Upcoming Changes for Adult Content: Answers to Questions

*steals a glance* Too bad. They don't know what they'll be missing.

You may want to hold your Kudos. Submitting a support ticket will allow you the chance to explain how this is impacting you. There isn't a guarantee. There will still be an inspection to identify those who qualify. However, if your business relies on Adult Content and would be negatively impacted, then there is nothing stopping you from submitting a ticket along with everyone else, explaining your need to move. We'll judge it on a case by case.

So if you don't have 'adult' land but live where you do because your good friend and neighbor does, your request to move will be denied?

On your support ticket, you can explain that you'd like to keep your Mainland parcel as well.

So only FIC need apply. Thanks for the clarification.

We're discussing the 9 days and yes, from some of the complex builds I've seen, 9 days does seem rather short in my opinion. However, I think 30 days is a bit too long. We're talking about it internally and I'll update you all when we have some type of answer.



Unfortunately, I doubt that this would happen. If we kept the move to 9 days, then there would be less economic impact then if the move was dragged out over 30.



That's really an issue for individual groups isn't it? What if there are multiple owners?




We will be quite conscious of where and how we place people. Even with First Come, First Served, we will consider placement, content and parcel size.

It doesn't matter if they use Lua, Perl, Tcl, Forth, LOGO, Interlisp-D, Smalltalk, Applescript, Fortran, Ratfor, SNOBOL, Speedbol, or Object-oriented CobolScript (no, I'm not making these up)

The point is not what language they use, the point is that they are restricting building scripting to city owners and developers approved by the city owners. Odds are you won't even be able to give someone a scripted object and have it run.

Does OpenSim have this?



Legally, I mean.

Is there room for growth of the Ursula Continent even beyond say the current PG and Mature Continents? In other words, what if the community shifts and the largest portion of the population desires to reside on Adult Mainland?

At the risk of annoying everyone, I don't think screaming at Blondin accomplishes anything. I believe the problem runs much deeper and that Blondin is the unfortunate messenger. While everyone here is angry and frustrated (myself included), the true power of this forum is to articulate well-reasoned arguments - to give Blondin some real ammunition that I'm sure he would be thrilled and relieved to print it and pass along to his boss. Think about it. How many of us have had bosses who weren't the sharpest knives in the drawer? I'll bet Blondin has similar thoughts on his way to work in the morning.

And trust LL to act in our best interests? I don't think so. I'm selling my mainland NOW, I'm not waiting. So are a lot of other people. I'm seeing more and more mainland, in prime locations, coming on the market. And prices are already starting to move down.

I told you so, I told you so, I told you so.

For a lot of people it won't be 9 days though. You may consider the bulk of your customers to be housebound shutins who should get a real life but as with a lot of things LL are completely wrong.

There are people who work 5-7 days a week and there are those who do things like go on holidays with their families.

For the latter, no insurance company is going to accept the cancellation of a holiday reason being that the service provider was so unreasonable that they wouldn't advise the move date until almost the last minute and that there would only be given a limited period before their goods became forfeit.

And if your property in SL "relies on adult content", but it's not a "business"?

There had better be. People who bought Mature Mainland with the expectation of being able to do Adult things with it when and if they want should automatically qualify for replacement land with the same ability for which they paid. LL is making some of their customers exactly that offer, so they're setting their own precedent. Hence, denying such a request by any other customer is a taking.

And if Blondin is actually a big fan on this project?

We've made tons of very reasonable comments already; we've pointed out huge, glaring holes in their plan; we've offered lots of alternatives that would better accomplish the goals LL said they're trying to accomplish.

/me isn't seeing LL doing much except plowing ahead with their original plan. What we say really doesn't seem to matter much..

Not that I'm saying we should take our (very justified) frustrations out on Blondin. Just that he doesn't seem any more interested in what we say that other Lindens do.

I have added an "Unanswered Questions" section to the Wiki page on Adult Content. It might be worthwhile adding your own unanswered questions there.

I agree... and funny thing, when i tried to respond to Blondins last post, all i get is *Forbidden*. WTF.

so lets see if this works....

And it didn't... i could preview this post, but when i tried to add my response to Blondin's post, i got *forbidden not allowed*

With that, it is clear, that any spontaneity is murdered and dead. I don't know if I build tomorrow 200+ adult positions into my interior, I don't know if I like to sell it or not, I don't know wich item I buy and rezz and use in the next second in game and I don't know what will come to my mind in the next minute, if I photograph a real life model or doing a painting on canvas and maybe scann it to upload it as adult-art for a gallery or as part of an interior concept, or what will happen while a creative process while mixing impressions and ideas in photoshop, or wich happening or event I like to start now, or tomorrow or next week, month or in a year...

This freedom is definitly gone now. But for that freedom we buyed mature land. To be able to do all or nothing, depending on moods and creativity.

There is in much cases nothing to explain, to review, to be seen case by case. It happens or not, ever the slogan "Your World. Your Imagination." in background.

It is impossible to explain or to review ideas, wich are not born or wich are born, but not visible to see and to touch so far.

Mature land gave that freedom, to be spontaneous and this is why everyone should have the right to swap *without questions*. It is just logical.

Excellent idea.

That's because they've put some SQL injection protection softare on the forums.. Avoid the word 'select'.

Naw, you can tell he's not happy about any of this. He's trying his best to keep a low profile and not get burned. I don't blame him. Who wants to get fired these days?

Apparently you get to fight it out with land speculators for a chance to buy an Adult 1024 for L$50,000.

Or stick with The New PG and wait for someone to AR you for changing your clothes.

Unless you're confident that the G-Team will make reasonable decisions and ignore frivolous ARs. Yeah, let me know how that goes.

Worth reposting.

blondin is LL, he is not a messenger, he is here as an LL employee representing LL's interests only, and he should feel ashamed of himself and LL, this is is lip service only.
and LL can say "well we listened to our residents and here is the deal..."
i don't have the slightest sympathy for him.


"Think about it. How many of us have had bosses who weren't the sharpest knives in the drawer?"

They were your bosses and on a higher wage than you and had the upper hand over you.
not the sharpest knifes?
sharper than you...

Naw, Blondin is a part-time guy who had the bad luck to get stuck with this forum. Didn't he say he only works two days a week? All he can do is shuttle between us and them until 'them' comes up with something solid.
