Trolling, team-killing, theft etc. are par for the course. People are idiots, especially online. You can make fun of these idiots mercilessly. Troll them, ram their tanks, call in Bolas to kill their dropships, run them over with LAV's, stand in front of them when they're sniping, follow them around and step in front of their barrel and steal every kill they might get, the list goes on. All that is well and good in New Eden.
Make fun of people for their actions. Start making fun of people because of who they are and it's no longer funny. Muting them isn't enough, they are bad for the community as a whole. When you make fun of their actions you are insulting their toon, their corp whatever. What these guys were doing was a personal attack and is completely unacceptable.
Guess what happened because of them? A new player, who might have been a valuable asset to some corp, has left the game and these two asshats remain. They need to either shut up with that bullshit or find a new game because they have no place here. |

That's a damn shame. Had a new recruit ask me if I "was a *****" because my toon is a girl. Luckily he quit that same day and saved me having to boot him. |

Even though it may diminish squad cohesion I am a fairly decent logi that works well with my team. I refuse to talk when I solo (unless I absolutely have to), or even when I'm in a group with people (new corpmates included; yes, we've had plenty of corpmates try to harass me, and if they didn't stop fast they became ex-corpmates even faster) I don't know. Doesn't matter what game I'm playing either; there's always people who will try to demean me playing.
You ever end up in my squad fire up the mic, good communication wins matches. At the moment only one of our members is a woman and no one has a problem with her without having a problem with all of us. Same as any other member of the corp. Rampant teabagging and trashtalking aside we TEA BAGGERS got no time for any of this prejudiced bullshit that some people think is funny. I get real fired up over all this kind of stuff but I'm just so goddamn sick of it. |

does it really matter? trolling is trolling is trolling
No, it doesn't/shouldn't matter to the people on the receiving end, the people dishing it out are the problem. And don't try to dismiss the issue as simple "trolling", this is misogyny plain and simple. Tolerating and defending those pricks only encourages them. Edit: If this thread bothers you, then why don't you just "mute" it by ignoring it? it doesn't "bother me" it just seems weird to me that if i got the same treatment and posted it on here people would call me a wus and tell me to HTFU and NOONE would be on my side but because she is a female she deserves to be treated differently it has come to a day where if you troll a woman on the internet people want you perma banned and i completely disagree were the men right to comment on women of whatever? no i am not a sexist and fully believe in womens rights however i believe in EQUAL rights and they should not get a softer suger coated version of the internet
The amount of stupid in your posts hurts me. I mean it actually hurts when I read it. I had to go get some asprin because you're just so goddamn stupid it's amazing you didn't get lost on the way out the womb.
I'm probably going to get in trouble for that but you really need to know. Free advice: I would never, ever say those words you posted to a person in real life unless you are a long, long way from striking distance and they can't get a good look at your face. It's going to end badly for you otherwise. And if the other people agree with you then they are going to cause you nothing but trouble down the road.
