Roleplay/Partyfinder Discrepancies & Policy Enforcement by GM's

Fellowships in their current incarnation, are garbage. Limited number of member space.

To be fair, 1000 is a very large "limited member space", but it does get exceeded sometimes and cause second fellowships to have to get made.

I think that before continuing with all this, people should read this because it makes clear many things about the intentions of the person who started this or the lack of information that many people have.

"To clear things up, nobody was reported for roleplaying. They were reported for openly and flagrantly advertising explicit sexual interaction both in game and through carrd with gil price sheets for erp activities. They're hiding behind "GOING AFTER INNOCENT ROLEPLAYERS" to hide their degeneracy. And I didn't just report the erp'ers but the runsellers too. It violates ToS. And a lot of people are sick of seeing it.

TL;DR reported about a dozen ERP party finders last night since there were more of them than there were High End Duty parties, wake up and theyre all on the front page of other places having a cry."

"They're fucking monsters. The one time we get a human GM who does more than automated canned responses and they call for his head.

When I spoke to him, he seemed like he was getting ready to do a lot of work. It's my personal opinion that any past reports that have been made of people he decided to take on as well, and do them all in one wave. I can't confirm that. I don't know if he went overboard in some way. But a lot of the people claiming innocence in posts that show their IGN's, are well, very much not and I can't say more than that.

If he did in fact hit some innocent people, that's unfortunate. And should probably be addressed by his team. But I'm almost willing to bet that they arent 100% innocent and were just getting hit with something from the past because he got around to doing it. I've realized I'm not the only person who has been reporting. Apparently this happened on Aether too. Which I do not even play on. I remember in the past my friend was banned for something he did almost 3 weeks prior."

ERP party finders? Please expound upon this, because do you mean a PF that says 18+ Venue at this place or this and that, or did it actually say....hey we're offering ERP ? Please do tell?

Go and ask it on reddit, I'm just passing information and in any case it should refer to all the PR places that have an 18+
Let's not be stupid, you, me and we all know what happens in those places.

Oh it's another one of those people "It's not my job to educate you." I'm not denying that stuff is happening in those clubs, but you have a choice not to go if you don't like it. It is not your duty to crucify those who want to have a good time on their own terms.

[Nowah]

I have only one thing to say... do they need some Aloe for that sweet BURN!!

I don't care what people do in this game but if instead of coming to talk to me, I will dedicate you to reading the post that I put, you would understand what the OP intends

Reading that almost sounds like virtue signaling with a bit of "Deus Vult against Degeneracy xDDD!!"

For the most part, most do not, there's a big difference in 18+ and ERP venues. Those who RP typically know the difference. The assumption outside is that 18+ connotates a certain type of play. That said, nightly there are a number that link to websites detailing services offered.

Ex: Erotic Roleplay (ERP) includes...

I host 18+ events, and have for years as the company of adults is preferred both socially and for comfort. Nobody here knows what the images above actually reference, it's not available to us. It's not black and white, no matter how polar we want to make ourselves. It's not a GM hating on RP. We can be fairly sure it's not just about venues that prefer to cater to adults. If we reasonably ask each other 'what' the goal was, the answer is pretty clear. The GM went about it wrong.

ERP should be kept private, between consenting adults. It shouldn't be front and center for public view.

Totally agree, ERP should be private, between consenting adults. The previous point - I've seen the difference between the two. Most folks go to have a good time, and in the off chance something happens, it's between consenting adults.

Well, I have been in several places both in Crystal and Primal and I know what happens, in Crystal we participated in a VERY crowded place in Morbol where some friends (4 lalas) paid a girl for ERP and in the statement they never mentioned from this.

LuckySeven, which is a guild that at the time communicated through the cities in Hyperion, I never participated but my guild mates did and they told me everything. You can put 18+ but in the end you do not control who enters these places or what can be done, there is also no way to verify the age of the people. It is a serious ideal world as you propose it but the community of this game has degenerated the ERP quite a few and now they believe that automatically any place 18+ is ERP and since you have no way to control anything, then problems come.

If I want, I can ask for names of the places because I have been to many and in all of them it was the same, the only places where nothing ever happened was precisely in places where that 18+ was not and I tell you because we had a PR Bar in Spanish.
