From what I've been reading, the modding community self-moderates with this and doesn't allow for Mogstation items to be put up.

I have seen a couple of stories about people being suspended/banned for mods. However they were basically turning the game into porn and posting it all over social media along with their in game names/server. I am sure that doing such things would enrage the creators of this game. Making something prettier is one thing. Completely debasing the content for the sake of a hand shandy is something else entirely.

There are already several sites where you get the Lyse and the new Minfilia Outfit as a Mod, and it's been already reported from a few People to SE.
Not everybody sticks to the rules the Mod-Community is putting up.

I really wish people wouldn't use them simply because it messes up my glams (invisible hands for example) and turns the looks I worked for without mods into a mess. The less I hear and see of them, the better. Keep it in a discord or reddit. I wont see their character as some long haired, lace lingerie wearing model anyway.

Yeah honestly it does really bother me that other players would see my character in a way I did not intend her to be seen.
Especially when folks use those nudie mods....

Okay cool, was just wondering. Saw one person ask someone in one of those threads "How'd you get your character to look that good" (referring to reshade) and the other person didn't answer, while others told him it was a mod.
There is one person I am pretty sure uses a mod, since the eyes, hair and skin textures look quite a bit different, but I am not sure

Oh there are TONS of people posting modded characters in those threads.
Unless there are body hair and nipple options I'm not aware of that is...
Though you can't really prove it's not just a REALLY GOOD edit..

This bothers me a lot as well and is why I refuse to wear certain items I know are modded a lot. We had incidents back when mods first came out of people gleefully showing people what their characters looked like with those sets turned on and it just turned me way off of ever using something like the Thavnarian Bustier or Bolero. Otherwise I don't much care about my character not looking as intended with SFW outfits so long as I don't have to see it.

This. I think the discord community refuses to allow it but the secondary sites don't care. Though I'm pretty sure the only Minfilia outfits I've seen are direct modifications of the item and thus require you to buy it. Though I could be wrong. Either way I cringe every time I see screenshots of people dressed in Lyse or Alma's outfits because SE would be totally in their rights to see it as lost revenue if they even did release those outfits.

Maybe I'm just blind, but after going dozens of pages in "Show your X!" -threads, didn't really spot anything out of ordinary.

As for mods, for example in World of Warcraft, people started to use them back in "vanilla", and are still using them - despite Blizzards attempts to cripple their usage now and then. I remember reading news how WoW "killed" their use, but eventually people once again found way to get their mods back in. Sadly each time it just made modding WoW more and more "malicious", as originally they were simple drag-and-drop files, but nowadays you need that cheating program that triggered WoW's latest major ban-wave.

The line between WoW modding and straight-up cheating/botting is so thin due to Blizzards restrictive new settings, that they even went and un-banned tons of active botters. So it begs to question, is it really worth meddling with modding if it's not really harming game? Do we really want to repeat what Blizzard did with World of Warcraft?

I've had the same thought. Individually-set appearance mods in a communal game seem like a messy business, because each person's setup would be different and it becomes hard to control how a character appears to other players.

It seems far easier when everyone is on the same page, even if that page doesn't have exactly what I'd like to have available on it. I put a lot of work into picking outfits for my characters, and I don't want them to come across looking like something else.

Please tell me the Thavnairian Sarouel is safe.
