I think so, people roleplaying as sociopaths. mmorpg not real life remember.

Also to the people who think they're sociopaths you're not, trust me.


Hate to break it to ya, but literally everyone is at least a little sociopathic to some degree.


People who think that wear to much black eye liner and watch to much twilight. You're not as "dark" as you think you are, trust me.

To op, best thing you can do is what I'm doing right now, remind the "sociopaths" that they're roleplaying in a computer game. This community is easy to trigger once you know how to see through their bs.

Actually, people who know that are scientists, and smarter than you and I combined. Roll

For the record, the players most aligned to real sociopathy are the ones that tend to try to play games like this as if they're single player games, on their own. So, you know... anti-social types that never mingle, never join a corp, etc etc.

I've also never worn make-up in my life. I did once experiment with nail polish when I was 8... it was pink though, not black.

Scientist huh? You mean psychiatrists and therapists.

Did I trigger you in revealing that you aren't really a sociopath? See op this is how you reck people in Eve online, watch closely.

I think that shiny head should do the trick. Nothing says 'sociopath' like the 'I just got out of jail' look.

Why do people do that? Do people have no lifes that they need to sit at a gate all day and kill people? What does that accomplish?


To pad their killboards and infrequently generate rage-induced forum posts like yours so they have something to read between kills.

The real fun comes from stamping on the dreams of those valiant newbros who have made it past the camps, and are mining in low-sec. Sadly, years of FW mean that the moment I see a venture on scan, I automatically check all the open plexes in system, and only when they turn up empty do I allow a wry smile to cross my lips, because it means someone is about to learn a valuable lesson.

There's also something oddly enjoyable about chipping away at a Procurer with 30 DPS and chatting about the experience in local, keeping them updated on my ammo count as we go.

Some are afk, some confess their mistake the moment you have them in your clutches, and some try to plead with you. Personally I always set their ransom above the value of their ship (it's no fun if they pay, I don't want them to get away), or demand they eject and fly home in their pod. It's all part of the illusion of EVE, many of the genuinely new players seem disappointed when you don't attempt to extort them in one way or another. They often ask the same questions you're asking and I often give the same response: "A killmail and a smile, what did you get out of this?"

Those with a bright future ahead of them will usually admit they learned something, some even come back and manage to avoid capture, which is great.

You say sociopath, I say teacher. Only in my school, caning is very much still allowed.

Nah, real sociopaths are the ones who come across as the nicest, most helpful people you will ever meet. You don't realize they are manipulating you until it's too late.

Being over the top, easy to spot isn't how anyone who is actually good at manipulation does it. The best never get public credit, because calling attention to the manipulation makes it that much less effective.

You're taking this way too seriously.

I can't have fun with this if you keep taking this so seriously.

Yea I thought this was obvious. People who say they're crazy or sociopaths aren't they just want attention. They're easy to trigger though which makes for some fun banter.
