I guess no one knows. I don't mind the ads but I think its sort of ridiculous to have rule but not enforce it. I saw this nude photo in ads reccently of woman selling panties. She has right to do that but I thought TOS said Pg only ads. Yet I keep seeing ones that use very adult language and images. The thing is there no way to report ads that do that either unless I am mistaken. I find it broadly offensive to have rules but no real way of enforcing them or send mix messages about those rules. . Its like we allow people to sale Lindens on Ebay but if you buy them we can remove them from you because the person who selling on Ebay did so illegally. I don't get it. Any understand why this is happening?

Did she forget to put on the panties she is selling before making the snapshot? :)

Actually she was selling dirty panties. Perhaps she wasn't wearing them because they were so dirty they walked away by themselves. LOL
But seriously who would want to buy dirty panties and is there a big market in SL for this? How would are avatars know if they are clean or dirty? Because I haven't noticed anywhere to washing my avatars clothing, not even dry cleaner.

there are a few laundrymats around in sl

its pretty funny

cuz most require you wear the clothing while gettin into the washing and drying machine since you can not remove clothing and place it into a machine your whole avatar gets cleaned!

The Lindens don't find them "broadly offensive."

Thanks I hadn't thought about screenshots and the AR thing but then I don't if it would matter in long run.
I guess no one considers slang terms for sexual promiscousness, SL or nudity in advertising is pg and such broadly offensive that works for then why bother.
But I like to know more about those laundry matts? Does the avatar blow bubbles afterwards? LOL
There is so much to see and its often hard to find places I would like to see because of how search works.
Wish there was a better way to find things. Sometimes though I do find amusing things when extremely bored in search classified the most interesting was this one guy who advertising a job that required RL information, background check because it involved personal assistant going over his account transactions. I thought to myself hmm if they are looking at his account transactions wouldn't they need his password and wouldn't that be breaking the TOS? Looked further in his profile he was advertising for security position, he required his employes to have real life military experience. I thought to myself why does the indivuals need real life military experience is he hiring soliders for virtual war?
