EVE General Discussion

Why should I stop my son from getting on the internet, when he did nothing wrong? I mean, I am getting two sides here... one side says let him get hit with the reality that is EVE and learn from it. The other is saying lock him away in a closet. Vekk, things are not that simple.

I assume you are posting from a computer he will not have access to (and switched emails with, etc.)?

Otherwise...yeah...

Doing this all in the first place seems to be overreacting, like I said, but I am trying to help.

Also, good chance he can see these posts if he wants to.

I said you remind me of begging people... and Yes you are begging for somthing. You are begging for sympathy due to your "dificult and special" situation. Thruth is you have the same rights as the rest of us. No more no less!

If you wanted to get out of this mess you'd do it based on the numerous good suggestions on how to achieve this.

So only one conclusion left:

Troll!

I have followed many of the suggestions posted to me.
If you actually read, you would know this. I am not using my child as leverage, I am not begging for sympathy. That was not my intent. My intent was to get perspective from people as to ways I could handle the situation. Many of which I implemented.

Sorry you're having issues with some jerk.

How is this guy hunting you down in two other games? Similar character names? Use non-related names.

Autism, I've read about it on several occasions. I still can't tell you what it is exactly so I can't advise you here other than to say that if your son has problems coping with such environments then he should not be exposed to such environments. If hes capable of getting around whatever it is you do to keep him off Eve, then perhaps use some hardware incapable of running Eve. If he can hack a P3 to run Eve I'd really like to get to know him. ;)

There is only so much CCP can or is willing to do. They are a corporation. As such they really couldn't give a rat's arse, IMO. All they really have to do is go through whatever motions required by law or associations they belong to in order to publish their game. It doesn't mean they actually have to do anything substantial.

Your best bet is to lay low. Goading this guy, as suggested in a reply on page one is not the way to go here. Obviously, the guy has issues dealing with things in a game. How do you think he's going to react to anything else you do in a confrontation? You need to break his ability to identify you. Unless he has access to your personal information then that should easily be accomplished by using different character names and most definitely unrelated character names between games.

Good luck.

If the harassment is continuing through other media than just EVE Online, then it is possible you could file charges against the harasser in your jurisdiction. How successful you'd be would depend largely on the laws of your area. It might be something to consult a lawyer about. Also you can file a complaint against the individual asking his ISP to shut him off for harassment.

I now know why people keep pulling the same tired scams in local day in, day out.

Apparently this game is chock full of people who will believe anything if it is repeated often enough.

Put yourself in his supposed situation, take a couple of seconds to apply common sense and figure out how to deal with it, and then ask yourself why you believe his story again.

Then look over a few of the threads from people that are pissed off because CCP won't permanently delete their accounts, credit card information, etc. and have raised all kinds of hell about it.

Makes a lot more sense now, doesn't it...

You don't take those people seriously, do you?
These are the Eve Forums, they're more crowded with scum and villainy than the Mos Eisley Spaceport.

Just put the little kid on your ignore lists and keep checking in with your boy from time to time, to see if the pathetic little dim one tries to circumvent your measures in some way.

I don't see how the butt-hurt kid could really "hunt you/your boy down", without wasting valuable resources on it. And considering how childish that person is acting, his attention span won't be the longest one anyways, and he will eventually lose interest in you.

NO RL threats at all. Only ones for EVEonline. I dont have anything against him playing the game either. One apology and he wont be ganked or wardecced or any other means of Piracy within New Eden, i personally hold no grudge against the man IRL


and again I only play EVEOnline and runescape and i only play runescape cause i'm a player mod, I persoanlly have been blocked from you for over a year..... You have heard nothing from me

"Am I overreacting a bit?... probably. It is seriously creepy when someone is willing to jump from game to game to "hunt you down" and your son reads a threatening email about someone wanting to kill you. " and read the mail, shalo said that he will kill you ingame,. he specifically mentioned not corp jumping. THerefor no threats have been taken into IRL. its all Ingame, all stopped for an apology.. the fact your son seenit is your own problem, not CCPs not mine. im sorry your case is ****. esspecially since Zanziba'ar is the only character on this account therefor proving my point that they are two others and so you should have blocked them
