I couldn't agree more with your concerns about the modding issue in FFXIV, especially when it comes to the Mare Plugin and its activities. It's truly alarming to see how this is affecting the game's reputation, and I believe it's high time for Square Enix to take action.
The Mare Plugin is not only an illegal mod, but it also creates a divide within the community, leaving those who choose not to engage in such activities feeling outcasted and excluded. As you pointed out, the open display of these activities on social media is a clear violation of the game's TOS, and it's puzzling why Square Enix hasn't taken a stronger stance against it.
We need Yoshi P and the rest of the FFXIV team to step in and put an end to this growing issue. The game's reputation is at stake, and if left unchecked, these modding activities could drive players away and tarnish the image of FFXIV. It's crucial that the dev team takes a stand against illegal mods and enforces strict penalties for those who engage in 18+ activities using these plugins.
We, as a community, must also do our part to combat this problem. Spreading awareness and reporting players who engage in these activities can help to maintain the integrity and spirit of FFXIV. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that Eorzea remains a welcoming place for all players, free from the negative impacts of illegal mods like the Mare Plugin.
