Shockwave Yareach 30 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Um, what? I fail to understand what you want us to discuss here. Link to post Share on other sites

Venus Petrov 333 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I think this is the public version of a combo of the LBGTI and 'Mature' forums that was discussed at yesterday's Community Tools User Group meeting. Link to post Share on other sites

Correct Venus. The board is public and G rated, abides by the guidelines and all of that of course too Link to post Share on other sites
Darrius Gothly 709 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 It was my "coup de grace" comment that did it .. huh? ROFL! Thank you Lexie. Link to post Share on other sites

Correct Venus. The board is public and G rated, abides by the gudelines and all of that of course too Hmm, tries to figure out which *guideline* my OP to this new forum 'violated'? It was SL related. It was G rated. It was about relationships. Link to post Share on other sites
Scylla Rhiadra 29,166 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 To judge from the current content in this forum, I think it should be renamed the "OPs by Scylla Rhiadra (and Ann Otoole) Forum." Colour ME surprised! Link to post Share on other sites
Ciaran Laval 27 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Have some patience, Lexie and the team are trying their best here. Link to post Share on other sites

Dresden Ceriano 133 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Wow, mark me down as impressed. This seems a logical solution (which some think LL is incapable of). A forum where everyone can participate, it's not hidden, you don't have to be age verified and doesn't single anyone out. Way to go! But, let me tell you, the name... Identity and Relationships... meh. I could live with it, but how about something catchier like Lifestyles and Relationships. Means the same thing really... it just sounds better. Just a thought. Thanks... Dres Link to post Share on other sites

Very reasonable solution to what is (and has been) a very sticky proposition. Link to post Share on other sites
Innula Zenovka 3,512 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 What sort of relationships should we be discussing here rather than elsewhere? I mean, friendship is obviously a relationship, and that's got its own sub-forum. And lots of people explore identity and relationships through role-play, which also has its own sub-forum. Do you mean -- as one might infer from the threads that have been so far moved here -- that this particular sub-forum is for discussions of sexual identity and same-sex relationships? Or are those topics equally appropriately discussed elsewhere too? Link to post Share on other sites

Dana Hickman 9 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Whatever it gets named in the end, this is a much needed addition, so thank you! There's a huge portion of peoples second lives that deals only and specifically with the human side of the equation, and all the previous iterations of the forums here will show that these things, whether for sharing, discussion, or asking advice, are what people want to talk about. It's one of those things that's very difficult to learn other viewpoints or gain insight into unless it's actually an allowed topic of discussion. The very nature of it is why this addition helps a lot, but also why the G rating hurts it's usefulness so much. We shall see.. Link to post Share on other sites

(I work in RL on the UG meeting days...but I vote for that as a topic...and hopefully someone can be there as my proxy.... : ) Mega Kudos to Dresden for thinking of such a fantabulous name! Lifestyles and Relationships...sounds great. Also, many thanks to the Lab's forum team for being so responsive. Link to post Share on other sites
Darrius Gothly 709 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 /me puts on his tinfoil hat ... In keeping with a pattern I have noticed over the last two years .. my biggest fear now is .. How long before Lexie and Amanda are "vanished" and the excellent service their team have been providing stops? Rather than cite all the examples that have led me to this theory, I'll just say .. I sure as heck hope I'm wrong! Link to post Share on other sites

Dresden Ceriano 133 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Cool, I added it. The strange thing is, I woke up this morning (actually afternoon... don't ask... lol) and went to the LGBTI thread to post a suggestion I thought of last night for a "Lifestyles" forum and much to my surprise you guys had already created one, just by a different name. Again, thanks... Dres Link to post Share on other sites
