Let us say that starting this same topic does indeed get one person on 3DX to rethink opening such a room and said person never opens a room with this theme. First, if this person is one of the better people with stronger morals here they would most likely never have considered opening such a room in the first place. I know I never have. But let’s entertain the notion and say you accomplished preventing someone from doing it, as you describe as “worth it.”

 

What I am stating, in doing so, at the same time, these topics only encourage those with faulty morals to open them more. Not only those already opening them but also inspiring those, who had not considered it previously, to do it now.

With that logic no one should ever speak out against anything.  Ever.

God help us all if that ever becomes the normal state of affairs.

Both those and would also love it if they could expand the number of prints available.  Some of them wrap to cover the whole item of clothing, be it top, skirt or dress and the variations you could have if they added different patterns rather than just pictures....

Doubt it will happen but no harm in wistfully daydreaming  

So basically, look the other way and pretend it isn't there?

And by extension make it acceptable to open a room with that word in it's title?

I'm fairly sure gifts still get through.

I've had it happen a couple of times and sent a gift letting them know and to log out and back again, that's always solved it.

Let's hope it's not like the pose editor first  

Plus one for this

I actually disagree with the current system, too. Just so you know that there is some logical coherence in my position. I'm not saying that boot powers are excessive, but being able to permanently stop a subscriber from entering rooms is okay. I think they're both flawed, because a subscriber is determining, unilaterally and without any regard for whether an actual TOS violation has occurred, what access/experience another subscriber is going to have in the game. This won't amount to much if it's only small rooms, but does amount to a concerning significance with rooms that are more medium to large size. 

 

I'm curious as to what system you would propose that would be more effective?

I understand the argument you are making and the position you have adopted, but it's not enough to say that something of this nature is unfair without offering a workable alternative.

The lack of that in your posts is mainly why you are being met with such opposition.

PS  First time I've ever successfully quoted someone so yayyy for me  

Currently if you are hosting and you have someone in your room you don't want there, for whatever reason, good or bad, you can Ignore them, Clear and Close your room and then re-open it and that person on that Avi will not be able to re-enter it.

A 'Boot from room' option would not give a host any more power than they already possess, it would just make the above process quicker, simpler and less inconvenient for everyone else in the room.

So 3DX has a stealth crash ability?

That's kinda cool and annoying all at the same time   

The sound of your partner snoring.........

"Can you hurry up, the footballs starting on the tele in a minute"

"Brace yourself.....  things are about to get weird"

You created a thread giving examples showing how the donate feature could be abused and then used one of the most often used pretexts for a scam as an example of a 'pro' of the feature.

I found that confusing.  

Surely setting up an event for Cancer Research or Autism Awareness, etc and running off with the money should have appeared in your opening post?

You'd still be able to report the room and host as you do now for those.

A filter wont stop someone who's determined, it will just make it a bit harder and remove any doubt as to whether they only intended to open a cheese room.

This is so frustrating.

I was reading through these threads last night and I came across a song someone had posted that I really liked, but I didn’t save it and now I can’t find it.

I can’t remember who posted it, what it was called or which thread it was in (thought it was this one) and because I just clicked the picture to play it, it doesn’t show in my browser history.

I know it was a cover and had really beautiful words.  It’s got to be here somewhere…..

Actually the more I think about a full screen Room Selection menu, the better I like it.

With all the rooms showing no one need pay to bring their room to the top to be seen.

They could make it so you can sort alphabetically or by number of people, maybe add a filterable key word box or two for each room with a drop down menu with words like orgy, colds, no colds, BDSM or whatever so you could view only the rooms most likely to appeal to you.

They could add a chat box for adverts in which only room hosts could post with a 10 or 15 minute delay to ensure every advert could be seen and you’d only see it when you went looking for another room.

Probably loads of other useful stuff could be added too.

Or they could make the Room Selection menu a whole lot bigger, like fill the whole screen, so you can see all the open rooms at a glance.  Just a thought.

I was going to say that I thought number 2 would be quite easy to implement, they could just change the drop down menu box for a free type one as there is for Location, but then people would see 'Interested in' and probably list their hobbies...…    

This would be a nice thing to have.

I gather the clothes work in layers, so a skirt and trousers would be on the same layer and clash I guess.

Although some of the tops do come down over the top of skirts so maybe not completely out of the question.  If you have them different colours though it has an annoying habit of poking through at times.

Maybe duplicating trousers and shorts to the underwear tab and being able to wear them instead of knickers could work?

It would be a nice way to add some customisation to your look.

And bra straps not showing with wide or shoulder-less tops is one of those silly little things that annoys me no end when I so shouldn't let it. 

Oh and I would much prefer to be able to invite friends into my wardrobe rather than change clothes outside of it, that's just personal preferences though.

In the interests of equality I just want to say that when I was at school I used to know someone called Kenneth who was a real stickler for not going over the lines in a colouring book.

It wasn't only Karen    

Alt + F4 simulates your very own server crash

They're pretty frequent now anyway but if you ever get impatient and simply can't wait for the next one, those are the keys for you   

It strikes me from reading all this that most, if not all, are kind of missing the point.

Or rather, you’re missing what is actually being displayed here by the Dev’s.

The simple facts are – rules or no rules – it was deemed acceptable for anyone and everyone to post ads for their rooms in World Chat.

Now, without warning, they are banning anyone and everyone who does that, apparently regardless of how many times it is posted.

And the people being targeted by this action, as they knew it would, form part of the core community of 3DX.

People who invest an incredible amount of time and effort creating rooms, putting together music mixes, striving to create fun and agreeable atmosphere’s in their rooms for the benefit of 3DX.

Basically trying to make 3DX the best place it possibly can be.

I appreciate there are other motives, I’m not naïve.  Frankly I found the war of words waged between some groups in other threads recently very disheartening, but I digress.

The point is, the Dev’s could have treated their core community with a teeny amount of respect and posted a warning here in the forum, on Twitter, Discord, etc.  It would have taken what?  15-20 minutes to type a 2 line warning and copy and paste it a few times.

They chose instead to treat their core community with contempt.

The very people who remain loyal through nightly server crashes, untold bugs and glitches, to make their 3DX creation the standard by which all other like platforms measure themselves.

That’s the most disheartening thing of all.

For the record, I haven’t been banned.  This is just my humble opinion of a very sad day in 3DX’s history.

Not sure which thread it was in but Gizmo once said this was a good idea (think it was within the last 6-8 months) which suggests they looked, or are looking, at adding it, but I don't recall seeing anything since.
