Simply log off if you can't keep an eye on your avi. Reported for insensitivity to those SL participants who are actually unable to speak. I suggest you choose your words more carefully. There are plenty of synonyms for stupid which are not gratuitously offensive, like idiotic, moronic, unintelligent, ignorant, dense, foolish, slow, simpleminded, vacuous, vapid, imbecilic, obtuse, doltish, thick, dim, half-witted, daft, dozy, cretinous, all of which you might wish to use to describe the OP's "friend" without insulting the vocally impaired. Wow. That's a whole lot of stuff there. While we're on the subject of foreknowledge or preconsideration of the background of other forum members, perhaps a look at the definition of the word "dumb" right underneath the version you've chosen to highlight is in order. Particular attention shoud be paid to the region in which this definition is a longstanding commonality. Considering the number of words used in other regions which have completely different meanings and intensities in America that are almost never accounted for, I would hope that this tendency to demand such nitpicking lest ye be tattled on is an exception rather than a rule. I can think of a word used in Britain to describe a "jerk" which is typically, again in Britain, used by a man talking to another man which if used in America in the presence of a woman will have her and many around hopping mad. I doubt I have to spell it out, but when the average English guy gets checked on that faux pas the reaction that I've gotten many times was for that very same word to be directed AT ME in the very American definition of itself. And, as alluded to earlier, I am in those instances indeed hopping mad. dumb dəm / adjective adjective: dumb ; comparative adjective: dumber ; superlative adjective: dumbest 1 . offensive (of a person) unable to speak, most typically because of congenital deafness.

You might also want to ask the wonderful Treasure and her friends here in SL what the North American element of VirtualAbility think of such language.

cykarushb Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 First off, dont necrobump. Secondly, UK rules dont apply to non UK players. 1 hour ago, Michaelatv Destiny said: The LL TOS may not apply, But many countries including the UK I live in would prosecute a forced rape even on a pixel avatar. Since Political correctness has crept into the Internet, thousands of Police forces around the globe are watching you online instead of being on the beat. The UK has all these laws on what you can and cant do sexually and in SL those do not apply further than anything involving underage avatars or users. If where you live considers the actions between virtual avatars in an entirely fictional world to be relevant to real world crimes then there is something severely wrong with your government. Think about that for a second, things you do that are technically imaginary, created in a world with no consequence, where everything is artificial, are somehow related to you possibly ending up in court. That is why people make fun of the UK. Your laws strip your freedoms. And further just on rape in second life, there is no way for someone to really rape you. You have to willingly interact with something for that to happen. They cant just suddenly strip you down and go to town whenever with no way for you to control it. In the scenario where you are tricked, you still have the ability at any time to do a few things: 1) Stand up or detach yourself from whatever you are on 2) Go somewhere else 3) Close SecondLife 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can toss this worry away. The whole idea of an AFK brothes is to let others use your avatar while you are away -- therefore, it is consenual, which mean 'not forced sex'. Actually, anyone that goes AFK on a sex bed in any location that is accessible by others, is by default giving consent. As to the rest, if you are truly worried, there is a big X in the upper right corner. Otherwise, SL is what it is. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syo Emerald Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 15 hours ago, Michaelatv Destiny said: I Just noticed this, and like to add, that Like Facebook who dont take seriously anything to do with online abuse. The LL TOS may not apply, But many countries including the UK I live in would prosecute a forced rape even on a pixel avatar. Since Political correctness has crept into the Internet, thousands of Police forces around the globe are watching you online instead of being on the beat. Also it is illegal here to watch or take part in ***** pixel sex or even doggy parts for sale or Psuedo Images of it especially if its a screenshot downloaded to your H/D, thats used for evidence if your computer is seized .....Also we have to keep away from market place adverts advertising schools outfits, BDSM photos in black and white, that say school on them,,young avatars, although you may want to be a kid, the law is very grey on what constituents an offence within the new laws. Anime & Manga is targeted regularly By cops now, even in America when once you could happily be an Anime fan like I was, and have nothing to fear, but that all changed after the BBC cover up of young teens abuse scandals. Buying adult Anime dolls models from japan with plastic panties half way down in provocative poses is illegal to from Ebay uk, because they are built to look like school girls with big Breasts. UK laws that depict an underage person whether pixel or a model & Being in possession of one of these is an offense. So although some USA laws and LL TOS Rules seem to be benign, legally in a lot of countries pixel rape and what I have outlined above is a criminal offence. This is one reason I avoid any AFK brothel sims, because the real law takes a dim view of these. It wont be long before we have another Sky news scandal breaking, like we did years ago, when Linden labs was accused of keeping secret kiddie playgrounds for perverts to play with, That didn't go away for months and led to a clamp down by LL or they would face some governments, (which the UK was one), to block Second life from British servers and residents. Until LL take the nasty stuff out of SL, many people are unaware what they doing or creating is borderline or an offense in the country they / you live in. None of this makes any sense.

DISORDARGGH Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I remember this avatar - his nickname was 'The Randy Rapist'. Bizarrely, he later became a SL pastor but was believed to also be running a music night for white nationalists. He is long gone, but rape on SL is no joke... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clivesteel Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 As with the repulsive 'CAN I BLACK UP AND RP ETHNIC MINORITIES' thread, this odious twaddle is only beneficial in giving Linden Lab a sure list of targets to PERMA-BAN for such sickening, reactionary views... "Huh huh, Beavis...can I play black man on the grid? Can I? CAN I?" "Shuddup Butthead...I'm busy rapin' teh womenzzz!" But sadly LL WON'T take any action, so all you "Blackface? Kewllll...Rape?

Solar Legion Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Linden lab will not take action because they have nothing to take action against where this thread's topic (and similar) are concerned. That is reality and if you cannot handle that then either stick to General rated parcels or cancel your account and move on. Perhaps seek out someone whose profession it is to listen to you and advise you concerning your thoughts, views and insecurities. Barring that; Get a grip.

Pussycat Catnap Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 There's no such thing as sex in SL. There's porn sure - look at my flickr gallery. I have never had sex in SL. I will say that with a straight face even after you go look at my gallery because what you will see there is a set of cartoon characters some people put into poses to make some hardcore art... But it's not real. It's just a video game cartoon. Now if somebody puts their cartoon onto something that hands off control of that cartoon to others there actually is a word for that: stupid. - Unless you meant to do it... which can be fun... Might still be stupid. I do a lot of stupid things in SL. I suspect I'm not alone in that regard. Some of it is actually fun. And yes, there is some stuff I flat out will not let my little cartoon do in SL, because the concept of what it represents freaks out real me. It still isn't real... but it also still freaks me out... Just like those poses on furniture I designed to trigger a rather different emotional response... not in that cartoon... but in us real people watching it. And yes... in moments when I really want to AFK somewhere and don't want anybody messing with my avatar, I don't sit on a sexbed... nor any other form of couple furniture... well, I might sit on a sexbed if it's made for only one avatar to be able to use it at a time. Because that's just funny to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
