If it's against the ToS what are my chances to have it successfully petitioned ?


Religious is something that people can not understand what the end is of life and "or" are afraid for dying. . All fairytale nonsense is just fairytales so I don`t why you are upset by it.

This is just a matter of spam the only thing you can do is report him for spamming.

Ah. Now THAT behavior is anti-social. Probably not petitionable, but at least there you have a complaint I can agree with.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

You're playing an Amarr, and apparently religious referencces offend you?

I call troll.



They offend me too Kaarous. While I admit, a single Biblical reference seems trivial, if it was constantly being spammed in local at my hq, it would affect immersion. There's a guy who periodically anchors cans at dozens of gates in my region and each of them is named to read a different Biblical verse or a solicitation to his religious group. It annoys the hell out of me. When you see it once, its no big deal. But when on a 10 jump trip you are exposed to Christian proselytization at every. single. gate. it becomes a nuisance. I don't come here for that. I know the answer is to wardec the corp dropping the cans and destroy them, but should you really have to? Imo, it's a valid question. Where is the line drawn on religious propaganda in game?

Sure, you can label me as the ***** here, but that kind of attitude is hopefully not what you entertain for yourself in real life.


So, I guess you're one of those guys that feels like he has an obligation to side with either the PETA folks or Hunters ? Who needs to side with medical doctors specializing in orthopedics or with chiropractors..

... ...you feel you must either express disdain for people into astrology or embrace it?


NO... .not for me.. The Beauty of the world comes from differences between people... ... texture ... Certainly I don't enjoy violence...

... but tolerance does not mean accepting other's theories

.... and tolerance certainly doesn't mean that people shouldn't express extreme theories.

Tolerance means expecting people to believe in things you disdain , perhaps taking them on when they try to impose their viewpoint upon those that do not hold their viewpoint..

But.. a perfect image.. of FREEDOM not for some pathetic Lockean social justice reason but FREEDOM as seeing something good in the many colors of a prism even if they colors have no utility... a plethora of colors, some good some bad is better than only a limited selection of colors that 95% of people prefer.


My image of a woderful world would ab a Parade.. with a Transvestite in Drag, walking arm in arm with a Morman, a Pat Robertson, a Crunchy Granola Berkeley Lesbian, A woman in a Burka, a Green Beret in Combat Fatiques, Bill Clinton, Rush Limbaugh, Joe Montana, Madonna, Prince Harry., , the Paparazzi....

Diversity of STRONG and polarizing opinions makes us all richer.. middle of the road polite biting of your lip and thinking that there must be a "right answer" but that what is right must be moderate.. thats ... .
..thats sucking the vibrancy out of the wordl !


We need teapots big and small and water pipes for both bringing drinking water and for cultural celebration as the do in public cafes in the middle east and in dorm rooms in the US !


ALLL of that , belongs in EVE bios !

I've really enjoyed learning of different cultures from reading peoples bios


Pop culture remarks like "darkness, everybody, darkness" would have been lost to this 48 year old without fiinding a link on someones bio ... now. I am more prepared to break the ice with my 16 year old son and I CAN Rationalize how playing EVE helps bring my family together because of it !

I have added some extremely offensive (censored of course) material into my bio that you can be outraged at at your leisure.

Its offensive to everyone, due to its censored nature, so anyone that feels offended at trivial tat in inconsequential internet games can satisfy their need to be outraged at things they don't particularly like. On the internet.

It also includes instructions on how to avoid being outraged at offensive material that you may come across.

I hope that this will help you in your life, as i feel that the simple instruction contained in my extremely (but censored) bio, while specific to this particular situation, can easily be translated to a wide spectrum of occasions of offense, and allow any who follow it, to lead a trouble free pleasant experience throughout the rest of your life.

I hope this helps.
