Asmongold on NSFW mods

[Kolsykol]

I find using the minors for some moral issues to be silly. For one, it is the parents jobs to teach kids right and wrong. What to do and not. So them even being online in a social settings. Second off kids keep doing this sort of thing at a younger and younger age, even when I was growing up. My best friend in middle school was active in this way. My view point is. Better for them to get kicks off in a fantasy than have life ruined.


Point is the game is rated T for sexual themes, and all that stuff and teens are sexual. It can't be helped. It is not the community job to care about bad parenting.

Hopefully something is done about the problem. I used to really enjoy role-play and yet ended up quitting as a consequence of repeated unwanted advances on both an IC and OOC front. (IC = In Character, OOC = Out Of Character).

Worse yet, more often than not nobody involved bothered to even ask my age at the time. Which should set off all sorts of red flags.

A lot of people have become pretty brazen about it, too. I can't look through the FFXIV hashtag on Twitter without seeing it and a number of role-players on Balmung and Mateus have explicit links in their character's search info.

People are allowed to roleplay how they want, this attempt at policing what other people do with their own characters is pretty damn tiresome.
People shouldn't be banned for playing the game differently than you.

With that said unwanted advances are not okay and I've dealt with this too, including people that don't back off.
I've actually had this happen from the same person in my Raid Roulette and everytime I told him to stop he basically was all like '' you know that you want me uwu :3 '' just constantly.
He was basically roleplaying as some lewd catboy playboy and being really creepy and forceful about it, it wasn't cute or funny it felt really predatory.

Obviously it's not that serious in a video game, but it's extremely frustrating and creepy to deal with.
Not to mention incredibly cringe.
However the reason why that should be a ban is not because it's ERP or sexual, it's because it's harassment.

Just generally speaking policing what adults do because kids exist is toxic as all hell and I hate it.
And the game is not kid friendly to begin with.

The problem there isn't ERP the problem is sexual predators like how I mentioned above the problem isn't ERP either it's harassment.
Someone can be a sexual predator and harasser to an adult too.
I think that people have a tendency to try and shift the problem to be about something else instead of actually dealing with the actual problem.

Just generally speaking tho adults shouldn't be ERP:ing with kids.
If teenagers ERP with other teenagers then in all honesty I don't think that's a problem, people need to stop pretending like teenagers are asexual.
But I think it's reasonable to separate that from actual adults.

Glamour modding is one thing but what these NSFW molders do is disgusting.

I mean that's a pretty broad thing to say.
Like if you're going to sit here and moralize about modders making mods for adult characters for fun then quite frankly I think you just need to mind your own business.
But if we're talking about underage characters and such then obviously it's different.

I just think that people need to stop throwing it all into the same basket.
It's not the same and people need to stop just generalizing and oversimplifying.
