I have had two items unlisted for keywords The following product has been automatically unlisted due to banned text in the keywords_in_all_languages field: Razzor. Now I am trying to figure out what the banned text is all of a dsudden.

Well, i just discovered that pictures that I had uploaded and were showing on Marketplace were no longer showing> i found the reason to be was that there were spaces in the name of the picture. For example "Red Dress Advert" would not show up, but if I renamed it to "RedDRessAdvert" it would show up. I just spent over an hour renaming pictures and then uploading them again. You may want to check your pictures yourself.

Well, i too the SPACES out of my picture names and it worked, never had this issue with my advert pics before.

This would be the product images in marketplce, I mean that is why I am in the merchant forum

Yes, they are the proper size. but when I up load it looks like they are uploading like normal, but once done even though it says a picture is there it is not.

Unfortunately there are 117 pages and to try and sort through them all. Myy questions involve jousting, or melee tournaments. Many offer a linden cash prize given by the host and have a prize barrell where competitors and observers can also add to it. There is no entry fee. But linden cash prizes. Would these fall under skilled gaming.

I cannot post the store in question here but looking on Marketplace today, I found under "Featured items" a store set up by an avatar that is selling real life porno pictures of themselves or at least they claim it is of themselves. I am not a prude but, is this really allowed, is this what Marketplace is for?

Thank you

I have several items marked with the below. Okay, now first off I do not believe these are listed incorrectly or have I used keyword spam, but two things here. Perhaps an explanation of which key words and even more important how do I either re-list the item properly or remove it. I cannot do anything since it is blocked. Removed under our Marketplace Listing Guidelines for Spam or Disallowed Listing Practices-Keyword Spam (unrelated keywords that skew search results).

So, let's say a Vendor creates a product. And, the product requires certain things like access to the vendors server, now the vendor gets upset with you the user, actually a bunch of users, removes their access which makes the item they bought for a goodly amount of lindens totally useless. The vendor removes the product from the marketplace and stops selling it in world. Then a month later the product pops back up on Marketplace, oH and has a bunch of reviews from before it being removed. So, one or two of the people he ripped off decide to write bad reviews of the product. With in a day the bad reviews are removed. Not sure if this is fair, since the ones that are left are all obvisosly put their by friends and all 5 star. Is there any recourse, of course this situation has been brought to Linden Labs but as usual they are hands off.

If going for a Desktop check out TigerDirect and look at barebones systems. Build yourself.

Sorry, yes you are correct only Business Machines have proper docking stations now. Look into HP EliteBook Mobile Workstations. You can find them under Small medium Business on hp.com

So, I guess none of you people were ever noobs... you came into Second Life fully knowing all there is, BAH... and now you know why people don't stick around, instead of maybe offering to help you make fun of them and want to blow them up.

I would be interested in recently replied to threads being moved to top.

You can also recieve a cease and desist letter for Trademark infringment if you use something that will make people feel that are buying something made by someone else. For example try and tie the word "Margaritaville" to any product and watch how fast Jimmy Buffett's lawyers come after you. However, in response to the OP's question, first off if they claim that the use of a gesture/phrase is legally binding as theirs then they are completely clueless, and trying to to feed you a line. If the gesture was copyrighted as intellectual property or the phase was Trademarked then they would have used those terms.

I would be interested in seeing how long this will last since we are not allowed to post about a certain inworld event that raises money for Relay for Life.

It is too bad you didn't read the 'prime directive' you would not have added your elitist comment. Yes, it is the responsibility of all PICards to empower each other, and without distinction. Ahhh... so it is also your responsibility to demean and insult other people and their posts as I have seen you do in other threads.

Then why is a title needed... it seems to me that these new forums will again become to me what the old ones were, something to read when bored at work, and not really care to participate. They already seem to be even more restrictive then the old ones. I had hoped with the new ones, but no, and I will stop here.

So... are PIcs the new elitist group... well, time to start another elitest group HIIC's where stand for Heck If I Care... use the forum, do you really need a tag title or some other thing to make you feel empowered. BAH

Well there are no "Official" Police Groups and there are self-appointed vigilante groups. I play in mostly Medieval and Medieval/Fantasy Sims, these Sims all have one common rule and that is you be dressed appropiatly for the SIM. If a sim I was a moderator on was under a griefing attack and one of these self-rightous over-zealous comic book characters popped into my sim they would be hit with the ban hammer just as fast as the griefers they do not belong there.
