Roleplay/Partyfinder Discrepancies & Policy Enforcement by GM's

[Silverrr]

I think run sellers are incredibly annoying. I blacklist every single one I see and yet there are new names popping up constantly that i have to blacklist as well, and my blacklist isn't eternal. It makes it even worse that they have the gall to spam their garbage in the roulette section of the PF, openly abusing and miscategorizing their PFs in order to thrust their ads onto everyone who opens the party finder, and SE seems to have no intention of ever doing anything about it. It makes the game look very bad, like it is overrun with RMT and bots and nobody wants to see that.

Then I come in here and see somebody acting like some RP venue ads hidden all the way down at the end of PF in the "other" are somehow a problem that needs to be addressed. Honestly, 99% of people in this game, I'm pretty sure a large chunk of them aren't even aware of that stuff existing because they have no reason to go to the other section. But you can't just ignore the RMT run sellers because they actively force their ads to the top of PF by misusing the roulette section. If anything needs to be addressed, it's this, not the people and venues that help contribute to making the world feel alive.

Why? Who cares about run sellers lol no one uses the roulette section of PF to begin with

Don't go making baseless assertions that just because you don't care, therefore, nobody else does. Whether or not anyone uses the roulette section or not is irrelevant since it still spams the Party Finder with advertisements, and many of them being to the same Discord/Service. Don't get started about Filtering it out either. I shouldn't have to use filters because some people elect to ignore basic considerations for people that actually use the Party Finder.

it fills a section of party finder no one ever uses with advertisement... so what? Looking at the picture of Crystal PF it's the exact same with their club advertisements lmao

Never even defended that in the first place, in fact, I've argued several times that such things should be contained elsewhere. It's not about whether it fills an unused section or not. By default, you will see all sections of the PF, and right at the top are the advertisements. People shouldn't need to filter these out just to stop themselves from seeing people take up their advertisement crusade, which I would argue is blatantly against Terms of Service. It's simply that much open to interpretation that you can realistically ban someone under categories 2.3, 2.8, and 3.9. Yes, spam and unsolicited advertisements through the use of the Party Finder service would be considered Harassment if spam in the way they have. Arguably if they did some investigating then you'd find most are also in breach of categories 2.2, and 3.1.

If you're going to start banning Roleplayers, then you should equally start banning everything that is an unsolicited advertisement, especially selling runs. You don't just apply 1 ruleset for one group of people, then apply another ruleset to another group simply cuz "Lol nobody cares it's done through Roulette which nobody uses".
