I think SOE's "don't ask don' tell" mod policy is perfectly fine as a compromise; they likely gain some players who enjoy modding.

I've never heard of people being so sensitive that a tank in a bikini forced a player to "confirm or leave" a game they otherwise wanted to play. This game is going on 10 years, longer if you count 1.0, and growing in popularity. I think you'd alienate far more people in the MMO genre then the extremely bizarre minority that "needs" this to play the game and isn't willing to mod quietly. It would be a terrible business decision in this genre and a game that prides character customization and fashion in a shared social setting as core features.

The conform argument is especially strange given they want everyone around them to confirm to their liking instead.

I'll also add that the one person in existence who has panic attacks over their glamors is just simply not a realistic benchmark to have a discussion around. I don't see the point of creating policy over such an extreme anomaly in player psychology.
Well, I'll start by saying even in this thread alone I have seen a large number of people opposed to this idea says things along the lines of "this is an MMO, if you can't deal with the social aspect of glamours, play a single player game" which is the same as "conform of leave", just worded differently. I believe you have also used "this is an MMO" as a reason why this feature shouldn't exist.

The conform argument is not a strange one as anyone who uses a feature such as this would only be effecting themselves. You would still be able to wear whatever you would like, and I would not see it. Other people could still see it, but if I had the toggle on, I would not. They're not the same thing. Using a toggle is not forcing anyone to do anything as it would be a client side feature. Saying people have to accept it or find a different game to play is not equivalent.

Also, in regards to the panic attack thing, again, I have seen a handful of people in this thread already mention that the mere idea of one nobody not seeing their glamour made them extremely uncomfrotable.

If you're okay with a client side mod, you should be okay with a client side feature that does virtually the same thing. You can't be for one and against the other.
