1. DECOMMODIFICATION. Burning Life is completely non-commercial. There is no buying or selling in this city...no sponsorships, no logos, no advertising, only acts of unconditional gift-giving that play a large part in Burning culture are acceptable. Builds that seem like advertising will not be allowed. Landmarks to off-playa stores or businesses are not allowed. Tip jars are not allowed.

2. AESTHETIC. We are emulating a temporary desert encampment. We are not building houses or anything that looks permanent or prefab. Trees, grass, gigantic brick buildings, etc. look out of place. If you disregard this, the community reserves the right to vote you off the island ;-) Please join in the spirit of the project, and help make this event a visual whole. Please design with illumination, fabric, art, wood and other lightweight materials! Be imaginative!

3. PARTICIPANT BEHAVIOR. TOS will be strictly in effect; we wlll not tolerate people abusing one another. By building, performing or holding events at Burning Life you accept responsibility for following standard Linden Lab terms of Service and Community Standards. TOS violations will be grounds for removal from the event. We will also be following the Burning Man Network Principles as much as Second Life will allow. http://regionals.burningman.com/network_principles.html

4. STAFF BEHAVIOR. If you are thinking of volunteering to work on the pre-event set-up, read this: The Burning Life Production Team will be a no-drama zone. It's goal-oriented, get-'er-done work, all accomplished behind the scenes. While it's very fun and satisfying, it is no place for a big ego or someone who needs to be the center of attention or in control. It's collaborative. "Team" is a big word around here; be prepared to work with others and be good at reaching a goal, even if the road to it is not the one you might have chosen if working alone!

4. EVENTS. We're trying to get away from the "build it and walk away" model. Consider hosting some get togethers or events at your build. We will provide an online calendar for you to list your events. We will alert you when that's ready for use.

5. MATURITY RATING. Please note: By building, performing or holding events at Burning Life you accept responsibility for maintaining a Mature rating.
