A thought regarding the ERP issue

Well spoken, friend. Although I would go as far as say it destroys societies.

Gee mister Arano, if there was a series of guilds which had that as a blanket rule that’d sure be swell

While I dislike ERP I do not think an sweeping algorithm is a good solution. It’ll have innocent players banned and the ERPers themselves will simply find a way around it by using slightly different words. It won’t really solve the issue.

Just keep reporting them, and keep them out of your guild.

Well kid, do I have news for you. There’s an award winning series of guilds out there with a rule JUST LIKE THAT.

Arguably the largest and the most ambitious project ever created in WoW. United community with a goal to have fun and do it whilst following very few basic rules?

Check it out.

Goldshire could be a cosy RP hub for town/traveling by RP, but no no, let’s keep it as a brothel for the weirdest kinks. I find it so unsettling when I see worgens and pandas in there, it’s too close to beastiality for me :nauseated_face: But these threads pop up frequently and Blizzard is not blind, they either don’t know how to address the matter in a way that has a long term effect or they don’t care enough. But say specific words on the forum and you’re banned (I know it’s not working in the same way it’s just ironic).

Why don’t they do it in private messages?

All of them were naked, one of them had in his bio he likes women with large chests (though the description was more vulgar) and refered to himself as a “kinky worgen”. He was with a naked human female who had “lustful” to 100% in her MRP, and she was on her knees before him. I put two and two together on that note, the other couple were also naked and as I stated above the male was on his back, and the female was sitting down and standing up on his pelvis over and over. After that they moved to a tree where she stood with her back to him and he with his pelvis literally clipping through her butt. Again, here I put two and two together.

OMG this is so lame

I read that in 2010 they said theyd crack down harder on this issue, but 10 years later nothing much seems to have happened haha

At this point, 10+ years of reporting and posting and ticketing about this subject later, it is patently obvious who the groomers on this server are and what needs to be done to curb the harm they are causing - and as our squeexd bluepost indicated, they have heard us.

The only remaining options are that they have no idea how to moderate or they don’t care.

It easy to say that one is reading but harder to prove one actually is.

Reminder: you will get banned on the forums for rightfully calling someone a jade witch, because that is Inappropriate content for a forum dedicated to a game rated for ages 12 and up.

This is really weird in that it feels like it’s using the exact language people were using to speak up against notorious ERPers as a means to punish them for bringing it up?
Is this paranoia…?

There is a filter already set as a place holder in the game which you choose to manually turn off, HOWEVER. you can report them as others have probably already previously mentioned because that kind of language is not accepted due to the obvious reasons.

Admittedly it might be worth simply on Argent Dawn atleast voiding yourself of going into Elwynn Forest at all, simply due to the nature of what goes on in the zone is far from salvageable

Yeah, I did receive the ban for calling [a certain group of overlords] a bunch of jade witches…

This is my final transmission. Ortellus out.

I’m afraid new players getting into argent Dawn and making a human won’t be able to avoid it, or it will be very hard to do so.

How dare you call this bunch of sleazebags a bunch of sleazebags… :pensive:


It’s a shame, isn’t it, that we genuinely recommend people avoid an entire levelling zone (one will need to quest through Goldshire to progress past it for the Elwynn story), just because a collection of perverts have taken up residence and been accepted as an awkward uncontrollable embarrassment instead of banned and silenced.

Oh I know but then again Blizzard simply choose not to do anything about it since they would have to go against their own standards to address it.

Cause even know we all know whats going on there, the only thing you can technically report the mutes for is the crude profiles at best unless you actually catch them making any reportable posts.

Blizzard GMs play on AD and I have 0 faith in their moderation when I had first hand experience of them shielding ERPers because they were guildies

This kinda confirms that its the same still

edit: screencap this before a mod nukes my post

It’s sad, but I must admit it’s true since all the reports I do, something the mods keep telling us to do, are shoved to the trash and I see the exact same thing happening the day after, I simply leave the zone.
