Remove Elins from the game.
The reasons are obvious. Please remove them they are a disgrace to the lore, the reputation, and the TERA community. If you like Elins you need to seek help.

EDIT: I have had a change of heart. While I do not believe Elin should outright be removed from the game, I do believe the developers should increase the censorship for the race. Elin are being advertised as the "centerfold" of the marketing for the game. This claim is evidenced by the outfits for purchase in the game, the mannerisms of the race, and the sexualization of the race on advertisements for the game (and in-game). These reasons have brought in many undiserable people to the community. Something that may (and already has) affected the game negatively in reviews/press.

Well the Popori are technically the male equivalent.

We have tons of Elin defenders on here. Even some that want to remove their censorship so they can see "panty shots" it's really sick.

Yup. That is one of the reasons I quit playing this game. The other being the literal gambling cash shop items that may or may not give you an item you actually want.

Since i don't feel like going over why you should not call people sickos just for playing as elins im just going to say that,Personally i feel most people play elins because they either find them cute or interesting in design and little play them for actual pedophilc reasons. though it likely is very uncomfortable to play as an elin because of a few issues with the clothing choice.

Don't beat around the bush man, they play them for pedophilic reasons.

EDIT: Not everyone does, but a lot of people do. Especially the ones that make them wear schoolgirl outfits, ect.

Hahaha, Elins... Date way back to the beginning of Tera....

Wait... Remove them?

Well... If you did that, Tera would be completely dead, and shut down. We wouldn't want that, now would we?

no... you see the issue is that those that raise concerns in the first place are the ones that need to seek help.....

If you feel threatened by Elins then there is soething wrong with you...........................

I'm the one with the issue? That is a cute defensive argument. The reason I bring it up is because I like TERA I just hate the stigma assotiated with it from the internet. You can go on believeing that I am the issue, but you are not going to convince anybody hiding behind your 4 foot tall child race that wears school girl outfits. Games can have much more class than that. This game panders to the wrong audience and the suits running it from Japan know exactly what they are doing, however, they do not care because it is about the money. Open your eyes.

You're insane. People who takes games too seriously like Grand Theft Auto (GTA), and goto jail, and are all over the news for it, are what's wrong with gaming.

We're talking about Asian Culture here, they''re far different from western culture, as many of their games/styles are. Hell, they actually have Panty Vending machines in Japan, and they don't consider it wrong by any means.

So why is an Elin, something that is highly acceptable in Asian Cultures, so wrong here? They even went so far as to Censor Elins in the Western version of Tera, which then a few weeks later, someone had made a mod, to uncensor them.

If Elin is a race that bothers people, that's on them. Let people enjoy the games they want to, in the ways they want to.

I for on Love Elin, and watch tons of Anime (some more mature than others), and I see nothing wrong with Elin's.

I've even purchases a recent game that came out yesterday, Xenoblade 2 (for the switch), and they have a Nekomata, who looks like a child that joins you. Are you telling me the entire playerbase who bought this game is wrong? That they're all sick, and messed up in the head?

No, it's because a playerbase who loves fantasy exists. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Elins, are thousands of years old, and the description of a Pedophile, is somseon who is aiming for someone else, who is illegally of age, which Elins are not. Thus making your entire statement incorrect.

I've actually dated someone who was small, and petite, and is the same age as me (30), does that mean I'm a pedophile as well? In my eyes, no.

People like what they like, and you're just discriminating against people, because of what you believe to be right in your eyes.

Sometimes, people just need to stay off the internet, and or, not voice their concerns, because it's absolute bullsh_t.

Though i still disagree that people play them for pedophilic reasons i can agree that you have no real problem and its understandable that you would find elins questionable.
however saying people that play elins need help as if they are just something wrong just for playing that race makes you just seem ignorant and biased to everyone who sees them as something other than that.

Since you are insulting people you are getting some backlash, you should try considering the non-pedophile elin players as well even if there really are less of them
(Which i think there aren't)

1.You're insane. People who takes games too seriously like Grand Theft Auto (GTA), and goto jail, and are all over the news for it, are what's wrong with gaming.

10.Sometimes, people just need to stay off the internet, and or, not voice their concerns, because it's absolute bullsh_t.

1.Pretty much true Except the part about being insane

2.This is pretty much true but sadly i have to admit according sources they do have slight problems with child pornography not sure how bad but from context it sounds like a serious problem.

3.Kinda strange japan did not want to censor theirs but i can't say it can actually contribute to child pornography

4.true but the problem is some people want to play as a ninja but elin gets in the way of that,personally i think the popori should also be able to be ninjas anyway.

5.Im sure many love their anime aspects which the loli thing just adds to really.

6.Don't know much about the game but im pretty sure alot of steam users have played it as their first dating sim.

7.they care about how they look not the lore so that statement is invalid here though them looking more like a girl from anime compared to the other races seems to be a better arguement.
and from what i understand there are people in the world called 2d lovers who like anime girls more than they like actual girls.

8.This is invalid as well because by the standards of weebaloo that would just be a midget and elins don't look like midgets.(I believe this opinion came from danimyo)

9.I agree with this

10.Opinions where insults are included are always taken with a pinch of salt and are taken as valid for being biased.
