does general discussion mean? "only threads talking about avatars or praising the staff"? You're not allowed to blame goons for, uh I don't know :
Hulks being blown up Prices of Drakes increasing Crashing highend minerals (by their hardcore mining) Injecting isk Faction Warfare rewards "on explosion" being messed with Supercaps (blobbing) Subcaps (even more blobbing) Rifters (serious blobbing)

1) That would be an off-topic post in your Hero ISD's eyes, since there's a forum for RL stuff
2) It's fairly clear that you have no idea what limitations ISDs have nor how to effectively manage this type of forum community. This is EVE. -á Everybody Versus Everybody. |

I have a hero ISD? My hero ISD doesn't exists, because if they did, none of this would have happened in the first place.
Also, I let my frustrations show when I post, because this whole situation is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. So I go a little overboard with the :angryposting: to let off some steam and to try to show people just how dumb they are acting.
Actual proper moderation is something that should be relaxed and relatively easy to do.
Rule #1: Don't be a jerk when you mod.
Personally, I think the moderators need to give more info when they hand out infractions, and I've been trying to push from the outside in getting this to happen. Don't worry about posting with your main! -áPost with your brain! "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." |

Absolutely agreed with that rule.
Sorry if I misunderstood your position.
I do recognize that we're behaving badly at this point, but experience has shown that this kind of behavior is the only way to get CCP to listen to us.

Interesting. A thread that was actively talking about what happened earlier was locked for apparent lack of content, even though the person was simply wondering what was going on, and people - get this - told him. I know, astounding, considering it didn't have content. So as to avoid the lock on a constructive thread, and possible editing, all hail goons, emergent gameplay, ISD, and CCP. |

To be on topic, the correct title of this subforum is EVE General Discussion. So it is general stuff about EVE. Though to me, that would leave only the staff and forum to talk about, since everything else has a place. |

Not intended for discussing moderation.
Clearly some people are upset about a thread discussing tucking in one's shirt in the Character Creator. I can understand your frustrations and your angst and bewilderment of such a heavy handed reaction. It is unfortunate that it happened.
However, many of you are indeed respected posters and I enjoy reading your threads that are so often engaging and insightful. (RubyPorto, I am looking in your direction. You too Morganta.) I consider the thought of you guys being banned from these forums and that would be a real tragedy.
I would ask that you let this go and find a better way to resolve this - let it go and live to fight another day. You guys are better than this.
That is all. -á"Miners mine so I don't have to." ~Metal Icarus |

When you disagree with a rule, ask for an elaborate definition, in order to give you a way to defeat it. That's the spirit.
If this new policy keeps up, these forums might actually become useful, and people will have to exercise their emotions elsewhere.
