@ CCP, why do you have rules that you refuse to enforce?

Derogatory term used to describe anyone playing a multiplayer game that isn't a member of the Something Awful forums, typically goons treat them like lower class garbage and expose themselves as scumbag garbage in the process. While it can be great to grief the doucebag teens that plague online games goons have decided that even the average joe is worth being ****** with for laughs.


Figured I would clear that up for you; I will retract this statement when you post your SA UserName.

You are a ******* terribad rules lawyer. Absolutely awful. You're arguing a totally ******* moot point. I never said I wasn't a "pubbie". The kind of **** that would say something like that was the target of my mockery. Well played.

That was unnecessary, and you actually lost. Failed at reading and understanding.. Happens sometimes...

If memory serves, he lost his argument on page 3 or 4; you know when it was explained, in detail; why his definition of griefing wasn't against the rules, nor is any other form of it save can-baiting in a starter system or any continuation of systems en-route to further tutorial missions.

I appreciate your opinion though, and please remember its an opinion- and in no manner has any impact on the actual FACT that 'griefing' is a playstyle, and regardless as to how butthurt the OP is because he has been griefed at some point; doesn't make it a bannable offense, nor does it constitute griefing. Do you watch the same EvE trailers I do? Welcome to the game you chose to play it, normally when someone comes to the realization that this is no longer the game that they either thought they were playing or don't care to play, they quit.

I honestly suggest both of you do that. Immediately.

There is no argument here. Griefing exists in EvE, and you telling me that I am a "pubbie" is completely irrelevant. I never even said I wasn't. I was directly mocking you and the goons. Feel free to tell me that my "definition" is wrong some more, its really helping your case.

You're taking this pretty bad mate.

I called you a pubbie true, and given the appropriate feedback I would have taken back what I said- So technically by not refuting what I said you basically called yourself a pubbie. (I just won Internet Spaceship Forums).

While your entitled to spout on and on about griefing all you want, even though its already been stated and explained, in detail by numerous people at this point, your entire argument is wrong. The title of your thread is wrong, as is your entire viewpoint. I fail to see why I would have to do anything to 'help my case' when I have already proven my case (and the fact that you are wrong).

Feel free to let this thread die now, it should have happened days ago- but you keep coming back to whiteknight yourself in some rediculous cause that you are going to sway CCP into doing something about griefing or at least having them expunge on their vague meaning of the word. Your determination should be applauded sir, even if you are wrong.

You can let it die anytime you want, especially since you feel you are "right" and I have been proven "wrong". And since I am not making an case for or against anything in this thread, you can keep on claiming that "my argument is wrong" all you want. Feel free to keep being my tool and bumping it. I know it wasn't you that read it 3700 times.

Then you should report it when you see it. Griefing is against the ToS.
