All games submitted under an Operator RLO application with this office must either (1) have an underlying Creator RLO issued by this office, or (2) attest to the Skill Gaming nature of the subject game based on the Operator’s personal review of the underlying Creator RLO, game play, or some combination thereof. Like the Creator RLO, an Operator RLO is an officially required “Reasoned Legal Opinion” drafted by a licensed attorney in good standing, designed to provide Linden Lab with a good faith representation of a given game’s compliance with all existing applicable gaming laws, regulations, and policies, in order to allow for its continued use and propagation on the grid. Additionally, the Operator RLO will provide Linden Lab with a confirmed statement pertaining to game operating procedures on any given sim, including pay in and pay out requirements and procedures, standard maintenance procedures, prim and build ownership requirements of a given game component and/or script, and Linden currency handling accounts (whether Primary or Alternate) as applicable.

Combined RLOs are available for applicants who meet the applicant criteria for both Creators and Operators outlined above, and are offered at discounted rates.
