Originally by: SencneS The whole morals in games equals morals in real life is stupidity personified...
People that play EVE as a Pirate, do not go out in real life and attack and kill people willy nilly.. They don't stand in dark allies with weapons and hold people ransom, and then kill them if they do or don't get their demands. It's morally wrong to kill someone in real life, yet billions of online avatars die every single day at the hands of people who have never committed a felony in any sovereign state anywhere in the world.
To say if someone steals something in a game, they are more apt to perform the same actions in real life is probably a sad sign of lack of intelligence or more the point lack of logical reasoning then anything else.
The mentality of people who will always look for the 5 or 7 on 1 gank of a lone player trying to fly missions does say something.
There are PvPers who are in it for the challenging fight - the true competition where skill and decisions strongly affect the outcome.
There are also PvPers who are in it for the ability to mob a helpless target with no consequences.
You automatically assume that it is morals in real life that prevents behavior similar to what some are responsible for in EVE. I would say that in some cases the reason they do not act in a similar manner in real life is that there would be actual consequences, and actual direct physical confrontation with very immediate consequences.
Does in-game behavior reflect directly on real-life character? Not always, but sometimes it does, to a very small all the way up to a very large extent.
I've been jumped by 5 guys, had my ship blown up, and forced to pay everything I had to avoid being podded. No complaints there, part of the game. I've had 1 of those 5 guys send me my ISK back and ask me to 'promise not to tell anyone they did it', to preserve their reputation as a heartless bastard. That right there speaks to real life character to a certain extent.
My .02 ISK.

This game attracts a certain kind of playerbase that in other games (and RL) would be seen in very negative light: besides "regular players", here we have a brilliant selection of those who are out to scam, rob etc. and those others who love to highlight and even support a pseudo all encompassing negativism, where the victim is obviously stupid (not just inexperienced), has not to be teached but suppressed, the scammer "outsmarted" all (not robbed) and should be applauded.

It's like so called MD Elites just bend right over and inviting to be screwed over. But if they get something back well that's just extra ISK to add to the stack.
A case of more money than sense perhaps? Success breeding complacency? Arrogance/lazy. Well whatever it is, I think the obvious lack of any real spirited kind of reaction shows something in itself
I don't think it's MD elites being busy at their fail-job, hopefully they seem a race in slow extinction and only able to blah blah any more.
It's a community where loud sociopaths preach the opportunity of killing the weak and the kind, the upstanding guy HAS to be a scammer (no other explanation possible), everyone has a price, new players should pass an ordaly (there's a corp whose members do all of this and the above).

Auditing cannot be performed on those who always refused to be audited / made it impossible or even refused to justify their "privately owned corporation" decisions.
Go back and read the records, THEN maybe you'll be able to post some informed material.

Vaerah, you are really posting some cruft here. BB wormed his way into MD and ground out rep, he then took the ISK of people who trusted him.
This is not clever. I find it astonishing that posters do not attack his behavior more.

lol
Looks like I've missed quite a party here, however... I'm not sure why everyone is praising Bad Bobby, on my intelligence scale he never scored higher than Ricdic or Shadarle. Despite what he makes it sound, scamming only became a distinct option at some point after he got bored and his alliance collapsed. An interesting thing to note is that in the case of these not so bright individuals, the resilience of their offerings is only matched by the damage they cause in the end.
What happens if Jerry gets bored?
Leaving the Sphere movie aside, I must say that scamming is best served early on, close and personal. Anything else sounds ******ed.

In theory, maybe. I wish I was. Life would be easier. I try simplifying things because a life of shades affects my perennial search for a sense in life, admitting there's one.
May I interest you in some oriental philosophy, Vaerah? Zen in particular. Most of the people reading Zen adopt it as an existential philosophy, a way of life, very few manage to forget it. Few, indeed.

I'm sorry, was that the only thing you found to not be accurate in my reply?

I missed on this. I wanted to invest, but something prevented me, and for that I am happy.
I am sorry for all who lost theirs ISK, but this thread is nice example that some of EvE mechanic really need to be updated, for example implementation of golden share, ability to veto some votes for example.
