Is Second Life becoming a bit too Dutch?

  0 1 comment

Unfortunately, it seems likely that ING's 'ourvirtualholland' may have to contend with some of the issues found in 'ourrealamsterdam' - take a look at this news report from Reuters' Second Life columnist Warren Ellis (no relation) recorded on his own blog.

Here's a snippet of Warren's report:

<There have been attempts, recently, to downplay the role of sex in Second Life. Anyone’s who’s spent more than a day in-world knows those attempts to be disingenuous at best. The mainland is divided into Mature and PG areas, and any tour of the Mature regions will inevitably feature a collision with the sex business.>

This probably isn't a problem for the broad minded Dutch audiences but may raise an eyebrow or two among ING's customers elsewhere in the (real) world.
