Roleplay/Partyfinder Discrepancies & Policy Enforcement by GM's

i do want to know from where did you get that info? there is no official poll, or any way to see how only 5% of the player population are the role players, when about 65% of the population (as per all DCs) havent clear eden in savage based in the last fflogs data

edit to add numbers
FF current players 24,255,566
5% = 1,212,778 (refered as the amount of role players)
65% = 15,766,117 (refered as the amount of ppl without raiding data)

Lol, this is a silly assumption, just because I don’t raid on savage tier doesn’t mean I rp. I don’t do savage because it’s way too difficult for me. I’m certain there are a lot of players like me who just don’t care for savage. Just because we don’t care for savage doesn’t mean we rp, lol. Additionally, some people opt out of data posting on fflogs as well (myself included because I find it rude but that’s for a different thread). My point is using fflogs data to determine who rps is a very poor way to measure who rps. It’s not a reliable number at all.

is the why i was asking from where the 5% comes front, there is no official way to know what activities anyone is engaging, my question was related to the 5% number so i when out and got what ever number i found in data that whoever knows gather and trow it there. there is no way for us to know, the actual numbers

Actually it was both. I reread the interview recently. this was after that thread about people using autoclickers for buying houses. In an interview they clarified their position on third party tools and they covered mods, including lewd mods and parsers, ACT was mentioned by name and there were references to FFLogs too.

But I really don't get this divide mentality going on in the forums this past couple of days between "raider" and "RPer" and you're just playing to it too by now making a blanket statement about RPers. RPers raid. RPers make up casual players, semi casual players, hardcore players, hardcore elitists. One of my officers who runs a lot of our RP's is one of the first people on our datacentre to clear Ultimate Alexander as MNK. I get into conversations about end game content with other RPers. My RP focused FC runs raids on Sundays.

Sure there is a subset of RPers who are also casual players and only embrace the game for casual content and RP, but you also have people who well, just play for the casual content too. They're just a subset of players and has nothing to do with RP or people's interest in RP. I mean, of course nothing wrong with being casual, but yeah, folks need to stop crapping on what other people get out of the game. I can understand people being disappointed by the loss of Ultimate too, especially with the last Savage Tier already out and nothing more to come until Endwalker.

you never get banned just for using ACT. That's why you don't see streamers banned for it even though they have it open on the screen broadday. And I never said there's literally 0 overlap between rpers and raiders but like... even in this thread I have seen mad rpers response basically be "go back to doing your savage waaaaah!" (running content is a bad thing now? lmao) but I haven't seen a single person say "this is what you rp people get it's your guys fault that we're not getting an ultimate next patch!!" which seems to be a narrative i've seen some people trying to push, like the one I was responding earlier to
