That was before they changed the guidelines. Specifically: No Nudity or Adult Content: All content posted on the Second Life Forums must be rated “General” per our Maturity Ratings. Keep in mind, this does not include content posted specifically in the “Adult Content Forum” section. Bare butts are nude. I wouldn't tell people that bare butts are ok without definitive statements from LL employees. I am going to err on the side of caution. If its covered at the beach I will only post that in the Adult section.

That may be the case, but we did get clarification about nudity on the forums. I just dont want to see anyone get smacked for the new guidelines.

Just an FYI, this is NOT the adult section of the forums. Nudity is not permitted anywhere but there. There is a thread there just for tasteful nude where this would fit in well.

Sadly a daily newspaper costs around $2 usd where i live. Used to be 25 cents when i was a kid.. They didnt get any bigger, not more news in them, just jacked up the rice for the same news you can see all day on TV or hear on the radio. oooh, do i have to describe what a radio is for kids these days? I know the stream everything online..

It's literally what its name implies. A stack of large very thin paper that has the news of the world printed on it. Local news inside, big stories on the cover. And on Sunday, why Sunday dear Maryanne was a magical day when the first 8 pages were filled with colorful cartoon strips. Now we just look crap up on the net.

too lean, not enough soft bits.. I mean, seriously, 99.999% of all men in SL are hard core body builders. Women have the soft curves. And they change their clothing, would you honestly want to eat someone who hasn't changed their outfit in 5 years?

For anyone who doesn't know what Dolcett is and doesn't want to traumatize themselves with a google search. om nom nom nom nookie.

See, LL will clean up the forums of the off topic bickering... I would bet that will be coming shortly in this thread. If only they could clean up the MP of the ripped and copyright protected things. They say they cant without the holder filing a DMCA but we ll know that LL owns everything we upload anyway so they should be able to do as they wish. Personally i think its more the $L they make on the sales and upload fees they dont want to lose. ETA Don't make me pull this thread over, turn around and take us all home. I want to go to the beach as much as anyone, but the bickering is getting a bit much. Don't you want to lie on the beach and get a nice tan, ogle some cute boys or girls and have a nice picnic lunch?

Why wouldnt they just promote someone to the new owner of the group? I was in a group for a store years ago, I had to take a break from SL for RL reasons and when i came back i found myself as the sole member (aside from my alt) of that group and the new owner. The store owner left SL and everyone left the group while i was on hiatus. I dont see the point of starting a new group just because the previous group creator leaves. I have said many many times, if you cant afford to run a sim for fun not profit, then dont open a sim for free. If you want to help people and provide a place for volunteers to come offer their services, dont get bent when people dont help pay for the sim.

If we still called it Shell Shock perhaps those suffering from it might get the care they need. Take the life out of a condition by changing the words and you take the care out of treating it.

Its funny. You cite GTA V as being this horrible game because you "can" kill innocent civilians, yet you dont actually have to do so. And its only banned in about 3 or 4 of the countries of the world. I really think you are making a mountain out of amole hill here. Yes, there are dens of iniquity in SL. Good luck finding them. Most are invite only and extremely hard to find. In the 14 years I have been in SL, and most of those active in the DD/BG community, I have been approached twice once by a child av looking for adult times and once by an adult av looking for a place to find child avs to have adult times with. Paedophillia is not as rampant in SL as some people make it out to be. Its like they want it to be that bad for some reason. There was a woman, many moons ago, who came to me when i was an escort and asked if i could fulfill a fantasy she has had for a long time. It was impossible to do in RL so she decided to try it in SL. Simply put, she wanted me to wear a monster av and forcibly.. use her. Then while in a canine position, she wanted me to shred her back and rip out her heart. Personally, i was very concerned by this request. We spoke about it for several weeks, both of us trying to find where this fantasy could have come from and why. In the end, she decided that it was from reading dark fantasy bodice rippers at a very young age and wanted to go through with it anyway. For me, it was the $10,000Lshe was willing to pony up that decided it. TL:DR people have weird fantasies, who are we to judge them unless they involve children?

I'm good, thanks. I dont need to give their trashsite a hit.

Pssst, its been 19 years since SL was launched.

YEEOUCH! That's got to be one of the most dismissive things I've read about SL in the mainstream media for quite a while. Pretty funny for something that still makes millions of dollars a year for its parent company, 19 years after its founding. (Fun fact: did you know that the same Waterfield investment group that now owns Second Life also owns blue-chip investment firm Goldman Sachs? Check out the “Waterfield Network” listing of companies at the bottom of that last link.) I'm sorry, seeing as I refuse to give them my cc info to read that article, is that the extent of the "scathing paragraph?" If so, that is hardly scathing. At best its possibly damaging, in reality its 2nd grade insults.

Seeing as its currently 89 and humid as heck, thank you.

You can set me on fire... Demons dont burn.

I had 5 posts nuked for being off topic. Just today.. Not chancing getting banned..

This and all other bunny posts are off topic.. This is a thread about cats. With all the nuking going on, lets keep it relevant..

Take off the mesh, leave the shape on and then measure yourself. I would be willing to bet you arent 2.5m tall. The mesh isnt measured by the viewer, the skeleton is. You have ZERO clue as to what you are trying to say. Height is defined by prim measurement, there has always been a difference between the actual by prim measurement and what the SL viewer says you are. The Firestorm viewer tries to take that difference into account.

OK, first off, the "size" of a non human mesh avatar can be wildly off by prim size measurement AND by the viewer. It measures the skeleton. Most non human mesh avatars use a deformer to get the correct shape of the skeleton. Which can give weird measurements. Secondly, please dont post links to stolen/ripped game content. That av is the property of DC comic and is ripped from one of their games. Height in SL has been defined by LL. They set the ruler. A prim is the best way to measure your height as its measurements are defined by LL. A 1m cube is a 1m cube no matter what sim you rez it on. If your height , measured by prim, says 2m then your av is 2m tall. I dont care what the viewer says. The viewer doesn't measure your mesh, it measures your skeleton. I have a dragon av that the viewer says i am 3m tall.. The av is over 12m long, so which is correct?

If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... the A-Team.

I keep wondering if i should have this one removed...

Goood morning!

But, you are wrong. There are many many sites that have research documents about SL. And some of the thesis creators have come back and posted the results of their thesis survey. Why you would think we are lying is beyond me. Just because they didnt publish their findings on the net or in a book (not sure why they would do that) doesnt mean they didnt submit their findings to their professor.
