Hello! Please, add function for block IM from objects optional. I and many other SL residents receive daily spam of political, provocative, offensive and extremist content. This has been going on for over 2 years now, every day. Unfortunately, numerous reports to LL during all this time do not help. This spam is sent by a group of people using a scripted object that they rezz to the ground in the sandbox. This script send a IM message from this object to the nearby chat, using a list of avatars. The object's name changes randomly each time it is placed on the ground. After sending spam, the object is automatically deleted. Spam objects on the ground place fake avatars (bots), the number of which already exceeds several hundred, so banning them is useless. This problem with spam can be solved by adding a blocking IM from objects optional. For example, adding check box "Disable Object IM" to the preferences menu. Or add function to debug settings "DisableObjectIM (true/false)". Thank you!

Right now some mainland areas have maybe 1 or 2 protected waters in front of them allowing them to be protected but un-sailable, it seems there's many areas like this and it seems to not make sense, maybe connecting some more water near these areas would add more value to these. Some people are unaware that some protected water is really not sailable in their area and if they are new to SL they may not realize this. I understand it costs money to do this but it's just a thought.

It is no secret that most of the traffic and active userbase that Second Life experiences (and has historically experienced) is here for some form of NSFW content. Second Life has a long history of being an online digital space for kink and erotic RP, and much of the market is dominated by this fact. I, to be frank, think the fact the TOS still allows underage users after all this time to be delusional and dangerous and is in denial of the common demographic of Second Life, and is therefore negligently allowing minors to enter harm's way. No right minded parent would ever knowingly allow their child to sign up for Second Life, as the sexual nature of SL is not hard to find in a quick lookup online, and is impossible to avoid entirely even if relegated to only general sims. And if a minor is on Second Life, then to me that indicates they are not having their internet access actively monitored by a parent, and is exactly the demographic of person we need to be protecting . They are the most at risk from actual sexual predators and grooming online. "but won't kids just lie and sign up anyway?" yes! they will. And it's why we need to raise the age limit so we can meaningfully enforce their removal from second life. Without that, a linden can just shrug their shoulders and tell them to go to a general sim, without any meaningful followup or enforcement. This enforcement of not allowing underage users is typical of other NSFW online communities, and I'm baffled as to why we are just knowingly allowing minors onto a platform no child or teen has any business of being on. "but how will you even enforce it? i don't want to have to legally confirm my age" that is an entirely different topic altogether. this post is not about the ongoing internet-wide conversation about the methods of how to ensure strict online spaces for adults. this is about changing the baseline TOS. not having a way to confirm an age does not mean we have to just forgo a minimum age requirement baring minors altogether.

So i understand That This subject has been brought up more then 10 times and i feel its being ignored or shut down or not understanding the importance to it from linden labs. I also understand that it REQS you to go in the DATA base, and be tested etc. But! the fact that yal + the group limits But wont take the importance to this matter due it being lack of experience or Not running a club or Corporation or role play Community etc. We Really really! REALLYYYYY need more then 10 Role Limits in the Groups.Am a 2007 player and there is NO way! in Gods green earth this has not been brought up to Linden labs attention in the past and requested. So before u shut this Down Again....... please am asking of you to please tell us in deep detail Why Linden labs keeps shutting this down over n over n over n over. We just want 20 Roles a extra 10 Role limit =20 roles and were Set and yal will never see this pop up again from anyone. and yes... that means me to XD.

Allow Creators/scripters to run an In World hosted database, maybe being premium and an added $5 a year, allowing for faster and more secure(?) hosting.

It's time to address an elephant in the room of SL that has been growing unchecked over the years. There is a lot of explicit bestiality content on Second Life that, at the moment, does not seem to violate the Terms of Service in any way. (Or, if it does, it's not being enforced at all.) Now, when I say "bestiality", I am not referring to furry adult content. I am specifically talking about human avatars being depicted in sexual acts with quadrupedal and usually non-sentient animals like dogs or horses. I'm going to be extremely blunt here when I say this content is detrimental to the Second Life community purely because it shows up uninvited. If you're looking for new places? Searching "roleplay" often shows these bestiality sex sims. Same if you're looking for "furry" places. Hell, even if you enjoy sex sims, that doesn't necessarily mean you want to see depictions of bestiality. It comes up in marketplace searches too. Today, searching "furry" by newest on Marketplace returned a flood of AI-generated (some rather photorealistic) bestiality porn as well. Searching "monster" has also yielded similar results in the past, and if you use any kind of animal/quadruped avatar and want to find content for it? Good luck, because you'll probably run into bestiality content if you search the name of your avatar, unless you disable adult content for the search. My point is that you don't need to go looking for this content. Because of tag spam, and a lack of a blacklist on MP or place search, it's very easy for this (or other extreme content) to show up in results no matter what you're searching. I have to admit I'm confused as to why ageplay is a big no-no as per the TOS that is taken very seriously (which it should be, of course!) but realistic depictions of bestiality go unmoderated and unrestricted, despite it being an illegal practice in many regions in the world and is widely regarded as animal abuse. I think it's long overdue that Linden Lab reconsider the content policy on this type of content, or at the very least, allow us to blacklist it so it's not easy to stumble upon. I would prefer it to be banned from the platform outright, I do not think it has a place here, but I would be satisfied with some kind of blacklist system and/or a "quarantine" of bestaility and other extreme content.

I'm honestly not sure why there needs to be a limit on the number of groups your in, but I'll assume there is some reason. Either way, what I'd love to see are different TYPES of groups created to allow for different limits. Perhaps, say, Shops, Social, and Land... and then Social and Land might count against your account limits, but Shops would not. Right now I have most of my groups eaten up by shops that I paid to be in (for discounts, etc.) and I can't just leave and re-enter as needed.

it would be nice if the polyamourus couples could show there partners insted of just being able to show one partner we could show all of our partners

adding multiple partner boxes for poly families

It would be great if you could implement a keyword blocker for groups to help combat the spam of groups by bots. Like the phishing sites or the Lygon accounts begging for money. If we can block certain words from being used in chat, Maybe it shows a message instead when trying to use blocked words like "This group has limited the use of certain words" It would save a lot of less tech savvy people from losing their accounts when clicking fake marketplace links or supplying the 100L beggars with more free groups to continue spamming.
