Believe it or not, I can relate to that - I'm female and I started this game about 5 years ago playing a male character. Part of the reason to pick a male instead of a female was to avoid getting weird messages and being hit on. And I've been getting at least a few creepy messages since I switched to a FemRoe about 3 years ago. It sucks, it really does.

...when people are doing it to/with our people. Dressing (and moding) their own game and character in that way is, frankly, their buisness. As long as they mind theirs (aka: not uploading harrassing/naked pictures of peoples characters without their consent or sending inappropriate messages), everyone else should mind their own aswell. No need to throw a whole bunch of people under the bus when there is a way to deal with the problem: Report any form of harrassment and have the GMs deal with it.

What you're doing here might be with the right intention, but with an aweful approach. Because you're confusing two things: Those mods and people who abuse them.
Now you're lumping harrassment of a whole different type into aswell - without even knowing wether or not the person who sent weird messages to your nephew was using any mods or not. Believe me: those texts are their own story and one that should be reported, no doubt about that. They are their own problem though and they will most likely continue to be, even if you take away the option for everyone to alter the appearance of their game on their own computer. Even if its just something like changing a hairstyle.

The solution to your problem is to report anyone who is harrassing you (in some cases, as much as it pains me to say that: grow a thicker skin - while this form of harrassment shouldnt be tolerated, you should also not let it get to you) - not to ban mods. Because dont fool yourself: If SE does that, they most likely wont be selective about it. It would mean to take a lot of most likely great stuff away from people who enjoy it, while gaining little regarding the matters you're concerned about.
