Punkturis linked this on Twitter, incoming like spam in 5....


Personally I laughed, then I facepalmed, and yet I still think this should be the image when you have a bounty instead of [WANTED] in big red letters over your portrait.



Lol best idea, I'm not sure I can sneak it through though Lol

I don't see how setting bounties on people that you don't like is any different than wardeccing them personally.


And the forum alts (like me :D) never undock anyway so, whatever.

You guys should probably wait for the official Dev blog before panicking and jumping to conclusions. Reading the EVE news article, some things are very strangely written, other things are very off the mark and seem to have been taken completely out of context for what Soundwave will have explained.
The dev blog Is written, and is ready to be released very soon.


It's the nature of people to speculate on the info they have available. Since all they currently can rely on is hearsay, that is what they use to speculate and draw conclusions from. If you want to manage this behavior, you're going to have to come out with some concrete facts about the mechanic. Otherwise the article is still the only solid info available, so people will speculate based on it.


what do you think the dev blog will be about? Blink


Sex.


BINGO!



Now, everyone's thinking that she's using Bingo as a statement indicating correctness.

But no, that's the big Winter feature. WiS Bingo nights. You've heard that Eve has an older player base than most MMOs, this is CCP tapping into that.

Later we'll have EVE: cruise ship, with features like shuffleboard, lounge singers and so on.

Big smile I'll get my coat.

Woo! CSM XI!

OK I didn’t choose any of you basement dwelling trolls to raise, but I will try and help some of you use your limited thought process to maybe comprehend a simple concept. I will try and keep it as simple as possible.

To call someone a coward for alt posting has to be one of the most moronic and juvenile attempt at trolling there ever was or ever will be. My 17 year old son can do better. Hell my 8 year old daughter even.

The internet itself is a curtain we ALL hide behind to say or be who ever or what ever we want. We all hide behind this curtain so we are all cowards using your moronic logic.

Lets imagine for a moment I have a main pilot that has several million skill points. What if I wanted to use this pilot to infiltrate the Goofwaffle federation. If I came to these forums and posted how I really felt about the Goofwaffles do you think I would make it in? Instead I keep this pilot low key and move him in and up the ranks of some lower corps till I got my chance.

I wouldn’t want to have to train another pilot for months just so I could fly a decent pvp ship all because I shot my mouth off on these forums. So alt posting is not only about not having to answer for your comments, because in reality no one has to answer for what they post here. You could just create a new pilot but why waste your time and resources?

I would hope that many of you would be able to comprehend or grasp this simple concept yet because of the stance you have taken you are either going to be immature, or would feel the need to hang onto your internet bravado to admit you might or could be wrong.

As far as corporations go I would respect any corp. that had the honor and or dignity and self respect to request its members not post on these forums because its mostly filled with basement dwelling trolls and little good will come from it. When you post here you not only rep yourself but your corp. and not all corps want to be represented by a forum troll warrior.

I feel certain the basic logic will elude most of the forum trolls and you will resort to what you do best, so please do not let me keep you from it.

People post with alts for many reasons. Some corps have a code of conduct that restricts them from posting on the forums as they represent that corp.


Which ones?




IIrc Ev0ke used to have such a rule...



On a side note: does that mean that bounties will be untied from sec status?

Anyway - I'll just put a bounty on my own head an autopilot through new eden like a large collidable space piñata.

It will be glorious.

For a moment I thought he was asking Punkturis out on a date. That made me think...

For next fanfest there should be a competition of some sort where the reward is dinner with Punkturis. Nobody cares about dining with the CEO...

If your "main" is busy infiltrating a corp and wants to keep a low profile perhaps you should consider either not posting for awhile, or do what everyone else does and use an alt to infiltrate with.

Either that or resign yourself to the fact that NPC alt posters are considered nothing but trolls and summarily ignored by the majority of the EVE community... which makes posting on the forums rather pointless anyway.

Mains and Alts... you people are so judgmental!

A good MMO player treats each of his characters with equal respect and dignity. They're all mains in my eyes!

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

This is such a great feature, it makes me really excited to play EVE. A brilliant idea to let the players police the trashy people of EVE.

Can't wait to put fat bounties on the narrow minded derps who live on theses forums that do nothing but argue like a radio with everyone in every thread like Pipa Porto, Baltec1 and various goonswarm trash.

Don't worry...I won't be there. I am one of the poor EVE Gamers that can't afford the trip. My "creepy request" is purely for the benefit of others!

I'm kidding anyway...pretty sure even in Iceland there may be a law or two broken. Selling the employees off at company parties...hmmm...could be bad. Unless it's CCP Guard of course.

Perhaps you'd like to be a guinea pig for the rest of EVE. Please put a billion ISK bounty on yourself on Dec. 3rd. Then we'll see how big an issue it is.

not all of goonswarm of course. Just the derps like yourself who will respond aggressively after failing at reading comprehension and get overly excited about girls on the internet.
