* Parcel owners can ban users based on account settings

Is it true these ban lines for unverified only go up to 50m?

This is starting to look like an option for us. Put the Adult content at ground level and the PG at 70m. We really do not want to parcel the land.

Does anyone know if the landing point on a private island can be set above ground level?

Yes, Landing point can be set anywhere you like on your island.

I agree with this. Nonetheless, discrimination will be one of its byproducts.

They could put a Gorean slave (bike rack) by the door of the store.......Just a thought

To other Adult content providers out there.

Is a ban on unverified enough?

What I am wondering is if I really need to ban those that have never used their payment information. I would seriously prefer not to do this but I also do not like the idea of a lawsuit.

Or just rails and posts to leash them to...

*rolles eyes*

I love this new feature....!! Not only for the kids...but for alot of grifers who come to sims i have noticed with these new acounts...so woot love it thank you Lindens!!

I personally know several 'unverified' people who fall into category F there.

Welcomd to the Second Life Country Club. Please wait to see if your application has been approved.

cant sue you -- its not your fault

The only person to be held liable would be LL, not someone in the game

Your way of thinking is simply retarded. You cant be liable for anything, if a minor is entered into a "mature" game.

ya but "no payment info given" does not necessarily mean a minor

If you don't like the idea of a lawsuit you should talk to a goddamn lawyer rather than panicking on an internet forum. Good thing I don't want to buy your dumb sex balls or whatever crap you "adult content" people sell or I would be really annoyed.

Edit to add: I also know of at least one person who bought lindens on Lindex two weeks ago, who is still not listed as "Payment Info Used." You really might want to be careful with your ban stick or you may lose paying customers for your allegedly mature content.

There's an old saying for America.. "This is America, you don't have to be 'right' or 'win' to sue."

And frankly, being called into a lawsuit just because your name is on that shop that sold little Ellie her naughty bits is still costly to you. And to me, even though I don't sell mature stuff yet.

The cost of one lawsuit might get eaten by LL.. but the cost of a dozen? They're gonna share the cost by upping the price of premiums, which will up the prices of items in shops.

So, please, feel free to use the tool and cover your behinds, if you need.

Every business, property, sim owner has a group. A quick IM can solve the trouble with an addition to their group and access to the sim one hopes.
After the change to free open entry there is now some controls. For the business owner also there are catalog systems that allow the purchaser to browse in the comfort in the sandbox of their choice.

As for me. I am pleased that I will no longer need to concern my self with the actions of those who are useing the open system for abuse. We want to be open, we want to be friendly, we want to not have to worry about every avi blowing stuff up. Crashing sims.

Bang!!! Down come the doors.

In reality it will mean little. Just the few places that are tired will lock them down. Most will just leave them open in hope of a few lindens.

Casinos will be interesting to watch. With the camping armys out there it would be a goodly protection that there is a chair open for the player with the money. Rather than 30 accounts from 3 people farming the lindens. Not really in LL interest to stop or control those running 10+ accounts live as it helps the numbers. Impossible to prove.

It can and has happened before that people have been sued, or even threatened with jail, for distributing adult material to a minor even via a service that minors weren't supposed to be accessing.

Gotta love the American legal system, sue first, sue later, then ask questions as to why the kid was doing what he wasn't suppoed to be doing in the first place.

I have been here six or seven weeks, am probably listed as no payment info listed although I have set up verified paypal accounts, I abandoned CC years ago for a variety of business and personal reasons,(duh, guess what?) I have yet to go premium or rent land or even buy Lindens, However I certainly intend to, but being an artist in RL, income is variable and sometimes unperdictable, last year was the best year in my life financially but not this year so I am a little tentative about spending real world dollars right now, however SL is the best thing to happen to me emotionally(?), morally(?), and creatively(?),
in ten years, the warmth and prescence of those who have befriended me is beyond my ability to even express right now.....but thanks to the people I have met and their concern for me,the tremendous genourosity(?)of some store owners(BARE ROSE) I have personally spent 4000 to 5000 L that I have either won or been given ( I love to dance and I love portable volumetric shaders)and I have probably been given 3000L in gifts. So yes..I feel extremly lucky and thankful for the treatment I have recieved and I would urge you to extend people the benefit of doubt as they may be like me in their desire to be productive useful and loving neighbours.

Excuse me I am not in a panic. I am asking other Adult content providers what thier plans are and am trying to find the minimum level necessary.

I have vocally been opposed to this information even being in profiles. Unfortunately, LL left the info in and is basically passing the buck to content providers to police things. I think its absurd but am stuck with it. So I will thank you to please refrain from an attack on me or what I make when you do not know anything about me.

Since registration requires no real ID, thers a chance. I'm avoiding that chance entirely.
