Hear me out. I dont dislike the Russians and I know some Russians type in English and people of some other nationalities use Cyrillic. And I have no reason to think Russians cheat or RMT more than anyone else.
But Russians do tend to work together - largely because of the language barrier.
Should the rest of us acknowledge this rather obvious division, accept it, and begin to treat them as a common enemy? Not that they are bad people or anything , its just that the nature of the language division leaves most of us at a disadvantage if try to apply the modern liberal concepts of diversity and acceptance in a cutthroat galaxy based on domination.

I see no harm in a blanket "Kill On Sight" policy towards them, whenever a target of opportunity presents itself.

Its a somewhat different issue, but this may be part of the problem unfortunately. I agree the idea of everyone fighting most everyone sounds ideal.

This is still shooting blind in the dark.
RMT and gold farming is the problem. Its a problem in English, it's a problem in Russian.
Alot of other games can afford to come down on it with an iron boot. They have 2 million and up subs. EVE would crash and burn with 2 mill active subs and CCP can't afford to lose 50K to a crack down. |

Might I suggest an historically proven and surefire way of segregating and marginalising them? Put a red triangle on the hull of their ships, so that all can see them approaching and act accordingly

You're playing some game (THA GAME!!) with some interesting pluri-cultural comunity, yes the rules state that everyone should adress in english in all public chanels but doesn't happen. So what?
If you can't stop your self from smaking, and often in some even bad english than some not english natives, you can also do somehting else. Should you be penalised because you don't speak academic english? Should you be penalised because you don't like the idea of learning other languages, why so? every one should speak english...
Silly thread.

The irony is that we (united states) are in bed financially with China. A country with policed internet. Demands their own EVE server to segregate any communication with the free world...yet has no issue hacking systems around the world. China is the problem, not Russia but it seems everyone is too stupid to see it. In the real world anyway.
Red Menace anyone?

What threat? Beause people like "US" (yes us all the other ones from rich countrys) are finaly understanding that any civilisation can at any moment become "intersting"??
Pretty sure most of the "US" would prefer apartheid slavery times etc... stupid thread once again.

Of course they should be the enemy! You cant communicate, negotiate, or beg for your life if you dont speak their language. They're going to try and blow me up, naturally I'm going to want to blow them up first.
Not saying its a bad thing. If we could easily ally with the Russians nulsec would be even more of a boring blobfest where everyone holds hands and farts rainbows all the time.

Yes monoglots should be shot on sight and podded for great justice.
on a serious though I see your point, and I agree that a reply in a language unknown to me makes me think "better safe then sorry".

Well if not speaking English was a good enough reason for Benjamin Franklin to disparage his fellow non-English speaking German Americans, then I'm all for ASCII over Cyrillic.
Quote:
"Why should the Palatine Boors be suffered to swarm into our Settlements, and by herding together establish their Language and Manners to the exclusion of ours? Why should Pennsylvania, founded by the English, become a Colony of Aliens, who will shortly be so numerous as to Germanize us instead of our Anglifying them, and will never adopt our Language or Customs, any more than they can acquire our Complexion?" (The papers of Benjamin Franklin. Ed. Leonard W. Labaree. New Haven: Yale Univ. Press, 1959. vol 4:234).
Let's show those Unicode foreign socialist liberals what the American Standard Code for Information Interchange is all about! Arrrrrr!

Yeah, because they don't have any pointy missiles or stealth either.

Die Russen kommen! (The Russians are comming!) (old German proverb)
Kidding aside, this is helping no one. Russian players are despising the RMT shops like anybody else trying to get ahead with normal in-game means. Unless of course they¦re the ones actually paying the rent with EVE.
German blocks, French blocks, Russians. Things like these are just part of the sandbox. Hopefully for the US players, you will not experience the time when YOU need to bot to pay for YOUR rent.

Yes with Chinese players on TQ the game will be more interesting. Main battle between Chinese and Russian players for the financial and political domination, and all other players like farm pets and whining addition Too bad China have strict laws (such as MMO anti-addiction law) which prevent TQ-Serenity merge.
