Don't know if linking is alowed here, so here is C/P of review:
Not for kids! Very inappropriate player content and online interaction!, March 10, 2009 By J. Gardner Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars Review for parents: Not for kids! Very inappropriate player content and online interaction! CCP are jerks for releasing this as 12+ ESRB. Not for kids!
Game creator is CCP, Iceland.
I agree that CCP created Game Content is ESRB Teen, However... This game and CCP intentionally exploits a major loophole in the ESRB called Player Content. ESRB does not rate player content. Write the ESRB today to complain their policies. Player Content is ESRB Mature+ CCP communicates and promotes a sexual, perverted, profane and drunken adult social community in this game. Bars and Night clubs are coming out within a year. View their fanfest 2008 dominination video on youtube to real people getting their heads blown off.
You have read what the game is about. Here is what kind of Player content your child will be exposed to. The average age in game is high, about 28. A group called SomethingAwful (search internet, CEO is in jail) largely controls the game at the moment and will have access to your child. They run the largest in game entity called GoonSwarm, (youtube, somethingawful forums). This sick organizations members and CCP are extremely perverted and have inundated the game with inappropriate player content. Their members have a majority of the Game Manager positions working for CCP in Iceland and ignore all parental complaints.
Your child will be exposed to: Inappropriate chat discussions Inappropriate voice discussions (both the games integrated voice chat, teamspeak, and ventrilo) Links to **** sites in chat Sexual stories from other players
Inappropriate Jokes to include: Racism, Sex, Politics, Drugs. Your child will "hear" people doing drugs. Your child will "hear" people drunk. CCP the maker of eve will broadcast fanfest events through the ingame voice system. Your child will hear inappropriate things during their presentations. While flying through space systems your child will see and be overwhelmed with content named with inappropriate names. I once saw someone had their ships out and they were all named a modified version of *****.
You will not be able to protect your child: There is "No" in-game method or mechanism to shield your child from this player content. There are "No" chat filters The same person that posts links to **** will be talking to your child
I am a long time player of MMO's and of all the games I have played this game is the worst for nasty player content and interaction with a shocking lowest ESRB rating. In comparison to other companies CCP does absolutely nothing to counter this type of behavior. Not even a chat filter. Don't buy this for your kids unless they are 18.
Just for a simple comparison for parents if I had to choose the lesser of two evils between Grand Theft Auto and Eve Online I would have to go with Grand Theft Auto.

I hope every parent reads this.
Why? Not because i'm pro censorship and think that children should be exposed to nothing until they are 18... just because if it keeps one more 13 year old out of local than it is worth it.
You know what they say, any PR is good PR. I wonder how many people will read this and think "damn, now this sounds like a great way to spend my free time" ?

So... EVE is just like every other MMO out there?
They only difference between eve's 'player content' (what players say) and other MMO's is the lack of Chuck Norris jokes.

yelworC eh?, I preferred the earlier Dominik van Reich stuff to Peter Devin, still, he did the 'band' well and actually created some good ambient stuff.
I'm surprised eve is rated 12 tbh, I know people on the forums may seem as they are full of immature kids but eve should at least be a 16 imho.

What is it with 'hear people doing drugs'? Someone write that in EVE you actually can do drugs and that you will get blown up and fined for it if caught in Empire. What a weak review.
Little kiddies can always avoid the hearing about drugs and go play WoW, where one has to be on crack to put up with the useless immaturity that goes on there.
Also someone link that review on SA, the guy will get trolled so hard he will wish he had never discovered that the internet actually existed.

It seems he really has :). My bet is that he was at some point scammed by somebody from that SomethingAwful group and is now on retribution path :)

Eve doesn't have bars and taverns yet. WoW has barkeeps in nearly every inn, they have quests to find the alcohol (Redridge barkeep, 999 yr old port(stolen from the Everquest 99yr old port quest)). That's even before you get to drunkenfest.
I'm with the other poster. This person got told they could join Goons for a small recruiting fee:D
Of course, I wouldn't put it past an SA person writing the review either
English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleys, coshes 'em, and rummages in their pockets for loose bits of grammar. |

I smell a rat. This is a ploy to try and attract the right kind of people to eve. Think about it: Sex, Drugs, Alcohol all mentioned frequently in the review... ---

Why are hear and no in quotation marks? That whole review, that's what I took from it Saying that, it's a good review for dissuading parents from buying it for their kids...what the author was aiming for presumably. -------------

'tis true, I remember the synchronised bong hits of one of my old corps on TS, when activating an L4 or 5/10 acceleration gate. I did not partake, but it was a fun crowd. Great days. Memories...

Bless that person for his review.
That means 10 less kiddies will be getting it for their birthday, and instead two college kids may be interested in it instead.
The correct kind of crowd, to be honest.

I consider it a grave insult to have this game compared to GTA. Amazon will be hearing from me, I assure you this!*
