What Happened To The Age Verification?
Gods know that I am not sure if writing this is a wise idea. It is like calling a sleeping demon from the bottom of the lamp. But Nicholaz passed the question and… *sigh* … let's hope for the best.

No Touching Before Verification
That was the point, right? You cannot touch the hot stuff unless you did that bloody age verification. Because you can watch it for sure. I just did. Read more…
Those Dangerous Little Bastards…
… or how few not so innocent kids dictates what is going on on the Internet. In the case that you spent last hours under the sheets and missed the latest news on official Linden's blog:
The Age Verification feature (now available in beta) will be included in our release candidate today. This means that estate and parcel owners can now voluntarily flag their land if it contains adult content, and Residents can choose to access these restricted parcels by verifying that they are, in fact, adults.

I was standing on Public Help Island when a guy approached and asked for some help with verification. Silently, I cursed the fate and what mentor has to do and headed my browser to Second Life's web-site. But, no way I could help him. He couldn't verify his identity.
