It wouldn't be a fight with Eve players. It will be a slap fest with a lot of screaming and yelling since we Eve players are mostly Geeks and Dweebs and Nerds. *removed inappropriate signature* - CCP Eterne |

I have never been to a fan fest; but if I happened to attend, being in a non-player (controlled) corporation, then I would most likely be ignored by the masses and thus drink alone...
...so I save a chunk of money, stay home, and drink with others that do not care about my silly online game. |

It is worth noting that Guard is stood on a 3ft high stepladder for this photo.

The most toxic relations in the game tend to be the ones in nullsec, but if you slap a bunch of nullsec pilots in the same room together they start telling stories and drinking beers together.
Also most Eve players are adults. If you haven't worked out the urge to punch everyone you disagree with by the time you hit your mid 20's odds are you aren't playing from your jail cell anyways. |

Because those who can attend have money. Those who would spend it have disposable income. Those with that much income to buy a plane ticket; deal with airport security; deal with the long flight; deal with a different culture in Timbuktu...all tend to be older worldly people.
Even in WoW at Blizzcon those that tend to attend their conventions are older.

LOL. Close enough I guess. But I had always wondered how EVE players are face to face. I happen to be rather casual player my self, but that's more to do with I can't stand most FCs who like to yell and scream over comms. I had one that was yelled so I simply said "bet you wouldn't yell at anyone like that face to face" His response was "I would punch you in the throat" I about fell out of my chair from laughing so damn hard. But these are the things I ment wasn't talking about the guy who got scammed or who got their ship blown up.
I have run into many people who make empty threats in EVE. I never report them cus I do not see the point and besides my house is pretty well armed. But I would personally have a hard time if I came face to face with someone at a fangest who told me he would punch me in the throat, it would be really hard not to test him out. This is not something that is EVE only but I think I have seen more of it in EVE then most other MMOs on the market currently.

Do you really want CCP Guard to beat you up? Lolwut: "Yes, you kids don't know how lucky you have it.

I feel like an oddball. I am not afraid of physical confrontation, in fact I am actually pretty good at it. But its extremely hard to anger me. And I mean VERY hard.

Then CCP gave him a job. The guy who was sitting next to me in the first nullsec round table who had obviously not had a shower since before boarding his flight to Iceland, you really stank. You know who you are. |

The internet told me it's actually 10.75 inches, so not a [foot]ball. HandEgg. The guy who was sitting next to me in the first nullsec round table who had obviously not had a shower since before boarding his flight to Iceland, you really stank. You know who you are. |

Forwarding some compliments to our Fanfest guests
CCP Guard wrote:I also spoke with some of the bouncers at one of the bars filled to the brims with Fanfest guests the whole week. They came to me specifically to tell me that they were so happy with the clientele. They're not used to having the bar full of drunk people without things breaking, fights breaking out and some amount of troublemaking at least. They already looked forward to having you guys back next year.
I'm proud of my tribe and wanted to thank you guys for giving Fanfest a great reputation! :) Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

Well there was this Russian guy in a club that got angry because I saved him from falling down the stairs. I guess he really wanted to fall down those stairs. He even told me to **** off when I offered to buy him a drink. Apart from that everything was relaxed. It's a lot better than a night out in Sydney where you're likely to get beaten to death or stabbed for no reason at all.

Those silly Russians. My guess is he was probably afk mining while he was falling down the stairs. Maybe James 315 looked at him or something from the top of the stairs.
