Originally by: Jada Maroo There is a lot of willful ignorance for the sake of political correctness and fear of being called racist in this thread. Fact is, Chinese nationals ruin gameplay and economics on MMOs where ever they are allowed to play in large numbers. Their way of playing MMOs is not compatible with the way most of the rest of the world plays, and is the real reason they have their own server.
That's not racism - that is reality. To pretend it isn't, and to pretend we don't all know it, is mass self delusion.
True.
Although i am not a Chinese, but i am pretty sure that the Chinese government does not prohibit their people from connecting to foreign servers at all, so the government censorship is the LAST explanation for the existence of Chinese server.
Basically they abuse gameplay mechanisms, imagine a EVE world that 50% of the players are can flippers or ninja salvagers. Imagine getting private chat spams in mission hubs, "You doing Lv4s? can u fleet me up so i can share your isk and standings?", but only shows up when salvaging your wrecks, without asking you in advance.
Of course these behaviors are totally legal in game, but that can ruin other players' gaming experience.
When the Chinese players in other online games want to bypass the well-known censorship, they go to Taiwanese (a small democratic country right next to China) servers, because they speak almost the same language. I know Chinese players caused lots of unpleasants in games such as WOW's Taiwan server because of their behaviors.
In order to keep the gaming environment healthy, the Chines IP is banned by many popular online games in Asia. If the game company still wants the huge Chinese market, they just make a special Chinese server for them.
If u can read Chinese, here are some reading materials for u to get more understandings on this issue.

All the articles are written in Chinese and by Chinese, discussing why Chinese players are not welcomed by online games around the world.
Yes, there is a Chinese version of EVE, but the internet censorship is the LAST explanation for its existence, since the Chinese government dosent prohibit their people from playing on foreign severs (such as TQ) AT ALL.

It's now 'kou ke ke le' (if i remember correctly) which means 'it's delicious, you'll smile'

Coca-Cola = 可口可樂 = 可口可乐 = "ke kou ke le" not "kou ke ke le" Your translation is a little bit weird, but i cant say its wrong :P
