For those who think the site is biased for lack of a particular perspective, why not offer to submit some content? Smile

It's pretty decent commentary. Though, I do think it's only a matter of time before you find the same propaganda here as you would anywhere else.

Who designed this site? It's absolutely unreadable. The font on the About section makes me want to sharpen a pencil and jam it in my eyes.

Maybe when you guys get a better design, people will actually visit the site more than once.

I'll have you know it took Vietnamese Children over 7 months to make the design for the site out of nylon scraps and tears. Do you hate Vietnamese children?

This is quite sexy. EVE finally gets a Reuters / BBC / Al Jazeera, instead of its Fox News monopoly.

Another good thing:

James 315 has another outlet for his long-winded posts, and we don't have to see them in GD anymore.

That alone is cause for celebration.

One could say that it was more like a CNN monopoly.

Especially the FilipinoCupid.com ad.



Most ad networks customize the ads for the person viewing the site. I wonder what that says about you?

Without taking even a minute to check the content, I would say you'll have a hard time convincing people that you're "fair and balanced" when your whole schtick revolves around appropriating the guise of the most divisive figure in EVE.

THAT SAID! I will give it a go, but the first time I see a Poetic Stanziel rant about Eve University, I'm out. P

We have an ongoing discussion internally about reporting NEWS, and writing cerebral or otherwise entertaining features. We have novelty, news, reviews, and as well as other things. A mindful avoidance of bias and propaganda is our goal.

Battle reports will be the most difficult things to tackle. In order to report on what happened, we really have to actively request first hand accounts of both sides. We have to figure out what each side is measuring as strategic goals and overall morale victories.

One side may be out for more kills, the other may be out for more isk destroyed. The majority of us come from a background where elite pvp metrics are irrelevant and the end goal is all that matters. It will be an interesting hurdle to tackle as far as perceived objectivity is concerned.

So, how long until EN24 is nothing but blog posts and trolls trolling trolls?
