Roleplay/Partyfinder Discrepancies & Policy Enforcement by GM's

[GothicGirlGwyn]

lol you'd love it but literally nothing will happened to him even if he threatened your beloved community. There have been countless instances of GMs going rogue and they've never faced consequences about it

Do you not remember or weren't around when it was about mods? There was a GM that went rogue. He found modders social medias, tracked down their accounts and banned them when there was no proof the mods were talked about in game and they weren't anything over 13+. Yoshi-P publicly apologized for this, said the GM was "let go" from the company and then used that time to go into details about mods and 3rd party tools so there was no further confusion on the matter.

Also not sure if this has been posted, but there are people who are getting those false marks/actions removed from their accounts because of this GMs actions.

Regarding RP PF Issue: GM Action Being Removed from Account https://imgur.com/a/T1lmx5R

It seems that as far the GM matter and the one GM's little suspension streak is concerned, the matter is concluded. Suspensions were reverted, players are allowed to use PF for social events so long they follow certain guidelines. Good stuff.

This whole episode however has seeming awoken some members of the playerbase who see it as in their opinion, and at worse as their right, to tell Roleplayers how to play the game, what tools to use, etc.

To those people I will say: You dont like RPers? Ok, you dont have to. But you are a customer, no better or worse than the roleplayers whom you are trying to impose your views on. You have no right to do so, just as we do not try to tell -you- how to play the game. So how about we just go on our merry?

Honestly at this point it doesn't really matter what people's opinion on it is.

We have had people being unsuspended with apologies, we have had records of people's marks being removed as this was in err, we have had confirmation that the GM(s) that have been doing this are going to be dealt with.

RPers are able to use the Other tab to advertise their venues as long as it is within the span of ToS. Periodt.

I think that before continuing with all this, people should read this because it makes clear many things about the intentions of the person who started this or the lack of information that many people have.

"To clear things up, nobody was reported for roleplaying. They were reported for openly and flagrantly advertising explicit sexual interaction both in game and through carrd with gil price sheets for erp activities. They're hiding behind "GOING AFTER INNOCENT ROLEPLAYERS" to hide their degeneracy. And I didn't just report the erp'ers but the runsellers too. It violates ToS. And a lot of people are sick of seeing it.

TL;DR reported about a dozen ERP party finders last night since there were more of them than there were High End Duty parties, wake up and theyre all on the front page of other places having a cry."

"They're fucking monsters. The one time we get a human GM who does more than automated canned responses and they call for his head.

When I spoke to him, he seemed like he was getting ready to do a lot of work. It's my personal opinion that any past reports that have been made of people he decided to take on as well, and do them all in one wave. I can't confirm that. I don't know if he went overboard in some way. But a lot of the people claiming innocence in posts that show their IGN's, are well, very much not and I can't say more than that.

If he did in fact hit some innocent people, that's unfortunate. And should probably be addressed by his team. But I'm almost willing to bet that they arent 100% innocent and were just getting hit with something from the past because he got around to doing it. I've realized I'm not the only person who has been reporting. Apparently this happened on Aether too. Which I do not even play on. I remember in the past my friend was banned for something he did almost 3 weeks prior."

ERP party finders? Please expound upon this, because do you mean a PF that says 18+ Venue at this place or this and that, or did it actually say....hey we're offering ERP ? Please do tell?

There's quest in Southern Thanalan given by U'rahtalo where you shoo of peeping toms. Her words "Ah, marvelous! Not an ogler in sight! You have my gratitude, adventurer. Though...having a good look at you...I suppose I wouldn't mind if you stole a peek now and then. Bet you didn't think my tastes ran that way, hmmm?"

Game. Set. Match.

All of you pearl clutching prudes on a holy war need to keep to your savage content, shut up and go home. Sit down before you fall down. I'm only quoting you to accent my point, and I don't mean this comment towards you, OP /hugs.

Oh yeah because NPCs making comments about their job is totally the same as players openly talking about what they're doing to each other in great details in public spaces. Lmfao. You really think you were onto something? The issue people have with ERP is not sex in itself, it's pornography in a game that is not 18+.

Go and ask it on reddit, I'm just passing information and in any case it should refer to all the PR places that have an 18+
Let's not be stupid, you, me and we all know what happens in those places.

Oh so people that are bonded engaged in ERP to consumate their union are being pornographic? (it's an example) You really need to step back. I find it so rich that so many people are being sanctimonious about this, but have probably grabbed a magazine or saw a video and pretend like they haven't. The lot of you are hypocrites in their lowest form to a point where it's an insult to hypocrites.

Oh it's another one of those people "It's not my job to educate you." I'm not denying that stuff is happening in those clubs, but you have a choice not to go if you don't like it. It is not your duty to crucify those who want to have a good time on their own terms.
