  1. A region designated General is not allowed to advertise or make available content or activity that is sexually explicit, violent, or depicts nudity. Sexually-oriented objects such as "sex beds" or poseballs may not be located or sold in General regions. Source: Maturity ratings That paragraph makes it pretty clear to me that such objects are not allowed even if they are behind "closed doors".
  2. This, exact same story with me. I actually had someone owe me 4 months rent once because they were having a bit of a hard time with work, they had been renting from me for over a year and then they let me know a few weeks before the rent was due. I told them not to worry about it, just keep me updated if they are going to move out. 4 months later I see him start paying rent again, found out he got a new job and everything worked out fine. I ended up clearing most of the 4 months rent so he wasn't behind and he stayed for another year or so after that. I generally don't evict anyone unless they are late and fail to respond to multiple messages though. If you are late and have nothing or very few prims rezzed I assume you have moved out, if there's still a building there I message to let you know the rent is due, I then try again later and if I still get no reply IO check when you last logged in and if you have been on but ignored my messages you get evicted. If you haven't logged on at all I'll ask anyone else listed on the rental. I try make every effort I can to contact my tenants before evicting them but a little warning goes a long way.
  3. I miss my Linden home. I actually met my neighbor once and a friend of mine was just down the road the next sim over!
  4. Wow that is crazy! Clearly time for me to raise my prices too right?
  5. I sued to rent a gazebo in a themed community. I was actually only there looking around when I saw it available and got it for a laugh. It was a low prim allowance so I just rezzed a table and some chairs in it, used to sit there with friends sometimes to chat. Unfortunately the place changed owners and the new owner wanted much more than I was previously paying, so I didn't end up keeping it.
  6. My biggest disappointment was a pack of 11 animations I bought from someone once years ago for a single purpose. After buying them I realized every single animation had problems which could not be fixed in world. I contacted the creator about it and they wouldn't even reply to me so I ended up teaching myself how to make animations and basically made my own better versions
  7. I don't maintain my SL identity on any non-sl websites but I do have real business cards with my SL details on them for use in certain rare occasions where I am meeting with other SL residents in real life. The cards have my avatar name instead of my actual name, along with an email address (with my avatars name so I can tell emails are regarding SL) the URL for my website and basic details about what I do in SL.
  8. Personally one thing I would love to see if premium gifts delivered directly to my received items. I have missed many gifts due to simply not logging in for months or not having the time to go and collect them. I've even missed some because I didn't realize there was a new gift (missed the treehouse this way). I'm not downsizing yet, and I don't plan on it anytime soon with the current prices.
  9. No, if there is anything you wouldn't expect a child av to use/be near in a general sim, then it shouldn't be there IMHO.
  10. Well that didn't take long did it. Why would my rental business drive my engagement in this? Sure I run a successful rental business that is clearly more organized than yours, but I am generally always at or close to 100% occupation and don't need new tenants. You have no effect on my business whatsoever and it would make no financial difference to be if you were on SL not getting griefed, getting griefed or banned. The same goes for my child avatar, you have no idea why I use a child avatar so don't have a go at me for having one. FYI the reason is a long story involving properly portioned avatars and an in joke with friends. I used an avatar years ago which was a properly proportionate human but as people on SL are generally much taller and bigger than real life my friends joked that I could be a child if I was a little shorter so I made the switch one day for a laugh and stuck with it. I do not participate in any SL activities made for child avatars and only keep it as part of the joke between my friends. I also keep an adult avatar if I need to go to adult regions and a couple of fantasy avatars I sometimes switch to. Sure none of the three cases I pointed out are to do with libel but guess what, you said no court would take as case between two anonymous avatars but I proved you wrong as 1. Courts have taken cases between SL residents before and 2. Residents are not as anonymous as you make them out to be.
  11. You say that but YOUR ACCOUNT (as in the account by the name of "Prokofy Neva" appears to be suspended by all means of checking I have access to. I never said you can't set the rules, I also never said you can't ban people for any reason you see fit (even if you don't like the color shirt they are wearing, you are allowed to ban them) what I disagree with is your "DO NOT RENT LIST" being publicly distributed as this notecard does not give the accused any way to defend themselves. I'm fine with you keeping the list, in fact I have a very very short list of people banned from my rentals and I keep this list to myself and my staff as this is MY ban list. Exactly, why should they care if someone breaks your land specific rules? It is not their business. They provide you with the tools to remove and/or ban people from your land and that is their part done. Anything more would be like the police in real life breaking down your door and arresting you because your neighbour doesn't like your ringtone. They aren't stealing anything when you are saying "here, this land is for you to rez whatever you want on it" by not setting your land permissions properly. Once again, you are not the law in SL. it is not your job to publicize these details. You are essentially making wanted posters for anyone on your list. Lease it to LL to police SL, if you want to have your own ban list go right ahead but this isn't something you should be sharing. If you are so clueless as to why then it makes perfect sense why a griefer is targeting you and it sounds like you deserve everything you are getting. Furthermore if you are recording evidence like you say, and you have recorded evidence of someone being a pedophile, would you not be recording illicit material? Would this not be against the law in the state/country you live in? Are you now going to delete whatever you recorded and if so can you now prove that user is a pedophile without producing the evidence which incriminates you? I think you will find the mere act of having said bed will not get a user banned. I use a child avatar myself and have no less than 4 adult beds rezzed where I spend most of my time. That does not mean I use the beds in any way and doesn't mean I have ever been a part of *****. In fact if you have a look at any house I have ever lived in on SL you are likely to find an adult bed, and no child compatible bed. Not because I want it this way but because I never found a child bed I liked so I never kept a bed for my own avatar. You have been on SL for what, 13 years? You've had your rentals "business" for 12 years correct? Surely you have heard of any of the cases which have made it to court where a user has sued either Linden Labs or another resident. Bragg v. Linden Lab in 2007, Richard Minsky sued Victor Vezina along with Linden Labs in 2008, Kevin Alderman (Eros LLC) v. Volkov Catteneo also in 2007. These are just three of the many cases which have been taken to court, and you say no court would take a case involving anonymous avatars. I thought you just said avatars are anonymous? Avatars are far from anonymous. In fact in one of the 3 cases I mentioned above Kevin Alderman successfully has the details of the real world person behind the avatar Volkov Catteneo released by LL for the court case. You cannot claim courts won't take the cases when there is clear precedent already made. It;s not a TOS offense though. If you believe is it then I challenge you to point out anywhere in the TOS that states this. I suggest starting your search at Linden Lab Official:Clarification of policy disallowing *****. Once again I find myself repeating myself, I never said you cannot have your own rules for your rentals. It's your business and your land do whatever you want with it, but that does not mean anything against your rules is against the TOS and certainly doesn't mean you are the SL law.
