"Fight club rules" are not rules, and it's incredibly self-centered to just accept it as the best solution because it has no affect on you, while people who have realistically done nothing wrong get punished for it. The biggest problem is the inconsistency and the grey area created by this method, which allows everything you describe that you are mad at to take place. If ACT and UI tweaks were allowed, the streamer wouldn't have gotten mass reported and banned for it.

I'd like to reiterate that WoW is not a fair comparison at all because the harassment rules don't just vanish when just using ACT isn't a bannable offense. Square does and still will ban people for harassing others over their performance, and this should never change, even if ACT is allowed to be used. The culture of the games is still totally different, and the fact is that mods have been a part of XIV culture for a long time.

We are not asking for links to be posted on the launcher, we're not asking for an official endorsement, and for the love of God we're not asking for them to become mandatory. We're trying to criticize square for being criminally vague in their rules and inconsistent in their rulings, both of which are deserving of discussion and criticism. All most of us want is to play the game in peace with these tools without the fear that some goblin is going to try and dig up evidence to use in a GM report so we get banned for it. Anyone who still wants to use cheat plugins or harass people can catch a ban, as they rightly deserve.
