There are people within our community, who seem to get a kick out of being vile trolls. The scream and complain on the forums poisoning our community, making it appear hostile when really we are a mostly intelligent and considerate group.
When these people, whom make vile, non-constructive thread post, please don't comment in their threads. You're just feeding them. It's like giving a crackhead money. The crackhead now knows you are an easy mark and will keep hounding you, and whatever money you do give them will never satisfy their addiction. They don't use the money for food. They use it for crack.
So when you post on the trolls thread, you're not being helpful and communicating with the community; you're feeding the trolls. As a result, they will be energized and continue to spew their hate to an even greater degree on these forums, creating new threads, pushing important, constructive threads off the first page and into obscurity.
This is a good example
If you feel like a troll thread is raising a legitimate concern, you would do better creating your own thread or finding one of the MANY far less trollish ones that speak on the same or similar topics like this one. |

Also, get some ISDs involved and actually moderate this forum. I'm so sick of having to sift through dribble to find something worth reading But please don't over moderate it! I see so many posts getting moved to other forum sections that don't belong there. They move so many good DISCUSSIONS to the feedback section when they don't BELONG there! Pisses me off. |

I'm tempted to make a thread listing all the forum trolls, maybe with links to them trolling.
Cosgar is one of them. Kitten Empress whatever. |

Don't feed the troll Soxfour |

You're right, they crave attention. I was just hoping it would get people to stop responding to them like I'm about to do

Do you read your own posts? You rarely if ever post anything constructive, and when you do, it's often ironic or satirical. Or maybe I'm mistaking Cosgars alt for Cosgar? If so I apologize |

Things I would like to see changed: 1. Execution 2. No EVE alliance = No orbital! 3. Friendly FIre in FW
Why I like the Concept of PC: This is a combination of points 1, 2, and 3 in my likes. These battles actually matter and the stakes are much higher than throwing away a bunch of ISK to pad personal stats. Tactics and strategy (which have been missing from Dust as of late) come into account because you can't just blob up and zerg everything and clones are finite.
What ruins PC: Having the warbarge in PC is literally a spit in the face to everyone that bought UVTs and took the time to form an EVE alliance, plain and simple. Get rid of the warbarge and you'll see more Dust corps interacting with EVE players. If anyone complains, tell them "Welcome to New Eden." Besides, I've seen several good corps put in work without even needing an orbital. Having access should be a privilege for those with an alliance, not a right to all.
Also, in any battle that affects EVE influence, I would motion for FF to be turned on at all times. This is the kind of importance these battles need, along with higher rewards for those higher stakes. If you make this change, you'll see a lot of more tactically oriented corps rise in the ranks and not just pub stompers blobbing everything in Caldari Logi suits, Thukker Grenades and TAC ARs. (Yes people still run around with TAC ARs)
Edit: Defenders and Attackers in PC need to feel like defenders and attackers. Skirmish 1.0 would really help with this. Neutral territory could work as well if there were an implemented system where two sides engage on unclaimed territory.
This is a really good post and makes me think maybe Cosgar's Alt isn't you... Or you let your frustration get the better of you to often, which causes you to transform into a troll, like a weretroll |
