Game of Thrones spoilers are getting out of hand; step up CCP

There is a new way of griefing in EVE for those who are unaware: The posting of Game of Thrones spoilers in various chat channels.

We have players joining corps just to "AWOX" them with spoilers. Main trade hubs have people spamming spoilers over and over again. I've even see a player request that others check out his bio, only for their to be a spoiler.

CCP, take action here please. Muting these players as punishment is not enough. Giving them a warning so they walk away with a smile and never do it again is not enough. Send a strong message here and please release a statement warning these players in advance that any deliberate posting of spoilers for the sake of pissing off others will be met with a swift ban of all accounts for X amount of time.

To keep things in perspective, I've had only 2 episodes spoiled. It's more the principle really, and knowing I'll actively avoid reading local chats in main trade hubs over this fiasco to avoid anything further. This is why I'm calling for immediate bans to these players. They are as toxic as can be when it comes to promotion of the social aspects of EVE.

It's gotten so bad in fact, I refuse to read any of the replies in this thread out of fear that one of these people will use it as an opportunity to post more spoilers. I've also disabled my communications on this character entirely to make sure no one PM's me a spoiler due to my posting of this thread. That's right CCP; that is how bad it has gotten.

It's funny to see all the interesting ways people in EVE interact.

Seriously. I walked in on it. Saw some naked dude on top of another naked dude in bed. Said WTF? And left.

Good drama is one thing. Gross sexual explicity is another. Im not willing to compromise one for the other. Turned off my cable not long afterwards. Gross!

Amazingly, the answer is yes.

Yet another reason to not have cable, there is very little worth watching.

Not sure if you are serious or taking the ****, but I'm leaning towards taking the ****.

Either way, your name without the 'r' seems relevant to the significance of the issue.

This isn't a thing, and it isn't going to be a thing even if you try to make it a thing.

*******Spoiler Alert******

I've read the books. Mr. Martin was kind enough to let me read the rough drafts of the rest of the books. In the end Hodor and Bran are the only original characters left alive. Bran uses Hodors body to rule as the king of the seven kingdoms, and still takes control of a dragons mind from time to time to fly about. The End.

I said nothing about religion.

Religion doesnt equal good tastes.

Catelyn Tully isn't really dead. At least not all the way.

Also, Oberyn Martell gets killed by the Mountain.

Have a nice day.
