Come on'n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rules—just don't break the weather control network.

There definitely have to be some kind of rules, or a lot of holodecks, otherwise there'd probably always be a long ass line of people waiting to do various things with their various bits.
Doesn’t Quark constantly try to peddle his vulcan love slave program? There is definitely a market for holo "entertainment", though perhaps not on a federation starship.
Not sure why there aren’t constant queues of people waiting to fuck a virtual person, maybe it’s not as fun as the real thing or so ubiquitous that it really isn’t anything special any more
My guess is that on a star ship you're only allowed a certain amount of time, and there are probably some kinds of rules about the... Nature... Of the programs that the computer won't let you override.
At quark's it's probably just too expensive. Pay by the minute. Only the horniest can afford to spend that long in there.
If we figure out this whole telemere lengthening thing and I live long enough, though, I fully plan on figuring out how to have my own holodeck. And I have no shame in admitting that I will be using holoporn programs. Especially since you can use your voice to create a program.
"Computer, generate debauchery, level 9!"
Don't do it to yourself, man. You think you'll have control, then next thing you know, you've been in for a week straight, and you're staring at Genghis Khan and Evil Lincoln.
Why do you think I ordered debauchery level 9?
Why settle for 9 when you can make one with a knob that goes to 11?
Debauchery level 11 is outlawed in federation space. Even the Breen do not allow level 11! I have heard that Grand Nafus Rom is preparing to outlaw it in Ferengi space as well.
Riker once tried level 11. He was never the same afterwards.
So you’re sayin I’m gonna have to travel all the way to the Gamma quadrant if I want to crank it to 11?
No. The Romulans allow level 12. But if you do go to the gamma quadrant, they allow for Blatant Unrepentant Sinner Level 10. But no humanoid has ever survived it. Major Death By Snusnu vibes.
Is that the one where you bang as salamanders?
Exactly!

My friend, you need to watch Lower Decks.
