Ah yes Ari, context is important but I'll come to that, first of all:

"Fetish clothing, collars, items for use by adults but in reality, this is mature content, use of the content could well be deemed adult but the items themselves are really mature items when being sold."

That was my commentary good sir, not Eyecatcher's. I've always known that sex beds, for example, can be sold on mature land, it's in the brown bag meetings and has been commented on several times by Lindens.

Now context, context is important. When I say it's horrible of Linden Lab to force people to follow this policy I mean it. That's for those who were forced to move and had the decency to say "Yup, we should move". You have to remember that those who got the free moves had to apply and be approved, so someone said "Yes, you meet the criteria". That goes for slapt.me/Eyecatcher by the way.

Secondly, it was the lack of autonomy for private estates, whom should have been allowed a different solution rather than the all or nothing solution LL offered.

As for LL now not enforcing policy, there's nothing hypocritical about that, the policy didn't kick in until September 15th. Now a month on and those who should have moved, and I'm not talking sexbed sellers, I'm talking brothels and free sex places who undoubtedly meet the criteria are able to advertise to a wider audience and therefore gain custom from a wider pool. How is that right that those who stick two fingers up at the rules are allowed to prosper at the expense of those who self flagged, were approved and did what Linden Lab had asked of them?

When I was at office hours prior to Septmeber 15th and people were complaining about adult business on mature land I'd often point out "They're allowed to, the policy hasn't kicked in yet". Again, context.

Context is extremely important. Linden Lab have introduced a poor policy and now it has poor enforcement. I'm not going to accept that all is ok and I still maintain that Linden Lab should have encouraged this with a voluntary program that could have been well into seven months worth of action by now. They chose the path they did and it's a messy and ineffective path.

As for your thrones on PG, not allowed, but whose going to know as you don't advertise them as such as far as I'm aware.
