Well, if Temos/Cos/Selnar doesn't look from 2006, it definitely still carries some old school noob characteristics from 2006.
I was so disappointed, searching for a sim to move my slave house to. I had heard about Temos opening, but after reviewing many of their rules, applications and policies, it just doesn't stand up. Despite the relatively okay build, it's kind of like those backwater sims of Rorus and Sais, and half of the avatars on the sim look like they belong there.
Take a look at this gem here:
Attention all slave owners:
All slaves are required to be registered according to the Law of the Ubarate, and have a current record of slave examination. To aid in the registration effort, we at the Caste of Scribes have prepared this simple slave registration document. Fill it out, attach a slave exam record if you have one, or be sure to schedule one with the Caste of Physicians soon. Then turn it in at the Library or give it to any Scribe.
Our hope is to have all slaves registered and examined by the 4th day of the 3rd hand of the 9th month (Sunday 14 December).
The registration fee will be waived during this time.
Failing to prepare these documents by the posted date may result in fines or stripping of property.

I totally understand voluntary NC paperwork. That's great. But it doesn't look like it's voluntary...
A, 1 Sold only to Island of Cos citizens.
A, 2 MUST have medical exam done.
A, 3 Branding is optional, can hold off on that if potential owner says something before it's done.
A, 4 The slave has been through the mandatory minimum time period in the kennels (5 days).
A, 5 Request must be made to any Slaver and approved by Head Slaver.
A, 6 Slave's city app. must be done.
Hooray for mandatory NC filling and slave exams! If you don't fill out this NC, we'll take it out on you ICly! Yeah, no.
Such a shame. I had a solid team of para-rper slavers ready to go, but we balked when we encountered nothing but oneliners and flexi-noobs one after another after another...
Oh well. Time to try out Turia or Ar
