Bullshit.

I once had someone completely flip his lid at me in local, after I bumped him once.

Do I need to be banned for that? He got equally upset as the example given here. Far more, in fact, he was using capslock and everything.

And that's the problem with subjectivity.


tl;dr: no you don't.

I would agree. And that has not changed :)

Malcanis put it on about 15 pages in.

Apparently there are going to be some more unwritten and unsubstantiated rules to prevent people from using this to meta people into getting banned.

This despite their firm affirmation to subjectivity in "the line" being crossed when someone gets upset.

"Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Thank you CCP. The threadnaught is dead (I wish i could of liked your lock post falcon) And We now know without a doubt where CCP stands.

Thank you, thank you thank you.


Who said the threadnaught is dead? Its just been moved here and we are already up to page 40 something, When I goto bed and wake up later I won't be shocked to see this one well over 100 pages also.

Where does CCP stand? The OP just sounds like a bunch of legal mumbo jumbo that says nothing.

us: Is the bonus round allowed?

normal answer: yes/no

Their answer: irrelevant stuff not answering the question
Apply the damn rules equally >.>

So if you've clearly defined the lines, is it against the rules to ransom for a song, and if a "victim" of the ransom were to feel harassed, would that mean it's over the line? How many songs are "too many"?

If it's so clear, it will be pretty straightforward to answer right?


Do you think you're capable of detecting when you're pushing another human being over the line?

I've earned my free holiday to Iceland, and you can all **** off and act like sensible human beings.
I believe I have not misbehaved. I was merely asking a question because I am genuinely interested in knowing the answer.
You should have asked sooner then. Too bad.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the CSM. How people that act like this voted against the long held HTFU nature of EVE and in favour of crying players with no self control I have no idea.


It is hilarious how butt hurt you are. I mean REALLY hilarious. He was elected CSM because he is a man of morality. He is mature enough to decide what is right and what is wrong, this has showed in his responses. The majority of the player base were able to see this and in turn voted for him. I wouldn't expect a fellow sociopath of Erotica 1 to understand this, it is clear in your posts you are just that. Nothing in the game has changed, only the same rules that have been here forever have been reinforced. So why are you so mad, really? Is it because you realize you are on the wrong side of this and are hopeless flailing around grasping at anything that may help prove your sadistic points? I think so.
How exactly am I butthurt? Just because I wan't clarification on the rules? I couldn't care less if they rule that we must spread love and peace throughout the game and drew pictures of rainbows, conversely I couldn't care less if they opted for complete anarchy, but people should be given a chance to make decisions based on rules, not just take chances at being banned any time people have a rageout.

And of course the rules have changed, Erotica 1 has been doing this for a long time, as have other scammers. To suggest nothing has changes is ludicrous.

That doesn't mean he doesn't deserve the same protection as everybody else, usually laws and policies apply to everyone.

Quite a lot of it actually.

You walk down any street in a lot of countries and just punch somebody in the face and give the excuse he is a racist, you will still be charged with a crime.


Congratulations on starting the original thread Kobol - not many people can say they kicked off that kind of shitfest!


Lol tell me about it. Never thought in a millions this would happen.

Truth is if didn't pretty damn sure somebody else would of done, I just got there first Lol

Well now. It appears those in this game that encourage treating other players with respect, having fun, and staying classy CAN still extract tears simply by espousing those same tenements.

My, it is a bright, sunny day today.

Before you relax, the word you meant to use is "tenets".


Well, balls.

Oh goodness, how wrong you are. It has been repeatedly reported in this thread that those have been, and will continue to be, completetly acceptable in game activities.

Are you reduced to just trolling now?

Where humans, their senses, and their values are involved, everything is subjective. You better get used to that.

Not at all, well if you lack any kind of comprehension of the English written language and are a total psychopath yeah maybe you will have some issues.

I heard that too...I think they are going to make it a thing in the next patch. No,not really I'm just messing with you.

Take a breath...in..now...out... Repeat after me: "Unless I go completely outside the bounds of acceptable human behavior I will still be able to do all the things I currently enjoy doing in this game" That help?

If you want examples of unacceptable human behavior listen to some E1 recordings.

Bullshit.


Its a quote from the CCP statement

Apparently you are one of those who cannot comprehend it that I refer to.

You could have just put your hand up, you know.

Sorry if not treating people with clear and extraordinary levels of real life harassment is difficult for you to adjust to.

Considering that I said that I wrote such a post myself you could - for example - left click on my name under my avatar picture to the left of my post, select "View posts" in the pop-up window and go look for the link yourself. And if you continue looking through my posts you'll even find a post from November last year which was about another case that happended in the bonus room and had me saying that "I wouldn't draw that much attention to myself, if I were involved with the bonus room".

But it's easier to act silly, isn't it?


Oh, wait, you want me to go treasure hunting for something that isn't there?
Where, since it was you who found the hidden shrine of clarity and could just re-provide it?
I am being silly right... haha, what am I thinking.... Someone said I wouldn't draw that much attention to myself that must be an excerpt from the EULA of EVE online.
I'll say something silly: No rules have been broken and I have the EULA, the TOS and international law to back it up.
