I was at a store inworld browsing, they had some items in the w/e sale. Id bought an item last week from them which I was very pleased with so I thought Id browse the rest while I was there.
Its a child store but they offer (as far as I could see before being ejected) most items for adults also. Id bought a couple of wearable cars last week which were dead cute.

When you enter there is a board with "rules" which I read. I wasn't naked, I wasn't wearing revealing clothes etc etc...so pretty confident I was ok to be there.

Then I got ejected.

I queried this and was told Id been there too long - the rule apparently is 15 minutes. Id allegedly been *idle* , when in fact I was zoom shopping around.

To talk to this store you have to go to their website and ask - which I did, to be told "well you weren't banned" like that's ok?

Isn't this overkill? I understand they might be protecting their child customers but it seems totally overboard tbh.

I suppose I'm being overly sensitive but it irked me.

I get not wanting people loitering but 15 minutes is pretty quick... and many move their cameras more so than their person. ...and every time you buy something it should obviously reset the timer. They obviously don't want business that much.

That's clearly, demonstratably bullshit. I'm sorry.
