I'm autistic and I'm part of an autistic group of gamers within VRChat. For the longest time I've always felt nervous and uneasy when in public worlds because of the policies that are so against mods, I risk getting banned for having help. I use a mod that limits the voice range of people around me (Voice Falloff Override) because too much noise around me overloads my senses and I can't play.
I have friends who use avatar hiders, limiters and anti-crashers to protect ourselves - but now we won't be able to do that anymore. Public worlds can be super fun, hell that's where I met my friends, but I don't want to go in public worlds because of the chaos having no mods will cause.
My friends don't feel like going into public lobbies either because of this change. We risk getting punished for simply protecting our selves. This game helped us develop critical communication skills, and now you've successfully done the opposite. We don't feel safe going into public lobbies at all, not because of users being mean, but because the very thing that protected us from mean people is going to be taken away by VRChat. We don't want to communicate with others outside our group after this change, we don't feel safe at all. This is a social VR game, and you people have made it into an anti-social game.
Get your policies in check, remove or revamp your anti-cheat or simply improve your game to an acceptable standard, you guys obviously have the money flow thanks to VRC+ to come up with something better. It's an absolute fool's move to completely abolish mods. Mods are what creates community and longevity. Do better VRChat. This is embarrassing
