I have land which is PG so therefore I cant do anything overtly sexual, but two doors away(less than 50 metres) the land becomes Mature which means you can screw a pig if you so desire lol. IMO that is ridiculous. It seems that PG land is just a way to placate the moral minority!
Heavens above what if one of these moral crusaders were to step outside and look up the road, they might be flabbergasted.
I mean what is PG anyway, doesnt it stand for parental guidance? But SL ask for ID which means you need to be over 18.

Simple solution here.
Sell your land, which is normally cheaper cos it is not Mature. Buy in a Mature area.
Case closed.
It was more than you wouldn't get a squillion Casinos and strip joints in PG so people who wanted a PRETTY place without blight on the landscape could have a home without something annoying next door. That was the hope anyway.
Bilbo is right, you very rarely see much in Mature areas anyway but I think most people like the idea that it is their choice.

Something is going to have to change. Either they are going to have to lump all mature sims together or disable the ability to move your camera, if possible. Without one of those two there would be absolutely no point in having age verification which we're told is on it's way.
I don't know what they are going to do, but I have to believe they have some type of plan. They almost have me skeptical enough to think they don't, but not yet.

Shep, mature PG at times can be very misleading. Because i seen alot of sexually active people in their own PG sim as in muture. If your in your own home in a home etc (inclosed) then there shouldnt be any issue. As long as its hidden from others ( peeking in with the camera doesnt matter and doesnt break TOS ). I wish LLABs would just do away with land types mature and PG. I see alot of freebie island with PG and they have nakied avies running around and naked skin vendors around..........

Yep, make all regions PG, then open "XXX" regions that you have to pay a premium to buy land on, AND be age verified to own land on and/or access. Those that want the pixel sex can then go there out of the way and leave the rest of Second Life to those of us who are here to enjoy ourselves. Broccoli

Broccoli Its mind shattering that people are willing to even pay for such. Just for Pixel sex? We need so thing to change how things with getting or controling under age users on sl. Addition.......................... I believe there is another VR world that you need to by a pass to beable to have pixel sex. Maybe LLAbs should learn from them.

Broccoli Damn right Broccoli, those people having pixel sex aren't enjoying themselves. Next I want a gulag......errr separate area for those who role play Science Fiction. Nothing worse when I am rezzing my plywood boxes than seeing some Star Trek geek using his lightsaber. I mean how can I enjoy rezzing my plywood boxes and deleting them with Darth Vader talking in Klingon the next plot over? And what about those furries? Where I come from we keep animals in the barn, we don't let them buy houses and wear clothes. We also have a severe infestation of D&D nerds. We can send them back to WOW. Solves that problem pretty quick. Lindens, I have a new motto for you. "Your World, Broccoli's Imagination" You can send the check to.........

Broccoli Ugh... How about they just make a seperate PG continent where you and people like you (a vast /MINORITY/ BTW) can go and leave the rest of us ("who are here to enjoy ourselves"  alone. Maybe even a seperate grid altogeather ala the teen grid. I will admit that your suggestion would make gobs of cash for LL, or a mass exodus that would kill it! [edit] BTW I do agree that PG and Mature land next door to each other makes no sense at all. That's one of about 8 major points that make age verification a complete waste of time as it has been currently explained to us. And possibly one reason is still has not been iimlemented. I have no idea how they could possibly un mix PG and Mature land at this point either without upsetting and moving atleast half the mainland around, the "problem" has grown to an unimaginable size in the last couple of years.
