I'll be honest, I used to help run a virtual Cathouse. The girls involved were VERY talented and took their 'job' very seriously, and we never had an unsatisfied customer. For some of the women, it helped them in Reality get over intimacy issues, or escape some real life hardships, much like some escape into a good book.

Those days are gone for numerous reasons, but not due to the lack of quality of the hired.

I run a set of sims, and this is always on my mind.

I don't ask Real life information because frankly, my customers don't want to give that up, and under Linden Labs TOS, that is a violation. With that contract between me and Linden Labs, I could not require RL information if I wanted to.

monthly I clear the costs of 3 'islands' (295/mo ea) and have to wonder if one day everyone will just poof. I doubt it, but it's a risk I take.

As for the client end (renters) they take the risk of me walking away and canceling my islands, but for their anonymousness, they tolerate that risk.

as one of the other posters said, no those rental contracts I have with them are not 'valid' which is why I simply have a pre-pay agreement with a statement of NO REFUNDS. so if you don't like the terms, don't rent.

My only safety net is to keep a reserve big enough to handle a complete loss of clients just before a billing date. It is just me RP'ing a land-lord, but at least my clients RP paying renters.

So, From what I can gather from this article is:
It detects Thermal differences and mannerisms as you approach the portal.

So if you have to take a raging dump because you have a FLU and your nervous about this new "don't worry, act normally" sign you see ahead of you, and your worried you'll get stopped and cause even worse embarrassment to you and your travel partners, your likely to get picked up.

This make me wanna fly just that much more.
