That's why you go to "Account Managment" via XMB menu to activate your privacy settings. You can disable messeges that do not come from the friends list and also disable unwanted friend requests. Well, that is only useful for the PSN ID part. :)

Torture man... I'm really sorry for that guy.
Wow ... hope CCP bans this guy. Probably a douche IRL aswell...

People devote their time to this game, they want to enjoy their experience. Some people like to be the a**hole, but lying to gain leverage over someone's hard work is wrong; even in New Eden. Real friendships have formed and broke over this 'game'... so what kind of game does that make? Especially a game that kids can play, and people can spend their real money on.

I know people that hate you, Spero. And they've never actually dealt with you, or know what you do as Kain Spero the pirate of New Eden, and as the real life CPM.
If you do something for the community, and you state that you do, it is a reflection as CPM, not an in-game character.So you have to be careful how your present your actions.

It can not be emphasized enough that as a community we should be aware of the line between the game and real life and always respect that line when it comes to topics such as harassment and real-life threats.

I need to speak with you on dust with mic

It's none of my businesses here, but I believe the term is refereed to as "on comms"

this game has zero accountability , you say its fair to let us be robbed harrased & stolen from in game , without any sort of policing or insurance offered on hard work that a group putts in , and that its "all part of the fun" when 1 person defrauds the rest of said group . yet if we then where to offend someone in real life (exactly where you draw a line here is questionable) through a voiced threat , then we become the aggressor & the sneak thief/ troll becomes the victim ?
don't commit the crime if your not willing to do the time .

You keep shaggin your sheep

I would like to report CCP for real-life harrassment.

Do you shag sheep as well ?

Hello everyone,

For the last few weeks the community has been debating the topic of real life harassment, and its connection to the EVE Universe. The EVE Universe Community Team has been working on this issue for some time now, and has had extensive discussions about it with your elected representatives, the Council of Stellar Management.

EVE is a virtual world whose inhabitants have more freedom to play the villain and experiment with various backhanded tactics than in any other MMO. The freedom to scam and commit piracy, espionage, and extortion are all fundamental to the EVE Online experience, and CCP will never change that. However, it is important to remember that the EVE universe is a virtual world, and behavior of this nature should remain firmly within that virtual world.

While the content of online interactions between players cannot realistically be gated within our game worlds, CCP strongly disapproves of clear and extraordinary levels of real life harassment against our players in the outside world.

CCP, in collaboration with the CSM, have agreed and would like to state in the strongest possible terms and in accordance with our existing Terms of Service and End User License Agreement, that real life harassment is morally reprehensible, and verifiable examples of such behavior will be met with disciplinary action against game accounts in accordance with our Terms of Service.

Harassment poses a potential problem in any virtual world, and CCP has dealt with cases of this nature for more than a decade. We will continue to monitor and evaluate claims of harassment based on our policies and acceptable standards of behavior.

As always, CCP will not discuss specific cases of policy enforcement. However, if you have any questions regarding this statement, please feel free to pose them in this thread, and we will respond to the best of our ability.

Then you should starts a massive clean-up in Russian forum section, because levels of threatening and disrespectful behavior without real background are happening through months already, Russian part becomes "favellas", the ghetto which it wasn't and it shouldn't be. Now I realize that Russian Devs are aimed for EVE but gosh, make it possible to clean all those harassments that come from players that really do not know how to behave, they basically spook new players, when there is society, there is order and gaming society has an order so make sure it is on top of whole society and not on the prioritized once. Just do a brutal clean-up... because standards of behavior simply do not exist in minds of those players and I hate reporting, but even doing so the result is almost null and players that continue behaving cannot communicate and interact with those who doesn't know simple fact as ethics.

EDIT: You should find a way of tracking new accounts on PSN from players that were banned, sometimes banning is not enough and they come back to forums just to continue, yes we have those that have nothing to do but to create disorder on forum no matter how many times they were banned.
