EVE General Discussion

The link does contain foul language and there are 2 disclaimers you have to pass if you wish to view them.

You mean like they censored your corp name?

haha no, but good one.



We aren't children ... now that is another point. This game is apparently aimed at children?? Hence the policy.

To the pure, all things are pure.

Honi soit qui mal y pense, baby.

you mean smoking cigars and using foul language makes you "not children"?

yes, it's correct... for children

PEGI 12

(Please don't start the fallacious argument that a rating doesn't imply target audience.)

CCP needs to either introduce some sort of filter and get serious or change the rating of the game. IMO.

Online interactions are not rated.

+1 Cheese, I don't care to see obscenities or foul ideas while playing Eve. A better filter would clean things up considerably.

On the other hand though Eve players are pretty creative and I have seen some very perverse names that would not trip a filter.

I wonder if it would be possible to change the name of players as it appears to you. So I could change your name to "che'Monkay" and on my screen that's what would show up, but if I link your name to others then "cheese monkey" shows up. And to anyone who hadn't made a personal note about your name the default of "cheese monkey" would appear. Then people could customize the game to their own standards.

I realize there's a ton of people that you only see once in a blue moon, and this sort of thing would be counter productive that way. But when combined with a good filter it would clean up the atmosphere considerably.

With the added functionality of being able to write notes about people right in their name. For instance you could become "che'Monkey HD" to represent being a hot dropper or "che'Monkey OB" if you buy ore. I would love to have this kind of functionality in naming people, places, and things.

*As a side note, I don't care for "cheese monkey" as a name. I don't like monkeys and when used out of context "cheese" goes all over the place image wise.

CCP don't set the age rating of the game, that's done by an independent administrator under the Pan European Game Information (PEGI) content rating system, the independent administrator is the Nederlands Instituut voor de Classificatie van Audiovisuele Media (Netherlands Institute for the Classification of Audiovisual Media).

For reference PEGI has 5 ratings, none of which relate to the online content of a game.

• 7: Suitable for ages 7 and older. May contain mild, cartoon violence, sports, or elements that can be frightening to younger children.
• 12: Suitable for ages 12 and older. May contain violence in a fantasy setting, coarse language, mild sexual references or innuendo, or gambling.
• 16: Suitable for ages 16 and older. May contain explicit violence, strong language, sexual references or content, gambling, or drug use (encouragement).
[*] 18: Suitable for ages 18 and older. May contain graphic violence, including "violence towards defenseless people" and "multiple, motiveless killing", strong language, strong sexual content, gambling, drug use (glamorisation), or discrimination.
