Grid "unification" proposal
Second Life Insider
Apr 15th 2007 12:11PM I don't think it's a very good idea. Regardless of whether or not there are teenagers who get along better with adults than they do with teens, there will still always be those annoying little pissants whose main purpose in life is to make your game play miserable.
Plus, the servers are apparently overloaded as it is (what with the removal of the rating system and all). Why add to that problem by allowing the teens to move over as well? Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of trying to lessen the database load?
Then there's the problem of the casinos and strip clubs and escort services, etc. Not to mention the virtual drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, etc in game. There's no surefire guarantee as it is that everyone below the age of 18 are staying off the adult grid. There won't be one if the grids are joined either. At least right now, we can say we did our part trying to keeping the kids out of the strip clubs, hooker's pants, and hash bars (i.e. LL has the designated teen/adult grids, some places won't accept employees without payment info on file, etc).
And I don't even want to get INTO the ageplay situation that would arise, inevitably. *shudders*
I could say more about this, and why I feel like it's a bad idea, but I'm sure to just start rambling. Regardless, I sincerely hope it doesn't happen.
