A Plea to those that like to be obscene in Castrum

[hynaku]

What's obscene is being put in a party of adult role-players in there with all their lewd macros. Do you find a person that's named Dick offensive? if you do might offend them.

Report it if it's bothering you.

"Offensive expression" means an expression in general that inflicts emotional distress by being offensive to another person.

It is prohibited to do this anywhere an expression can be made, such as all chat channels (including PvP Quick Chat, macros, and emotes), markers, comments, or titles. It is also a violation in cases where a player character name involves a term that could be considered offensive in any way.

Logs will tell the GMs which player placed the markers.

As others have said, you can also remove them either by binding "Clear Waymarks" to a hotbar or by typing /waymark off

To those defending the placement of obscene phrases in game via markers or other methods - it's a nuisance behavior. Stop enabling social idiocy.

So the entire player base needs to adjust to what your kids can see in your screen?

I honestly thought this is going to be about something more serious, e.g.: you have seen some people talking obscene in chat in some of the runs, or something similar.

But I cannot feel sympathetic for the entitlement that your post carries... It is not the full player base's responsibility what your children see on your screen, it is yours...

If it offends YOU, you can report it.

However, saying "my children might see it" is just a parental fail to me.
So many questions come up. Like:
- Why do you let your kids see a game that is for teens+ audiences?
- If you need to be in the same room with your children and they are that young, why are you playing video games?
- If you don't need to pay attention to them cause there is another person in the house then why are they not with them?
- What do you exactly do when half naked catgirls/bois or bunny girls/bois run around the open areas? Or that is okay?
- What do you do when they start spamming the smexy "ah" noises in open areas? Or this is okay too?

The game is rated Teen. And in Europe it is rated 16+. As far as offensive or upsetting things go, there are far worse things than D1CBA4 markers in the game. And if your kids are in middle school or high school, odds are they are hearing far worse stuff on a daily basis in the hallways and locker rooms.

Smart phones were a mistake, you can't even flip them out to look cool as you pop your collar.

Ahem my good sir.

When I saw the thread title I thought jokingly, "oh, what, people writing DIC with markers?" but then that was actually what this is about.

I want off this ride.

This is just an age old meme from ARR. If you find it offensive, do what Jojoya said up above and then let it be if it truly is offensive towards you. Or, you can be a responsible person and just clear all the waymarks and be on your way without causing mental stress to people who may or may not just be having fun. If you ask them, perhaps they won't do it anymore. If they do, well...

Ah, so you would like to compel other people to conform to the playstyle that you prefer? Hmm... I wonder where else I've read those words before...

I mean they're not wrong that it's technically reportable lol. Can't be doing vulgar stuff even if it's extremely minimal

on the other hand if you're actually the type of person to report this kinda stuff instead of just either turning off markers/ignoring it for the 5 seconds you'll see it, idk won't and cant cap but that's pretty sad tbh go water a plant or something

I don't really have a stake in this fight, I don't put up obscene markers unless I'm in a 4/8-stack with only my friends, just as a courtesy to the other people in the instance, but I do think it's kinda funny that both sides of this argument are technically violating ToS.
