I find quite disturbing that the one who is (in the end) looking for some female Seeker only did answer after 3 days and 32 messages.
During all that time, people were thinking about eRP but that's not the problem. Problem is people could (and probably did) contact some others without knowing what will really happen to them. I believe that being humiliated, sold, treated as a slave, even only in RP, can be quite disturbing if you don't know in what situation you're going to be engaged and think, instead, that it will be eRP.
It's always important to keep in mind that there are people behind the character and you have to be perfectly clear OOC for those kind of things before ending to restrain another player freedom to say yes or no to a situation. With so few informations at the begining (with or without conclusion about eRP) you can end to restrain someone else freedom, disturb him or completly break their character.
This is why I will always be against some rape in RP. For the simple reason that not respecting the freedom of the other player to say yes or no to some RP is completly disrespectful and problematic for me (of course, it isn't if the player agreed OOC).
I have no problem with the fact that some character want to do something bad to another IC. I have if the informations are not crystal clear and if, in the end, someone get in a situation he wouldn't like to be. So, if you really want to do something hurtful to another one IC (even if it's only RP), don't forget to be crystal clear in your intentions and don't wait 3 days, 33 messages and a lot of misunderstanding to finally talk.
PS : I completly agree with Kismet, the reason why people misunderstood is not because they are idiots, it's because of the one that made the topic who confused everybody in the first place.
