I agree. Its an upcoming change.

It doesnt mean however that I won't reconsider allowing NSFW content upon relocating sometime this year.
Please stay tuned for updates regarding my automated moderation tool. I know it sucks, it needs fixing

​RPers on bluesky, you're lovely bunch, thank you for the love you gave to the project. 💜

​I can't risk legal battles especially since this is my hobby project and it remains revenue-less. And I can't be arsed by the lawmakers creating laws for multibillion dollar companies that knock hobby projects like this off the market.

Especially if someone forgot to mark content NSFW and the entire ul'dah (including minors) saw their pecker. For reference, light handles it better because its built around consent based pairing unlike Glance that just takes from everybody.

Age gating is additional liability I am not willing to take on at the moment

Also ​Square Enix's recent wave of C&Ds and legal threats against plugins puts the whole project at risk of a shutdown.

Local (NC) PAVE Act enforces any website with nsfw content above 33.3% to enforce ID verification. Not only the document is vague asf. Its also a danger to user's privacy. It puts me in charge on monitoring the data that is on my servers acting in good faith. Whatever that is.

RPhub was meant to be a domain for every RPer. I switched on the policy this year not from my own conscience, but after considering RPhub's status I chose its survival.
​And there were a few threats:

I've been seeing posts popping up about RPhub's enforcement of SFW. I hope to clear things up with this post.

​First of all, as the creator, I have 0 problems with adult content, I'm a supporter of free expression among the adults.

I'm lurking on the tags for feedback. This is exactly what I need so don't be sorry. I'd be pissed too, because its nitpicky asf.

It's very strict. Buy I had to add it with how viral the plugin got, so I got less erp clutter to deal with alone later. I'm working on bringing it to FFXIV's policy level (16+). Bear with me 🥀

I'm liking every post

"i don't rp so making an rphub is useless to m--"
shhh.....
i want to see your ocs profile. we want to see your ocs profile.
make a profile so that we can see your little guy.

Oop 😭 did I hallucinate adding that?? I think I switched it at some point lol. Pop into our discord and I can fix it for you for now -- if you want!

You can if you have plugin, I'll add this eventually to the site!

That's fair, I could make it stand out more. Thanks for the feedback.

It's on the rphub.co/glance !
github.com/rphubco/glance

You can disable location in the plugin settings. It's used for syncing automatically people's profiles.

Thank you so much for sharing the plugin! 💜 I have quite a few console and no-crime friends myself, so including them was a top priority for me.

the coolest part of rphub and the Glance plugin is that it lets you set up a profile even if you're a console player.

i genuinely love that they've made sure to include console players on this.

So happy to hear it gave you a boost! He is a great character and the profile looks amazing, especially the gallery. (Making me want to go make a xaela of my own now..)
