Roleplay/Partyfinder Discrepancies & Policy Enforcement by GM's

[Kaurhz]

Very few of the venues that were taken down "Publicly" announced such activities. I hardly think having a message that says [E/RP 18+] is publicly ERP'ing. And that's the extent of what most venues advertise with.

It is publicly disclosing the possibility of it, which makes it open to those who are considered vulnerable/minors. So I am inclined to say that it could be interpreted as violating 3.3 (Agree to act accordingly. - I hope you don't plan on arguing against this point). Since I didn't make it clear and worded it poorly. Let's say it creates an easily accessible situation whereby a minor would have access to something they otherwise quite arguably shouldn't, which arguably violates clause 3.6. Whether or not it specifies 18+ doesn't matter. There's nothing actually enforcing it.

I mean there's nothing illegal with erotica in the real world. Also I might be biased but I consider myself a reasonable person that never really considered the RP/ERP advertisements offensive? Most of them are pretty on the nose. "Come visit us, here is our theme!" About sums it up.

This just seems rather puritan to me, at a certain point we can say short skirts are offensive or wearing no armor in Limsa.

Sure there's nothing against erotica in the real world, or online if you completely ignore the factor of potentially doing it with a minor. There's a reason I emboldened the Ages 13 and up section.

I don't consider them offensive, personally. But there are situations where making it openly and easily accessible is dangerous.
