I know that I first rezzed in Violet. I have not been there for years. If my home location is offline - or I type in a garbage region into the start - I end up in Korea3.
Like many Europeans I am online during maintenance, so have come back often to find myself force logged out.
But never Violet.

higher rendering cost
Render cost, or complexity are both the common terms in use, they do seem to be interchangeable.

Does that mean you CAN buy a homestead from another Land Agent?
Homesteads can be transferred one person to another. But you still need a full region to do this.
These day's there isn't much purpose in transferring homesteads, it's cheaper to buy them new. But yep, you need do the full, there is no way around it.

Hall Monitors.
They sit in the G-Rated area with Ctrl-Alt-T on and tut-tut each time they see red gender bits.
These are the same people who inspect each item in my club looking for adult poses. AKA, petty little people who want to mould the world to their morals, which includes controlling invisible/inaccessible things.
Edit: To make these Hall Monitors worse, there is a whole group of them who will police your groups, and tell you to hide ones they don't approve of.

You know, I am convinced there are a substantial number of people who are too easily triggered to be playing this game.

That said every single last time I drive by their HQ... there's this giant sign out front of (oddly not sure if I remember this right) the like button, and it always has tourists standing in front of it to get a picture... so somebody is still on the bandwagon.
A bit like the people in world who have a like attachment floating off to the side of their head and "nnn people have liked this"

All parents ask their children. "What are you going to use my credit card for?"
Some kids will just purloin the card when Mum isn't looking. If they don't spend anything they will never be caught.

5. Creators that can't take constructive criticism and have full on meltdowns over it
Oh this one for sure. The bulk are gracious, but there is a real cohort of highly strung people who don't seem to be able to deal with it rationally.
Never leave them a bad review.... their world would be shattered.

I did naughtier things in wheat fields than Ms. May. ... I entered/exited on homemade stilts.
How do you know Ms May didn't wear stilts in her wheat field? XD

First a naked guy standing outside saying "wanna f*** babe". Then slimy sea life guy stood right outside my door perving by cam I imagine.
The best defense is still to say something along the lines of "Hang on the missus just needs me to move me truck, and I'll grab a beer"

If you know that the person with the child avatar is under age, file an AR.
I'd take it further... if anyone claims they are underage in real life, AR them no matter what avatar they have on.
I say that because there is a much greater chance that underage person is going to be dressed up as a Gorean masta, or a slave in silks, or a mega-buxxom lady with an aircraft carrier butt, or a muscled superhero... and not wanting to be a pixel-kid.

Is it true that births can not longer be role played on SL?
Confirming what Parhelion says. There is nothing in the TOS/CS that prevent you roleplaying this.
As a lot of people find "tummy talkers" annoying any land owner has the right to ban you on their lands for that if they wish, but they can also do that if you have long hair. Just find another place if this happens.

I hope they can add the muliplayer mode they announced earlier in the year.

There are now links to the Support area in at least 2 areas. et to the main support page from the above links, but at least it gets you into the correct area.
That's much easier! Thank you.
Trying to get to it from secondlife.com is a nightmare.

Which users do you propose to charge more so you can have cheap land? and how many of those users do you think might quit?
This is true, someone has to pay.
The change from 512 to 1024 came at the cost of making the Lindex more expensive. The drop in Private Region teir was due to the same adjustment.
Ebbe has said that he wants to shift the cost of SL away from land far more, but he stated that it was a very slow process, the ramifications in change are huge.
I don't think we will see $30 regions, for one thing the cost of electricity/data/cooling for a server for a month is more then this. But I think we might see a little more change to costs, with more shifting from land to lindex/marketplace

what data? that's the key, with ghostery, ublock and a few custom grease monkey related, I get nothing between the 2. I learned many many years ago to watch my steps to keep a certain family member from locating me or tying me to other related things.
Trouble is, your phone. That's far harder to protect from Farcebook's tentacles.
You can remove the preinstalled app (if it's there) but it's a lot harder to keep a mobile browser in check.
My phone also goes through my pihole, but I am pretty sure there will be some app on it that leaks somehow.
For people with personal safety issues, domestic violence issues, or even jobs that need significant ongoing security clearances; Facebook is a real risk. Especially if google gets hold of a public comment made by accident under your real name and then archives it.

Pet Peeve #1
Merchants who put sex poses into boats and planes but don't sell a PG version. So many waterways are G rated regions and you end up sailing a sex bed through them.
Pet Peeve #2
Merchants who sell a PG rated object, but leave all the X Rated poses inside. Too many lunatics on the grid who get their kicks creating drama when you place a PG object innocently, but there is are un-usable Adult poses inside.

Yes, Fruit islands is also good. If I didn't have my Blake Sea place I would set my home there.

The purpose of this post is to throw some ideas to LL and hopefully some would stick.
Doesn't work that way. Sorry.
LL have said many times, many times, they rarely pay attention to the forums. They have requested time and time again that people throw ideas at the via Jira. In fact they have said point blank they will only listen to suggestions via Jira.
So, by this very fact alone, the thread is not useful for throwing ideas at the Lindens, but it is useful for throwing them at other residents, seeing which ones stick and which ones sink like a rock, then placing those that pass muster into a Jira for the Lab to read.

How come EVERYONE can access Moderate, and Adult regions.

Note my comment in the other thread about pet peeves and those boatbuilders who include sexual poses in their boats - and how it means many people are effectivly sailing sexbeds through general regions - including kid avatars - potentially without even knowing. (edit to say: it's not an excuse, ignorance of one's poses are not - it's just a damned peeve of mine and I've seen it a lot)
Interestingly, our GE thread opener has not returned to his thread.
