Lets suppose one is in a library, or a nightclub, or a public venue with PC access.
How could one enable anyone to use SL, communicate with other " Open Source" providors of web access.?
One not only needs a predefined avatar, but defined age and content, plus a means to login on that basis, and use a public accessible avatar.
Initially i would go the adult entry route only, and that would need the overall user`s declared acceptance.. for example, imagine a nightclub enabled table PC access, The nightclub owner defines who can enter such clubs as adults..
Anyone any contribution to such a possibility?
myself its the adult entry only i would be curious in, since i can imagine folks able to communicate by avatar on a pc link, from point to point in a predefined location, for example the SL version of such a nightclub., in effect live but remote communication on demand in the same space.. such a possibility could include the performers, like the DJ.. etc..
?

Just thinking about that already suggests the payment entry method, by debit card, a predined time online by payment ascribed and determined and traceable to the user.
lets suppose, A Person, sitting at table 6 with friends decides to see what SL can offer.
A person can login only by debit card, or some traceable login method..
A Person chooses from a known and preset avatar list updated, male/ female A person is that avatar on SL for the payment time, only able to move in SL in that location..
?
Lets suppose that A Person is drunk, not sociable and is harm intent.. What could be done to protect other users and trace A Person?
Paypal can accept known debit card user payments.., so i see that possibility.. , the problem might be that A Person isnt the payer, A User might have the payment method and let A Person use it.. The responsibility becomes that of A User, not A Person..even though A Person is determined to abuse A Users gift.. A User can deny knowledge, even though A User is still responsible and will be held so.
Its a deep subject..
I would like to see what might be possible though.

Somebody tried something like this once...created an avatar and then published the login password so the public could access it.
Didn't last too long.

I understand Lindall, and i know of a uk public house that enabled SL access.. i used to venture its SL site often till it closed. But just because someone has a bad time doesnt mean that its not worthwhile.. 80 people a day die driving cars in the uk.. but we still use them  Everyone takes a driving test... Still accidents happen. I could go on and on saying, do this, dont do this ... Because? I can take precautions, but still the unforseen will occur.. its why hospitals exist..  So.. even though some folks will say its not worthwhile..those who think it is.. push boundaries.. such determination took us to the Moon, made planes fly faster than the speed of sound,et al  i push boundaries, i seek limits and explore them.. i find new things.... SL needs to push boundaries or it will be overtaken.. Trees grow everywhere.

if you are just talking about table to table in the same bar you could use opensim and not interface with LL at all. No problems.

From: someone 80 people a day die driving cars in the uk.. 8 (eight) people a day, not 80! The annual total for road deaths in Britain for 2008 is 2943. I just checked the figure on the net. As well as people driving cars, that includes pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, car passengers, drivers and passengers of lorries and buses. That was actually the lowest death toll on British roads since 1926. The worst year was 1966, when 7985 people died on our roads.
