the mod/addon is getting out of hand and is spreading to other platforms JUST STOP!!

I agree with the vast majority of this. I too hope that SE can implement a systemic change to their game that can quash the need to use add-ons. I'm not very optimistic however. In the meantime, I wonder how the game will evolve. I honestly don't want a situation to arise where there is a large gulf between people who have add-ons which (may) provide advantages the average player doesn't have and other folks.

These addons have been used for years at this point, and the only gulf is between those who vehemently abhor addons and those who find nothing wrong with them so long as they are used as intended.

Bear in mind that I'm vehemently and vocally against game automation, which is an entirely separate beast.

I support whats going on to the Hardcore Minority and ERPers who use third party mods. I'm doing my part to make sure they go back to where they belong, Everquest or another dead MMORPG

Basically

"I'm a bully, I want to use the report function to bully people, I have no proof of what they're doing, none at all but SE has enabled me to be a bully"

Careful what you wish for, file enough false reports, you'll find yourself going to jail and sitting on those same "dead" servers you're talking about, because false reporting constitutes as harassment and they do Not take kindly to that.

Edit: Yes, before you say you aren't, that's exactly what you are. These people aren't hurting you, they don't actively go after you, they aren't doing anything to you, but you feel emboldened to go after them because of 4 and 5chan which is straight up against SE's harassment policy and if you keep filing false reports and bragging about it, people will turn around and go "yea you know that William guy who keeps following us around and yelling he's going to report us? let's report him back"

Difference is, you can't prove they have mods, they can prove you're harassing them. So if you really want to put your account at risk, by all means go right ahead.

Get over yourself. Is your life so meaningless that you spend your time virtue signaling and harassing people who aren’t even affecting you?

The internet lets too many people get away with being douchebags with no fear of getting punched in the face.

HAH. I can’t take credit for the paraphrasing of his words.

They also used to operate with the baseline of "no proof, no crime" as well as Fight club rules ("Don't talk about them"). Yet it seems it wasn't enough for some which ultimately lead to SE repeating their warning and stance on those tools. And sadly 5ch mobs decided to test it with group that leaves copious amount of "showing"

Even without mods or addons do you think lewd pictures of FF14 characters wouldn't exist? Look at Overwatch and Fortnite for clear examples of why that's just not a realistic point of view. Its hard for me to believe that the SE devs are that out of touch with the realities of the internet. You can't escape lewd pictures.

I think you either missed the point or are woefully ignorant.

No you're just terrible at making a valid point. Lewds exist with or without mods. People can rip models out of a game and do whatever they want with them. Thats pretty much what theyre doing with the lewd content to begin with. None of it effects you or your gameplay.
