    Well, why not? They can´t really forbid it, also the main grid is for people +18 only (atleast before the grid merge) so they can do whatever they want. Linden Lab makes profit of every member in second life, and if people just make account´s for having virtual sex, it´s ok. But still, it is only a game. You can´t be in love with a avatar, but with a real human.

    Emergence. what a concept. what is Linden Corp's research agenda? technology? simulation? social networking? all of these? That would be an interesting interview. "Prototyping your own life" - SL allows you to prototype products virtual and real and test the market for them. Prototyping yourself is an imaginative concept. We test the waters in 1st life too. this is just a different social arena. and a great venue for research.

    Phillip, Why not include democracy into Second Life? I have the code to create democratic conversations to quickly define the true will of any group.

    Our collective will has never been expressed. It's always been repressed. Once Our will is expressed, it becomes Our reality automatically. That's what the banksters don't want Us to know. Express your will about everything that affects you at Majority Voice. It's the only system of real democracy.

    Second Life innovative? Give me a brake. He just wants to get rich and screw his paying customers? His employees are incompetent fuckups who don't listen to the so called "residents" Get real and wake up people. Don't spend your money to this online scam. It never worked, it doesn't work and it will never work. WAKE UP!!!

    I would like to believe Rosedale,,, but I agree with FoodServe. After spending hours in SL, I think it's less about education than it is about cyber and shopping. Maybe someday that will change... doubtful.

    everyone on second life, is there for the virtual sex. Some bitches will tell you, "I'M HERE FOR THE DANCING". Bitch pleaseeeeeeeee. If you like dancing so much, go dance in the real world. You are here to get fucked, so dont be in denial.

    Blue Mars has no relation to Second Life. How could it be competition when they are completely unrelated?
