They literally joined on 7/15/22. Another Titanman alt?

Your enemy is social media and platforms where kids feel the need to post or exchange about themselves. To name the biggest ones right now; discord and twitter. Those are the main two hubs that I personally see kids make terrible mistakes.

Not TikTok?

It's a game rated T for teens, it has no place in FFXIV. Stop defending it, its disgusting behavior

I wouldn't be so sure.

The actual ESRB rating card displayed when the North American version of the game is starting up says it all: Language. Mild Blood. Sexual Themes. Use of Alcohol. Violence.

been around as long as the internet, no real world application found for random idiots causing a panic, some people enjoy writing intimate scenes and it's not really any more cringy than any other roleplayer playing make believe in fantasy land, or raiders caring about a number no one else does etc, etc...

p easy to avoid it if you don't enjoy it, etc, etc... mind your own business, grow up, so on.

Calling out behavior like this is being a troll? Okay.

Source? Because I call this another lie.
Yoshi-P has a whole legal team watching his every action, saying something like that would mean having a lawsuit on their backs soon as it would not only be against the current game rules, but against the law of most countries.

Redheadturk posted the exact line but it's right here under "Obscene/Indecent Expressions"

because they're lazy and want the government to do it for them.

I mean, that's in a way a reason for governments isnt it? a reason people pay taxes and what not.

then Minority's the problem, not the whole thing.

if 2 consenting adults do something in private I see 0 issues with it.

works same as irl, if 2 adults do "x" in privacy there're no issues with it, when they do it in the middle of the street its an issue.

Oh I agree what happens in private between 2 consenting adults is their business, not mine or anyone else's. Why I said earlier this wouldn't be a problem if everyone kept it private.

The question is: when it's an online environment, just how certain can one adult be that the other person is also an adult?

If the other person is a minor and the interaction gets reported, it could be difficult to convince law enforcement (and a jury if things go that far) that you were 100% unaware that they were a minor.

Is it worth the risk in a place where part of the TOS states that by accepting you acknowledged that other players may be as young as 13 years of age and you agree to act accordingly when there are other places on the internet designed for "mature adult interaction" that usually have some sort of system in place intended to filter out underage users?

(note that when I say "you" I'm not referring to you, Bukachu, specifically, or trying to imply you're doing anything wrong. It's for anyone reading to consider the questions)
