Oh god, that's the worst reasoning lie ever.
Let's test with a site that is one of the first in a search for eve hacks: http://publicdemands.co.uk

See?


Thanks for pointing that out buddy I'll have it added forthwith.

:edit: The reason it's not is likely that most people know better than to try to link it. Something that doesn't appear to be the case with the site in question.

this is no promotion of EULA violating activities, right?

edit: maybe you should switch to white-listing instead? Roll



I was going to jump in and defend CCP since there are without doubt plenty of posts on K.com that encourage botting and Client modification. But after reading this thread and the above list in particular I'd say just uncensor them. Applying censorship selectively is worse than having none at all.

Also the video of sreegs snorting lines of some kind of cheese sauce is seriously wtf
I expect I'll spend more time browsing those forums if there's more gems like that.

That Kugu is still a banned word on the official forums, despite being the one of the biggest non-official forum site for eve online speaks volumes about how CCP runs as a company.




I wanted to reiterate what I said, in light of CCPs response.

The site in question is not a registered fansite. All registered and approved fansites can be found here.

Please note that the Assembly Hall is not a venue for threads to be spammed just to get attention and this one will be locked.
