-===Events Posting Rules===
+# Go to '''[http://secondlife.com/events the Events page]'''.
+# Click '''Submit New Event'''.

+# Read the rules, comply, and post.
-You may currently post up to 5 events per day (including event edits). In addition, your friends are able to post events on a parcel that you own. However, you must set that parcel to show up in in the '''Places''' tab of the Search window as a Hangout (in the '''Options''' tab of the About Land window). If your parcel is not set up as a Hangout, the parcel is not available to your friends, but is still subject to other availability rules.
-To further clarify, you may post an event on a parcel if:
-* You personally own the parcel and it is at least 512 square meters in size.
-* The parcel is owned by a [[What are groups?|group]] that you are a member of, and is at least 512 square meters.
-* The parcel is in a private island that you are on the access list of, and is at least 512 square meters.
-* The parcel belongs to Governor Linden and is set to show in Search Places as a Hangout.
-* The parcel belongs to a friend, it is set to show in Search Places as a Hangout, and is at least 512 square meters.
-* The parcel has a name.
-* The parcel has a landing point set (for [[SLurl]]s to events to function properly, the parcel's '''Teleport Routing''' must be set to '''Landing Point'''; this can be found on the '''Options''' tab of the About Land window).
-An event is defined as a special group activity that is led by a host on land owned either by the host or by a group the host belongs to. Examples include discussions, group meetings, hosted dances, classes, tours, and competitions.
-An event is framed by a beginning and an end time. Thus, "24hr Sales" are not events.
-The "Commercial" category was created for the purpose of grand openings, demonstrations, product launches etc. Each of these types of events should have a clear beginning and end time attached. Otherwise, they belong in the Second Life® Classifieds, not the Events calendar. Posting events that are simply advertisements is not acceptable.
-The use of alts to post more than 5 events per day will not be permitted either.
-The event descriptions need to conform to PG guidelines, consistent with the overall Second Life website policy -- so no overt sex descriptions; sex for money, sex chat, simulated sex, strong violence, or anything else broadly offensive.
-Mature events must be listed as Mature, and held in M-rated regions.
-Respect the work of others -- respect copyrights and trademarks! Event hosts are responsible for making sure that all applicable rights and permissions are in order. See [https://secondlife.com/corporate/dmca.php Digital Millenium Copyright Act] for more information about Copyrights and Second Life.
