Much worse (BPD is treatable, APD is not [lack of a conscience precludes an ability to be reformed])....
…but APD does not include the lack of self-image and tendency towards confusion between what is real and what isn't that plagues so many people and makes them think that legitimate gameplay somehow makes a person mean for real, nor the chronic self-victimisation that makes them think that others are out to harm them at every turn.

So BPD is probably a more accurate description than APD, especially since any notion that the characteristics of APD exists is itself best described as a symptom of BPD.

Sorry, I don't understand. Could you explain why it is unhealthy for someone to engage in the antisocial aspects of the game?

Hell, what are these supposedly antisocial aspects of the game to begin with?

Well I understand the antisocial aspects she is talking about but I don't know why they are unhealthy. They are one of the reasons I enjoy the game.

I don't mean to go on about it, it just bothers me that she would say that as I feel antisocial interactions generate content and improve the quality of the game for us all. If some people can't handle it and want to quit, well the game isn't right for them, but overall, I feel antisocial personalities have a very positive influence on the game as a whole. I just don't understand why it could be considered unhealthy to have a unique playstyle and give something back to the game you love.

I put
offensive
unfriendly
elitist

meticulous, anal, and OCD also come to mind. Really nothing good to say about the EVE player base.

Okaaaaaaaaay, one of the survey questions is: "In your opinion, what are 3 words that describe people who play EVE Online?"

Personally, I'm googling "online psychiatric diagnosis" and "psychiatric thesaurus" before I can answer that question.


What survey?

Google only shows me EVE's survey scanners. Straight

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.
