CCP FoxFour wrote:This is what I said I would do to the people signing the DUST version of this petition... they laughed and kept signing. :'( Either the follow-on signers *want* their names changed, or they believe your threat to be empty. Given the rather large number of follow-on signers, and the certainty that some percentage of players actually wish to retain their existing names, then the first hypothesis is disproved and one must conclude that the second hypothesis ("they believe your threat to be empty") is the truth.
I confess, I find the possibility remote that you would be allowed (or even able) to change so many player names. I cannot fault the follow-on posters for immediately mocking your apparent impotence; this is EVE, remember? I'm thankful that I'm not you, but if I were, then I should be considering other options.
1. The "Mary Poppins" gambit. Be sweet. Ask them once to stop; afterwards simply ignore the thread hoping it will peter out. Pros: Low effort. Residual reputation leaves you looking like an amiable fellow. Cons: May be emotionally unsatisfying. Residual reputation leaves you looking weak.
2. The "Soviet Editor" gambit. Lock the threads. Erase particularly irksome posts. Nuke faux Twitter accounts, etc. Pros: Nearly immediate cessation of activities. Residual reputation leaves you looking like a "no nonsense" kind of guy. Cons: Locking the threads before participants feel the subject has run its course can lead to duplicate thread creation. May require escalation to forum bans, which lead to further escalations (see: "Shooting the monument").
3. The "Conan the Barbarian" gambit. Crush your enemies, hear the lamentations of their women. While you may not be able to execute the original thread (mass renames), that doesn't mean you can't exact any revenge. You have a ready-made "enemies list" (self-signed, no less). It simply remains for you to develop and execute your revenge(s). Pros: Emotionally gratifying. Residual reputation leaves you looking like "Leroy Brown" ("... the baddest man in the whole damn town"). Cons: High effort. May require patience.
Would you like to borrow my copy of Getting Even?

I am a capsuleer, an immortal of near-infinite wealth and capability. The heads of the Empires and Factions regard me with apprehension and disquiet, yet you dare to ask for my allegiance? Perhaps your name should be "BallsFour"...

how much are you paying? One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia |

We believe that the time has come for this change to be made as an acknowledgement of the community's preference for this new name, which has been expressed by the community by the near-total dismissal of his previous name and adoption of the (much better) new, community-chosen title. (Shamelessly stolen from it's counterpart thread over on the Dust forums, found HERE)
I take it in return you will allow him to choose a new name for you, one he thinks might be appropriate. |

This is going places, but what is the next step? I propose a live event! An epic brawl between pilots and bunnies, fighting over foxfour/sockfours name and honor. It will be an epic battle the likes of which even Caldari prime has not seen... |

I hereby pledge my allegiance to the great and powerful SocksFour.
As an aside, I have no idea where this came from although I did see the image of the badge and thought that was pretty awesome.

In both forums. (Cat Merc) I'm special :D Lolwut: "Yes, you kids don't know how lucky you have it. These days noobs get given free tackle ships for PvP but back in the old days the only tackle ships we were given were our pods.
