I'm not pretending anything. Erotica 1 got himself banned.

Ripard, however, engaged in a completely unnecessary and purposeless witch hunt. Erotica had used quite enough rope to hang himself without Ripard going off and further embarrassing the other player, who ultimately admitted to not feeling all that victimized.

That is precisely my issue with him as well.


And dinsdale...bad form.

They have the same level of hatefulness and intelligence.

Jester / Ripard is a good, literate writer even if people didn't agree with all the messages.

Every time a literate writer hangs up the pen, EVE dies a little. Because if people aren't writing about you (EVE) then... your (EVE's) mind-share relevance - decreases.

Funny what happens when a target of that much hate removes himself from the situation. The implosion when his detractors have nothing else to do with their time will be spectacular.

Pfft...

I hope everyone would love/hate me as much if I did start the Ramonamobile, as was suggested to me before

Would you call "Fit of the Week" posts irrelevant? That was probably the most non-political writing he did, good discussion fodder for all EVE players, newbies and pro's alike.

308 comments so far, of which 99% are positive. The closure of Jester's Trek has set a milestone of unconceivable agreement on something related to EVE. Lol

Q: Should we be worried? A: Nope. (...) Worry a lot if Fozzie, Masterplan, Rise, Veritas, Bettik, Ytterbium, Scarpia, Arrow, or even Greyscale leaves. Worry a little if Punkturis, karkur, SoniClover, Affinity, Goliath, or Xhagen leaves.

This is why I suspect he may be a goon alt, set up so that the rest of the goons have something to post about Smile

Okay, yes, that part I can agree with.

If it could have been handled with direct dialogue to GMs, that would have been preferable. I don't know if such a thing was attempted. I never did because I had no direct evidence, only information that other people had posted.


previous bonus rooms of E1s had had GM intervention.
if i'm not mistaken (which, i may be) the GMs reimbursed all of the lost SP after constant podding when the owner of the account apparently blamed it on his brother.

Heavy Rayne petitioned CCP, claiming his brother had accessed his account and gotten himself podded. CCP didn't return the money/assets that had been transferred to Erotica 1, but despite it being against the rules to share accounts, CCP was surprisingly receptive to the "my brother did it" excuse. The Heavy Rayne API revealed that CCP restored all of the lost skillpoints to the Heavy Rayne character!
I think E1 made a thread in c&p about it too, but it's not in his first 35 pages of posting history unlike that link being on page 1 of google.

until ripard started the witch hunt, ccp seemed perfectly ok with what he was doing. E1 getting banned only happened because ripard kicked up a fuss about it. or conversely, it only took E1 that long to get banned because CCP didn't bother enforcing their own rules. whichever you'd rather.
it still remains that CCP knew exactly what E1 was doing, and let him carry on with it.

If indeed it is the case that Jester managed to get Ero banned on a personal whim, then to be honest, I am mightily impressed.

It was the ultimate gank really, and Jester should be congratulated not damned for his action.

Of course, we all know that Ero got Ero banned.
