No. We don't have to be treated like little kids.
So they're perfectly willing to ignore all the sexual innuendo (and sometimes, blatant sexual talk) that goes on amongst NPCs, provide an emote system which can be manipulated to do some hilariously obscene things (see a screenshot posted previously in this thread as an example), and generally imply through the story that they're not afraid to shy away from mature themes...
But letting players lay down wherever they want is far too risque.
Yeah, I'm calling bullshit on that. The introduction or not of /doze will have zero bearing on ERP, I can guarantee that. Would we probably get funny-sexy screenshots with folk using the /doze? Likely, but we already get that with all the other emotes in the game. Hell, one of my FC members spends an inordinate amount of time doing the female miqo'te /stretch so she can bury her face in other characters' boobs. This one single emote warrants no more control than any other emote in the game.
