So today I get an IM that I am going to get reported for playing uncensored rap music in my private sim named Los Altos. I decided to contact Live help and they assured me that uncensored rap was permitted in my private sim. Then the griever that reported me told me that they had spoken to a Linden and that in fact it might be a TOS violation to play unsencored music in my private sim. So i contacted this Linden and indeed was told that i may be in violation. So what do I do. I have had the sim for about a year and always played the same uncensored rap music. Do I take out the rap? And let a free acount get me in trouble, though i paid 1,250 for my sim and continue to pay 200 a month for the teir and up keep??

Hello Smerk!
First, it's important to clarify what you mean by "uncensored". If it's swearing and profanity on a Mature region--that's allowed. Even better yet, if you have some of the specific lyrics to the tracks in question so we can examine context closer. Also, when referring to behavioral unacceptability in Second Life, it's easier to refer to the Community Standards. I'm rather confused because you said someone sent you an IM, then later you say they're a "griever". You're perfectly within your Estate Owner rights to ban them if you wish from World > Region/Estate. We need firmer ground to stand on here. Instead of framing things fearfully, let's focus on the facts at hand and we can go from there. Please feel free to email me at [email]torley@lindenlab.com[/email] with complete and specific details. _____________________
