it's entirely possible that the place that is set as your homeplace was once not a sex shop... that's all I can think of as to how it happened and you may have accidentally set a home place. To get rid of it, go some place innocuous and try to set that place as your home (some places won't allow it, I think, which is why I say try :)) Hope this helps you.

oooo not sure about that - have you tried asking Live Help? It's possible they can answer your question about that :)

Once you leave Help Island, you are not generally supposed to be able to go back.

When you leave Help Island, the place you first enter becomes your Home, I believe.

It appears we can now set our Home spots to any mainland Infohub, or land we own or that is owned by a group that we are a member of.

There is an option in preferences that allows you to enter the world at program start to either your home spot or the location you were at when you last exited the program.

Home spots have been known to get set wrong and need some Linden attention. If Live Help doesn't produce results, you can contact [email]support@secondlife.com[/email] or call the toll free support number.

Your home position also seems to remain on your PREVIOUSLY owned land too. I forgot this, played around in a combat sim, died and teleported into the new landowner's hottub. This might be something they could fix, (ie. reset to nearest infohub or something.)
