I enjoy the game because it allows me to escape the reality of life every once in a while. So it troubles me when I encounter IRL politics in the game and the unkindness that sometimes accompanies it.
If it is going happen in the Out of Pod experience, so be it. I'll just avoid the section. I just hope it doesn't bleed into the forums dedicated to gameplay and all other things EVE.
And I guess if it happens in-game in the Rookie Help and local channels, I may have to discontinue my subscription. Which would be a shame. I've been playing WoW since vanilla, but recently switched to EVE. Just hope I can stay.

Before threatening to GBTW, perhaps you might be interested to read the forum rules about posting about real-world politics and note that the ISDs will lock threads talking about RL politics. Or you could just GBTW, your choice...

I know they will lock. I'm just trying to make an overall plea to the ISDs to maybe be a little more vigilant the next few days. And may need to make an overall announcement so the policy is clear.
OR, they are QUITE aware and capable of the challenge and don't need any advice or prodding from me. Or maybe doing anything other than locking will bring too much attention to the issue.
Pardon if I'm being to insensitive. I haven't played very long and may not be used to the EVE culture yet. |

Nobody is used to the EVE culture, its evolving. You can post about in game politics.

They've never allowed RL politics in here and have been nuking threads (rightly so) about such things for years. Fair play, as you said eve is a lot of peoples' escape from such a world. |

First, This isn't WoW. this is EVE. I would refer you to this post CCP Falcon wrote about the nature of eve:
CCP Falcon wrote:Eve is not a game for the faint hearted. It's a game that will chew you up and spit you out in the blink of an eye if you even think about letting your guard down or becoming complacent.
While every other MMO starts off with an intro that tells you you're going to be the savior of the realm, holds your hand, protects you, nurtures your development and ultimately guides you to your destiny as a hero along with several other million players who've had the exact same experience, EVE assaults you from the second you begin to play after you create a character, spitting you out into a universe that under the surface, is so complex that it's enough to make your head explode.
The entire design is based around being harsh, vicious, relentless, hostile and cold. It's about action and reaction, and the story that unfolds as you experience these two things.
True, we're working hard to lower the bar of entry so that more players can enjoy EVE and can get into the game. Our NPE (New Player Experience) is challenging, and we're trying to improve it to better prepare rookies for what lies out there, but when you start to play eve, you'll always start out as the little fish in the big pond.
The only way to grow is to voraciously consume what's around you, and its your choice whether that happens to be New Eden's abundant natural resources, or the other people who're also fighting their way to the top.
EVE is a playing experience like no other, where every action or reaction resonates through a single universe and is felt by players from all corners of the word. There are no shards here, no mirror universes, no instances and very few rules. If you stumble across something valuable, then chances are someone else already knows where you are, or is working their way toward you and you better be prepared to fight for what you've discovered.
EVE will test you from the outset, from the very second you undock and glimpse the stars, and will take pleasure from sorting those who can survive from those who'd rather curl up and perish.
EVE will let you fight until you collapse, then let you struggle to your feet, exhausted from the effort. Then when you can see the light at the end of the tunnel it'll kick you flat on your ass in the mud again and ask you why you deserve to be standing. It'll test you against every other individual playing at some point or another, and it'll ask for answers.
Give it an answer and maybe it'll let you up again, long enough to gather your thoughts. After a few more steps you're on the ground again and it's asking more questions.
EVE is designed to be harsh, it's designed to be challenging, and it's designed to be so deep and complex that it should fascinate and terrify you at the same time.
Corporation, Alliances and coalitions of tens of thousands have risen and fallen on these basic principles, and every one of those thousands of people has their own unique story to tell about how it affected them and what they experienced.
That's the beauty of EVE. Action and reaction. Emergence.
Welcome to the most frightening virtual playground you'll ever experience.
Second, If you take a look around the forums we lock ALL POLITICAL threads no matter what politics it evolves. Same holds true for Rookie Help. That being said, in game channels such as System Local and player created channels do not fall under ISD preview.
If you have an issue with the way the forums are moderated, please feel free to file a support ticket and Internal Affairs will take a look.

I see a lot of political stuff in Intergalactic Summit. As long as you post in character and in setting you are safe.

CCP directly moderates Intergalactic Summit. But if you see someone commenting on real world politics there report it and CCP will handle it.

Why shouldn't we be able to discuss these topics at times? Are we all faint hearthed, can we not take serious topics in OOPE? This is still Eve Online we're playing right?

We used to have grr goons for our in-game political bickering. Now we have pro-Code vs. anti-Code. Both are a lot like RL political opinions stuff. Both sides repeat the same arguments over and over. The opposing side already has its mind made up and will never be convinced. Eve is real.
Start the bubble machine!
