This is an interesting conversation, but it is not within the guidelines for posting in General Discussion. As a reminder, the Participation Guidelines for this forum say
Not Allowed:
In addition to adhering to the Community Standards, please refrain from posting content discussing inflammatory content (Politics, Social Justice issues and Interpersonal disputes), anything that doesn’t relate directly to Second Life/Linden Lab, Generic posts (like “Post a random animal picture!” versus an acceptable “Post your Second Life pets!”), etc. These are just guidelines, so please use your best judgment when posting if it is not explicitly stated here!-

Um... things are beginning to drift. Take a deep breath ..... please do what you can to avoid tossing personal barbs. This conversation has been healthy. It deserves a chance to keep going, so please stay on topic and avoid messages intended to provoke an angry or negative response."

Your best guides to what you can put into a report are the Forum Participation Guidelines and the Posting and Participation Guidelines that appear at the top of each subforum. If you believe that someone has violated something in one of the guidelines, you may decide to submit a report that says so, and you may mention relevant information to support your suspicion. A report is a private message, so you are not violating any rules about public disclosure.
Please do not take my comment as an invitation to turn on each other by reporting every suspected infraction. Please note also that "frivolous or malicious use of the abuse report feature" is frowned on. This is not a police state where citizens are rewarded for snitching on each other, and the moderators really don't want to be in the business of "catching" people. We're in this together, trying to make the forums a place for good, civil conversation and discussion.

A brief reminder ... The topic of this thread, in fact it's title, is Make Us Laugh. Please try to keep close to it.

As we all adjust to the new guidelines, we can expect some uncertainty on the part of both forum participants and moderators. This is new territory that we are exploring together. At the moment, this thread is beginning to drift in directions that may soon be over the line, if we are not there already. Rather than lock it and stop a long and productive discussion, I would prefer to simply remind everyone of the topic it started with:
I'd like to know how you use ARs.
Do you have a "philosophy" that guides how you wield this tool (if at all)? A "standard operating procedure"?
Do you have views on how others should, or shouldn't use it?
One important note: please do not use this thread to question or criticize forum moderation. Apart from being against forum rules, this is also not terribly constructive, as we have no say over this. But I think we can learn from each other, which is the real point of this thread.
Please do what you can to stay within the spirit of the original post.

Ummm ... the thread has suddenly wandered off the topic ("Can they forfeit my rental?"). Please, this is not a place for discussing politics.

Or is there a really cool club out there where, like an old fashioned speakeasy, you have to know the password to get in?

Once again, please stay on the topic of the thread, which the proposition stated by the OP:
"I am aware that Linden Lab is an American company and that a rather large part of the user base is American. However, users of Second Life come from all over the world and the world is a very diverse place. This is what i often do not see reflected in discussions about real life topics on this forum."

This has been a robust discussion and it has been civil, for the most part. However, it is having trouble staying on the OP's topic, which @Quartz Mole paraphrased earlier as "the propriety, or otherwise, of selling, in SL, outfits associated with US paramilitary groups". Please do not wander off into arguments about the RL activities of extremist groups or into making political statements. If the thread wanders off topic one more time, we will close it.

On careful reflection, I am unlocking the thread for now. Please do remember, though, that
- Spirited discussion and constructive disagreement are welcome, but name-calling and airing of grievances are not appropriate in our discussion areas. We will also not tolerate any post that encourages others to violate any policy of Linden Lab

C'mon guys, They are gonna take this thread away.
Not quite yet, but it is time for the occasional reminder that it's important to stay on topic. In this case, consider what might fit the definition of a "pet peeve". 🙂

Ancient Mole didn't even use up all the prims on Arboretum with "only" a 13,000 prim build with lots of plants and textures AND an elevator. I would think putting real elevators in a sim that you intend to put 60 avatars on or more is a recipe for disaster. Still, it's highly cool and I believe this is the finest build in the Metaverse.
Thank you, Prok, and thank you on @Ancient Mole's behalf too. I have been pleased and only mildly surprised by how well those elevators have worked out. I have been testing them frequently during SLB to see how they are holding up during busy times. As far as I can see, they have negligible impact on the region's performance. I suspect -- but can't prove -- that the elevators add less load on the servers than teleporting the same number of avatars between the upper and lower levels. They were fun to script.

A reminder to one and all ... The forums are not a proper place for airing personal grievances. Please do your best to keep discussions constructive.

There. LL just did something.
This is a legitimate topic, but I think the discussion has wandered into the weeds.

The thread wandered off topic rather dramatically for a while so we've done some careful pruning. Please do what you can to stay on track and, as always, remember that if you have a personal disagreement with someone else, don't bring it to the forums. Thanks.

Happy Monday! A friendly reminder to all participants .... This thread has been lively but has been careening off course for the past few hours. Please remember to try and stay on topic. If you have a personal disagreement, do not post about it on the Second Life community pages.
As a final caution, you may always report actions that seem to violate the Community Standards. Please remember, however, that the standards also prohibit
- Frivolous or malicious use of the abuse report feature

OK, gang. It's finally time to move on. The conversation has been wandering for a while, so it's hard to follow the topic any more.

It's time for a friendly reminder .... The OP's original statement set the framework for a discussion about "The problem of how to have a civil society online". Somewhere in the past couple of pages, the conversation veered way off topic. Let's try to yank it back again.

It is healthy to remember both the good times and the uncomfortable times. This is how a community builds on the past. Please remember, though, that our current guidelines about naming and shaming ought to apply to former forum members as well. I think we would expect the same as future forum members in 2030 remember us.
