We're giving old Ripard a better send off than he ever gave the people he had a distaste for. That's for damned sure.

I liked his blog. Now I am a sad panda (tm).

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear.

Cool content there bro, I see you practise what you preach real purdy like.

May I see your Posting Permit?


Lolz. Triple U. Unfunny, uninspiring, and unreadable.

Please continue.

Profound insight!


Says the NPC corp alt...


Well, Ripard did say he was going to set aside most of his other alts to partake of the 10% of EVE he still enjoyed. Stirring **** on the forums sounds like a winner to me.

To be fair, that's still more engaging than 90% of the other online games by a fairly large margin.

Absolutely. It's all great fun, until it turns into a witch hunt.

I guess you just dont know funny like I do

As many as you can force into the small secure container at gunpoint!

Depends on how much you pay for them.

No seriously though, stop pretending the E1 incident was all Ripard's doing.

If you want to blame someone for it, blame E1 himself.

I think it's a little bit sad that this thread has devolved into a "screw you Ripard" fest.

For me I will miss having a place to go to read somebody else's opinions on Eve. Whether I agreed with them or not is almost irrelevant.

I don't think anybody can deny that R/J put out a lot of (blog) content and made a significant impact on the Eve landscape throughout his career, even if you disagreed with it. What he achieved was another piece of the finely woven tapestry of Eve.

At least he could write in coherent sentences. That put him a step above many people in this game.

I always think it lessens the richness of the community when someone stops contributing. Not that I blame him - far from it.



It is very sad. I also note that in the past 10 pages that we have witnessed about the same 10 people being asshats posting over and over how much they hated him.

I wonder if those 10 have any affiliation with the westboro baptist group?
They have the same level of hatefulness and intelligence.

I'm not pretending anything. Erotica 1 got himself banned.

Ripard, however, engaged in a completely unnecessary and purposeless witch hunt. Erotica had used quite enough rope to hang himself without Ripard going off and further embarrassing the other player, who ultimately admitted to not feeling all that victimized.

Even for you, that's out of line, Dinsdale.

Nah, he'll get what he wants in a page or two. He can't have the reason this thread was locked listed as 'By OP request.'

Good riddance. Less slander on the internet is a good thing.

A pity that blog didn't end before it began.

Okay, yes, that part I can agree with.

If it could have been handled with direct dialogue to GMs, that would have been preferable. I don't know if such a thing was attempted. I never did because I had no direct evidence, only information that other people had posted.
