Its really hard to not see it if you do more than just your daily roulette. Opening the Partyfinder to find a Ultimate Party or going to the Limsa Marketboard to buy something is already enough to get bombarded with that stuff.

but the age controll is on the parents themself noone else
There are other ways to advertise that kind of RP outside of the game and official forums. Discord Servers, Websites, ect. It takes less than 30 seconds to find the FFXIVVenues Website on Google by searching for "FFXIV RP". Expecting parents to always keep an eye on what the child is doing in an story and combat focused mmorpg is really unrealistic.

Ok now seriously. The average age of the xiv playerbase from what I have seen is far over 25. Now imagine an lets say 16 y/o somewhat new player visiting one of the "spicy bathhouse"s out of curiosity after seeing it listed on the Partyfinder. Gets introduced to that kind of RP among players far over his age. ( before someone stops me here now. Yes i know. Not everyone does that kind of RP this way but some are.) It turns my stomach thinking about that the older person might rub a salami while "RPing" with said 16 y/o. Thats some criminal "pdf file" stuff that doesnt belong in an MMO. Especially not that accessible via the In-Game Partyfinder. That kind of RP is still between 2 People and not AI. The age matters.
