But their <I>actions</I> and their refusal to consider builds by certain individuals spoke very clearly to whom they wanted to build at SL5B, and whom they wanted to hide under the rug.<BR/><BR/>Darien: yeah, I'm hoping that's just outrageous speculation, m'self. Better place to play or not, I think I'd be leaving SL if the 'adult' sectors of the grid suddenly had to conform to 'teen-appropriate' behavior.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand, the sixteen-year-old son of my roommates? Has pictures of girls in collars and cuffs and smiles on his cellphone. He speaks of 'owning' several teen girls in 'teen-appropriate' playspaces, like Shinobi Legends. So what, precisely, is 'teen-appropriate', now?Emilly Orrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07245643246821826101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2135301473915671680.post-35028572231609164822008-06-19T06:08:00.000-07:002008-06-19T06:08:00.000-07:00Merging the Teen and the Adult Grid?

If they spin it as a cost-cutting measure dovetailed with mandatory government ID's for adult sims, I could actually see them doing it.<BR/><BR/>*starts building a fallout shelter*itsdavidvchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00697102963756096755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2135301473915671680.post-88263510210557536792008-06-18T18:35:00.000-07:002008-06-18T18:35:00.000-07:00I think the definition of being Lindened is just s...I think the definition of being <I>Lindened</I> is just so appropriate. This whole "there was never a ban" makes me wonder if Everett Linden is a politician or a PR manager.<BR/>No. 131:<I><BR/>“Child avatars are welcome at the celebration. However, we do respectfully decline the submissions we received to create exhibits for the event.”<BR/><BR/>I explicitly welcomed child avatars. Therefore, it can’t be a ban.</I><BR/><BR/>I think I agree with Solomon Devoix when he says: <I>You say there was no blanket ban. Well, allow me to quote Inigo Montoya from “The Princess Bride”:<BR/><BR/>“You keep using that word; I don’t think it means what you think it means.”</I>Edward Pearsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16064707444626044745noreply@blogger.com
