mess is just so very unfair to the residents that make SL what it is..

i doubt you will be. He did a lot of dancing around the issue whenever he was asked a tough question, who can forget his 'wink, wink, nudge,nudge", when he suggested all people had to do was play a few word games with their ads?

... and they seem to be even more vague than ever. (O.o)

http://secondlife.com/corporate/cs.php

If you ever doubted that COPA is dead ... "Linden Lab cannot absolutely control whether minors or adults gain unauthorized access to the Service. " ... Heh. (=_=)

So... Does it make more sense? Less? I'm still seeing TONS of missing information and, noting the links in the CS page, you still have to peel back layers of pages to eventually reach what you need to know. Or, simply not find an answer at all. (T_T)

On a side note... You can tell what LL is tired of enforcing in Waterhead! =^-^=



That sign is all hacked up and "Adult sounds" is crossed out.... Laziness on top of laziness. (^_^)y


I think the Lindens have gona over to the pathic side of life lol
Looks like the ARE going to be forcing out all adult stuff as the merdge the teen grid with us...

you know, your statement triggered a thought that I find really funny so I'm going to share..

Teens in that age bracket are pretty well still at the violent sociopath stage and not good at the tolerance thing.. I can't wait to see how they react to child avs..

ahh the gloriousness of second life. It always brings a smile to my face at least a couple of times a day.. :)

You know, I just had a startling revelation!

You see, in a very literal form, the Lindens have been telling the truth all along, that they have no plans to merge the teen grid with the Adult grid...









Instead, they are merging the Adult Grid with the Teen grid! Giving us, on the Adult Grid, Library skins with baked on underwear. Making more and more restrictive rules for most, if not all, of the Adult Grid.

So, once they ban adult activity everywhere but Zindra, they can take the rest of the Mainland and switch it over to the Teen Grid's settings, making a much larger "safe and happyland" that they can open to all ages...








Gods, I just hope there is nothing more to that idea than a lack of sufficient morning coffee on my part!
