[Maturity Changes in the Marketplace]

I just read the transcript from the meeting with Brooke.

 

I consider there are three main points that i will be very happy to see implemented, being:

First, saving you preferences from the last session you closed. With that, you set your preferences once and pretty much you won't be dabling with those ever again.

Second, by default, import your SL settings right to the MP. And maybe i'm mistaken, there was a bit of confusion in the discussion when this was broached, but the settings to be imported are the SL settings on the general tab of preferences (the main guidelines to what your SL overal rating is), not the individual settings that you have the 3 check boxes to chose from, when you are using search. Would appreciate clarification on this.

Third, an alert when you do a search and you have set a "lower" maturity rating, that there are other items not being listed due to your current maturity setting. Which i mentioned in comparison to the old xstreet, in my last post.

 

On the topic of the check boxes or drop down menu for the 3 (or 5 levels) to chose from during search. I think making those check boxes, will feel more familiar for the user, since it's the same way it presents to us when we use search inworld.

 

With these measures implemented, i'm quite alright with having a "gorean chair" rated mature. As long as the maturity rating in MP reflects by default what your inworld maturity rating is, and stores it. At the same time making people aware "there is more to see".

 

As a final note.

Really, i still resent the fact i keep getting commerce email for xmas specials or halloween specials or commerce opportunities, and didn't get any word on these changes. My alert on what was going on was the fact i had zero sales since these were implemented. The mailing list exists so, please figure out which one to use and use just the one.

If "gorean" and "slave" are such horriby wrong words for describing furniture, then i give up and rated every single item of mine as adult. I would rather you arrive at my store and find nothing, then you might remember to turn on mature content, than what was happening before where only a handful of items showed up. People would think that was it.

In the old xstreet there was a warning, somewhere on the left side that said something like: "some items were not displayed because of your maturity rating" (something like that, can't remember exactly). And i believe it even had a counter of how many items were "hidden".

Bringing that back would help some.
