Default All the weird naked dancing people in Guild Wars.

Is there anyway that I can put some cloths on all the naked dancing people? For what ever reason, people just decide to take off there cloths & start dancing around. Its pretty embarrassing when my wife comes in while two naked people are "dancing" and says "Hey why are those people having sex in your game"?

It would be great if there was some "Modesty switch" so I could keep the cloths on all the weird naked dancing people. Or maybe the Modesty Guards could come buy and toss them in prison for "Indecent Exposure".

What can I do with all the weird naked dancing people in Guild Wars?

Thanks!

Tell your wife you're not responsible for the actions of others? :P

Well, since you can't actually get naked in this game (in fact you can't even get as close to naked as you can legally get on public beaches in that bastion of Puritanism, America), it'd be pretty hard to toss them in prison for it. This game doesn't go beyond PG-13...

Try jumping up and down. It usually... attracts attention.

Make a Warrior build, unequip all his Armor and make him dance for your wife. Problem solved.

Yes, I'm in a similar boat with my wife, so I hear your pain. ^_^ All the characters I saw wore underwear, even after removing all armor as stuff. Now, that's about as much as the average bikini/swimsuit, so there shouldn't be too much trouble there... as for the dancing and the ... ahem, "dancing", there's not a whole lot that can be done about that except being out of the city when that's going on.

I realise that's not much help, but it's the best I can offer. ;_;

Default dancing?

when your wife asks you why they are naked and dancing.. well ... you could always dance naked for your wife. that would definitely draw her attention from the computer.

I really hate sneaking around the game trying to avoid all the almost naked dancers and crazy underwear streakers. I would really love to be able to play this game without raised eyebrows from my wife and ???People In Underwear??? questions from my son.

I was hoping for a ???Put some cloths on button??? or even a ???Keep your pants on District??? would be fine. (help me please!)

In real life, you can say loudly ???Hey, buddy, put some clothes on!??? ??? and the people will show some reaction and realize what they are doing. In this game, there is no consequence to just running around in your underware ???

You can say, ???Hey its just a game??????. But, at some point, the graphics are so impressive, that situations can be shown that a Wife or a Parent would question is appropriate to view. As these games get better and more realistic, there need to be ways to either enforce standard social decency norms or create a filter if people are going too far.

If you say ???its now worse than PG-13??? ??? well that???s fine if you have a fast forward button, but it???s a bit tricky when your just standing there and you have all these crazy almost nude girls streaking by or dancing with a guy in his underwear.

Everyone has a threshold of what is ???decent???. All I am saying is some of the players of the game are creating situations not appropriate. When a ???passer by??? (my wife and my kids) says ???Are those guys having sex????!!?!? Something tells me its too far (This has happened to me).

So, what can I do about all the crazy (Almost) nude people running around that look like they are (Almost) having sex?

There is nothing you can do to force them to put on clothes, you can either:

#1 . Ask them to put clothes on (...even though they wont listen anyway)
#2. Leave the district
#3. Leave the city
#4. Shut down the game
#5. Tell your wife like nash said, your not responsible for other people dancing naked acting strangely in an online game where you have no control of their actions


Sorry

Well I totally second this as I am in the same boat. You should start a support group for Husbands with Jealous wives, or a Guild even [HwJW].
Anyhow, its no different than a gore option for them to turn on or off, I would like to turn dancing off completely as even fully clothed, some of the female dancers would warrant a wicked stare from my wife (Ele anyone).
Anyhow, I hope this thread gets some notice, I am sure we are not the only guys in this situation, though others may not want to admit it.
Thanks for bringing up the topic I have been ashamed to post my self.

So far as I know, there is nothing I know of that can (easily) solve the problem, short of not playing. Except maybe, Not playing when your wife and/or kids are likely to be around to look over your shoulder. Of course, this makes it seem like you're sneaking around, and it's just a flipping game, so I doubt that's much of a solution, either.

Write a letter to the powers that be. The worst that can happen is they totally ignore you.

If it helps, I do sympathise.

My wife gave me nasty looks at first also. But she just did the first time. The sad thing was that my son found out about it before I did.

He is 7.

The reason she let the undies go was to tell me that the girls look more suggestive with their cloths on than off.

I'm right there with you. I don't want to look at that stuff either. Questions or no questions from my husband or any other people who might pass by my computer screen as I'm playing. And just because I have no control over other people's actions, doesn't mean I have to be subjected to them. I am a firm believer of GI-GO (garbage in - garbage out), so many people have been watching, listening to, reading, etc., garbage for so long they think it tastes good. And can't understand why you wouldn't want it.

I whole heartedly support you here. I just moved away from these types of things when in town, however, I'd rather there be no way people can remove their clothes. The problem is....there is no law against stupidity and as humans we usually gravitate to it regularly.
