I have added you to my watch-list with the following tag "Homosexual". If I see you in local, will kill on sight.

Not necessary, few thing one needs to keep in mind;
1) "Homosexual" is not a derogatory word http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality
2) If I want to kill all characters in eve whom I tag "homosexual" that is my personal preference.

No, this kind of language is not ok with everyone in EVE. Petition the **** out of the guys.

(And yes, there is a difference between saying **** in public and using gay as insult. If you people really cannot figure it out yourselves, I can explain.)

Sure, a petition is the most useful way to deal with this but a post is appropriate, too. EVE culture is something that affects us all and discussion about it shouldn't be hidden away from public view. Talk about it as much as you like. I, for one, am waiting for CCP to take the issue of their degrading community seriously. Sure, you may still make bucketloads of money with servers full of racist, hateful retards - but why would you want to support such people. EVE can be a better place than this, goddamn, half the replies in this thread only reaffirm the OP.

Congratulations you just reaffirmed every reason they had to smack you in the first place by showing how much it bothered you.

Assuming that people who oppose to racist/sexist/homophobic slurs do so because they are terribly upset about it is a mistake.

If you cannot tell apart "wahwahwah someone called me gay as an insult, my day is ruined" from "uh guys, do we really want our game to be full of this kind of ****" you need to grow up a little, really. Blink

That solves the problem for the OP, sure.

It does not solve the problem for the next twenty rookies who would also not prefer to see the crap.

Petition, then block.

How old are you? Shouldn't you know how to deal with bullies/immature people? Never give them ammunition.

Not saying what they did is acceptable. More like people are going to be dicks... Best learn to deal with it, and coming to the forums probably not helping your cause.

Hate speech? Really? Of all the politically correct fads of the past two decades, this one is the most idiotic, especially if you live in a nation where free speech is a right (that being said, CCP is a private company and can enforce whichever regulations they want). I am so sick and tired of whiny people crying about hate speech.

Here's an idea, how about you put on your big boy pants and just ignore it. Really? You're getting offended about a bunch of words, in a video game? There are many rights you're entitled to, but being offended isn't one of them.

Wait, I just checked. There is no "Hurt Feelings" category in petition form.... welp. Someone please call the moral police.
