Sorry Earth, I know you've "always" (read: forever) been a planet, but you're not longer allowed to be a planet.
You're now only allowed to be a fruitcake. A delicious one.

As a CAOD reader and poster the last 6 years I can say for 100% surdency that CAOD havent change abit..
This is absolute rubbish and you know it.
These days CAOD is just repeated threads filled with Goon spam and cut and paste meme's, none of it particularly informative, witty, or amusing. There was a time Goons didn't post on CAOD and it was certainly better for it. And I say that as someone who used to pretty much loathe BoB, but the Goons have successfully turned that one around with their incessant spam.
BoB used to post a lot, and yes it was full of spin and chestbeating, but it was nothing like what it is today with endless cyclical trolling. The general vibe these days is - open thread, scroll down one page of 90% goon cut and paste memes, roll eyes, close thread.
This forum is basically a waste of time for anyone who doesn't pay money to post on SA. Which incidentally, is most well adjusted human beings.
But then I suppose I should expect nothing better from an online 'community' who's real lives are so incredibly lacking they do pay RL money to post on a forum, and wear it as a kind of strange badge of pride. There really is no limit to the stupidity of the human race.
I half agree with you.
In the old days, CAOD was still full of rehashed internet memes, baseless propaganda and personal insults. Indeed, at least one poster in this thread who claims that things were better back then was guilty of all three!
If there is a difference between now and then it's that there used to be more serious debate as well.
So the issue as far as I'm concerned is not why we see so much rubbish, but rather why we see so little quality.
Let's improve the noise to signal ratio!

That's perhaps unfair. I've seen many posters pointing out that "CAOD has always been like this" and "BOB did this all the time." You can't use precident to justify continuing something. Also, if the Earth had a forum it would probably describe it as a "large round kinda rocky object", much like CAOD is describes as IC 0.0 discussion. If it was a fruitcake something would be seriously wrong, much like CAOD being the troll forum is a symptom of something being seriously wrong. ________________________________________________

Having played the game for just over a year now I can't comment on any time before that. I tend to read this forum a lot less than most of the others, reason is that it's simply full of garbage. The majority of garbage does seem to be posted by Goons (not all). I know they have this "thing" going where it's cool to post like a troglodyte and take a carp in as many serious post's as possible but it does get tiring after a while. So like most others to find out what's happening without all of the excrement posts I look elsewhere.... *cough* SHC *cough*.
The one thing I don't understand is how the Goons there manage to post with a reasonable level of intelligence (maybe they didn't get the memo about acting like a petulant child/idiot???).

regardless of whether you think this or not, it is not disputed that it is currently full of cyclical trolling, memes, and goon spam, to the point of being completely unreadable
CCP basically need to get rid of the forum, or moderate the hell out of it and issue bans en mass

CAOD was always a bit rubbish, but these days it's noticeably more rubbish. all you can do is report any content that has no place on CAOD and/or ignore it.
i know it's a cliche, but if you deny random ****posters the oxygen of attention, they'd eventually get bored and go back to whatever they did before CAOD apparently stopped permabanning accounts for being consistently crap.

Originally by: Myz Toyou It was allways a propanada tool used to damage the moral of your current enemy and the once you have beaten in the past. What changed is the fact that we now have 10 useless ( because its pure spam ) threads per day instead of the 10 per week we had a few years back. Other thing that has changed is that back in the day even if you were enemies you would atleast let corp-birthday threads unflamed/spammed, thats gone ( hi Edfrom..... ) I think it has become that way because all the ones that post now like crazy were for years on the recieving end of BOBs propaganda maschine and now have grown a boner over the downfall of BOB witch makes them cum/post all day long.
You are overcomplicating it a bit I think. There might be a little bit of this going on but in the end you see so many threads and posts because we really like to post.

alternatively, propaganda is both entirely acceptable and an interesting addition to the game if it's in-keeping with the the spirit of the eve universe.
in the distant future, millions of lightyears from earth, i honestly doubt the Amarrian empress would choose a selection of choice 4chan memes to address the galaxy's assembled pilots.
are you calling us bad roleplayers?

Edited by: Lunas Feelgood on 03/03/2009 13:19:09 Omg the bobie tears from bob fanboys and bobies are sweet..
Could the reason be why so many post on CAOD is from Goons isthat they actually got the balls to post wiht there mains??
If you dont like the state of CAOD stop posting with you alts. And if you still dont like CAOD stop reading it..
These are the only solution I can come up with for the emotionel CAOD reader.
anyway bobies contionue with you crying its so funny
Edit: Not only do they live in wonderland ingame but somehow they wanna turn COAD into another wonderland..

When I started reading these forums there was some battlereports and some clever propaganda etc. Right now, there is one battle report in the first 5 pages of the COAD the rest is pure flaming/trolls etc.
Right now as I see it we have 7-9 noteworthy threads in the first 250 threads coad, thats a really high noise/content ratio.
As far as I see it the few good threads are the:
The Titan list This thread A few happy birthday threads A few standings resets threads And a few clever propaganda threads about delve etc.
We need more modding and forum banning of alt alliances.

'us'? are you saying that you're trolling the forums?
i was saying that most of the spam clogging CAOD's straining arteries is boring, derivative and irrelevant. similarly abuse aimed at the players behind the characters, accusations of RMT, all that sort of thing has no place on this forum.
it's to CCP's discredit that they haven't adopted a more pro-active slash&burn approach to the CAOD trolls main accounts.

A very good example of trolling a thread that has not a lot to do with the current politics, lunas imo hasnt really got a perception of the game nor CAOD from the statements made, wouldnt suprise me if the char is recently acquired lol
we accept Lunas, Flames and trolling has always occured to a greater or lesser degree in CAOD, what the majority of people dont accept is the constant no content trolling and threads that seem to have become the flavour and has now increased to such a point over the last 2 years or so that all CAOD has become is a larger and deeper cess pool of spam posts/threadnoughts and trolls
