From: Kator Bergson way back when I took my gf at the time for a "walk" and people were horrified looking at me (well 90% of them were doing the WTF face) and I just smiled and waved and walked right past them. Did they say anything? No. Did they try to enforce thier opinions on me? No. and I thank them for it. May I ask, did you stand near a group of shoppers and humiliate her in public, using them as an audience? If so, I might have said something, depending on how you were doing it. Simply having someone in chains of a leash isn't something that I *prefer*, but it's also none of my business. It is the crass and abusive attitude of the male, and the humiliation of the lady that sets me off. If either of those elements is missing, or the couple uses IM for their chat, I don't have a problem, although I must admit, it *does* make me uncomfortable and tense- as if I'm waiting for it to turn into a "situation" -V-

Searching for "women" really isn't that bad, surprisingly. You get
Jaquelines Sculpted Penis & Pussy & Sex Poses & more...
and
I :::::::::::: PENIS & PUSSY WORLD ::::::::::::I
but they are a few pages in.

Instead of going to the trouble LL is going to, how about just letting users flag their accounts in the viewer as PG or mature? Put in a check box that says "I don't mind seeing mature content".
Don't check the "Mature" box on your account, and your avatar will be prevented from entering mature regions.
If there's a region you want to go to that's mature, but doesn't actually have anything offensive to you in it, uncheck the box and go on in.
No one has to worry about moving their business, and the potential loss of customers will be far less significant than the current plan.
As for mature material appearing in PG areas, there are already mechanisms in place to deal with that through the current abuse reporting system.
The only draback is, LL will have to find something else to do with those vacent Openspace servers. Ursula can be Nautilus II. Let the land flipping begin.

None of this matters as much as the extreme minority of people that don't like the high quality competition coming in to Second Life and eroding the businesses of the obsolete. This extreme minority appears to be hammering LL to take away user created content so only the chosen few sycophants can sell content in Second Life. These few are what amounts to the PN who are now hammering LL with such attacks to point out the only solution to all of Linden Labs issues is to remove the build tool from the user interface. Note that the real driver behind this would be whoever is running a third party grid that would suddenly benefit from the exodus. A grid who's owners provide monetary support to the places that promote griefers who are openly working to have user created content removed from Second Life.
Why do I suspect the new version of the viewer will not have the build tool in it anymore? Could it be that anytime this question is raised LL ignores it and will not answer it?
Say what you want about adult content but this issue is zilch compared to the issues rolling down the turnpike towards you.
Enjoy it while you can.

From: Kara Spengler A large problem with the PG continent idea is it would allow people on the current mainland to move there rather than it all being welcome areas/linden land/corp land. True, you would need that for the prudes, but how to tell them from every other PG resident? You could grandfather the current residents, but what about future ones? As long as the prudes abide by the ursual TOS and keep the place PG, why would LL *care* if they move? the place isn't going to look attractive to the "suits" unless it's populated is it? and why would reporters write about a corporate ghost town? Oh yes, the move there would have to be open and voluntary- available to all as long as they abide by the PG rating. -V-

From: Nany Kayo FREE SEX ORGY ROOM DANCE CLUB Neva Naughty Sex Furniture [...] The problem is, they make SL look like a brothel. And the new "Adult" policy won't have any effect on this. You don't need this new policy, you need Linden Labs to actually enforce their existing policies.

From: Robert Graf A large percentage of the SL User base is unaware of the upcoming Adult Content changes. In the last week I have received 2 LL surveys on how my user experience is when logging in. Its obvious they could be doing the same with a message about the changes with a link to this forum. This will affect everyone. Mainland or Private Estates. Paid or Free Accounts. Landowners/Non-landowners. Interesting that they choose not to inform everyone so more voices can be heard and that everyone understands just exactly what is coming down the road. Robert, I agree. SL could be informing and/or surveying everyone right now. They have chosen not to. It disturbs me. From: Wynochee LeShelle LL should stop this stupid rating campaign immediatly and start to be: Modern and intelligent. This thing here IS 18+ the number 18+ is all what we need and ready, like millions and billions of things on earth are 18+. But ok, we know, we cannot come to them with intellect and intelligence and education and knowledge and experience and logic. For unknown reasons, this works not for them and they are unable to say something to intelligent analyses and questions and educated life experienced hints. Some started here to bring in cultural, biological, sociological, philosophical, political, media, art, anthropological and whatever science reasons to offer to them. To help them to get an overview about the fact that they are on the totaly wrong path. And? Nothing. Management went into cocoon-mode, while we do explaining them the world, nature, life and the universe...(lol). 3000+ people, soon 4000+ and until summer maybe the whole population in here asked them so far: what is 1 + 1? If a Linden pops up, we get then answers like: "Hmmmm? 1 + 1? Let me think. Could be 3? Or maybe 1 and a half? Or 4? What would you suggest?" This whole US driven rating system is pure nonsense and totaly unnatural... If I look out of the window in summers, I can see sometimes into other apartments in summers, while all windows vis a vis are open... And I do not abuse report what I see there, because it is nice  and all is 18+ hahahaha and if I would report it, NO police in no city would take notice of that, they would think I would be crazy to report normal life. Because why? Because the whole planet is an adult system if you want to see it so. From oceans grounds up to the top of Himalaya. Nature has no ratings. It is just as it is. ... never visit a zoo with your kids, if you have some. To much open visible genitals there und sometimes: sex. ... avoid zoos. Because there is a dangerous thing going on: life! Very adult life. Often these creatures eating each other, especially outside of zoos in savanna and jungle! Imagine that! And a spider-mum eats the father of her chiildren after they had: spider-sex! So, again: never visit a zoo, if you want not to be outet as being complete audacious and bigot. This said, the hundred+ time again. Will you learn something from that? No, or? Thank you, Wynochee. It has struck me again, that even writers in this forum who are using English as a second language, are still writing more rationally and communicatively, than the Linden staff.

