What are you folks doing with your machines now?
Are you laready delting them or just wait until they are deleted by the Lindens??

Does it get you in trouble when you leave your machines on your land waiting for them to be deleted by the Lindens?
Or will they just delete them and that's it ....

Of course rerezzing the machines after that will bring you in trouble for sure lol

They only made a list with 'some' exemples of games that are not allowed. There is NO list with things/gales that IS allowed.

Unfortunately if they define an exact list of what is *not* allowed, by name, then people will just rename the same things, and it'll be a never ending chase.

I have no problem with the removal of gambling - but Tringo, Slingo etc require more skill than luck, and I feel should be ok - but in the end, it's LL's game, and we either comply with their rules, or not be here. It's that simple folks.

You could always pull out the scripts and use it as a table.

Can I ask a simple question? (I just did)


Could someone point me to a link as to "why" exactly LL decided to pull casinos? I've found a lot of community garble, and I will continue to search, but if someone knows why, or has a link, I'd like to read-up on it.

Thank you in advance.

((EDIT: I apologize, I've found some answers in policy regarding wagering. I don't know why I couldn't find it before))

I don't think you need to actually delete the machines. Just not use them. Or allow them to be used.

Comment out the script or put them in a warehouse in case something changes one day. The world constantly changes. Things have been prohibited, and later un-prohibited, throughout history.

Does it get you in trouble when you leave your machines on your land waiting for them to be deleted by the Lindens?


If you change your machines so that they aren't charging people money to play, with the aim of getting money out of them, then you can leave them on your land. If there's a wager involved you need to get them off your land.
