Okaaaaaaaaay, one of the survey questions is: "In your opinion, what are 3 words that describe people who play EVE Online?"

Personally, I'm googling "online psychiatric diagnosis" and "psychiatric thesaurus" before I can answer that question.

Bearing in mind that you are in fact a person who plays Eve, are you sure you want to self-diagnose? :p

It's 19% into the survey. It was on the same page as the "What best describes your experience with the following features in EVE Online?"

Quote:

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fourth edition (DSM-IV-TR), defines ASPD (in Axis II Cluster B) as:[9]

A) There is a pervasive pattern of disregard for and violation of the rights of others occurring since age 15 years, as indicated by three or more of the following:

1.failure to conform to social norms with respect to lawful behaviors as indicated by repeatedly performing acts that are grounds for arrest;
2.deception, as indicated by repeatedly lying, use of aliases, or conning others for personal profit or pleasure;
3.impulsivity or failure to plan ahead;
4.irritability and aggressiveness, as indicated by repeated physical fights or assaults;
5.reckless disregard for safety of self or others;
6.consistent irresponsibility, as indicated by repeated failure to sustain consistent work behavior or honor financial obligations;
7.lack of remorse, as indicated by being indifferent to or rationalizing having hurt, mistreated, or stolen from another;


Yep, APD right down to the symptoms. Straight

Not me, as I'm not playing EvE for the antisocial aspects (and make it very clear that it's unhealthy to engage in them...and why). Bear

Goons have long needed a straightjacket and a rubber room. Afterall, we don't need a Heaven's Gate episode for EvE, ya know??? Lol

Then we do not meet the criteria for that diagnosis. As it states you have to have at least three to qualify, and at most looking at it from ouside, Goons could be guilty of #7. It could be argued that as a community one would not have much remorse/sympathy for those outside of it, so the case for #7 is non existant for those internal to our comunity, and moot for those outside it.

How long have you had these feelings of hatred for Goons?
