There is a guild that has formed for the sole purpose of engaging in and encouraging ERP - also known as Erotic Role Play. While I have yet to actually meet any of these characters in-game, I have to admit that the idea of interacting with them unsettles me greatly. I don't know how they conduct themselves in character, and whether or not it violates any codes of conduct laid down by Blizzard for the game.
On one hand, if they are conducting their roleplaying in a manner that does not filter into the in-game world, thus keeping it clean and...well, Teen-rated, then I don't really wish to have a problem with the guild's existence. Obviously, if they are polluting the in-game channels with filth, I want to hunt them down and report them until they learn their lesson.
But even if they are "minding their own business," so to speak, I still can't say I'm very much comfortable with the thought of an entire guild devoted to that sort of roleplaying. It seems to me to be against what Blizzard is trying to create in their gameworld, and it's something that will probably always bother me, knowing that it exists.
So I ask of you, what is the opinion on these sorts of guilds in the World of Warcraft? And what can I, or should I, do about it?
