What is ERP?

Since it's not possible for a GM or player to determine what is 18+ NSFW and 18+ "I hate kids" then perhaps it's best to just nuke it all.

I'm not entirely on board with that just yet, but I'm starting to think that's the best solution. I understand the non-erp players want to disavow the ERP side when convenient, but that just makes the public ERP players rules lawyer their way behind the RP players to hide.

A purge may be necessary.

Punishing one group for the actions of another is not really a good message to send out or a good thing to do nor is alienating a large portion of their player base, especially if they've done no wrong. The thing is, they can determine it because they can investigate, they have the tools to do so. Going back to an old interview with YoshiP on the topic of Brothel advertisements, he suggested reporting them to that effect so that they can be investigated for any wrong doing. They moderate on case-by-case basis, not by blanketly going after people who fall into a certain group. I think if they didn't moderate on case-by-case basis we should all be worried about unfair GM actions being taken against us.

Perhaps, but when one group disguises themselves in another it may become necessary to remove the entire group.

I don't think this needs to happen right now, but it's looking increasingly likely this will be necessary if the community can't learn boundaries.
