vishnu // User SearchWorld Ratings-Guideline requestNov 13, 2002, 5:54am
Hello friends,
I was following the discussion in the "Stop it now, ENZO" thread and thought it might not hurt to start a new thread about world guidelines. Might I humbly request that some sort of general guidelines be posted/published defining what sort of content can be entered into a world? In the following straw-man examples I am using Avatars as an <example> item - a focus for discussion since AV's and sexual content seem to be one point which others have brought up in some other threads in the NG. For example: G: No content showing nudity or expousing any acts which are not in 'Good Taste' ie: a Family and Children friendly world - example AV's must be fully clothed.. PG: might contain content suitable for older children and perhaps allowing AV's with translucent clothing. R: worlds which a a bit more free-wheeling with more open content. Again using AV's as an example, say clothing might be Transparent or <with> genetalia covered. X: these might be worlds where the content is pretty wide open subject to obeying national laws barring hard-core porno/discriminationaly activities/etc... Again using AV's as an example... only allowing the extreme AV styles there ie: totally naked ones... I'm not trying to start a flame war here - I'm just trying to start a rational discussion about these matters as a world owner who would welcome some input. Tckaija/Vishnu |
