When can we make lalaqotes?

Yes indeed, ERP will always stick around.
But they are ERPing with adult characters which isn't as "bad" as ERPing with child characters.

Their actions most certainly do hurt people. Any proliferation of child pornography is harmful, including animated or simply verbal roleplay. It encourages and emboldens offenders and increases the likelihood of them physically or mentally harming an actual child.

Uh.....Hilda is a hyur/elezen hybrid.

That aside, interspecies relationships are HEAVILY looked down upon in Eorzea.

Well, there is that nice gay couple living with the Tonberrys. Miq and Roe or Hyur...I can't remember. Maybe that's why they're living with the Tonberrys.

I was meaning besides Half-Elezen (believing Elezen and Hyur the only ones able to create mixed race individuals), i truly wish they were a third option to Elezen in game as a playable race (Hyur frame, Elezen movement/ emotes, scalable ears, ect...).

They left their home village because they were in a mixed-species relationship. They stayed with the Tonberries because the Tonberries patched them back up after stabbing them like, just a BUNCH at the start of the dungeon once we cleared Wanderer's Palace the first time.

Alternatively, it gives them a form of release that is not harmful to REAL children. I'd much rather these folks fap to their kiddie toons than abduct a real child. I seriously doubt animated child porn is going to increase the likelihood that a pedo crosses the line, more than the frustration of having NO safe outlets does.

Regardless, other points still stand; it harms the company image as a whole to be associated with things like this. Let the proto-pedos find their safe release elsewhere. Japan has a smorgasbord available!

Got some sauce with that?

Except that isn't what people mean when they say they want a Lalaqote. It may be what you would want, but most are looking for essentially what would result in a child Miqote, yet they want to use the excuse that "she's not a child, she's just short/underdeveloped because she's half Lalafell".

I remember back in the 1.0 beta, someone had posted a screenshot of their redheaded lalafell with ears and a tail. It was the most glorious thing ever. I don't need some pocket sized miqo - give me that lala belly and stoutness with a tail and ears and I'd be thrilled.

Some people here are using the same logic that our usual suspects when charging against video games: violence, women objectification and similar yada yada. A digital character is not real so no one it hurts, before you say anything check my avatar, if I were in charge of this game all NPC would look mature (around their 30) and no Lalas. Why? I can relate to chars around this age more easily.

But there are companies out there that do not want thier products to be connected to certain things, like pedophiles, which child characters used wrong can bring.
Whether or not someone is hurt or not, being associated with something negative can hurt the product and the company.
