How is fetish advertizing not a bannable offense?

You should care if you value your account and ability to play FFXIV. Because rule breaking is a good way to get banned.

Sometimes I'll heavily exaggerate the state of this game as a joke to people outside of it when MMOs comparisons come up. Specifically the recent drama with the erotic duty finder boards. Then I see posts like this and realize if anything I'm under selling how insane it's become.

Fairly easy going and always trying to be reasonable, but I don't see the merit in arguing for this stuff. Vast majority don't want to see this game turn into second life. Devs don't want that. We don't need people assembling brothels' in a board made to find parties for content. The whole argument that kids will find a way (while true to some extent) regardless has never, and will never be a valid comment to this. Making it difficult to seek out the act is a proven method to limit the act itself. Especially when the method of deterrent is something we all want anyway, for this nonsense to be off our duty finder.

Some of these responses really kind of prove that the slippery slope is real.

How is fetish advertising allowed to happen in a game for ages 13 and up?



I refuse to accept that. If one can be banned in this game for things like toxicity, when 'you could just blacklist the toxic player', fetish LFG posters advertising adult content should be disallowed from continuing their practices.

lol I think my blacklist is almost full from putting names of people shouting +18 in every starting town, not sorry, but keep your pervyness to yourselves.

Were you also literally shaking?

I haven't checked the PF in a few weeks so can't say about this specific thing, but I don't doubt that it is not a troll and an actual perv weirdo. I mean, back when I used to check it was full of 18+ ERP advertisement. I find people selling feet pics in a Party Finder of an online game really cringe regardless, would love to see it removed even if there aren't kids involved. Take your erotic fantasies elsewhere, please.

No, but I vomited on my keyboard after reading. Contemplating suing for property damages.
