At least the CCL (forum mods). The ISDs are fine in the rookie/help chats (though they give terrible advice and don't know the mechanics they're trying to explain). This is EVE. -á Everybody Versus Everybody. |

To be honest, the playerbase/forum warriors of this game need a good clip around the ear and told to grow the heck up, half these a-holes are likely in their 30-40's, about time they acted it tbqh.
ISD guys, as a man helping a much younger relative into EVE I've seen you guys in the rookie channel, always helpful, always trying to ease new people into this harsh game with friendly encouragement, I can do little else but applaud you for your dedication and enthusiasm for this game and its growing community.
Dont let the asshats get you down, one day, their parents will kick them out and then they'll find being on the streets at the tender age of 37 and being led down a dark alley by 'shirley the burly moustache atired ungentleman' isn't as fun as it sounds and crying 'DERP' will only confuse and enrage shirley into a 'no foreplay' frenzy.
The ISDs in Rookie and Help chats are great (I mean, it's great that they volunteer, and their hearts are in the right place, they're not actually that good at giving good advice that I've seen).
The CCL ISDs who moderate the forums are the problem. This is EVE. -á Everybody Versus Everybody. |

We aren't mad that they are moderating we are mad because its so arbitrary and their isn't a clear guide they are following.
Again we cant be sure they all just arent really good at writing applications. Doesnt mean they know **** about eve or the community.
Well, theres the thing, I'm almost 100% positive that both the ISD forum mods and the in game help guys are all bound to the same rules and codes of conduct. I always try to lean towards 'they did it because they wanted to help' since theres no monetry or physical reward involved, but I concour that I could be wrong about that for maybe a few that are just 'bad apples' and they hide it. To be honest, additional 'power' in a forum doesnt sound like power to me, sounds like unpaid work. This sort of situation is a complicated one, but hopefully someone in the know will be able to put the whole thing straight.
One has power over the Forums and only has a mandate to moderate. One has power over the Rookie/Help channels and a mandate to help.
Give a man a Hammer, yadda yadda yadda. This is EVE. -á Everybody Versus Everybody. |

If they hadn't been locking/editing our content-filled posts, we wouldn't have started this. Most of the threads that got locked were random garbage at best, the others degenerated into random garbage after a few replies which was a shame as some actually had some interesting posts in. If there was any valid 'content' in there though its headed the same way as the 'outrage over goons exploit' threads, probably 4 pages back by now.
Yep. That's been intentional.
But was the newbie asking for help with the Character creator worthy of getting his thread locked before he got his question answered? That's what threw gasoline on all of this. This is EVE. -á Everybody Versus Everybody. |

Which newbie are you referring to?
The guy who couldn't find the Shirt tuck-in button. I'd link the thread (or the 2 rezzed threads that it took to answer his question), but linking locked threads is against the rules (and, more importantly, I'm lazy). This is EVE. -á Everybody Versus Everybody. |

I know precisely which one you are talking about, I dismissed it at first because the poster is in fact not a newbie.
So ISDs should assume that older players asking simple questions are trolling and should have their threads locked?  This is EVE. -á Everybody Versus Everybody. |

I did nothing of the sort. I just said that the Experiment and story behind it are hilarious (but for the torture).
The fact that the lessons it can teach us about suddenly giving people power over their peers are pretty apt for the ISD debacle was beside the point of my post. This is EVE. -á Everybody Versus Everybody. |

Did this really start because of a thread about shirt tucking options?
That's what sparked the big fire. ISD Stensson locked a thread as Spam just because it happened to be posted while there was some dissent over the role of volunteer moderators on the EvE-O forums.

Man ive HAD toenails removed surgically without anesthesia. Torture aint funny (mind you that was a DOCTOR so I even knew it was gonna end at some point I still cant imagine what that would be like without that part)
I had a Doc at an Urgent care try to reset my smashed wrist with a Hematoma block that hadn't yet taken effect. This was after waiting for 4 hours (90+min of which were alone in an exam room. The perfect place for a trauma patient who's pale, diaphoretic, and complaining of 10/10 pain). Oh, and I had to teach the X-Ray techs how to reapply a splint because they thought they couldn't take an X-ray through a cardboard splint.
I had the Doc call me an ambulance to take me to a real doctor after I just barely stopped myself from slugging him. This is EVE. -á Everybody Versus Everybody. |
