Of course this is theoretical. Because it would require Ripard actually setting foot in a men's locker room for something other than pilates or yoga. You know, something that doesn't require stretchy see-through pants. And this is exactly this kind of replies that doesn't push the world and community towards a better place. But hey it's easier being a douche than being nice to people... /c And this is why I like Chribba. Also why I agree with him.

Malcanis is right I think, although his way of arguing is very confontational and adversarial
CCP shouldn't just ban Erotica. MAYBE they should carefully assess how much they want that kind of behaviour associated with thier game (and it is associated, abviously, despite the offending behaviour occurring out of game). And then MAYBE they should change the rules to make identifying victims for this kind of behaviour ingame and then using ingame activities (scamming and contracting their stuff) as part of the tormenting behaviour against the rules.
This is just an idea - it would probably be very hard to draft properly into the TOS and it may be deemed too subjective. But rules can be changed. Those of us that come from common law jurisdictions know that the laws constantly change to reflect society's expectations and changing views on things - homosexuality was once against the law in the UK - now its not... it is currently legal to use certain tax loopholes involving the channel islands and trusts... the UK government is changing the law becuase they dont like it...
Its currently arguably within the rules but maybe it shouldnt be... |

Nevertheless, my point, if anyone bothered to read it, is that bad press leads to declining business leading to CCP losing money leading to Eve eventually going the way of so many other MMO's = no sandbox for Erotica1 and his ilk to indulge their "appetites" (oh and the rest of us losing out along the way too).
There was also a negative media reaction to the unfortunate incident between The Mittani and The Wis, but EVE is as strong as ever. EVE isn't dying. Lol I can't delete my forum sig. |

It is a very damning blog. I can only surmise that Jester has brought the subject up with CCP and was not happy with there response which thus led him to create this blog. (Many apologise if I am wrong) I would be very interested to hear what the community at large thinks and perhaps for Erotica and friends to refute the claims being made that they actually enjoy the pain and humiliation that they cause, especially to the man in the recording linked in Jesters Blog. Is it CCP's responsibility to police out of game interaction between their players where no law has been broken? If so, where does that responsibility end? Should they ban a player when his wife complains about him playing EVE instead of doing the chores? If I hook up with another EVE player who happens to be from say Japan, should CCP have the right and duty to ban me if the GM involved disapproves of inter-racial relationships? What about homosexual relationships? What if I encourage another player to log in to fleet and miss church on sunday? Where exactly does CCP's "responsibility" end? CCP might just want to stop gross behaviours associated with their game. They have no responsiblity to maybe, and certainly no legal obligation but maybe they should do something anyway in this instance. "Gays are gross. I demand people ban any player who admits to being gay. The community should cleaned of such filth" On what basis do CCP resist that demand? Once being merely distasteful is suffficient reason to ban someone, then pretty quickly the only people left are the ones who haven't done anything to even briefly offend anyone. "That guy killed my untanked Iteron full of compressed Crokite and A-type loot, AND HE ENJOYED IT! ban him!"
Your counter arguments are empty of content and pathetic at best.
Your point out Erotica broke no rules or laws, your quite correct. What he has done can be likened to bringing the game into disrepute by going above and beyond to push the boundaries of whats acceptable in the name of emergent gameplay. CCP should consider very carefully if this is the type of behavior they want associated with their game as it's treading very dangerous grounds. Ignoring all that, it's simply a case of morals, ( ironic in a game such as EVE i know ) yes its a game, yes he was a willing participant but that still doesnt excuse what's happened and has happened many times previous.
CCP should remove ALL his assets over ALL his accounts and give him a temp ban. Thats the right course of action in this case, but of course thats not what your interested in is it.

Of all the arguments made on this thread so far, this is by far the best in my opinion. Reasonable, thoughtful and with a view to the wider Eve community as well as the wider community as a whole. I really wish I'd thought of it first... |

These are potential risks you know. Should be careful how far you push people and what you allow.

Smooth enough.
I keep thinking that this is an example of the "Inverse Morality" principle. One guy (erotica) plays a harsh game within it's harsh rules, another guy (the victim) playing the same harsh game loses (and through his epic over-reaction generates a good deal of laughter) while revealing that he is the ACTUAL bad guy via threats of violence and racism.
The recording of this interaction gets posted to a blog and creates 'two sides'./ One side calls itself 'moral' while advocating mob rule and censorship. The other side is somehow immoral for advocating the principles of freedom of speech, adult responsibility and keeping a video game in context.
It's the people calling for Erotica1s head when that player didn't break any rules who are the real problem here, yet they are too busy pretending that they are the good folk to notice.

I'll ask again. How could CCP resist religious groups or the Russian government if they demanded that CCP remove people who engage in "unacceptable" behaviour that "bring the game into disrepute"?
After all, "it's simply a case of morals", right?
As soon as CCP have conceded the right of any group to demand the removal of a player simply because they dislike what he does out of game, then they're wide open to every pressure group out there who thinks they have a duty to make sure you and I live our lives as they think we should.

The funny thing is that it probably burns you to know that this doesn't happen. EVE players even gather in person (fanfest, EVE down under, EVE Vegas ect ect) and no one dies or even gets a paper cut.

Yea, don't treat people harshly in a video game that gives you guns. I'll bet you also play paintball but don't shoot at people because that would be mean right?

If you think its the 20bucks he's freaking over, and not how he is being treated, it might be you who hopefully sees a mental health professional. I've dealt with people like Erotica and friends my whole life, you laugh at them and walk away. Completely going apeshit like that is unnatural and extremely dangerous, yes the man needs help and hopefully gets some.
I have been on TS for 4-5 bonus rounds and several of the contestants have fetched guitars or other musical instruments to aid the singing portion and one guy (who sadly lost) said that the bonus round was the most exciting thing that had happened to him in EVE. I have also seen miners who have been ganked respond with huge bile and IRL threats. People get conned over joining null blocks /super sales etc all the time and i have no doubt a deranged few of those get equally unhinged. EvE is a game all about loss. It is a players own choice how much of his/her assets they wish to risk in any one endeavour but to go completely nuts over being scammed /ganked / held hostage / station camped /anything else that eve throughs at you is very disturbing. If you can't cope with the loss of space pixels then you need some sort of help or at the least to stop playing eve.
This debate is full of one side calling the other mentally ill and always has been but from the ganker /scammer /legit isk doubler side i suspect that many of them have a kind of car crash mentality. Witnessing something shocking (in this case the over the top reactions) and not being able to look away. I didn't listen to this recording for the same reason i stopped listening to the bonus rounds. They go on too long and i have better thing to do.
Eve is a better place with scammers , spies, thieves, awoxers, pirates, traitors etc. Without the value of well placed trust and the costs of misplaced trust eve would be a fairly poor game. Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85 |

I recall CCP found their morals pretty easily when Mittens stepped out of line at Fan fest. Did he break any laws? No. Did he break any in game rules? No.
Was what he did morally reprehensible on every level? Yes
This scenario with Erotica, while different in it's approach, boils down to the same basic elements and should be taken seriously by CCP. |
