Mod users in FFXIV are getting out of control

[Crystal_Raven]

Is there anything that this generation won't complain about?

Nope. Everything is offensive now.

On that note, your name is triggering me, change name to pamper my feelings.

I'm getting triggered just knowing that someone is fat shaming my fat Chocobo in their head.

Yes. "This generation." That complaining is reserved entirely for old people.

i think all's been pretty much said by now on this topic, but yeah. if someone is harassing you, mods or not, you can report them, simple as that. mods don't have anything to do with harassing.

The person I replied to asked about that, which was why I responded the way that I did. That's all.

And frankly...you don't have any proof for what you said either. Yes, you may be none the wiser, but you can't use a blanket statement like "none of them will bat an eye at you." How do you know? Go dive through Google Scholar and look through the research: most of it points that people do, we just don't like to own up that we do. And clearly enough people did here to harass OP in game and in thread over it (the Au Ra comment in the middle is a pretty good example. Don't need clothes for that statement).

Hyo covered the bulk of it, but I wanted to comment about your post on other MMOs. This is how I know you absolutely have no idea what you're talking about. There are plenty of threads that explicitly discuss 3rd party tools in other MMO forums for their respective games. But none of the has anything to do with FFXIV. Why are you comparing what other forum mods do to what happens here?

Here, I can strawman a ridiculous argument too. They have pandas in WoW... So where's our Viera?

See how ridiculous that sounds, doing comparisons like that which have nothing to do with the actual discussion?

I've seen one MMO destroyed, and one damaged by this kind of behavior, does it not make sense that I don't want people justifying their mod use because of weasel excuses of "oh it's only client side". Because "it's only client side" becomes "QoL", and then it becomes "botting behavior". Go look in the other thread about bots. People do large scale violations with impunity because they've not been slapped on the wrist for small things.

Quit defending third party tools and mods. None of it is needed to play the game, and the life of each content update, and the game as whole is drastically shortened when you suck all the fun out of it in one day.

I don't think it's so much this as it is that SE has been sending a bad message with how poor they are at enforcing their ToS overall.

Even the painfully obvious gil farmers who are hacking through walls and flying around are often allowed to persist for months despite people reporting them. I checked today after seeing a mess of them by questgivers throughout Thanalan and there was close to 100 of them outside of instances on Cactaur alone, and nearly another 100 in instances judging from how players were in their FCs but not showing up in player search.
