You already can earn lindens. You can camp, or get a job at a place in SL. You can play SL without spending one real world cent. (Except you need an internet connection)

i agree its about fun but i have a business of builders, we can get built about 15 items a day which can be sold for over 600 l$, and there is about 5 builder/scripters in my business.

Exactly. My first account was made back in early 2006, and I have all my mature content filters off. I only run into x-rated content every few months, & that's just an ad or two. I've never done "cyber sex" and I don't go to the "strip clubs", just not my thing. I have plenty of fun in SL though...there's just as much to do as there is by using a web browser to access the internet.

sl is not just about sex and bussinesses its about making friends and having fun there are even chruchs and such which btw people who are not able to leave there homes for medical reasons use to interact and feel part of the world.i myself have been to the mormon sim it was pretty lol. people who havnt played sl shouldnt cast judgment or talk about it becuase what you see on the outside dont mean thats what its all about . these "inside sl" vids are made of mass fail
