Originally by: Captain Politics 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.
There's an obvious solution - write more battle reports.

Edited by: Ishbuanium on 03/03/2009 14:38:49 I come to CAOD for one thing, laughs. That's all it is right now, funny stuff but it does have information if you know how to read it.
The point is that you seem to want CAOD to be a certain way but you don't seem to know how to go about doing it. YOU, yes YOU, need to create posts with, wait for it, ACTUAL CONTENT, rather than this sort of petition type stuff to ask for more moderation. And that's the simple reason most people wont take the request seriously. Because, if all of the goonie posts were moderated and none of the topics were posted, there wouldn't be a bloody CAOD. You say you want CAOD to return to the time back when it was good, but, assuming there even was a time like that, you fail to actually do anything to help promote it. Look at this, you create this petition sort of thread and people ARE responding with intelligent posts. Hell, you actually have to do something and not just wait on the mods to clean everything up. Try to make some battle reports and such, because it appears you have people to talk about them and comment on them in the way you want.

CAOD has been terrible for years.
Personal attack threads existed. Humiliation and gloating threads existed. Leak and laugh threads existed. Small report threads were called insignificant. Topics veered so far off topic they were locked. Inflaming sigs were allowed. Conflicts got bigger and bigger.
All of these happened before Goons. That they happen more now is not the fault of a single Alliance. I would love to see more constructive topics that are kept cleaner, but that is not up to me. People have to want to post and the moderators have to be willing to moderate. Pointing fingers in this thread is a useless.

This.
CAOD, along with all of the Eve forums are collaborative projects. If they're a bit rubbish, then ultimately we're all to blame.

There's a lot of bitter people posting a lot of words about a spaceship video game forum.
I'll repeat this again, if you dont like the state of caod do something interesting and make your own threads about it.
Of course that would mean logging in and actually playing the game, instead of just posting about it.

Originally by: Avernus Best thread I've read in well over a month.
What strikes me immediately about it (perhaps other threads of a similar vein got moved as suggested), but it's the first one I've seen that intelligently derides the state of this forum section; on top of that, I can't help but notice exactly who is posting here. It's not the usual crowd, I see a lot of old and new faces. Why? Because this thread isn't utter crap perhaps, it doesn't follow the usual flow of what constitutes diatribe and discourse in this cesspit. It has hit six pages... and I was able to read the WHOLE THING... and only HALF OF IT WAS CRAP!
I'd call it a miracle, but the Goons would flame me for being a ex-fixie bible thumper.
The primary reason the majority of threads here follow the same damn topic day in, day out, is because anyone outside the sphere of primacy, is shat upon by those who are. Most posters, even if they have something interesting to say or discuss, won't touch this forum because of it. There is no strong oversight. Hell, I agree with the people who say 'bring on the bans'.
Great points have been raised here. First being, CAOD has never been some sort of enlightened bastion, but I'd differ with others' opinion on the concentration of crap floating on the surface over the course of time. Jade made some great points, unfortunately these days (and most likely days past as well), Jade draws serious flak, and Jade can't stay on fracking topic once it gets going. It's not Goons who have done it alone, there are other alliances and individuals that are just as guilty of bringing in real life issues and conjectures. Ban them, ban all of them. There should be zero tolerance for that bull, way too much is allowed to slide in that category.
Should there be a place for vicious insidious propaganda? Hell yes, absolutely. This is Eve. But keep your in-game attack to one thread, keep it in some semblance of context.
This thread isn't about the state of CAOD and comparing it to different incarnations. It's about what CAOD should be.
Basically I agree. However, as a newcomer I don't feel any fear of posting or getting stomped over. I refrain from posting in inflamed threads because they are inflamed, and there isn't much point in shoving your hand into a a garbage pit in order to clean it up. At some point the moderators will notice it to be as so and put the lead on it so no one should allow it to overflow, nor make the innocent get trapped with an innocent comment.
I don't see any need for uber-moderation, unlike the post I've supported earlier. I believe that people should grow some skin and acquire some taste, and if they are disliking someone, all they need to do is avoid reading their posts. Be selective, ignore, repress... very basic psychological tools any 6 years old sports. And most kids also know that if they ignore someone they don't like long enough, that someone will get bored of trying to bug them.
I'm really not insinuating to anyone here being such and such - obviously everyone will just point on their opposition in a second and prove+ignore this point I'm trying to make.
I was also planning on stating that walls of texts rarely serve their purposes, but I already seem to have a small tower erected here. Oh well, so be it... Do - don't die trying. |

ItÆs about time this topic was addressed and CAOD was cleaned up. I have a lot of very important topics to address and they always seem to get clouded by posts that have no business being posted.
Thank you.

Originally by: Avernus
Yet he's contributed more meaningful/interesting discussion to this forum with this one thread than has been presented this entire week. Not a bad example of what CAOD could be?
No, he has not.
Meant the OP, wasn't referring to Jade, who is a double edged sword imo... Jade comes up with some great ideas, tends to cut the same thread to shreds as it progresses (multiple reasons for it) and draw attention away from those ideas. Self defeating.
Originally by: McEivalley Basically I agree...
I don't call for uber-moderation either, unless it's a personal out of game based attack. It's been done to several people at this point. If someone's personal enjoyment of the game is being threatened.... GO FOR IT! Not to my taste perhaps, but I've seen several players and alliance leaders drummed out of this game for their game related actions. Cyvok comes to mind (can't recall if there were out of game accusations, but I don't think so); trying to remember what exactly Ragnar and his magic hat got drummed out for.
That could involve meta based activities that have resulted in meetings and chatlogs, alliance posts, whatever. I've been on the end of several, doesn't really bother me, though it has resulted in some rather crap days. In turn, I've been relatively vicious towards others here on occasion (of course, I felt it was called for if they were an 'asshat'). I like the fact that Eve is gritty, and anything based in-game, is free game.
The point I'm likely unsuccessfully making here, is that for all the gritty stuff that I'm a supporter of in this forum, is that wading through the threads and being selective in what you read, has become akin to eating a sh*t sandwich and remarking on how the bread is fresh.

I quite like CAOD, it often has information that hasn't made it onto scrapheap gbbs yet, but obviously you have to read both if you want to have a clue as to the more significant events taking place.
Sure it could probably benefit from more quality goon posts and less pointless spam ones, but those weren't really that big a problem until Jade started blatantly trolling and flaming them in every thread, poking the beehive as it were.
Bitterdog calling for removing this forum entirely is pretty ******ed, stop reading it and posting on it if that's what you think, your posts are almost always crap anyway.

Originally by: Lunas Feelgood 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..
How about not constantly dragging goons, bob or PL into the matter? For me the point is not their struggle or if Bob/MC started it all. It simply needs to stop and CCP needs to start moderating these forums.

Originally by: "CCP Navigator" Areas like CAOD, for example, are areas which should be generating interesting discussions about changes in 0.0 politics, Alliance creation and changes to sovereignty etc. This has not been the case of late and a lot of this was due to alt posting.
The Community Team are listening to the requests of players to make the forums more informative and spam free. We are committed to providing players the platform to discuss topics of interest in a warm and friendly environment.

This is accurate. The killmail system was implemented because of CAOD, and the oft heated discussions on how many battleships people killed.
