Mod users in FFXIV are getting out of control

[GetFoesReqd]

You are not a dragon girl, you only play one on TV. You are not your character, and you also bear no physical resemblance to it, unless youre that one guy from the Hyur thread that perfectly and amazingly duplicated himself. Therefore, as no harassment is occurring to a real person, only an imaginary and constructed individual made with tools provided by SE for entertainment purposes and coming part and parcel with 100% IRL anonymity, you are not being harassed. Your character is. Even if people takes nudes of her and spam them all over tumblr or whatever, it does not, in truth, involve you. It involves a cookie cutter nude skin over a cookie cutter au ra body that will look exactly the same as every single other au ra body with that mod on, completely removing the last inkling of the idea that this could be a personal attack.

Your concern is important to you, but it is unfounded in the long run. Therefore the solution should be one YOU create WITHOUT affecting a system that is not actually allowing harassment of you, but rather harassment of a created character with no consciousness, no soul, and very little individuality. I do not say this to be rude, but you do probably need to just accept this and deal with it. No one is going to harass you with nudes of your own character, and moreso, they wouldn't even need your character to do it. All they would have to do is recreate your appearance, take screenshots with the mod on, and lie that its you. You cannot possibly think it fair to remove client side mods because of so many things that the devs cannot control, and indeed, show no desire to control. Sorry, but it is not the big deal you're making it to be, to the vast majority. Most people do not even use these mods to begin with, but even if they did, as long as you do not, then you are not affected.

If you are so afraid someone is looking at your character naked, then realize that if they are, that speaks of them, not of you. You're not perving, they are. And you are not even truly involved in it. If someone creeps on you blacklist them. And I still wonder at how someone would harass you at images of your own naked avatar without you clicking some manner of link or something that you could just NOT click. You can leave discords. All the tools you need are at your hand. There is absolutely no need to ban these client side mods, if that were even possible.
