Permitted Activities in Tauros Region

[agentronin]

The house that was included in my premium membership is in the Tauros Region, It's Theme is Elderglen, and the design is Abbot's Haven. This house has a large outdoor patio about the same size the rooms are. I need to now what the rules are as to what activity is allowed on this patio. Is nudity permitted? Is sex permitted? Is it permissible to put structures on this patio to keep such activity out of view (unless of course a voyeur peers in using an extended Look At) ?

Looking on the map, Tauros is Moderate.

The lab covered private adult activity in a Moderate area in their "behind closed doors" policy.

What does "behind closed doors" mean?

Adult activity on Moderate land must be conducted "behind closed doors," meaning that you must make every reasonable effort to ensure that the parcel is private. This means:

• Allow only a group or specific individuals access to the parcel. If it is group-access only, the group must
  not
  be freely open to join.
• Hide avatars
  (turn off avatar visibility) for the parcel.
• Enclose the area behind walls or other visual barriers.

While you can be naked and have sex in your house (which one assumes includes the patio) make sure your parcel privacy is on and your ban lines are up.

I wouldn't put adult pictures outside, inside is likely ok.

The lab are always very vague on these things, so it's better to err on the side of caution if you can.

What is says in my World Map is that Tauros is Mature.

Same thing, just language based on the viewer I use being different to the viewer you use.

There are only three clasifications: G / M / A -- you have a home in an M region, so your A activities must be "behind closed doors" as the Lab defined it above.

- avatar nudity is definitely allowed in M rated regions.

- nude photos (imported porn pictures for example) are NOT allowed, screenshots are

- sex is not allowed if the parcel is accessible to the public or the activity can be seen from outside the parcel (so set the appropriate checkbox off so others can't see you, and set the parcel to group access only or invite only).

- you need to keep your Linden house in theme for the region, no putting up "privacy walls" and other disruptive and ugly structures. A few potted plants on the porch are ok.
