Asmongold on NSFW mods

[Kozh]

Have you actually spoken to parents?

Yes

Because your opinion does not speak for my child and I.

Cool, but it speak for other parents though.

So please stop weaponizing the generalization of children to make your points.

Please take your own advice.

Gaia looks like 30y old . How's that minor?

[ErryK]

this thread is kinda cringe, ngl

very much virtue signaling and buzz words all around over what is essentially a non-issue.

[Ranaku]

It's not really about parents tho, or is it?

Players clearly have unlawful contact to minors ingame. Not saying every erp fan i a predator, that would be far fetched. But this general lack of interest in what you are ducking there atm is really concerning in my opinion.

It's your obligation as a ERP roleplayer to check who is about to recieve your digital sausages. And to think that people would justify a literal crime just so they can duck in the future without having to check the persons age first is...phew...mental gymnastics...

I started watching Asmons stream yesterday when he was in the middle of this interview and I was kinda taken aback by it.

I don't really mind mods too much cuz you know, I don't see them. It's on the modders pc, not mine. But like many in here wrote before, it's the brazen attitude of modders shoving their NSFW screenshots in peoples faces that I'm not really fond of. Not everyone wants to see this sort of stuff. If you like it, that's fine - but don't assume everybody else wants to see it, too.

The girl Asmon spoke to seemed like such a kind of person, I got the feeling she was really enjoying all the attention she got. That she did the modding community as a whole a big disservice by doing this interview in the way she did, didn't seem to bother her at all. In fact she even said that modding should never be spoken about in such a manner but did it anyways...

Then they showed two relatively tame but still very kinky modded screenshots on stream, and that's where I thought "okay, he could really get in trouble for this now". People were banned for saying and doing stuff on stream before.
Same thing when they talked about the payment-situation. I don't think SE would be glad to know that people make so much money by lewding their gamefiles.

Could be I'm just overthinking this but I wonder if this will have consequences, seeing how much attention Asmon and his streams are getting at the moment.

Reading through this entire thread I am just gunna point out that not everyone who ERP's is grooming minors or some dirty sleazy nonce. Most of the folks I know are over 18 and communicate fully with people :/

Yeah there will always be those creeps and they should get called out underage mods and erp is disgusting and has no place in the game, but it is unfair to throw all those that ERP or use lewd mods under the bus.

We need another calamity

Patience, patience. All good things in time.

...

Yup as wholesome the interview were, it only ended up giving puritans fodder.

Nope, under the bus they go. Its clear that segment of the community can not police itself and thus has to go.

In all honesty I actually think that the rating is too low, especially after having played it again on NG+ there's so much explicit content and pretty extreme levels of sexual violence being referenced.
The game is and always has been full of more late teen to adult content too.

As much as I agree it would benefit from a higher rating, there's certain things, which Theodric mentioned, which are off bounds no matter what that rating is. This sort of thing creates a terrible image for the game, and that is on top of the utter creepiness of said things.
