This thread is an example of the state of the community in the wake of the ToS clarification. Toxic discussions are pushed out of the game and into off-game platforms, such as the forums and other sites and applications like Discord. You would be surprised at the toxicity of some FCs and FFXIV communities that don't occur in-game. The ToS only pushes communication out of the game and into spaces that are largely unmoderated. Once you peel off the friendly veneer that Square Enix likes to promote, you reveal a lot of mean-spiritedness that exists among the FFXIV player base. Is it because co-op games naturally make people angry at their teammates, or that social games naturally breed social friction? Or is this because Square Enix moved discussion to the Wild West of internet platforms where no one moderates anyway, leading people to become vicious behind anonymity? And is there anything we can do to fix it?
