I'm not sure if the point is being seen. The ToS likes to be thrown around, but there's another part of it we have to be careful with. I will re-link the URL that is present a few pages back.

・Expressions that compel a playing style

Key Points

It is prohibited to force personal views or disregard the opinions of others. If a report has been filed and the prohibited activity is confirmed, a penalty will be issued.

It is prohibited to make statements such as:

"There's no way we can clear this with [suggestion]."
"Big pulls are normal here, so do it!"
"I don't care what you think, just follow my instructions."
"I'm not asking for your opinion."

Please note that Square Enix may issue a penalty in its discretion even if a report has not been filed but the act was found being conducted in public areas such as Say and Shout, search comments, Party Finder, and online video or streaming services.

■ Point 1
Respecting the opinions of others and expressing your own opinions in the form of a "suggestion" does not constitute a violation.

■ Point 2
Expressing your wishes in the form of a request, as in the following example, does not constitute a violation.

*When offering suggestions or making requests, it's important to include your reasoning. Making suggestions/requests without a clear understanding of the reason often leads the other person to misunderstand your intention. Additionally, making suggestions or requests does not necessarily mean that they must be accepted. When your suggestion/request is rejected, you cannot then criticize or blame others, pressure others or otherwise refuse to respect their opinion, or persistently repeat the same suggestion/request or otherwise attempt to impose your playstyle on others. If a report has been filed and the prohibited activity is confirmed, a penalty will be issued.


It is possible to be able to get what you want with mass pulls. The other party members just need to be convinced that your method is what they want to do. Forcefully pulling for them or being dismissive with no reasoning does not help them to see why they should care about it. Only stating that it benefits yourself solely is not likely to convince them either. If we cannot support our argument, is it truly the more efficient method we claim it to be for the situation?
