Assembly Hall

It was, but I don't trust the forums and wouldn't use it for that reason.

Our CEO put 50 mil on each of us and told us to go lose it within a week.

that was a hectic week of roaming but it was a good way of making sure you became immune to loss.

I've removed some more trolling from this thread.

"The Assembly Hall Section is there to encourage debate of the issues being presented." -CCP Eterne

There is nothing encouraging for any kind of debate here when players are spamming condescending remarks and blatantly trying to harass my character in-game via the bounty system.

As far as placing bounties on someone being any kind of badge of "respect" is complete nonsense. I highly doubt those who continue to waste isk by adding bounties on my character in-game are trying to show respect for my opinion.

Here is the official statement by CCP last year on player harassment after the fanfest:

"I want to reassure you that CCP in no way condones the harassment of players..."
-CCP public relations and social media specialist Ned Coker

I have played EVE for over ten years and will continue to not be idle about the recent bounty system changes. Regardless of the insistent trolling by a vocal minority, bounties based on forum posts are childish, not validly based on CCP's own bounty purpose statements and certainly not encouragement for players to post future posts.

wait because a number by your name increases you think that's harassment?

or is it because people who were going to kill you anyway now get a small reward to do so?

No wait maybe it's the wanted sign. Everyone should feel wanted though so it can't be that

I'm stumped

I'm okay with this, providing that the use of u instead of you as well as other gems such as 2 for to, c for see and the like come with either a suspect flag or a security status hit. It is for the use of these that I've placed about 90 percent of my bounties and I must be allowed to continue to bounty for these crimes.

Once again you provide a classic counter-example to your own positition by providing a game relevent example where someone was punished ("persecuted", if you will) for no other action than speaking some words.

So either you believe that Mittani's punishment was not justified or you believe that people should be able to put a bounty on other players for what they've said.

Which is it?

I'm starting to believe that he's actually a Tom Gerard style reverse troll out to ruin the "proposal" he pretends to support.

If so, well played good sir. Well played indeed.

Amen brother. +1 from me.

@mynnna:

I would not expect a person who cannot use proper capitalization of a name to understand the definition of the word 'action.'

It is unfortunate how everyone ignored the fact that CCP Eterne quote about this forum section being intended to be used to encourage debate on topics. Condescension and immaturely mocking remarks have no place in any kind of credible debate.

Threatening me with further bounties only proves you and others are trying to harass me based solely on my opinion which has never been stated in any CCP official capacity about the bounty system. Never mind the fact that harassment of players outside of a game is in fact considered illegal in many states in the US and internationally recognized by many countries including UK and Iceland specifically.

I am sure many of the more mentally unstable here might find that humorous, since I doubt they know much about anything involving legalities outside of taking note if they are within the legal drinking age in their region.

However the fact remains, consistent harassment outside of a game against the same person repeatedly online is something to not be taken lightly. Especially when certain people make the effort to search down a character in-game based on their name in a forum outside of a game.
