So, why isn't this a thing yet?

[Samcaesar]

I've said over and over not everyone is, but what I have said is it will attract pedophiles to the game, because guess what! They can be children and (E)RP all darn day with other pedophiles!

Want to know my reason? Because I'm sick and damn tired of Lolicons polluting industries that could be so much better. Look at what that stuff has to the anime industry? I'm sick and tired of having to look at a series that I think might be interested only to see blatant pandering to lolicons. It isn't natural for a person to find a child attractive, "virtual" or not.

Cristo. Pray-tell what thread that was? Because I'll gladly revive that thread. I generally don't quit a thread unless if it's finals week, I have a busy schedule at work, or I've written a long post and have it gotten deleted due to post limit or something, not because I was "laughed out of it".

Hence the fantasy part. You don't have to deal with the real life faults of your "kawaii waifus" in a fantasy world. But they are still children.

Really? Because I'm said over and over, the big issue is it'll attract pedophiles to the game, because guess what pedophiles want? The ability to express their sexual desires for children. Giving them an avatar to dress up in fishnet stockings and a bikini top and allowing them to (e)rp is exactly what they want.

Reimu, if you got steam, mine is dragongirlviola. This is why we can't have nice things, people can't keep their stupid (and hilariously terrible) opinions to themselves.

Not everyone eRPs, not everyone is a pedophile for playing either the cutesy child-like race or as a child.

You know why the Squeenix forums are cancer? Sam's a good example.

You didn't say "just look at". You said "Fetish". Anyone who has a fetish for loli and shota by definition suffers from pedophilia.

Having a fetish of an animu girl/boy is not the same as being a pedophile. Try harder.

also, Sam, here's the thread; http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...99#post3028199

This isn't the damn dark ages, ladies. People are going to look at loli and shota and there's not a damn thing you can do about it. You can try, but in the end you're going to have a lot of people giggling at your attempts.

By that logic photographs of real children is fine because it's just a photograph, or a hyper realistic render, or a blow up doll. As long as It's not a real child standing in front of you in real life.

No, it isn't. There's a difference between child porn and loli/shota. Do not try to spin words just to meet your joke of an attempt to argue.

You are in the right to have an opinion.

Just remember - it is an opinion.

I am glad you finally admitted what all your ramblings boil down to, tho - "I don't like something, so I will try to bring down whoever likes it". Good job. Seems to me you might be more childish than the pixel children you are trying to desperately defend from inexistant enemies.

Hence the fantasy part. You don't have to deal with the real life faults of your "kawaii waifus" in a fantasy world. But they are still children.

No. They are drawings and pixels. Get over it.

Cheers, I will make sure to add you!

Woahhhh.

Okay first of all, if anything, i would be more concerned about perfume, lingery, jewels industry that put barely 18 yo with makeup making them look younger as their figurehead, than what happens in a cartoonesque mmo. Does that attract pedophiles to, what, cities ? Planet earth ?

Secondly, for you sam to be so concerned about this stuff, and for assuming that so many of your fellow players have pedo issue, it does beg the question... What exactly lies hidden in your psyche ? The first one of suspect others of something are often those that are faced with it every day because they are guilty of it.

So are you attracted to small children, Sam ? Is it the reason you are so worried EVERYONE ELSE is ? Are you struggling with that and is this why you are so concerned about this very topic ?

Personnally, i play lalas cause they are cute, and i don't care one bit about any "sexualisation" ; now if others do, whatever. It is a fantasy game. Everyone find what they want in it. I am honestly much more concerned and creeped out by what may lie in the depths of your psyche than most of the people that you are accusing, because you certainly are bothered by this in a totally unhealthy way.

it's the same thing, they're all depictions of kids.

[Parryacg]

I usually don't like personally attacking people, but this thing gets on my nerves. It's almost as bad as religion and politics talks.

Since I'm near my posting limit, dragongirlviola is my steam page name.

-edit-

No it isn't. Just because you want to jump on the bandwagon with two to three other people doesn't validate your opinion.

Why is child porn illegal? Injury to minors. Why isn't Loli and Shota banned? Because they don't exist in real life.

Oh that thread! Fun one, I didn't bother responding though because Shougon, Nestama, and Noxifer put my thoughts into better words before I could response, pretty good folks. Anyways, I was the last one to respond in that thread with a pleased "Thank god", no point in reviving it because the armor wasn't given unnecessary skin-windows.

Cool, but if you are going to look at loli and shota, please don't act like it's normal. You are looking at pornographic images of drawn children for sexual pleasure you're a "loli/shotacon" a fancy word for pedophile, it's just like if you look at drawn images of anthropomorphic animals for sexual pleasure you're a furry. Or no wait, are they not furries because there's no such thing as anthropomorphic animals in real life? This isn't the dark ages, realize being attracted to children in any fashion is pedophilia.
