Beekeeper Bob Beekeepers Anonymous 248	Posted - 2012.09.14 02:46:00 - [1] - Quote I see that CNN picked up Sean's story, and Alex's comments. Good for Eve? Or bad? I would think we'll see a new player bump soon, with all this free publicity, but what will the mainstream think when they try the game out, and find out it's populated with the dregs of the universe? Lying, cheating, hating, infantile behavior, racism, scamming, killing new players as a sport... This is the EVE that many people see when they first join the game. Unfortunatly some of these very issues contributed to Sean's death in real life. Let's face it, the average person will be horrified at the extremes at which people will go to, to grief in this game....good legacy for Sean? My apoligies to Chribba and the other quality people in this game, but lets face it, you are spitting in a snowstorm.... Flame away, it will simply reinforce my opinion of most of you........

Internet Hunger Games, everyone loved Hunger Games and those of us that didn't used it to get laid.... they always put out (if you're good looking) if you take them to see a chick flick "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame. A hero drinks a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that if he does a split in midair, he can hit twice as many zombies per kick. Drunk hero wins again, wusses." ~Cracked.com
Praxis Ginimic Red Federation RvB - RED Federation 18	Posted - 2012.09.14 03:02:00 - [7] - Quote SmilingVagrant wrote: So basically we should see a big influx of people when Fox News picks it up? I laughed so f'n hard that my neighbors looked out the window to see what was happening. Thats good ****,right there man. On another note, however as depraved as most people are in this game I've actually been quite impresses by the sense of community in Eve. Just this morning in the rvb chat a total stranger volunteered to mail computer parts from Brooklyn to London so a fellow gamer could upgrade his rig. When the limey offered to pay for the shipping the yank refused to accept. This is just one small example of the comradery that I have witnessed in my shprt...I think 3 months in the game. This strong sense of community and willingness (among most) to take noobs under their wings is what has prompted me (and,not even that bog of a gamer) to stay in Eve. Its a harsh and unforgiving universe that we survive by banding together and lifting each other through the rank and vile of thievery and war. Tl;dr: Even though Eve is full of asshats the strong sense of community brings us closer than any other mmo and many rl communitiea.

Thanks for refreshing a memory. Remove local, structure mails and revamp the directional scanner!

I commend you for having the balls to mention something I'm sure many of us have recently thought about at one point or another. Because of a certain blog written by a certain person a man will now be remembered by the world not just for his diplomatic contributions to humanity, but also as a member of one of the most draconian MMOs ever created, who, as a member of one of the largest known troll communities on the internet, was crucial in shaping it to be that way. Nice one Alex, I really hope someone like you isn't around to blog about me when I die. "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must undergo the fatigues of supporting it." - Thomas Paine

Like it or not this game has a very negative reputation as being an mmo filled with generally nasty people, and someone who made great diplomatic contributions to humanity has now been linked to it in the international press as part of his final legacy.

Ever see Romney talk to other rich people or other CEOs? They are always smiling and having a good time. Then someone says they are poor or failed to do something, they look at him like he is a sociopath. Nice try yourself.
