On a world like Sarg that I played on for like a year, I highly doubt what you see there is comparable to Balmung.

Edit to add: Yoshi P has expressed joy in interviews when players meet him and tell him how they found their SO through XIV and have children. You are in absolutely no right to dictate how people use the social aspect of XIV. It's not a dating app, obviously. But there's a chat function and an RP tag, the people using it in front of you are well within reason to enjoy the game beyond whatever it is you do on a daily.
What else is Yoshi-P supposed to say? Of course he's going to say that is great. He doesn't want a PR nightmare on his hands or you guys jumping down his throat like you're doing to me lol. Yes, Sargatanas doesn't have the erp problem some other servers have but I do run across the odd bit every once and a while and more often its the PDA emote spammers annoying everyone in public places. The second your fun impedes my fun is where I draw the line. Normal RP is fine as long as it isn't spammy imo. Though judging by the OPs server, where he was located, and his description in the original post I sincerely doubt its wholesome RP. *shrugs*

Disruption of one's game play with the deliberate intent to cause distress and was meant to garner a reaction caused by a few brats with attitudes like yours. It's against ToS to be disruptive with the intention to harass.

People who are saying to filter, turn off effects, move their conversation to a separate chat window, all I can say is why should they have to? I suggest for OP to report these fools and for those that don't like RP'ers. Then YOU move that chat to a different window, filter it and move along. Again Eorzea is a big world with plenty of room for different play styles.
That goes both ways. We're also paying to play the same game. Game is rated "T" in the United States which means it's targeted at ages 13 and up so you have minors playing this game. Do what you want, but if it isn't family suitable its getting reported. Spam emotes and its getting reported. Break the TOS and its getting reported. Also, I was agreeing with you in part which you seem to miss. The guys spamming and bothering the OP are also in the wrong. But so are the people who spam the pda emotes repeatedly in hub areas. Nobody cares that "you're in loooooove". It's just obnoxious and unnecessary. Keep it to tells or other private chats.
