Ceka Cianci Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Well, that should make life much easier for many that were curious and now have more clarity with the modesty layers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Persephone Emerald Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 1 minute ago, Coffee Pancake said: The new FAQ is typo central .. There are a couple of points that I feel you have missed the mark on answering. Specifically. The question about adult bodies being downsized was in relation to built in genitalia. The Maitreya and Rebirth bodies BOTH have geometry in the crotch to represent female genitals (the rebirth, a body FOR child avatars, being extremely detailed). Do these actual meshes comply with the rules? A modestly layer is not going to make this go away. I don't want to post pictures. Do I have to post pictures ? The term Kidcore has been broadly misunderstood. This is ADULT avatars wearing clothing with a child like aesthetic, fashion or style. This is NOT stuff for child avatars, but looks like it could be. These additions were just posted. I figure they'll correct the typos. Regarding "Kidcore." I just looked up the term. It generally has nothing to do with animations, though I suspect there could be child-like furniture in SL with sexual animations in them. These should be clearly labeled going forward as being intended only for adult (18+) avatars. GenX can also show genitalia built into the mesh of the body. What about Reborn & Erika? I know Erika has gentital add-ons. Maitreya Lara & LaraX should be safe with the BOM layer worn to smooth out the genital region & nipples, then wearing BOM undies or other modesty textures that fully cover the naughty bits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The term Kidcore has been broadly misunderstood. This is ADULT avatars wearing clothing with a child like aesthetic, fashion or style. This is NOT stuff for child avatars, but looks like it could be. IIRC, using one of the BoM layers on Maitreya effectively smooths out the genital area. I haven't used that body in awhile but I know the option is there. With my Reborn, I can do the same with a click of a button on the HUD.

Administrators Tommy Linden Posted May 31 Administrators Share Posted May 31 At least you all know the work wasn't done by a bot! Can't give a guy even a minute or two of slack on the typos (which are already fixed, for those wondering).

Thanks for everything you do @Tommy Linden I can really tell you have been listening to everyone. It's kind of freaky to discuss things in the forums and then see things in the FAQ but good all the same. Like Madi said, big hugs! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowan Amore Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 2 minutes ago, Coffee Pancake said: Kidcore - This is an adult. They weren't talking about the look in their answer but objects with adult animations... Q: With the new rules, what is the stance on "kidcore" products? A: If objects contain adult/sexual animations they cannot be marketed to or for child avatars. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kicore is not child avatar specific, or even aimed specifically at child avatars. Kidcore is mostly a dress up aesthetic. I'm not even sure how they got from kidcore to objects with animations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brodiac90 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Also, in the excitement of mentioning no chest layer for female toddlers, was the any mention of the back of the chest modesty layer being optional for older females? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilbap Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 @Tommy Linden To be honest, I've been pretty angry at you guys for a few days now. I lost a community of friends that hung out on a sim that was functionally Mature but flagged adult due to ignorance of the ToS. Having reported actual people that have hit me up for sex still around didn't really improve my feelings. This is nice though, it feels we've been heard. So thanks to those that have helped ease the stress of this situation. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's something else entirely. But again, as there seems to be some reading comprehension problems here .. That's not what a question about kidcore was in reference too in a discussion and policy about avatars. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowan Amore Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 Kidcore is an aesthetic targeting 90s childhood nostalgia. It includes the use of highly saturated primary colours like red, blue and yellow along with childish themes derived from cartoons like Rugrats and Hello Kitty. Glitters, rainbows, stuffed toys, slinkys and stickers are commonly sported by kidcorists who channel the aesthetic. Since they didn't address the rainbow stickers on your face, your teddy bear or your binky, they must not see a problem with it. Unless of course, your avatar is already of questionable age. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at some kidcore makeup, if you weren't a questionable age before, you'd likely be after putting it on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
