"What happens if I don’t flag my restricted content?"

I think that is a SENSIBLE idea and I hope to high heaven that it is true.

Most beds etc can be locked to owner only or group only.

Other poseballs can be protected from being used.

Security (sad that it is needed in the first place) can be set to immediately eject without warning. That was always seen as unfriendly but I have no qualms that not only is my skybox home on land set strictly to a few avatars (NONE of whom would be shocked by the contents), the security is brutal too.

Of course personally I think it's time to up groups available. Maybe that is the incentive for being premium, more groups, half of mine are used up on project groups.

I doubt it will be an issue for private residences.

Still you can't be too careful. A few weeks ago I added someone to one of my groups, a cheerful pleasant and articulate person with a reasonably normal avatar.

Two days later my neighbour told me she'd ejected that person - as a nine year old looking naked child avatar along with some guy - out of her bed.

I was mortified. She AR'd her, I AR'd her, ejected her from my group and banned her.

I think what I'm going to do is put my "adult" items in a very high skybox with high security and then pretty much sell everything else -- that reduces my financial exposure if things go badly at some stage. I mean I have very close friends in SL who are quite "adult" (ie, in their late 40s and early 50s) who have no intention whatsoever of verifying, so either I restrict my land and kiss those relationships goodbye or I leave me land unrestricted but manage the risk both by (1) having a lot less land so that if I do get zonked by SL or the AR vigilantes at some point my own financial exposure is minimal and (2) having anything adult on that land very elevated and very secure as you suggest.

Something like that happened to me as well. I acted the same... eject & ban... followed by a detailed AR. I cannot find the name anymore in search and what I always have understood that means LL has acted on that account.

I rent land, where my high secured skybox now is. I sold my mainland parcel and cut to no tier at the time that verification was first mentioned.

Let's hope so. It's hard to find people MUCH more broad minded than I am - whatever floats your boat if no harm is done to anyone. This tho ... shakes head.

My only real losses if this comes to pass in the worst case scenario, is the friendships i have here, that could not be maintained in other platforms.

It is bad enough

Like it says below... Faith is not a blind leap into nothing.. but a thoughtful walk in the light we have

I think that if we were going to be grandfathered in they wouldnt be having conseriege Resisdents testing the verification system.

The problem comes in when trying to define something just by what you see from panning your camera.

to a lot of people theres not much visual diference between a tiny busted petite adult woman avatar and a kid avatar.

Especially if that petite avatar is in an embrace with the typical SL male - Over 7 feet tall and gigantic.

Thus peopel could easily report "Age - Play" incidents that are not age play incidents at all.

I'd be mortified if I lost my friends just because of verification.

This is true in principal honey. Not in this particular case tho ... it's one thing to play cutie with pigtails and a teddy bear sitting on a swing and talking to mummy ... it's another to be playing hide the sausage with a teddy bear in your hand.

Sad but true.

It's not so much that, it's that if they do not wish to verify you're forced with either leaving your land unflagged or flagging your land and not having them visit you on it. It's forced one way or the other, it seems to me, so perhaps the best approach is to go unflagged, go sky high, and manage the AR risk that way.

Yeah - I understand - thats why I said "hope they were guilty"

Some people are going to make sure its a kid avatar before they send the AR,

And some people will assume the size difference alone means its a kid avatar and not make sure at all.

I personally don't think it will come to it, but I will go PG before I'd lose the ability to have my friends share my spaces.

While im sure people like Cherry and Morwen would be responsible about who they report for breaking the content restrictions - I have very little faith everyone will be.

I think these age play examples tie directly into the "Adult content" stuff. Since Linden Policy is basically "turn in your neighbor" you are left at the mercy of your neighbors and passers bys and their judgement.

Being open to investigation based on the "judgement" of anyone who walks by my land in SL doesnt leave me wth a lot of confidence in the system.

One solution for ground or low level unflagged content could be to have a central unflagged sub-parcel surrounded by a thin perimeter barrier of flagged sub-parcel.
No unverified could walk or fly in. They would have to TP .

It is not clear how the blocking of unverified from restricted parcels will be implemented.
If like ban-lines, then someone could fly in at high altitude, but could be blocked from descending into the unflagged central parcel by an aggressive security system waiting at a suitable altitude.
If the blocking was not limited by height, then TP would be the only way in.
The unflagged parcel landing point could be set to a small platform above the security lsystem to stop the "determinedly inadvertent" from TPing in off the map

Interesting, but sounds a bit complicated and also specifically designed to bend the rules. Of course the alternative is just to violate the rules outright, so it bears some consideration.
