Hi all,
This is probably a stoopid' question and I have a feeling I'm gonna regret it...
Is there a dedicated Comedy channel in Eve? Or has there been in the past?
There seems to be all kinds of other types of chat and there is some comedy going on in them with a bit of banter back and forth until it invariably deteriorates to smack talk and abuse.
I can't seem to find any references in Google on Eve comedy and I find it hard to believe there isn't such a thing.
Even Eve Radio, it seems, only throw in a comedy session occasionally but don't appear to have a dedicated Comedy slot.
Surely everyone in the game can't be that serious all the time...?

Most of the threads there are dumb and fail. But occasionally you find "gems" that keep you entertained for days on end (The Joe Show anyone?). "Just because I look like an idiot doesn't mean I am one." ~Unknown |

There should be a comedy award, and that phone-sex recording = gold.

Thank you ShahFluffers. I need to read up on that one - The Joe Show? - sounds intriguing...
And thank you Chribba. I'd be happy to accept a list of nominations for comedian of the year and post it on the website for players to vote and maybe even set up a prize for the winner
We could call it something catchy like the Chortle Comedy Prize or CCP for short...
At least then I'd get to know where all the humour was 'cos I seem to be missing out...

Heh, the first suggested made me giggle because we in the IEEE have already taken interest in this, or at least i did, i think i need to get my fellow joe hunters along and try to find the true gems.

Just had a quick look and sheriff would be a nominatee for sure - I need to go and read more of it but I liked the first page
Thanks Dracoknight - I'm not up on this Joe stuff but looks like he would be a nominee as well.
Anyone got any other stuff they can recommend for a laugh?

Well, imo any of the forum sections can be funny at times. The best humor is of usually not intentional. A good example is this thread: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1021382
wich is the funniest thing I've ever read on these forums. There were some others, but I've long since forgotten what they were all about.

Outstanding Fille Balle - simply outstanding!
I was pleased that Steeel Rod took all that mockery on the chin
Not sure he would be a nominee for the CCP award tho' but then we do need someone to present it and it would save us buying a tray...

That's a variation on the earlier skyflyer incident here. Which isnt as funny as it was back then, unless you keep in mind, that in '07, due to a rare avatar render bug, the poor sod looked like

Oh man, that thread still delivers. Skyflyer's fist response to the "Dude, your face" was classic. Especially considering the topic of his post was never ever even remotely addressed.
EDIT: For anybody who doesn't remember or doesn't know, all skyflyer had for a face was two eyes floating above his neck.

Maybe we should have another award category for Monster User Graphic (MUG)

My thanks to all who have provided pointers to sources of humour in one form or another.
I'm much obliged for the responses and only wish I had more time to scour the forums for more. Its funny how the most innocuous post can end up with a side splitter result...
In particular I'd like to thank Joe for his show which has topped my list so far. I think he would be the front runner of the Chortle Prize nominees
If any of you have link to a funny story please post -

Thanks for responding Engineer Beckett - have a look at SOS Blog where I ruminated on the potential for a Comedy Channel.
I'd appreciate your feedback on this...

well, it's a good idea. for improv even better, however i'm not sure the comedy radio would be active enough for eve. I would go with a youtube channel. But I support your Idea.

I agree with you that an Eve channel or Eve Radio is probably inappropriate as they are too limiting in various ways. I think I was running through the mechanics of the idea and what the drawbacks would be and none of it seemed very appealing.
I'm not sure that improv was the main area I was thinking - more of comedy plays or something that was scripted. Like the Goon show radio presentations of years ago - Spaced out Goons? - or have we got some of those already?
Certainly a YouTube clip would be ideal for a regular comedy scripted slot and perhaps an Eve channel for unscripted, day to day, general humour. If you decide to proceed with a YouTube presentation I would be pleased if you would keep me posted.
