Akita T Caldari Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2010.03.13 05:56:00 - [2] Yes, the "EVE China" cluster is not owned by CCP, the ones that operate it only "lease" the IP and CCP does "consulting" for them... and they're a bit "behind" the rest of the world expansion content-wise. _ Beginner's ISK making guide \| Manufacturer's helper \| All about reacting _

Shadowy Assistant	Posted - 2010.03.13 07:41:00 - [5] If I remember right, the current sov landscape on Serenity is something akin to one alliance owning all of the north and another owning all of the south, and they're napped. So not many fleet fights to complain about

Call me pedantic, but maybe I'd listen to more of what you had to say if I wasn't so infuriated by a clearly intelligent player misusing word form and grammar. The first set of quotes ("EVE China") was for emphasis+irony+something else (since the server cluster's name is "Serenity", and here I am actually quoting the actual name), since, seriously, it's not even worth calling it EVE at all (first and foremost due to abysmal adoption rates, but other reasons too). The second and third set of quotes ("lease" and "consulting") was for uncertainty+sarcasm, since it's (most likely but not certainly) basically a copypaste job where CCP employees actually do most of the actual job (except localization and GMing) with the rulesets the guys there deem necessary on top of the actual game people were playing a good while ago on "Tranquility" (again, quoting the name, could have gone without the quotes, but why bother). I could have said "franchise", and still the quotes would be appropriate for irony, since in a franchise it's usually the guys giving it out that set the rules on the details, not the other way around. Eh, whatever. The fourth set of quotes ("behind") was for emphasis on the set-up for half-dirty joke (which by the way, got a bite almost immediately) on top of the uncertainty about what exactly is it they are (time-wise) behind the rest of the world as opposed to behind (supporting/accepting) changes CCP made to the game on TQ already, and also indicative of the place where I got the last paragraph's justification from. _ Beginner's ISK making guide \| Manufacturer's helper \| All about reacting _

So not many fleet fights to complain about Not at all true. Most of the south is napped with the west, but the north and east are both everyman-land. The population is just much, much smaller than TQ - so finding fights is akin to eve circa 2004-2005. ----------------

Anyways, would be interesting to play on Serenity, just for giggles. It's not hard to setup a trial account for there - the only tricky bit is finding a Citizen's Identification Card Number to use. And the download takes ages from any of the countries in the west. By advised, though - system names, market, et cetera et al are not in English, and typing their names in English won't be recognized by the autopilot. Originally by: Per Bastet Could you Imagine what would happen if a Large Group of Tranquility Players went over to the Eve China Server and started Setting up shop? Not much. A fair number of them already play/used to play here. Chribba got a fair bit of attention when he made a trial over there, mostly due to his e-star status here, but they're not ignorant of TQ/it's ways. ----------------

Akita T Caldari Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2010.03.13 13:45:00 - [14] Edited by: Akita T on 13/03/2010 13:54:04 Call it sarcastic, call it derogatory, call it showing disdain and/or simple lack of approval for the measures which were necessary in order to operate in China, call it whatever might please you. Thing is, I put them there for a reason, even if that reason is not obvious to you. You can't properly express in a forum post the range of face-to-face talks information exchanges if you follow "proper" literary procedure you would use when writing an article or a book or whatever. You are forced to use various unusual and/or unorthodox ways to convey some of the most important non-verbal cues in writing, even if it offends people like you or your high-school English teacher. It doesn't always work as you'd expect it to work, at least not for all readers. P.S. For instance, I chose to use quotes for the word "proper" to draw attention to it. If this was a face-to-face talk, I would probably have made a bored and/or annoyed face when speaking out that word, and/or I could have changed the tone of voice while speaking that word alone. I might have even used "air quotes" when saying it, for additional dramatic effect. It expresses an annoyance at the fact some things are considered that way even when they impede communication lines, while at the same time preserving the idea that something I would really call "proper" (this time it's an actual quote of what I would say) is a good thing in my mind, as opposed to probably believing I hate everything that is considered proper.

It's not "I can garantee you 100% that nobody cares what you do. Ever." It should have been "I do not agree with your viewpoints and you annoy the hell out of me."

Nope, I was just sarcastically pointing out the borderline hypocrisy of your previous post's spelling mistake, but the lack of non-verbal cues turned into what looked like a hypocritical statement instead. Hence, back to my original point that conventional written communication means are no longer all that relevant in the "information age" when chatting up on a forum. Quote: and this...

Akita T does not care if you are annoyed by Akita T. Akita T actually enjoys if you are annoyed by Akita T. And also, Akita T occasionally enjoys talking about herself in the third person and using wrong gender pronouns, just so she can sound like a completely crazy person. If you do not like to be annoyed by Akita T, use a forum filter, ignore her posts or use the conveniently located "cancel account" link and don't come back. _ Beginner's ISK making guide \| Manufacturer's helper \| All about reacting _

Kyra Felann Gallente	Posted - 2010.03.13 18:29:00 - [31] Originally by: Akita T So, yeah, I INTENTIONALLY disregard quite a few of the "established//proper" writing rules, in order to make my writing look a bit more like how I would actually speak those lines, trying to represent some of the many non-verbal cues that would be present in a face-to-face chat. Except forums are a written communication channel, and should be treated as such, not as a transcription for spoken language. It could be argued that real-time text chat is more akin to spoken communication in text form, but I see forum posts as informal electronic letters that happen to be public. There is always bold and italics for emphasis, so I see no reason to quote things or make things in all caps unless it's correct to do so. It bugs me and makes things more unpleasant to read. I do usually find your posts interesting reading, though, because for the most part, they're written in an intelligent, literate manner.

Where it is difficult enough to get people to spell in a half-coherent way. Where 'grammar' usually is considered a rather nice idea that had a place at one time but now just gets in the way of things and should probably be sent off to some far away place where it won't annoy everyone so much (sort of like the elderly). This thread turned into a debate on the correct use of emphasis in typed form? Originally by: GM Horse I've sadly misplaced my magic "find farmers in ravens" button.

We have a fanboi! Chribba's worshippers are better by far. Consider conversion since the Master of Veldspar's forum posts tend not to include "CCP should do blah, blah, blah or else!" Getting somewhat on topic though - Am I to understand that CCP licenses their technologies to another company who the operates an independent cluster? I was under the impression that China's cluster was, in fact, a CCP operated system.

The way he encourages his fanboys to celebrate him in his favourite issues platform doesn't change the fact that his postings basically belong deleted for being entirely offtopic. At least in every topic that isn't called "Akita T's issues".

CCP helps with the technicalities of running the servers, But the Chinese-based company takes care of customer management/support. Said Chinese company makes sure it follows all of China's laws regarding MMOs. These laws require personal identification to register, limits on playtime between all MMOs combined, and content filtering so ideas such as revolt are not impressed on the Chinese people.

Thanks for the details. I was aware that China had some heavy handed laws controlling internet usage and gaming, but CCP's limited role in the Chinese cluster is, I guess, surprising.

It's very heavy handed. WOW was closed down for several months when Blizzard tried to switch the operator there. Also all expansions have to go through an approval process so they sometimes don't get applied for a very long time or need heavy editing (such as not allowing undead or skeletons). That's why many Chinese players use proxies to play elsewhere, such as Korea. So I suspect with CCP it's a licence with an advisory role only.
