    Anything you come up with, make sure to compare to the rules at: https://support.na.square-enix.com/f...6&id=5382&la=1

    Specifically these:

    "Offensive expression" means an expression in general that inflicts emotional distress by being offensive to another person. Offensive expression may include:

    ・Aggressive expressions such as violent language/slander/insult/threat.
    ・Expressions that provoke or belittle another person, such as excessive criticism, negation/ridicule
    ・Expressions that significantly lack consideration for another person
    ・Expressions that unilaterally reject another person's opinion
    ・Expressions that any reasonable person would find offensive
    ・Expressions that compel a playing style
    ・Expressions that attempt to unilaterally exclude someone from the game or content/community, etc.
    (Except when in accordance with rules set by an administrator such as a Free Company Master)
    ・Expressions that contravene public order and morals
    ・Other expressions that are offensive to another person
    You have to be very careful in the speech you use in groups. If someone construes one of your expressions as trying to compel them to play a certain way, or they feel left out within the community, or that you completely disagree with their opinion, you could face action on your account.

    Figured I've give the heads up as a sort of public service announcement.


    With that said, everything you said looks like commonsense to me. And I could agree with it. Though with the rules being what they are. I think I'll just keep all of my ingame 'experessions' to my private discord. Though thankfully your suggestion doesn't require anyone speaking in game.

    I understand your concern.

    I was clear that my post was the impression I have received from others, not anything anyone is compelled to do, yet I appreciated why you may not want to discuss that post here.

    I don't mind using discord for things, but it has a much more limited reach for discussion :/

    Thanks for helping make the FFXIV community a fun and welcoming place. If you're not sure you have (and you very likely have), make it a point to be patient or helpful the next time you log in so that you can know you've made a difference.

    If you're on the Aether data center, congratulations! I might be your next exciting adventure healer in the Duty Finder. Please look forward to it.

    Or, if your party doesn’t like the way you’re doing things, they can dismiss you. Majority rules.

    I forget sometimes that USA is really the only country in the world with free speech. Of course I think people should be kind to each other in game, and IRL; but people getting banned from the game for being offensive is crazy to me.

    "the you spank it you tank it" thing is always funny.

    running a pug, one time I remember having a super tank who pulled everything as fast as humanly possible. and everyone was hitting buttons as fast as possible to keep up...then suddenly the dude charges up to the next mob and stops dead in front of it and turns around. everybody in the party is in twitch mode at this point and somebody nails the mob. tank just stands there. and complains about people pulling. i wrote it off as a troll.

    or tank pulls a bunch of mobs in an open area, nearby mob aggros the healer. tank pulls out the "you tank it" BS. I try to pull them off the healer. Healer is trying to run away and keep the tank alive. wipe. next time he tries the same crap. I manage to pull the mob off the healer in time and drop it right accross the tanks aoes. Tank whines about it.

    mistakes happen. whether it's a dps accidentally pulling a mob or a tank mass pulling in the middle of an open area where anybody can aggro passing mobs instead of on the side (or just grabbing all of them). if you get pissy about it expect to wipe.

    American constitutional "free speech" is simply that the government can't put you in jail for talking out of your butt. Aside from that, you can be censured by your not so adoring public and, as always, companies can choose whatever rules they want for their forums. Really, any entity can post rules for their privately owned public spaces and enforce them through bans of a temporary or permanent nature. And that's not even including libel and other things people can sue you for.

    Good point. I wasn't taking into account that online destinations/forums/games are privately owned and therefore get to pick and choose there own rules for speech/content.
