There has long been an argument put forth that users of Second Life should be able to discuss adult content on the official forums, there has also long been a response along the lines of “Not bloody likely” from Linden Lab. There are concerns about poor promotion and people labelling Second Life as being full of perves, however that happens anyway.
However there have been chinks in the armour, the adult continent of Zindra and moves to an adult rating in Second Life were well intentioned, although I still maintain they were poorly executed, that’s ancient history though and this isn’t the time to go over that.
Then there was a super secret adult forum, created with the assistance of Blondin, where selected users could discuss adult issues in an adult forum. Then along came Viale, there were still calls for a wider adult forum, along came an adult section on the destination guide, which helps adult ventures get promoted to those whom are seeking that kind of content.
Today I was browsing the official forums when I noticed, a lot of recently created threads in a new Adult Forum section. This took me by surprise for two reasons, one I didn’t actually think they’d do it, two, I noticed something on the official site without having to stumble across it on SLUniverse!
