Advertising sexual content in party finder

[Zsolen]

oh ok, so remove the ingame chat and the ability to write any text, actually just ban all online games, even if they are rated for the legal age to have sex.

Why would you do any of that? Just ban the people putting teens at risk.

Age for FFXIV is 14. That's a minor.

I think people forget that there's a line in there saying "Online interactions not rated by the ESRB."

While I am not for ERP, I am for minding my own business. If someone wants to do something and it's not directly affecting me, then why make it my problem? There's no reason to. That's just getting upset for no reason and there's nothing that can be done anyways.

Just read the thread. This involves advertising to minors as well as the population as a whole. That can shut the game down very easily in the US and for good reason.

I've seen those creeps asking for feet pics. Not only is this nasty, it's a gateway to much worse. Nasty!

What you haven't seen the folks advertising feet pics in PF and /sh in limsa before? I Logged into limsa and there /sh with feet pic adverts. I was like wth did i just log into. Then PF selling feet pics. This was on Faerie.

It's not advertising to minors if it specifically says 18+. If you're not 18+, why are you going there? Where are the parents monitoring their children? This cancel culture nonsense is getting out of hand. Everyone needs to mind their own business and stop being a damn Karen.

Right. But when it comes to things like ERP and such it gets a bit...complicated, especially with laws in various countries. Just because an interaction is "not rated" doesn't mean it's okay, or even legal in some respects. This really does have the potential to get ugly for SE.

While this may be true, SE can't police EVERY SINGLE PERSON. It's just not humanly possible. And if they remove them from party finder, they'll just find another place to advertise them. They'll still exist.

Crystal has more Brothel PF's than Savage Pick Party PF's xD. They should just make this game rated M and embrace the lewd.

Again, you are right, but all it takes is one person or interaction to cause some major problems.

Considering this has been rampant in WoW for as
long as I can remember, I can't imagine anyone has figured out a proper fix.
