All the good stuff in life. Problem is, I am putting the clamps on. I will not tolerate smut. I will tolerate eroticism if done creatively, without base description and if it adds value to the game and story.
Implications of sex will remain implications, a couple of quips here and there about prowess or maybe an act is fine if done so elusively and without the intent of simply screaming that you performed X act on someone. We will adhere to the rating or I simply will not be amused should we get in the shit with PB support.
I am fine with characters flirting and even having completely meaningless trysts. Fine, your character is a slut and what not, don't much care. That's youre prerogative. But when it becomes an overriding motive, or the dominant trait of the character, we have an issue. I suggest that everyone reflect upon their character and their motivation and consider why they are playing THIS game. If you need to cyber or be crude, there are plenty of sites for that. But not here.
I HAVE made poor decisions myself and pushed the line a little too far. I did not do it to simply get a cheap thrill but rather to see just how well I could write in an act that we cannot elaborate upon. I WILL be editing that content.
I invite people to interact with other characters on all levels but seriously, if we can't keep it to the same standard we expect of all players, then it's simply got to go. We are not a game based on people shagging rather than questing.
If you would likie a benchmark for what I am comfortable with, read this thread:

It is a great read, is well written, implies sex WITH some form of compulsion why it went that way and better yet, it doesn't state what happened. It's erotic, it's compelling and better yet, it leaves off at the most tasteful time.
If you want to push it further than that - simply dont. I will delete content.