From: Nany Kayo MONYs FREE SEX NUDE BEACH - FKK NAKED 3SOME ORGY FUCK
free sex nude beach escorts 3some orgy FKK naked freebies fuck suck blowjob BJ bukkake,escort dancer slut,bitch,whore,nude,naked,woman,women,pussy,tits,cock ...
That's what you get when you search for "beach" with Include Mature content unchecked.
FREE SEX ORGY ROOM DANCE CLUB Neva Naughty Sex Furniture
Freebies,Money,Jobs,Help,New,Porn,Dancers,Strippers,Newbies,Gifts,Urban Grunge,Menu Furniture,MoCap Animations,Living Room,Bedroom,Bathroom,Kitchen,Outdoor,Club ...
There is the one on the first page of search results for "furniture" with Include Mature content unchecked.
You probably don't need to ask what happens if you search for "rug" or "pose". BTW, this will not change a lot, Nany, and the problem could be solved with a more reliable way of making some words not appearing in the search feature. But until which level ? Because, you will often see sex bed, and "erotic furniture" and, as it is SL , the shop owners have to let people experiment with pose balls. So, if everything which can be for "adult" (sex is legal between people of 14 or 16 in most countries) have to be removed in a "censored by money access" land, all shops will close, except the tree shop and zyngo trash, may be ... and that the same for all skins, because if you want to buy one, you need to see what it look. As it just have been pointed out, Linden have already planned their new release for june, so it's over, and this thread is useless. We will just have to move elsewhere, but not on Second Life, for all european people and others who can't have or give a credit card number . SL is loosing almost 100 regions a week for now. It will lost many more, and the worst thing for me is that all people who really take care for now when playing adult game, as pointed out by Sredni Eel, will not be so regardant , cautious, in a sex only land... AND that is really the WORST : just think to something : if you have 18, and yes, you have been verified, IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING !!! For now, people pay attention to others, even when they are over 18, believe an old 50 woman. But that will unfornutately change, when we will be in a kind of Reserve , remember that . Linden decision is a RL decision, and it will impact on a lot of users and business . and also on the adult way of being in Sl . All of that to just get more "Payment info used"  and to please a minority who scream so much that it seem a majority.

Yeah search is not filtered at the moment but once it turns to ADULT REGIONS the adult parcels SHOULD only show on search if your in a ADULT REGION so if your on a mature sim you wont see the adult listing same for searching from a pg sim well thats the best way but i guess there would have to be a adult searching hub created so you can choose to teleport to adult to search whats there as we know flags are no good carpet bans are better but thats the only way to filter search if your not verified to go to adult search hub you carnt TP to see whats there the mind boggles lol  also dont forget the viewer client is opensourced so building filters in the viewer wont really work people may get around that by making custom ones well just a thought

I think the plan is to prohibit the vendors from advertising at all to anyone who is not verified with permission to show adult content. It won't matter what search words they use. Only certain people will see the ads.

I'll make you one for 50L$. I think the plan to restrict advertising by the sex trade is the way to go. Just cut them off. If they want to advertise dish racks or stereo racks, they can get another account, rent a shop somewhere on a non-adult parcel.

From: Nany Kayo Yeah, you said that. BTW, don't search for "rack" unless you want (...)
You can put every search listing you found, it's not in the topic . We could all agree that the search could be a little more sensitive on some words, like google have done for images. But why do you see these shops or club on the top : because search results are by default sorted by the name ov visits: Yes, that is the adult content who run SL, for a big big part . And all that business realay on a lot of people which don't have a payment info.. Believe me, as others here, it's not my first avatar on Sl, i'm in the dom/sub way of life, and ,looking at every people i have meet, only a few one, about , 10 %, have a payment info... That what make SL possible. (sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language)

From: Minx Eisenhart (from SL's TOS  Intolerance Combating intolerance is a cornerstone of Second Life's Community Standards. Actions that marginalize, belittle, or defame individuals or groups inhibit the satisfying exchange of ideas and diminish the Second Life community as whole. From: Bambi Newall Isn't it actions that marginalize, belittle, or defame individuals or groups inhibit the satisfying exchange of ideasW? Doesn't it diminish the Second Life community as whole when you are forced to go underground? Bambi, I have to agree with you. The Lindens' intention to move Sexuality to blocked areas that Unverified avatars cannot visit, is indeed marginalization. It marginalizes the creators of Sexual material, and it marginalizes the Unverifieds and the sexual aspects of their personalities/identities.

From: Agnetha Vuckovic I cannot believe people are even having any of these discussions, when as things stand the crap SL age verification system DOES NOT WORK for anyone outside of the USA.
How many times does this have to be pointed out in this blog ????
This whole situation is a FARCICAL JOKE......as some sites are already switching on age verification in anticipation of changes.....and thus forcing people to try to use a 'Beta' age verification system that doesn't work.
Lindens.....GET YOUR ASS IN GEAR !!! Why are you even discussing changes when the mechanisms to implement them don't even work yet ?? I will say this again, I am European, british ex pat in Holland, both me and my wife who is Dutch age verified when it started and again last week when we verified the alts using our respective country's passports without any problems, apart from my address details which i had to use my old UK one as my passport address hasn't changed yet until i renew it in a few years time. Now i understand it doesn't work for everyone but please don't say it doesn't work for anyone as clearly it does
