https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/vs0yv9/this_is_absolutely_hilarious/

Basically, a Free Company (i.e. a player guild) put up REAL bill board ads advertising their erotic roleplay parties hosted in the game.

Worst of all, the ad contains the official FF14 logo, mods used to model the characters and datamined outfits not yet available in game. Can't do any of that, especially the copyright infringement with the logo. and when the FC was confronted with this, their response was basically "lmao who they gonna sue?"

WHO DO YOU THINK?

Isn't it an ERP group as well? That's what I saw suggested on the reddit at least.

I hope this doesn't come with actual bans for mod usage. I use mods and I would hate for them to be removed

Doubtful as no way for them to know unless you stream with them on.

Yeah, I wonder if they'll go after mod makers tho. If they can't keep updating the mods to work on new patches then it's a moot point
They said they wouldn't implement some way to detect mods because of privacy or whatever but I wonder if that's a law or just Yoshi-P being respectful.

Just go to Limsa in Balmung and you'll be good. Thing is, they advertise but not this poorly.

The leader of that FC is banned for 14 days and their account is under investigation which could lead to a permaban. They were told to dismantle the FC and everything.

I know Square doesn't like mods but they aren't gonna stop them. The only rules they have is don't install mods on your side and then post other players who had their appearances changed via the mods

There definitely needs to be an investigation, because that discord probably broke more than just copyright rules.

Isn't there a law against having billboards that cause people PTSD like this one?

This is really the only acceptable billboard that could come from FF14.
