Originally by: U Mad2 . What could CCP or the GCC (greater CAOD community) do about it?
IMO CAOD posting has moved away from the intelligent, satirical and amusing commentary on the political issues within Eve that people like me are famous for, and that made these forums legendary. Now you just have people like DDR (who aren't old enough to have got over the shock excitment that something called homosexuality exists) and Goons (who are so desperate to grab the limelight that they'll piggy back on events like 9/11 to get some airtime in the absence of any in-game success).

Windy I like you. You've chilled out a good deal and are pretty funny. This post shows a distressing amount of regression good sir. Calm down.

As stated before, there 'has' to be a forum for the chestbeating and flaming and trolling.. basically because deep down we all want to brag about how 'good' WE are or hammer in how bad/homosexual/mad YOU are (WE and YOU ofc applying to everybody).
The reason, or atleast how I take it, for this being CAOD and not for instance SHC would have to be that all the newbies read this. A newbie up in empire not in a 0.0 alliance or even regular grunts in big 0.0 alliances may even never have heard of or used SHC.
So flaming/trolling/chestbeating/propaganda is more fun here because there might actually be a few 'inexperienced' forum readers that read your dribble and take it seriously and reply in a serious manner, thus creating more opportunity for the F5 vultures to smite down upon that poor innocent soul.
Just my 5 cents anyway. __________________________________________________

CAOD has always been awful. It just took the current wave of posts to make it apparent.

Q: Why is CAOD so terrible? A: No simple way of answering this but a few reasons have been mentioned repeatedly.
Lack of moderation. Locking unwanted threads without deleting them is useless. It only encourages abuse.
Lack of permaban for offenders.
Unwillingness to do away with disruptive and abusive elements. The self-proclaimed "ruiners of EvE" spring to mind (you know who you are.)
While I think the above reasons play a part, the major contributors are somewhat obvious. Theres is the simple fact that a lot of people have to use this space. With something like 300K potential users, there are bound to be a few intellectually challenged among them.
My favorite reason for CAOD being what it is however is: "The youth these days!" There is an indifferent attitude. Typically among the early twentysomethings coming out of the post 9-11 world. Projecting a certain distaste of percieved weaknesses gives the individual credit among his emotionally stunted peers. This bevaviour is likely a variant of the typical male homo-erotic reference game. A game wherein the immature male demonstrates his masculinity by continually asserting his commitment to the traditional male-female relationship paradigme in the form of a negative reference to homo-sexuality. For example: "I do not like sausage, I prefer clam." This kind of outspoken, agressive defence is likely to be the only detectable symptoms of a deeply rooted self-hatred only visible in an environment where the subject can divulge his views without feer of retaliation (like an online community.)

How can CAOD be awful when it contains gems like this? There's far too much negativity in this thread. And I, for one, like sausage.

Why would CAOD be anything but a steaming pile of crap?
CAOD is the place where alliances will always spin events to 1) keep up their own members morale and 2) try to hurt their enemies morale. It's never going to be a place where "the truth" or accurate battle reports are regularly posted, and even if someone did it would be shouted down for being biased. I think people just kind of realized this instinctively and figured if it's going to be some dishonest political forum then why let it mascarade as something valuable? Just take a dump on it and let everyone see it for what it really is.

i seriously doubt that me getting angry (btw yes i am very angry) about some crap alliance has been a major factor in the decline of CAOD
