Are you Draco the lawgiver by any chance? Removing SP, is way too harsh. Forum offenses must be dealt with a forum punishment, unless its an extreme case.

I mean my opinion is you should feel comfortable speaking on the forum. A business like manner might not be comfortable for some. I know most get at each others throat, it is gonna happen with all these opinions. Consider it a debate.

You know they do perm ban people and gag them.

When you get a perm ban, well that's it.

I still feel this thread a rant turned into a civil conversation under fear of lock.

Perhaps that's a family culture for some when expressing ideas.

My family are bitchy to each other very often but its just normal.

Don't yell at each other lol.

Its a game, we're not being paid.

Ages vary from say 10-50 idk.

With just those 2 things you already have a perfect setup for trolls ect.

sounds like OPer gots trolled an dont know how to handle the shrinking of his Epeen.



And if you thank thr trolling here is bad go check out the DCOU PS3 forum

It's kind of to cruel, plus I think GM Vegas and GM Hercules kind of enjoy some of our naughty postings. They get to giggle and sensor it or lock it.

They have a great since of humor, with a game like this and a pretty cool community you have to expect people to get out of hand.

Like a casual after party in Iceland when people have had to many booze.

Ya but they're not freakn' space robots.

CCP are advanced space robots with an understanding of the human factor and how dumb we get.

If these forums were uber strict everyone would be 100% cautious on what they say and everyone's post would be more like a business report then a hellstorm.

Hellstorm threads make it more interesting when people go on attack mode on a subject.

Gets the community more into it.

Or the drunk man/woman being punished would become more belligerent along with his/her big group of friends holding a bucket of water to short circuit the advanced CCP space bots.

Just sayn' lol.

If I got paid CCP style for this I would definitely make business reports.


The CCP Devs are also representing their company and need to do things the way they do.

They also don't expect us to always be in the guidelines, people will always cross the line whether they mean to or not.

Their current methods have worked for a long time. As an eve player I know the eve community has grown closer from the big allowance or flexibility to the rules the GM's and DEV's give us.

I liked it for its lameness lol.

Late I must sleep.

See ya'll in the morning

I've deleted some trolling posts from this thread. That feels so inceptiony to me.

Anyway, if you feel like a post violates the forum rules, please report it using the flag button on the top of every post. This will report the post to myself or one of the other forum moderators and we'll come investigate and, if deemed necessary, delete/edit the post and issue a warning/ban.

From moderating the EVE Forums for the past four months with some other Community bros, I've found the best way to keep the forums civil is to make sure posts are moderated swiftly, to issue warnings and bans when justified, and to generally be vigilant. Taking action against someone's game account is an option for extreme or gross repeated violations, particularly if someone is circumventing forum bans or the like. This is generally a last resort, however.

As for the amount of time it takes away from us, well... I'm not a programmer. Moderating the forums doesn't prevent me from fixing bugs or making changes, because unless they really need the game to say "Hello world", I don't think I could provide much help there.

well personally Id rather be in the house NOT on fire, but that may just be me.

And its a very logical way of solving problems, its opening your eyes to a worse world so the current one seems less bad therefore insta problem solved.

The opinoin of one can relate the other, therefore creating a world not so bad as was.

really people just need to use the locker room for what its there for.

This is exactly what i was talking about earlier everyone on eve and dust acts like this isn't a game but the most serious thing ever were not working on an atom bomb were working on a game that is maint to be enjoyed, experienced, and moved on from or continued to be played.

I hope you end up being banned mainly because this isnt feedback/ideas this is a complaint one mans complaint to change something he has no power over.

soon as they start IP banning or having harsh punishments the forums will die due to fear of retribution.
