Keeping it civil is within our best interest so trying to avoid unneeded slander, calling of names. there hasn't been a threat to be closed as far i know, just a call to keep it to the point.

BilliJo Aldrin Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 (edited) It always starts with an im, two people happen to connect, and they go do their thing. Modesty panels and restricting children to certain sims won;'t stop that Edited May 7 by BilliJo Aldrin spelling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the topic isn't about child exploitation and how to try and prevent it? I thought that was what the changes to the TOS are for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorientje Woller Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 18 minutes ago, Starberry Passion said: Second life is based in the U.S. it is not illegal here to like fictional characters, however I'm not justifying the actions of underA.P. Second Life is not trying to remove child avatars or use fear tactics to control the users behind them, or make them feel bad as a whole. just so you are aware of that. This forum is not about that, it's about the change of the ToS and about Modesty. I am going to say it straight out: Bull. I have mentioned here before in this topic. The DSA (Digital Service Act) of the EU states clearly that depiction of CP/CA or imagery of CP/CA is not allowed on websites, social media, virtual worlds, even games. Failing to comply to the DSA puts you (company behind website, social media, virtual world, game) at risk of a massive fine, legal prosecution and/or in worst case being blocked of access from within the EU borders. Do you really think that LL is going to risk their marketshare from the European Union? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the innocent ones will ever be hurt by the changes, the guilty will carry on unconcerned and unimpared 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BilliJo Aldrin Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 (edited) If a guy wants to make his avi 8 ft tall, even a normal sized avi will look like a child next to him, or on a poseball, So how will these changes stop anything?

Consider SL a product of LL, and in order to be on the market in the EU, that product has to comply to the laws, norms, regulations of the EU or otherwise it's not welcome.

Sydelle Zanzibar Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 (edited) 3 hours ago, SpiritSparrow Skydancer said: I do not understand why you would need a modesty layer if you have no skin detailing for m/f anatomy. perhaps I do not understand the TOS but from what I do understand it is only to cover skins that have the anatomy already. It doesn't say that. It says kids need modesty panels. if that is the intention, LL needs to clarify the point. Personally, i think tinting the genital area a different color (especially just a different skin tone) "draws attention" to the genitals way more than the solid color with no anatomy details. I already saw one skin that was labeled "TOS compliant" that looked creepier to me than the non compliant ones. I also really would like clarification on the "transparent" part of the rule. I believe they mean partially showing genital detailing, but it doesn't SAY that. I would also call alphas "transparent' so this is not clear enough at all. Edit: no idea why the other quotes where there. so i removed. Edited May 7 by Sydelle Zanzibar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By making SL a place where "foreign laws" are disrespected and driving off all the foreigners, you just got rid of about 60%+ of SL's population, to defend the "right" of 0.5% to be AR Clickbait. That's a really good way to KILL off SL, not make it "grow and have more people". Outstanding! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threats work with kids .. not with adults. ( i have some experience with being stubborn, don't worry, sometimes it will be exchanged with more reasonable things) So if someone saw you in real life and threaten to shoot you or someone you know or someone close by in the face, you're saying that that's not only a threat and that it's only for kids? If someone says "I'm going to report you, for fraud if you don't correct this." Is that not a threat? If someone says "I'll wreck your business if this gets out" Is this not a threat? "I'm going to call the police if you don't leave" is this not a threat? "I'd hate that anything were to happen to such a nice person such as you." This not a threat? This is a vague threat. Anyways, Quartz said he doesn't want to close the thread so keep on topic, that's all I said. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
