Can we do something about the ERP spam?

[Zer0]

Seriously every major city is just bombarded in Shout chat with "GUYS MY CLUB IS OPEN!!11!" Or venue, or tavern, or bar or whatever. And more than half the time it's not even somebody on my dang world doing it. It's all ERP chat recruitment. Between that and Kink Fellowship Finder there is too much being allowed in this game.

Can we start banning this again?

I was never quite clear on if they allowed this in PF.
Though I feel they'll continue to allow this in shout chat. Role Play, E or not is generally not disallowed per se.

I opened this thread thinking there was an epidemic of people erping out in the open with hilarious receipts.

I feel cheated and lied to.

I mean you'd have to stop FC ads too because people would just advert their FC AND their venue instead, and that wouldn't blow over too well.

It's really not that big of a deal and imo you're overreacting.

Go look up those fellowship finders. There's people flat out talking about ERP in game in them.

[AbysmalDuck]

There's one club that shouts in cities that has straight NSFW on the link they shout and yet they are still around. The GMs apparently don't care about this. Alongside the many, looking for whatever in PF that is always kink driven.

Only public Erping I've seen is two naked highlanders under a bridge in Gridania

You're making a big assumption that venues equal certain activities even when many of them explicitly forbid it. I think people should be allowed to advertise their social venues becuase they are part of the thriving social enviroment in FFXIV and thus a big reason as to why the game is so successful. SE is never going to do anything about it - and honestly, I don't see how it affects you in any detrimental fashion. Anything can become a problem if you want it bad enough.

Sickness must be purged.

However, the GMs won't really do anything. You'd be tilting at windmills to try to get action taken.

lol just ignore it
