Actually yeah. you hit the nail on the head. I wanted to to be sexy. The plan was that she should be appealing, but somethings not right. With the costume slots I have, Ill slowly have her rotting, until she opens her eyes leaves that corpse and then take a new slowly rotting corpse. Endless body and costume designs forever!

I had a similar problem with my Necro mastermind, "Grave Redeemer". People thought it was a 'flasher' costume, when it really wasn't. It's a zombie-like man in a dark trenchcoat with a hat. He sports mystical tattoos as well.
His storyline is that he's not undead, and that's sort of the problem. He wants to be dead, but can not die. In his pursuit of eternal life he ruined many lives and turned many good men to evil as they attempted to get revenge upon him. Now, in an attempt to atone, he summons the spirits of those men to give them a chance to do good and atone for their evils and at the same time atone for his.
...so yeah. He's not going to show you his weenis.

Defiant @Grouchybeast
Death is part of my attack chain.
I absolutely love that costume and the idea for the rotting stages.
Don't let whiners bring you down.

Eden top and Bikini 3 eh? I see the issue. That person had installed a patch that recolors those parts. They are at fault for modifying their client and being offended by what they chose to see.
It's not how many times you get knocked down that count. It's how many times you get up.

Thanks. Her next form is actually her old body in the isles. A tall Black Hatian woman with a flare for wild colored threads. The next in Paragon is the corpse of a newly dead super heroine. Gonna use some of the blast pieces for her cape and costume to simulate battle.|

Right now she is normal...or sort of, but her leg falls partly off and her arm rots in slot 2. The Halloween slot is the original Collette Moreau who was a student of Boccor. Her very last costume is going to be fully covered chitten with a human head, as a way of keeping her body from decaying further.
I play it like she can revert to previous skins but the cost is channeling her necromancy to be more passible as a human, regenerating her flesh, however in battle she can't do that as well so she begins to rot more.
Even use the rapid boil emote change to simulate oooooooze.

I did not know that. That is excellent to know actually. If I knew their were patches to make my costume not as passible I would have rethought. But the ERP boys and girls get pretty grossed out when they ask for a kiss and a centipede crawls out of her mouth. |

That by it's self deserves and emote. Im going to use the flies emote on her most rotted stage actually.
People sometimes just need to complain about something. Very cool look. Ignore them. Not worth the worry or time. As has been said before, Devs gave the costume pieces, so presumably they knew what they were doing. Done and done. Continue creeping people out.

I know that ERP means Enterprise Resource Planning, but I thought that Strategic Business Unit was SBU, not SUB. Perhaps the player who made the comment was frustrated by a bit of dyslexia and they took their anger out on you?|

Or, alternate hypothesis, they were into corporate consultancy and everyone knows those people are only nice to the CEOs that sign their paycheck.
In either case, as everyone else has already noted, you are totally fine using the tools the Devs made available as long as there is no IP infringement. Too bad that player upset you, though. Consultants yeesh.
I think you only way you could get in trouble for having an inappropriate costume (copyright violations nonwithstanding) would be if you use costume parts to create an effect that was unintended by the developers. The only example of this that I can think of was back when certain fleshtones could also be used as costume colors and some players made characters that appeared nude (they have since limited the colors available for costumes to prevent this).
Although your character pictured here is wearing a very skimpy costume, it's because you choose costume parts that were plainly designed to be very skimpy. Heck, you've even added some skulls to cover up a bit more. So no foul there.
I'd also like to point out that while many skimpy costumes seen in game are kind of blatant and unimaginative, yours is actually pretty cool. I approve.
This thread just reminded me, or the costume in question did, that I recently picked up 'Heavy Metal' and its squeal at wally world for $10 a few weeks ago and should get to watching it. I have seen pieces here and there over the years but never the whole thing.

This reminds me of the time I was working for a renaissance faire and we got a complaint from some parkgoers about the "nekked wimmen" at our event. The "nudists" turned out to be mannikin parts that one of our (fully clothed) employees was painting flesh-colored. They weren't complete mannikins, just legs, torsos, etc.
Apparently these lonely fishermen didn't care that the mannikins had no HANDS or HEADS, but being nekked was just TOO MUCH !

In fact, it's players like that, that make me want to make some, wearing almost nothing, character, just because they're being dumb :/
