Because the implementation is so very poor, and the blocked word list is so very long and ridiculous, it’s going to make it very hard to find a lot of things that have nothing to do with sex or anything “adult”. Two words – breast cancer. Enough said. Even the choice of the Lindens to use “AO” to abbreviate Adult Oriented (when we all know it means animation override) is beyond stupid. What does that say to you? To me it says CLUELESS!

This is a disaster. Just wait until they release that garbage. They are going to have a nightmare on their hands. Again.

As the other grids develop and there are other options available, Linden Labs is going to end up with ONLY business and educational users. Maybe that is the plan. They have every right to do what they like with their business, but they had better let us take our content out of SL. Until all of those hypothetical users all log on to the new squeaky clean grid, they might want to do a little more to retain the current resident base.

I think they either fundamentally don’t understand the users and what we want, don’t care, or are about to be bought out by IBM, Sun, Microsoft, etc., and this is a condition of the deal.

I’m excited. It should be very entertaining to see how fast they can back up when the “poop” hits.
