edit: Putting this here "ITS NOT JUST BALMUNG". Read the last paragraph please.

I'm not going to talk too much about mare or mods because I already have before. But I want to speak about the rampant sexual advances of the community. Yesterday I got flirted on by 6 different people while I was on my NA character on crystal balmung. I wasn't wearing anything enticing. I don't have any lewd search info. This guy just randomly said hi to me and I said hi back. They proceeded to ask me if I had mare and I said no, they did asked if I wanted some bbc with a winky face. I didn't respond.

Not even 2mins later this female miqo'te said I was cute and I said thanks. Once again asked if I had mare and I said I don't use mods and they said that's ok and then they talked to me normally until they made hints to me they had a "big dick" and asked If I wanted to go to a random corner in that to see. I logged off. Logged back in and got hint on by 4 other people that day each and every one of them tried to erp with me or cyber.

The lewdness of this community is out of control. Then when I was hanging out and looking at people adventure plates, the sheer amount of people making lewd poses with their adventure plates was totally disturbing or disgusting. I was tempted to report but I didn't and as I mentioned before , don't get me started on the amount of people that have "mare" in their search info. Mare is so normalized it's actually Worrying why SE isn't just taking these people in jail and suspending them since they're obviously breaking the rules. That or the rules is extremely lax with NA GM's or the sheer amount of people that do it is too much for them so they choose to let it go.

Even party finder isn't safe with people trying to sell their only fans or hint at it by showing people their feet and people listing their drawing on stream, it's just a lure because the artist is always a nsfw artist if you look at their socials to get people to com them.

I'm honestly not sure why this game attracts so much lewd players and they fully display it for all to see I'm not against people being lewd but there are better places to express it than inside FFXIV. Not everybody wants to be exposed to hyper sexuality all the time and unfortunately it's extremely hard to escape it in FFXIV. You suffer and just deal with getting flirted with or you be extremely antisocial and not talk to anybody and be lonely. The hyper lewdness of the game is out of control and unfortunately SE has made it fester out of control there is no way to stop it without getting rid of a large portion of the western playbase. People are already prepping their terrible modded faces for DT. Ripping the DT models and fixing their mods according to it.

Not even DT new graphics update are stopping these people. This game will forever be this Hypersexual game. These types of mods are the reason why normal rp is harder to find than erp. These people are relentless. I'm sad DT couldn't at least halt these people for awhile.

I want to watch my wording because last time my thread got locked. I'm not trying to fight but I just feel this game has gotten to the point it's basically 18 . Erp is out of control, everybody assumes you have mare like it's a requirement to speak to them, nightclubs have took over the majority of RP. To have any normal experience with the game you have to basically be a raider or not speak with anybody outside your static and just stay on busy.

The social aspect of this game is no longer all ages, it's just outright 18 . People will try to have sex with your character and want your mare because it's so normalized. As I said, it's a shame DT won't a least halt these people even for a week. I seen many people on Twitter say they're not even going to play DT until penumbra, mare, texttool and quick launcher are working.

It's sad this is what the community is now. A festering problem too deep SE can't even dig it out now.

I also want to say it's not just balmung. It's aether too. To be quiet honest with you, it's sometimes worse for me on Gilgamesh and jenova. People tend to want to sext with me on discord or cyber in-game. So it went from usually erp on balmung to cyber and wanting to vc sex on aether. On aether people talk to you normally for awhile until they move in for the flirting after they made you feel comfortable.
