Why so many 18+ related player events in the party finders

[Catwho]

Children have no business there. It's not even made for children.
And 16 year old people are more active in sexual stuff than many adults. They are technically underage, but I guess they are more badass when it comes to that stuff than most 30+ players. xD
Kids under 16 should not be in online MMO's like this one, in general.

You're not wrong, but that's a parenting problem, not a problem that is the responsibility of the GMs in said video game.

If someone's venue advertisement is explicit, you can report it, but if all it's doing is making you uncomfortable by it existing, that's a you problem.

Nobody is forcing you to go to those parties. You can use the duty type filters to look for the kind of content that you actually want to find parties for. I've never seen an 18+ venue advertised in a Hunt or FATE listing.

Maybe you say this to the wrong person. I don't care for that ads. It's fine for me when adult people have fun in private chats and stuff.
I also don't care when shouts contain the word 18+. To be honest, I find it rather ridiculous when people try to ruin other people's fun in a 'game' just because they personally don't like something or want to bring children into FF14, which is a game for 15/16+ originally. It's not SE's fault when other countries make a weird age rating.

You're never going to get rid of advertisements for products you don't like. Not in a video game, not in real life. That's censorship and is generally considered to be a bad thing. Driving along the Interstates in the US, you're bomboarded with advertisements for 18+ massage parlors and strip clubs aimed at the truckers. They don't ban the advertisements because the ads themselves aren't explicit, but everyone knows exactly what they are really advertising.

The 18+ indication is meant to protect the people hosting the parties. And meant to be a KEEP OUT sign to anyone who isn't interested in.

A better solution, and one that SE could actually address with an in game fix, would be allow us to choose which tab of the Party Finder that we personally want to load into when we open the menu, instead of the general one. That way the people who want to see the advertisements for clubs with live DJs could keep the general tab pinned as their start, and people who want to be in Hunts could have that one load as the default.

I'm gonna go make that suggestion right now in the UI forum, actually, because it's a lot more constructive than arguing about it in General.

Häh? xd
Do you even read what I say? I don't care for the ads. I DONT CARE. xD
You should say this to the author of the thread : )
