    Server of Freedom

    People were asking for rp server, so why not freedom of speech?

    I mean, a server where we could freely speak about parse, have some constructive critic without getting insult, or with the new TOS, get ban.

    Just an idea,tell me the pro and cons.

    Oh yeah, a server that advertises free speech and open talk about subjects that tend to get people reported in casual environments. What could possibly go wrong?

    The idea makes me uneasy. How much freedom are we talking about, here? Would it specifically be limited to parsing, or is that the beginning of the spectrum? What if other servers on the same Data Center- wouldn't they be at a disadvantage, as they had no choice in partying with this supposed Freedom server? I get the feeling it would turn into chaos, especially if new players join the server without previous knowledge of its policies.

    I also think that there are certain things that SE is forced to watch, like potential death threats or illegal activities. If things like that become widespread, it would be very bad for the company's image.

    TOS is something you have to agree to play the game, so you can't really ask for a place where you wouldn't fear TOS breach and punishment.

    Y: I usually compare FFXIV with a theme park, but the Forbidden Land of Eureka won’t be a place where everyone would want to go. For example, there are people who don’t want to go to horror houses because they don’t see the point in getting scared on purpose. For example, on a date, the boyfriend might want to invite the girlfriend to go the horror house, but the girlfriend just doesn’t seem to find it fun. In other words, it’s not like everyone wants to go to the horror house, but there are people who just love the adrenalin rush they get from it. Think of Eureka as something like that.

    Define these things then. Other than parsing, what else would you need that falls under this 'free speech' umbrella? This goes to you and the OP.

    As in everything goes you can sware, joke about anything have your free view points without snitchs or adult topics without a worry. Simple 2 understand

    The only things that would be bannable on it would be
    Rmt, the dc thing the purposely trolling fights and threats

    Everything else goes and if a person dislikes they can blacklist

    But i wouldn't call it freedom server id call it ntfs server were only 18 year olds are older can get in

    And this, ladies and gentlemen, is a prime example of why a 'server of freedom' is a bad idea. Make a discord server if that's what you want - no need to make an entirely new game server that is, for all intents and purposes, free from the ToS, or at the very least, less likely to draw red flags. You already can swear - you just can't go around dropping f-bombs and cursing at everyone most/all the time. I have never once been the subject of a report, nor have anybody that I know in-game for swearing, having appropriate adult conversations (clearly, you haven't seen how AFKers in Anemos spent their times during initial release).

    While I think that the ToS is overreaching and pushing towards a 'protect feelings' mentally, this right here is just another overblown reaction to something that probably won't affect players that don't act like raging jackasses in game.

    (Fun fact: the things you are talking about already happen on multiple novice networks, and the ToS didn't curb much of anything, so yeah...pointless).

    Acturally doing a server like this is a good idea they could add more adult mode into game settings like gore mode damn i want see blood guts every were ... along with smoking etc
