I might be wrong but wasn't the point of second life that you could fundamentally do anything you put your mind to ?

create your own world and interact with it however?

Whats the point of having a huge sandbox if all you get to play with are those little preshaped sandcastle buckets. I mean I can understand them segmenting the world(s) to some extent but ...... dress code ? really ? I havn't been subject to a dress code, save for work, since middle school.
