Revenue idea- 1 L$ per post
The Answers section should be completely free, to encourage new users to ask any questions. The responders to the Answers should certainly be paid for correct and encouraging answers. Over here in the zoo part, I think everyone should have a limit on number of posts they can have in a day, so they'll consider more carefully before posting. And the Leaderboard should be got rid of. That always reminds me of the Smartie top chart from schooldays (aged 5-7). I don't need reminding I will never be the most popular kid in school, especially as a 62 year old adult! -
Does Linden Lab have an ethics or values statement?
I had a look and I don’t think there’s a clear, resident facing ethics statement for Second Life. As someone else indicated, The Tao of Linden talks about empathy and good intent, and it throws some corporate poetry our way with ideas like “walk in their shoes". It doesn’t really say much about how that 'good intent' might show up when decisions are made, rules are enforced, or people are affected. After that, everything jumps straight to policies and Community Standards, which are about what’s allowed and what isn’t. What seems to be missing is a simple statement of principles. Things like dignity, fairness, transparency, and accountability, which might explain how Linden Lab thinks about its responsibilities to residents. Without that, you end up having to infer ethics from outcomes rather than from anything clearly stated up front. Let's face it, it's probably most accurately viewed as an intentional omission that leaves a nice big gap between espoused values and enforcement that’s hard to talk about clearly. "Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission" as my old Gran used to say 🙂 -
Does Linden Lab have an ethics or values statement?
From browsing through some.of the Roblox info, it does seems as though LL's ToS, community standards, copyright policy, etc. seem to cover the majority of the same concerns that Roblox's does. Now, how much either company adheres to those policies is another issue. -
Huge potential in social neighbourhoods but unreachable?
Oh I was pulling a solar. That wasn't for you. -
Would it be healthy to say my woman avatar is like my girlfriend?
Just be sure to clean your doll regularly. Not doing do would definitely be unhealthy.
