EVE General Discussion

The list is getting longer. This starts to look like hard work. +1 for ISD Ezwal!

What a monumental act of assery. I wonder if they've scratched the surface of this crime yet. Additional pun.

I again had to remove some rule breaking posts and those quoting them. Please people, keep it civil.

Wow...this is about as low as you can sink. In game I hate tons of people, corps, and alliances; however, out of game, I really dont have a passionate hate for them. I consider eve real, but this goes beyond the spirit of the game. Yes, kill and blow someone elses stuff up in game, steal it, make them cry, but when it comes to RL...thats crossing the line.

I hope CCP can get that name repaired on the monument, everyone deserves to have their name there. I agree with the sentiment of others though, if found responsible who ever did this should be perma-banned. If you can not respect the community out of game, then this obviously is not a game for you.

Why are you so surprised? EvE is above all a deep game. Yet 80% of the players never will know as they are only able to see they can grief and seek victory in 'colecting tears'. Tears are not a value in market, not betters your dps, nor... anything at all in game. It affects the feelings of the other persone who feels grieved, sometimes a lot.

I know so many times this has being discused and even fought. But the point here is not in game but irl, the kind op people is playing EvE and why are they attracted to it.

I started playing in 2008 and I have seen this game getting worse and worse at the player base no matter the tremendous efforts from CCP to create an incredible scy-fi universe for us to inhabit, conquer, warfare or the miriad of activities possible only here.

Nope, I am not surprised at all because of what this subnormals did to the monument.

I'm more than surprised, I'm shocked.

I hope CCP come down on the person who did it like a ton of bricks, from a very great height.

Ha! I love The Mittani's voiced disgust on that Twitter post, because we all know he's a man of such high moral fiber.

Yes, it's vandalism. No, it shouldn't have happened. Yes, it's a **** move.

Any word on how much that real life e-peen monument cost to build? Like someone said before, it's a monument to a bank account dressed up as an homage to players. Personally, I'd rather have WiS and new shiny ships than a monument. I'm sure some people let go after that 20 million euro loss would rather have jobs, too.

The point is that the focus here should be the fact that an Eve player committed an act of vandalism at Fanfest, not that an Eve player committed an act of vandalism on a phallic e-peen video game monument. All these comments like, "Oh, you're such a horrible person" and "You should be beaten severely" are just as ridiculous. Get over yourselves and your bleeding hearts. Someone scratched someone's name out on a chunk of metal, and while it's rude, classless, and petty, people are rude, classless, and petty every single day. Go to any major city and see graffiti ruining facades of historic, MEANINGFUL landmarks and cultural treasures. It's a travesty.

This is not. This is a crime, and should be dealt with as such. People have made other people literally cry in Eve, yet we all love "the tears". Scratch someone's name on a monument, post it on Twitter, and people will actually call you the famous German dictator. Go ahead...check it out...it's in the comment section of the Twitter post.

Let's get this straight: it's fine to torment people in-game to the point of tears or extreme bouts of rage, yet scratch someone's name out on a monument (again, it's a crime...but you're treating it as a crime against humanity) and all of a sudden you're outraged and all take the moral high ground.

Got it.

Let CCP clean it up and charge the guy who did it. Everyone else should save their ever-present outrage and go blow up more spaceships. "It's just the internet" doesn't apply anymore. Being a **** is being a ****, wherever you are.

Lets add another bit
During pub crawl I tried to snag one of the sweet polar beer hats (seriously did you guys tack weld those things to your skulls?)
I ended up gettng my arm jammed out of socket, a submission hold, some one trying to choke me in a restraint, a rather sizable bruise on my arm and a shaved knuckle

I ended up being tracked down and apologized to by the hat defenders the next day.

So here is something that by all rights they acted as they should in defending their leader's hat and they came and managed to find and apologize to me.

And you say its normal to deface property from this?

Incidentally the airplane seats did more damage and I am currently restricted in how my back moves due to that
zero g harnesses when?

Oh and the punch to the head QI got when I started switching peoples hats when they went for the flags

I think I have a thing for hats when I drink
Still beat most of you though with the not having a hangover bit despite drinking more tequila than you

I could not care less about this, but am enjoying reading about how much you people do as I pet my dog.

Visited the monument at about 6PM on the 5th to find my name and there's a bunch of scratches around it ( http://media.fyre.co/fTAYkHPlTqk6TfYP2bjL_nyphur.jpg ). It looks accidental though and it'll probably buff out, I'm just annoyed at myself for not getting a photo earlier before it was scratched up. How hard is it to scratch anodized aluminium?
