Reader Submitted: Collection of Places That Restrict Furry Avatars
By Lia (Female Winslet)
The sole purpose of this list is to help furries be able to explore Second Life without running into hostile receptions, including bans or being asked to leave because of their avatars. I understand that some owners may feel their restrictions are justified by a desire for historical accuracy, a certain ambience, or other reasons. The reasons for the restrictions are irrelevant and I do not pass judgment on them. I only note that they exist. However, because I do not want to reward these policies or encourage harassment or other bad behavior, I will not provide landmarks to their locations.
I have reviewed the TOS and this list appears to be completely legal. However, I want it to be very clear that this is ***not*** a list to be used for harassment, punishing, or otherwise acting badly. This is a list of places to avoid so that you don't get instantly ejected, banned, asked to leave, etc. No aggressive acts against any of these locations. If that becomes a problem, I will end this list.
The vendor, the list, and the script are copy and trans, but no mod. This way you can distribute copies of the list if you so desire. But the admonishment not to harass cannot be removed.
For questions, corrections, or to report other places that should be on the list, contact Lia (female.winslet). If you are an owner whose location has been erroneously included, please contact me to let me know and I will correct the list.

Editor's Note: There was a small miscommunication with Lia when she handed me the list, I thinking she intended this for publication. As it turned out, she didn't. But she was okay with it.

I was at Frank's a couple of months ago, several times. There was a regular with large bat wings, horns, a long devil tail. In an impressive vintage tuxedo. He was dancing with his slave, who also had wings. The club-host was on shift. The av with wings and his slave were never asked to leave as far as I could tell, during my visits.
ReplyDeleteSimilarly, I have often seen same-sex couples dancing at Frank's. They are never asked to leave.
ReplyDeleteWell, I wasn't submitting it for publication, but I am fine with it being published. As far as Frank's goes, you can once in a while catch a host or hostess who lets things slide, but it is one of the most notorious venues in all of SL for furry discrimination and homophobia. I was able to verify their policy against furries on their official website, which has since been taken offline. If that's changed, I'd be very interested in hearing about it, but I would need something more than an anonymous internet comment to make me change the listing.

Also, the SL wiki still says the following: "Franks The Elites and Franks Place Jazz Club do not allow non-human avatars to use these facilities. You may be ejected and banned if your avatar has any "non-human" features (tails, cat ears, ect.)."
