In-Game Events and Gatherings

I have removed some rule breaking posts and those quoting them. As always I let some edge cases stay.
Please people, keep it on topic and above all civil!

Thread re-opened.

The rules:
2. Be respectful toward others at all times.

The purpose of the EVE Online forums is to provide a platform for exchange of ideas, and a venue for the discussion of EVE Online. Occasionally there will be conflicts that arise when people voice opinions. Forum users are expected to be courteous when disagreeing with others.

3. Ranting is prohibited.

A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.

4. Personal attacks are prohibited.

Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another forum user. Posts of this nature are not beneficial to the community spirit that CCP promote and as such they will not be tolerated.

5. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.

12. Spamming is prohibited.

Spam is defined as the repetitive posting of the same topic or nonsensical post that has no substance and is often designed to annoy other forum users. This can include the words “first”, “go back to (insert other game name)” and other such posts that contribute no value to forum discussion. Spamming also includes the posting of ASCII art within a forum post.

19. All posts must be related to EVE Online.

Posts regarding other companies and products or services are prohibited and any content of this nature will be removed. Posts regarding other games are however permitted on the Out of Pod Experience forum for the purposes of discussion only.

21. Posting regarding RMT (Real Money Trading) is prohibited.

Posts discussing, linking to, or advertising RMT, including but not limited to the sale of in game items, assets, currency, characters or game accounts for real life money are strictly prohibited.

22. Post constructively.

Negative feedback can be very useful to further improve EVE Online provided that it is presented in a civil and factual manner. All users are encouraged to honestly express their feelings regarding EVE Online and how it can be improved. Posts that are non-constructive, insulting or in breach of the rules will be deleted regardless of how valid the ideas behind them may be. Users are also reminded that posting with a lack of content also constitutes non-constructive posting.

26. Off-topic posting is prohibited.

Off-topic posting is permitted within reason, as sometimes a single comment may color or lighten the tone of discussion. However, excessive posting of off-topic remarks in an attempt to derail a thread may result in the thread being locked, or a forum warning being issued.

31. Rumor mongering is prohibited.

Rumor threads and posts which are based off no actual solid information and are designed to either troll or annoy other users will be locked and removed. These kinds of threads and posts are detrimental to the well being and spirit of the EVE Online Community, and can create undue panic among forum users, as well as adding to the workload of our moderators.

Ya no, you are not some one that should get hired by CCP.


Begging for money on a stream is not a quality you want in your employees.

Showing Racist views, sexism toward women and a general lack of professionalism.



Just my personal thoughts, then again CCP hired mint chip in all her wisdom.

So maybe you got a shot here if you grovel hard enough with the scrub lords of your stream.

Nope cannot support someone that has displayed sexist and racist views as if it were the "thing" to do in 2013.

Nah, let his views remain his and not taint CCP with someone that does not know enough to remain neutral at worst about those things. Grow up Mad Ani.

You are not community team material, you are short tempered, impatient, immature and unprofessional.

I still remember that time when your girlfriend needed your attention for a few minutes, you forgot that you were jumping through a gate and when you came back you found yourself podded. Instead of being reasonable and buying a new frigate from the 50 billion ISK in donations that you have you decided to tear your girlfriend apart on stream in front of all your viewers for daring to talk to you.

That's the kind of thing you do every night when someone new to Eve comes on your stream and dares to ask a question "What's going on?", snapping at them for asking a question that anyone new would want to ask.

Also learn to take criticism, banning and giving viewers abuse might seem funny to your group of die hard fans but it doesn't look so good to everyone else that sees it.

So I was initially on the "Hire Ani!" bandwagon, but after reading this thread, I really have to change my vote. Ani introduced me to the game but I really think there are better people out there for it.

CCP really does need to have more player events and stream them with good commentary though. I would love to see some newb PVP fleets going at each other.

this is beyond pathetic

Don't hate on my broadcast centers.

Was going to post something like this myself but yours is too good so I will quote for truth.

From my experience being in the stream on 2 big fights there was no talk about the fight itself, it was just you talking about yourself and asking for donations and playing ads while every few minutes you would tell a random new person asking "What is going on" to go watch some other highlight as you wont explain it again for them.

**** just got all real up in here.

No vote from me. I didn't even know who Mad Ani was until I read this post.
