My vain attempt at intelligent conversation on the forum.
So what is the deal with this? Every day I see at least 1 topic that is derailed by the second page by a reply consisting of "Whatever you said + Americans suck = Why EVE is dying blah blah blah cigarettes!"
Is this just the latest tactic being used by the same old forum trolls or have Europeans been that dumbed down by the BBC (or whatever else) that they actually believe all the "Blame ______ on the other side of this particular ocean."
According to our news you're all a bunch of degenerate pig lovers with gigantic foreheads wearing top hats and magic wands too busy to defend against Communism because of tea breaks. According to your news we're all a bunch of bible thumping Mormon used car and motivational book salesmen waving American flags.
In case you haven't noticed yet, this is an issue of FUD on a global scale. As a liberal American I am used to tuning out this kind of bull**** but it leaves me wondering if many Europeans are actually buying into it simply because it is such a new phenomenon.
My tip to all is to ignore whatever you hear. If you ignore accents, regional customs (which vary just as widely within the US as it does outside) and government structure we are basically all the same. The new strategy employed by the news is to identify a group as a cause for your problems who are sufficiently far away that you cannot confirm or deny their claims. Its a cheap and easy way to get ratings and an enthusiastic and militant viewing audience. Everyone loves a scapegoat when its not there to defend itself. Don't be a fool and buy into Big Brother.
Text doesn't carry an accent and I think you will notice that many online publications would be indistinguishable from their US/UK counterparts if you ignore some proper nouns. I have read many web comics which I thought were speaking about local political and social issues only to find out its in an English news publication. You struggle with the same issues that we do.
P.S. As depressing as it sounds, it would seem America has taken an English idea (Big Brother) and found a way to make it profitable enough for global use. Welcome to the age of popular paranoia.
P.P.S. I am noticing a much larger proportion of infomercials hosted by British salesmen on television. You're invading us as much as we are invading you. If you want to make enemies, change something. |

Edited by: Jaina Sunspot on 25/12/2010 18:50:00 People who judge peoples opinions by Country instead of Content or think that because that the Content is bad it represents the Country you are from are idiots and are probably from...
But seriously, they are xenophobic or racist uninformed idiots and you should ignore them.

@ op. Why does it matter?
For all intents and purposes this forum is anonymous so for all you know the ones spouting the anti-amiercan drivel is actually an american and the ones who act like tards and claim to be american are non-americans trolling everyone?
Which is really why its done. To troll and get people like you to make threads like this.

in a few words.. some troll blame americans for whatever moronic reason it does not make sense to almost anyone. ****ed american post back calling him stupid, clueless and spring some stupid yet useless patriotic statements (u communist ***, we saved ur arses from ****s, and bla bla bla)
So forum troll found a new way to **** off ppl in the forums, for the simple reason that it amuses them and american ppl will keep complainning doing OP like post to extent the new FOTM in forum trolling.
My tip just answer those with a ROFL fail troll, and you are done until they grew bored of it.
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with 'til you understand who's in ruttin' command here. |

I honestly didnt know EVE forums were so completely full of trolls.
About trolls.
The issue with trolls is they think that jumping into a thread and spamming "poopbuttfur***homoderp!" Is somehow pushing the OP out of their comfort zone thus making a successful troll. But all they're doing is making fools out of themselves, which is compounded the more they cross their arms and smirk in confidence.
But this is all I see.
Americans posting anti-american sentiment on the forum to the extent they are indistinguishable from actual European America-haters doesn't make you a troll. Its like spending a week making your house look like you murdered someone to the point that youre arrested and put on trial for murder just so you can say "lol i trole u" to the judge moments before you're convicted.
tl;dr: I will remember never to post here again. If you want to make enemies, change something. |

boring, tried, old troll tactic that is so widespread over the net that it isnt even worth paying attention to, IMO.
Eve is no different. --

Or this kind of bull****. This isnt trolling. Making responses to conversation that doesnt exist is not an epic troll. Youre making yourself look stupid. Pretending to be such a huge fail troll that you actually look like a fail troll does not equal a successful troll.
I remember when trolling meant something... If you want to make enemies, change something. |

Remember as a child with a group of other children playing your favorite game? Then someone comes along and starts winning pretty hard? Remember how you talked **** about him with your friends and naturally didn't like him? That is the ethos of every single other country outside of America that won't just accept they're inferior. Like Africa does.

I dunno, but I sure blame the Bush years for all my EvE related troubles. Some how I'd also like to draw a correlation of 0.0 politics to the likening of current conflicts.
Damn all this Drake deficit! We could afford badgers, and free skill training for everyone if it wasn't for our bloated war ops budget!

This thread attempts to take all that is belligerent and hate driven from all other threads, and vomits it out here on to this page.
We should copy and paste this thread on some other mmo's forums... As a christmas present. --------------------------------------- Completely ignore any whining that is not toilet orientated. |

Not that i am from any of those countries, nor do i really care, but you do quite realize that together the eropean union has easily more economical power than america does... since like ... ever (heaving more people and all). But i will never quite realize, how that is any feat that i accomplished, nor will i ever mindlessly say that my country is the best.
What i will never quite understand, beeing european, is how you can be so patriotic, the country itself, basically does nothing for you. The healthcare system is atrocious, there is no social security, and you have to basically see where you get your retirement funds from yourself, not to speak of the fearmongering that your media calls news, yet you totally love it, masochistic much? (granted, you pay only 6-9% tax, but in my book, its better to pay more for something, than less for nothing)
Tho yes, saying that someone sucks because he was born somewhere, or because of some different skincolour, is very stupid and bad. Its like slapping someone for not winning the lottery. Slapping someone because he does play the lottery, is perfectly fine in my book tho.