  12. So you think it's better to have a notecard with no way for the accused to defend themselves rather than have people ban people if/when they have a problem with them? Should I start giving out notecards saying to ban you because you keep calling people obnoxious clueless gits? Wouldn't you consider the AR system to be an independent judiciary? LL have no reason to influence decisions regarding abuse reports and therefore I consider this to be sufficient. The abuse report system is clearly working because every time whoever is running these bots makes a new one it gets banned does't it? so the system works. Sure the person is able to create a new account but that is due to them being able to workaround anything LL puts in place to stop this. Squatting is not a violation of the TOS because it is up to YOU, the "owner" of the land to set the permissions how you want the land to be used. YOU are setting the permissions to allow squatting, therefore YOU are allowing people to squat. Why would it be a violation of TOS for someone to do what YOU are saying is fine on your land. Overprimming also won't be against the TOS for the same reason. If you want to run a rentals business, you are responsible for maintaining your land and ensuring your tennants are following whatever rules you give them. It is not LL's job to run your business for you. Squatting on land in real life is completely different to SL as in SL you are unable to squat on land when the land owner has set permissions accordingly. I too allow people to have their friends come over and rez objects yet people cannot squat and you know why? I, unlike you, know how to run a rentals business in such a way that allows people to rez without squatting. Now that your account is suspended maybe you will have time to do some research on this so if/when you are allowed to return you won't have problems with people squatting. If you have reported it to LL then you have done your part. You are not the police, you should not be publicizing anything about this. LL will look into the matter and take the appropriate action, it is not for you to go claiming someone has done something to the public especially without giving them a chance to defend themselves.
  13. Me? In on it? I don't know who you are, I don't recall ever seeing you, your son or your rentals prior to a few days ago (although oddly enough the last time I was getting spammed by a rental business was many many years ago and your name was mentioned back then too even though it wasn't your business). I didn't say it's illegal did I? It takes a special kind of person to publish the details you do though. I actually checked a few names at random from the list of people yo usay were squatting. Unfortunately you didn't add dates to the notecard but I'm guessing it's going back at least a year and a lot of the accounts I looked up were created within the last year or so. Some of these users may not actually understand the land needs to be rented to use it as you have not bothered to set the land permissions correctly. If land is set to allow anyone to rez objects with no autoreturn then this gives people the idea that the land is free to use. Anyone in the rentals business should surely understand how land permissions work and be able to set them appropriately for the purpose of the land. Yep, it's an inconvenience to your tenants to stop random people from being able to come to their place and rez objects on the land they are renting from you. I sure hate it when rental companies stop random people from littering the land I pay for. Yeah I get it, some of these are perfectly valid reasons and I would evict and possibly ban people for the same reasons but calling people obnoxious and pedophiles? Seriously? If they are pedophiles file an AR and let LL deal with it, there's no reason for you to be publicizing this and the only obnoxious person on the notecard is the person who created it IMHO.
  14. You might not, but I sure hope you get one seeing as in the few days I've known you I've seen you, yes you not someone impersonating you, do some pretty horrible things. Yet rather than posting this: You posted this: Which takes up more than twice the number of characters and makes people to to a third party website just to see who is authorized. You have so much vast experience that you are making the completely wrong moves (such as the one above) actually come to think of it the best move would be to add this to your profile instead of the authorized representatives section: This makes it clear to the people checking your profile that these bots aren't yours and should be AR'ed. This would cut down on a lot of the spam you are getting but then why would I expect you to do this when you are probably a "clueless git" to use your own language. All I did was say Hi to you in an IM and rather than sending me a proper reply you sent me a link to a blog post which frankly made no sense until I read the previous post and after reading that I realize you deserve what you are getting. I was actually at your office looking for a waterside parcel preferable near a LL owned waterway for sailing purposes and when I got to your office I found the following notecard (by you, given to me from an object owned by you so you can't say this isn't your doing): I have redacted the names from the notecard because this should not be shared anywhere. It's fine for you to maintain a ban list and a lot of the people on this list seem to have valid reasons for evicting them (eg. overprimming) but publicizing a list of names along with these reasons? Calling people obnoxious and pedophiles? Banning people for squatting? If someone is squatting then it means you have set your permissions incorrectly and that is on you not them.
