Sex is next
08-13-2007 14:02
Sex is next.
Since the L$ is now real money
And
PayPal + Sex = NO NO
Then
The writing is on the wall. We know who pulls LL's strings now. The L$ HAS become real, it is no longer our world our imagination, the motto needs to be changed (I have some suggestions).
I'm only sorry I wasn't vocal when others before were GOMed. I would cite a famous german poem but it's been cited enough and I'm just as guilty.
Say goodbye to escorts and cam shows and stripper clubs and snap on toys ... ok say good bye to any of the forementioned that are not FREE. no I'm not into any of that sex stuff but many were not into simulated games of chance and they didn't care. People only care about thier own particular interests and it's easy to pick off one group at a time when no one supports each other.
L$ will be divorced from sex and sex will be free and all those whose interest in sex and L$ or have invested in it will be left holding the bag. LL does not care about it's residents nor it's groups and as an idividual cares NOTHING. LL only cares about LL.
I understand the changes, I disagree with the execution of the changes. LL doesn't have any respect for it's own community otherwise LL would be more graceful in how it chose to grow up.
I give it less then a year.

From: Jezebella Desmoulins But none of the hardcore gamblers want to just play the games. The games are no "fun" to them unless there's the risk of losing big money. Yes, but you are allowed to lose as much as you like, it's just when you Win, you wouldn't be allowed to Claim it in RL. Angel. |

for PayPal sex is not simply the act, I doubt anyone ever paid a RL hooker for RL sex through PayPal, we are talking about pornographic materials, representations, pixels even == SL
I am not half right.

From: Ricky Piek just simply you can only take out of the game what you put in it and for tier fees and memberships then theres no profit so to say and you can be as rich as you wanna be in sl which is suppose to be a game so that would keep it a game. just a thought That would kill the incentive for virtually all content creation in SL, while doing nothing at all to make it safer for LL to allow anything that resembles gambling to exist in SL. If you're hooked on gambling, go to a RL casino, where the play is licensed and regulated. Don't play on-line gambling ANYWHERE, unless you like losing lots of money and having zero chance of getting any of it back.

Reitsuki Kojima,
I'm sorry that stating the obvious fact that banning the transfer of L$ for anything sexually related equates to the sky is falling in your mind. You must have a lot riding on paying for sex in SL?
I guess you'll have to find it free now?

First, I don't buy your premise that sex is next. However, even if LL were to ban escorting I'd personally be rather pleased as I find the idea of paying for virtual sex patently absurd and seriously wonder just how utterly socially inept most of the "johns" are. I'm not exactly very smooth (ask anyone) but back in my single days finding attractive, interesting partners (yes, for free, OMGZ!) wasn't exactly hard at all.

Well "Your world your imagination" is certainly out the door now. Anyone else is welcome to suggest a new slogan. I think mine is spot on.
But go on, don't stand up for the sex industry, just wait until yours is affected and we'll all be ears then. Who's left that is.

Can you give me a URL to the Lithuanian forum? I'm sure being Lithuanian is against the law in some country or another.

If Chilly thoughts are correct about Sex and Escorts whats left? A There.com? Philip Linden said during his townhall Meeting Sex would be takeout sometime (2005 era). But Really is it possible? Unlikey because of the products related to Sex. The cost of of bring down Sex and its related industries just doesnt make sence.
