Which Should be Least Tolerated in Second Life?

Since I can only choose one and being a mom of 2 daughters, I chose Age Play. Yes, I understand that the RL person behind the child avatar is not really a child (at least we hope) but this kind of role play is very disgusting to me and I wish it wasn't tolerated by anyone.

Too many to chose from........But you get the point across. Finally something worth reading on the forums.

Most child molesters have trouble with sexual relationships that require consent. You can't have a sexual relationship with someone in SL without their consent. I don't see the "age play" as being similar to child molestation at all and I don't think that people who engage in "age play" in SL are condoning child molestation. I don't think the age play is much different than consenting adults who like to wear diapers during sex play in real life. Do you people who are against age play in sl think that wearing diapers during sexual encounters should be illegal in real life?

Fatphobia. (Only it doesn't seem to be a problem in SL. Still, it would be least tolerated by us cushiony folk.)

Who's really asking this question?

Age play doesn't necessarily mean sex, as far as I know. While I find it (and infantalism) somewhat creepy, live and let live.

Whoa, who said child porn? I wasn't even aware that was a choice?

Is this a choose your own conclusion adventure thread? I think I missed that part.

Sorry, it is Friday, and I am a wee bit silly. This sentence made me laugh.

Legal stuff = good
Illegal/harmful/dangerous/toxic/empty-calorie stuff = bad

I agree with you on this.. I cant get children but I love them.. Brother have two.. and I see how vulnerable they are.. so innocent.. and shall have time to be that to...

Another thing are people that get money from selling/get an income from doing escort services in al world (including SL).. ... and the sex tracking* (maybe wrong word but,, try to u-stand if so - pls) - close to slavery in real life..

*promise a wonderful life and then sell them as girls and boys to - for sex..

If this was directed toward me, I'm the one really asking it. Are you implying you think I'm an alt? If people are thinking I'm someone's alt, that would explain why nobody seems to be responding to any of my comments. Not that it bothers me too much - if I'm not accepted here I'll just move on with my life and still be happy.

I agree totally with this one It's ok though we can laugh at them when they freeze to death during the coming ice age.


As for everything else in this threat Griefing and IP theft are the two that irk me the rest, as long I don't have to see it, and it's between consenting adults I couldn't care less. I reserve the right to think you're a bit touched in the head, but that's my personal opinion and I keep it to myself.

Oh no, you can troll someone while being entirely pleasant... they may not even know they're being trolled for ages. Just wear a sexy female av and act lost and guys will put up with anything.

*sticks you in a tiny box with fluffy teddy bear that hugs you and says, "I love you" over and over.*

*Makes sure the box is much more secure than before with much Duct tape.*

*sets a speaker with a calm speaking 1, 2,3 and then a loud screaming 5 outside the box*

You ask for it, you get it. Keep it up and I'll chain you to the gate of Heaven to explain why God is out fishing.

How is there a personal attack, when groups of all sorts are listed. Your name was not made as an option of what could not be tolerated. I personally have no problem with Goreans, and I have role played as both a slave and a Master myself. You can't truly believe that no one will have any problems with Goreans. Goreans practice a form of slavery, and the life style puts men on a higher status level. We all know that slavery and men being considered better than women are both things that should be ended in real life. Gorean could be a choice or a sexual fantasy or just role play, fine, but there is something wrong with both the practice of slavery and the degrading of women. I've also role played being a vampire that killed, but I wouldn't act all suprised if a few people had a problem with even the pretending of drinking someone's blood till they died. I hope the "Goreans" in real life aren't practicing true slavery, which I doubt they are, much like the "vampires" in real life don't kill like they do in the myths that have grown around them. You have to admit that when you use the term slavery; people will find a problem with what you are doing. You have to admit when you even pretend women have a lesser status than a man, people are going to have a problem with it. There are things wrong with Gor, and they are obvious.

Before you abuse report me, I was responding to the validity of your statement that a personal attack was made, and was discussing the validity of the idea that Gor is something without problems. Neither of these things are about a specific problem with you. It is just a response to your comments on the subject.

I consider this a personal attack on me and have reported it as such and requested that this thread be deleted! Your use of the word "the" repeatedly clearly points the finger directly at me and the group I'm a part of, which also contains the word "the"... and I won't stand by idly while you perjure us!

HEATHEN!

It is an opinion poll and is useful for seeing what the general trend of the viewers is. I'm a furry but you don't see me demanding the poll be taken down. I admit I am curious to see how the votes will tally up for all the categories.

Try working for a government entity that would fire you under their special "moral turpitude clause" if they find out you are gay or pagan. *sigh* I so hate the citizens of this country at times. People can't just let other people live their lives without sticking their personal religious beliefs in. I want a bumpersticker that says "God! Please save me from your followers!".

don't you mean "deleated"?

Ah, just realised that difference as well, as I will admit to doing a fair bit of tolling, never on SL, but occasionally just when I'm bored and want to "set off" a known flame igniter. *wishes he can change his vote*

And really, if you are a member of one of the above groups, we are not attacking you personally. Unless you are a griefer, then we sort of are, since they the only group that actually affects other people, and not just themselves.

Ho hum I will ignore all of the little hurt feelings in this thread and get right to the meat of the matter. I think that any behavior that might possibly offend another person should be outlawed in SL. That includes everything on that list plus ugly builds, AO on/off, talking genitals, poor personal hygiene, hideous fashions blah blah blah.

I might even go as far as to suggest that all emotion also be banned as it leads to that thing that some people call drama. It would be a finer world if we all just stood there in our perfect clothes and never uttered a word.

I'd like to vote for Sanctimonious Fuckwits, like the "mothers against age play", or homophobes who want to ban same-sex poseballs, or whatever. However, since that wasn't on there, I chose Goreans.

Slavery and misogyny is bad enough--and that anyone admits to liking either in the 21st century is seriously disturbing. But emulating such a terrible writer... What the hell is wrong with you freaks? On the bright side, the Goreans will eventually die out, since Norman's books always lose money and he can't get published anymore. The free market takes a while to correct some problems, but it gets there in the end.

Intriguing.

this is exactly how i feel litterly

LOL, this will sound circular - but for my .02 cents the real thing that should not be tolerated is "intolerance", that is - when people's opinions take the form of action directed towards a person or group. I suppose that "Griefing" would have been a short answer, but looking at so many of the other choices, intolerance of others seems to lie at the root.

People all have differing opinions, and SL is a "big tent". If someone is so agitated by the actions or beliefs of another Resident, there are PLENTY of other places to go where one will not be confronted with them. Unfortunately, there are still those who feel the need to "convert" and "confront" others they disagree with - and then the fun begins.

Love to everybody this Holiday season!
