Google fends off pornographic Lively rooms

A decidedly tame video plays on the bottom of a pool in a Google Lively chat room called 'porn place.'

Google is having to work to try keeping its Lively online 3D virtual worlds from getting a little too lively.

Despite some injunctions to the contrary, sexual overtones are creeping into Google's cross between a chat room and Second Life.

"We've received complaints about recently created 'sex rooms' in Lively, and we take these complaints seriously," Google said on its Lively group. "Our community standards prohibit sexually explicit images and rooms intended for sexual activity, even if virtual. When we become aware of 'sex rooms' that violate or Terms of Service, we'll work to remove them."

A little snooping around revealed some evidence of borderline rooms, but nothing as risque as shows in the more permissive realm of Second Life.

"So the girls are hidden in here," griped one avatar in one room called SEXY & HOT Monday morning. "Show up," ordered another. There wasn't much in the way of naughty pictures beyond the welcome screen, but some posters in the room linked to girl.cb-w.com, a Web site that sells a guide about "How To Approach Any Woman, Anywhere And Know Exactly What To Say To Get Her To Give You Her Number And Go On A Date With You - NOW."

Another room, called porn place, seemed fairly tame--even the YouTube video playing on the bottom of the pool. Other rooms were called Sexo Virtual, sexy babes, and BDSM Espana.

Google Lively's community standards prohibit nudity and sexually explicit material: "We don't allow nudity, graphic sex acts, or sexually explicit material. This includes making sexual advances toward other users. We also don't allow content that drives traffic to commercial pornography sites or that promotes pedophilia, incest, or bestiality. Google has a zero-tolerance policy against child pornography. If we become aware of child pornography, the content will be removed and we will report it and its owners to the appropriate authorities."

Google wants to keep it clean for mainstream users, and users who violate Google's terms could find themselves banned from Lively and their Google account disabled, Google said.

"When browsing or searching for rooms, some Lively citizens come upon these rooms as the top results, which can erode their Lively experience...Lively is intended to be a place for Lively citizens to connect with each other and express themselves freely and in a safe environment," Google said.

Another example of www.secondlife.com ( Second Life) where child porn is more common then household inside toliets. What is worse is the continue of harrassing users and stealing their inworld income but cancelling their account for the only reason to not take real money (or cashout ) of the game. 1000`s of cancelled ( by Linden lab) account worth way of totally 300,000.00 US Monies. Has many wondering why the owners of Linden Lab " why are we still here "? If Linden lab is becoming the next cheap and cheating company offering free signups accounts. Telling the unknowing signupers that "YOU CAN MAKE MONEY IN SECOND LIFE" without a paying account. is just a lie..... What happens is if your account rakes up over 100,000 Linden dollars Or 350.00 US monies. This sets of a reaction to the account people in Linden Labs to close a account if they are not paying any money in a yearing playment. Even if one has a credit card online. ands made enough money "ingame" to pay for land fees and year payments 72.00 USA monies a year. Alone with owning blackmail tiers per month. Linden labs willlie and tak all your land and assets in land and inworld monies( Linden Dollars). Whats worse is Second Life is nothing more not then a oversized commerical ad that makes its users walk/fly and or travel thurough crappy worthless real life product ads. Coke,Dell,Ben and Jerry icecream.....etc etc etc................To sumup this lieing worthless shame of a companycalled ( Linden Labs ). They claim YOUR WORLD YOUR IMAGENATION..............................................BUT WITH YOUR REAL MONEY AND 15 hours or more a day inworld.Dealing with No Customer serice, Rude inworld ( Linden workers). 10,000`s of 1000`s of under 18 years of age ( oh yes thats right the game id for adults. But there is no liablity on Linden Lab part for stopping 17 years and under ( but mostly 13 to 15 ) are the mean age of kids that SHOULD`NT be in the game to start with.

At the End what happens to the user is all their Assets are taken back by Linden Lab and your account is canncelled. Those that plays since 2002 Beta know this for a fact. They has all their land and inworld Linden Dollars taken from them and barred from the game. All because Linden Labs is too cheap to allow users to life off what then made ingame. So before you decide to get involved in the Sex Game called Second Life..........Be concerned that you are dealing with a minor league team of geeks that coninues to renames their inworld likesness. Along with the the scary reality of the Women likeness your getting involed with is not a woman or even over the age of 18 years of age.............If you havent started playing Second Life.......... Don`t start. All you are to Linden labs is a body in the game that they want you to spend money and every waking moment in the game.......Do yourself a favor......do the REAL Life thing. NA not the Lie and manga Sex that Ssdeond Life prides its self in its offering to its users............
