Is there a channel for sharing pictures of attractive girls? If yes, point me there and I'll shut up. If not, there are plenty of other places to take such activities to and EVE is not one of them.


A goon and you don't know about fapswarm?

He also seems unaware that Goons have an LGBT sig, perhaps he should voice his concerns to them as well.

I have this rule. If you replace the word in a phrase from a minority to a majority, and then it sounds like a silly or bad idea, then it doesn't make sense to do.

For example straight pride parade instead of gay pride parade, or white history month instead of black history month.

Or in this case, heterosexual chat channel instead of LGBT chat channel. Well at least inside a video game.

I'm not knocking people different than me, but equality and common sense goes both ways. This isn't needed.

There are plenty of chat rooms for this that you could easily have open while mining or something. If it was a support group or something for people looking for people to talk to that are going through a rough time i could see it. But just to BS and share pictures?

Tell me what do you think about black history month.


Before I get started. My girlfriend lives with me and we plan to get married. She was born in Trinidad and is black.

I find something like black history month as sort of a reverse racism thing. People would be up in arms over a white history month. It's another form of segregation when we are supposed to be equal. We can't have true equality until it's just "history month" so to speak. Black history month isn't about how we overcame slavery, it's about all the black people that contributed to society over the years as if they need special mention just because they where Black. The only thing I know about the guy who invented penute butter is that he was black. Why does it matter what color he was? What color someone's skin is shouldn't matter to us anymore then what color there hair is. Why do people constantly feel the need to segregate and remind everyone and think that it matters somehow. Race specific things should not exist at all, in any form.

I'm a guy who likes sex with attractive females, is there a channel for me with pictures of hot chicks? Can I come to your channel and check out the female pics? Will you discriminate against me due to my love of boobs while having a penis?

I love you all!

There are many, and if you haven't stumbled across one by now I would call into question whether you actually play eve at all.

I personally would rather everyone just STFU about it so no arguments like that has to be made. I play a game to play a game, not hear who like to be with or without what.

No such thing. There is racism. Period.

Reverse racism is a term that is the product white privilege and the underlying concept that white is the norm and anything else is somehow less important.

Sad to see this ideology is still as common as it is.

I actually agree with that. The only reason I ever use the phrase is so less open minded people know WTF I'm talking about.

But if something is about race, then it's racist. Doesn't matter wich way it goes. Race shouldn't ever be part of the topic at hand. Well unles you and your wife are the same color and she just had a baby that comes no where near to matching lol but thays another story.

Same goes with the whole LGBT thing. Besides being a way to braid grouping of people, the need for classification is pointless. I also like the point the one person made about how he likes boobies, so why wouldn't he be able to post pics of boobies in a lesbian channel. It should be a boobie channel not a lesbian channel. Another reason a LGBT channel makes no sense. Tjeres both people that like men and women there same as if it where a straight channel. As for the transgender part... The same. So why would it exist?

I don't actively seek out porn when playing EVE, odd as that may seem. I had to look really hard, but porn does seem to exist outside of EVE. And it even works with the client closed, how about that?

He also seems unaware that Goons have an LGBT sig, perhaps he should voice his concerns to them as well.

I went there for a couple weeks after it was first created, but I ended up not being any more interested in staying there than I have been with other such groups, online and in person. And honestly, as a bi guy who just dates girls, I never really feel like I belong in any of these groups or that they really have anything to offer me.

I won't even go into how much I feel like an imposter trying to be part of these groups due to my aforementioned romantic preferences. I figure to them I might as well be just another straight guy.

It's worth noting that the in game browser has terrible security and you really shouldn't use it for such purposes.

I'll tell you a secret. Every guy is bi whether they care to admit it or not. All we really care about is the payoff, not who we do it with to get there.

Hell, most of us would **** a Coke machine if no one was looking.

Mr Epeen Cool

Most people seem to mean "reverse racism" as in racism against white people (and you'd be surprised how many people will vehemently deny that it exists), but W33b3l seems to mean "benevolent racism".

Regardless, racism doesn't have a standard "direction" and even if your intentions are good discriminating on the basis of race is still racism. It's the same with sexism, by the way. There's a huge amount of institutionalized sexism against men in Western countries and it's hidden in plain sight. Most men are aware of at least a few disadvantages they face on the basis of their gender, but we don't really have a massive social movement that helps us to connect the dots.

Please forgive my rambling, by the way. I've been awake for about 20 hours and spent maybe 16 of those coding more or less nonstop.

The vast majority of people are not going to bother to check whether or not the porn sites they visit are using SSL, and most of those who know how to don't really care.

Beyond that, I really don't know of any way for the IGB to download a virus or anything like that. It has JavaScript but that's about it. No HTML5, no Flash, no Java, and no other plugins.

Also.. Depending on what type of stuff you are sharing or linking in an in game channel, it could be against the EULA. If we are talking dirty pictures and it was reported, you could face a possible ban. Best to do that elswhere.
