thewy got something for something they did (the scam). That's not something for nothing.

Giving a guy isk and expecting double in return is getting something for nothing (in game and in real life, just ask any nigerian prince). Which is why it doesn't really happen. Someone who wants to give you money will just give it to you.


But that guy did sing a song and read some of those speeches, and got no ISK in return, not even 5 ISK, not even 1 ISK.

All I see is a greedy corporation promising their employee they will make lots of money if he works hard, then the corporation pulls out the rug and runs off with all the ISK and assets.

Gevlon Goblin tries to be the most hated player of Eve with his dumb blog and more dumb actions and graphs for about 2 years now, but Erotica1 beats that in 3(!) days!!! Amazing!

hmmm ok I have been "Associated" with the government my whole career.
I see this as having CCP come out Monday/Tuesday next week and saying we are going to ban Sokhar & Erotica 1 and take all assets off of them.
Of course that will be after Sokhar quits and after Erotica 1 quits and gets rid of all his assets.
Then they(CCP) will say rules wont change, but we will look at it on a case by case ticket.

Last time I checked with any normal person, using the victim being stupid as an excuse for abuse wasn't really kosher.

Then those "normal people" lied to you, as I've explained to you previously.. Despite your politically correct view, somethings a 'victim' is at least partially at fault for the things that happen to them.

No. A corporation you work for owes you a wage for doing that. If they don't you can sue them.

The game show about singing you knowingly went on never owes you a thing. You can try to sue them if you feel like wasting your own time and money.

So, if a gate camp scrams a player and the ransom is *ten* songs on TS, is that torture?

You misunderstand how the Bonus Room functions.

It is not ten songs.
It is an unending line of arbitrary demands, any of which if you refuse to perform or choose to leave the Bonus Room, Erotica1 wins.

This process is hastened by abusing the victim during it, and thereby made "amusing" to a group of players who get off on listening to the suffering of the victim trying to cope with what is being done to him.

There is no actual way to win, unless you are an associate of Erotica1 and are running through the Bonus Room for purposes of creating a theater so that he can maintain the false legitimacy that anyone can ever (legitimately) win the Bonus Room.

Its important that you understand the difference.


Having witnessed multiple Bonus Rooms, the structure of the Bonus Room is actually rather specific. It goes through specific stages that vary extremely little.

You also keep presupposing the agents are "abusing" the contestant, when the entirety of the Agents goals is to keep you motivated and having fun. That's why they're polite.

I'd imagine abuse would be easier if you actually did something mean.

“Die trying” is the proudest human thing.

Well no further use arguing, I suppose logic helps protect us from harm and helps to lead us to greener pastures.

Good luck in the future and try to fly safe.

It's not torture.

Have you read the post linked in my sig?

I would encourage you to do so.


Yes.

It's flawed.

Amnesty International's definition does not include "psychological pain" in their definition. Furthermore, even the best of analogies are fundamentally flawed, in that they're only ever provided as a means of mapping an existing complex situation onto a simpler situation, which means that they can't ever encapsulate the complexities of the original situation.

In essence, you found an incredibly tenuous link between what happened and a high shock-value word like "torture" and have been parroting your nonsense since making that amazing discovery.

If you want to argue that what happened pushes the boundaries of the sandbox in ways that detract from the game, then go for it; You'd likely have some ground to stand on. I'd even agree with you.

If you want to argue that this game would be improved by banning the people who'd go to that length, then go for it; There are rules that cover harassment, and it's less of a stretch to claim that that's what occurred. I'd even agree with you on this, in principle... though I have *MASSIVE* reservations on it, because of the number of unintended consequences it might have on the more "acceptable" forms of "consensual non-consent" that come up in this game.

However, claiming that an oversized-child having a freak out because someone outplayed him in that sandbox is somehow evidence of torture is beyond absurd.

It does not include the specific wording of "physical pain" either.

That is because it is already established and recognised in law that the term pain includes all forms of pain.

If it is necessary to define a specific form of pain, it is specifically worded as such. In other cases, the term covers all forms of pain.
