That may be very difficult for those with poor impulse control, or those who do not trust themselves, and of course those who do not trust Linden Lab.

Arielle Popstar Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 11 minutes ago, ErwinVonVlotho said: Of course they do; not acting on them all would be like juggling legal grenades with the pins pulled. But "acting on" does not mean banning the subject of the AR. Everyone who gets ARd is a customer. Banning them will lose money and SL is a business. They're not going to ban anyone on an unsupported AR alone. Most of SL's business is from land, not individual accounts. They can lose a few thousand concurrent accounts and it will barely make a dent for them. Your account is a lot more important to you then it is to them. Make no mistake. We are quite dispensable. Quote No, there really aren't that many at all. And, once again, LL are not looking for excuses to ban people. It is not in their interests to do that. I don't think it particularly matters to them. If a bunch of bannings scares people into following the new rules, whatever they may be, then I suspect it is not that big a deal for them. You might be putting a bit too much focus on the L$ spent on content rather then the land sales which makes up a major percentage of their business.

Is there an additional “child avatar crisis” that has yet to be disclosed and is new? Is this really about EU laws? i think it's and, and, + and The internal crisis is worse than shown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the person that was in power to "do something" woke up on the wrong side of the bed that day. <sarcastic remark> I’m always afraid that the person looking at an AR on me is having a bad hare day 😂 Note: yes I know, I said that once before, but not everyone might have seen it 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arielle Popstar Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 20 minutes ago, Sid Nagy said: On the same base, that you assume they will take measures immediately. I've been around long enough to know that if one colors somewhat within the lines, not very much will harm you. In all the 17 years that I'm around, I was once banned (last year) from a Linden estate at whim of a Linden. But that was straightened out in the end. For the rest, every contact with Lindens and Moles has been correct and pleasant. Not that I had that many of them. Stay within TOS and live your life, that is all there is to it in Second Life. If one chooses the drama road, there is a minefield to be seen everywhere IMHO. I remember all your postings of your problems with just being allowed back on those regions. You're a poster child example of how easy it is to get on the wrong side of virtual policing here. Now you trying to tell me its no big deal? It certainly seemed to be at the time and many people in the forum agreed with you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect Land barons can operate on a negative rental income and still make money on tax write offs, but don't quote me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me check my email. Nope, no memo. Our groups are still active, and I see a dozen of my friends online. I don't know where you got your information but I would re-evaluate my source. Your anti child rants were amusing a few hundred pages ago. Now it's just sad. Ether get more material or give it rest already. 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
