If you venture over to Nimrod Yaffle you can now bet on real world sporting events, and you thought online gambling was illegal.  NOT at the new Nimrod Yaffle parcel which is also full of dead traffic from campers. How is this not illegal and a major concern for LL since I can convert RW dollars to Lindens then bet on RW sporting events and then convert my winnings back to RW dollars?! This completely circumvents the new laws prohibiting online gambling. Any response LL?
