It seems to run well on my PC, the textures load fast with even Toxian giving alright frame rates.

I think the main problem is not that there are laws that apply to the virtual space, but rather that there is almost no enforcement of those laws. Who would enforce the laws and what jurisdiction SecondLife(tm) falls under would have to be up for debate. Unlike many cyberpunk novels there is no Department of Cybercrime nor are there cybercops roaming the grid looking for violation of laws. At least there are none that can issue citations. The most we see are lawyers trolling for copyright infringement so they can make a buck.

I am surprised the themed areas that use trademarked properties are still running. Since most costume parts and scripted objects are pulled from other sources and are sold for the profit of the inworld creator the original creator/copyright holder is losing money.

For all those that cry foul that they spend the $L they earn on land in SL, consider this: If you pay the rent of your store with counterfit goods can you claim that that is legal?

It can't be considered virtual art or for personal use once you sell a copy for any amount of money no matter how tiny. If you don't own the Intellectual Property you shouldn't even be giving copies away. Once lawyers get the scent of money to be made through IP theft, they'll be like sharks scenting blood.

Maybe because she's wearing a Chun Li outfit like in Street Fighter. That avatar has panties.

Here goes nothing,

Oh it's definitely homophobia. But it's so ingrained that they probably don't see it as such.

Lightsnake?

Cellphone stuffs!

Neat stuff!

Wow, that's a lot of stuff!
