I am a curator of one of the largest EVE online fan sites.
Running by forum estimates we hover around 20 thousand active members.
We have a registered population of 46 thousand members.
Our website is dedicated to EVE online discussion.
We have many Alliance leaders and CSM members who visit our site to discuss their agendas and news.
Our team have worked to welcome ever larger numbers of players from various alliances and corporations, as well as to promote discussion and news from many different sides.
We have many posters who are no longer subscribed to EVE online and yet still continue to visit our site.
And yet anyone who mentions the name of the site is censored automatically by this forum.
If CCP Hilmar is honestly dedicated to repairing the grievous damage to CCP's reputation, if he is open to new strategies to reignite interest in the game, it is time for EVE to no longer censor the name of one of the largest fan communities in EVE online.
I therefore propose that the CSM and CCP make an effort to restore the largest fansite of EVE online to its rightful place as an acceptable word and topic on any official CCP website.
If CCP cannot allow this to occur, I propose that they make clear the reasons for their continued ban to the CSM who should provide guidance and advice on their decision.
You do not have to promote or respect the site, but you should respect the people who visit it as part of their integral EVE experience. |

I am not a representative of FHC. FHC has 1200 active members and 3800 total members.
However if they are censored I would hope their situation is reviewed as well. |

Two step wrote:I actually requested this when the new forums went up. The answer I got was that CCP was afraid that kugu.com would be hosting some sort of browser exploits to hack into people's computers. Seriously. I think it is stupid and petty of CCP, but I will ask again.
Thanks for your effort, I appreciate it.

CCP Sreegs wrote:The website is filtered as is any other website which promotes EULA violating activities or engages in the distribution of malware once we become aware of it. It will remain so.
Then I expect you will list and describe those violations.
Since you have chosen to describe our site as one which "promotes EULA violating activities" or "engages in the distribution of malware" you can explain how we have done so and how you came by that information.
If you wish to treat our site as a dangerous one, you can remedy this by warning the large number of EVE players who visit our site.
You can also warn the CSM members who visit our site that they are, as you describe it, in some form of danger.
Because making spurious comments about our site and the safety of those who visit it is unacceptable.
Making these comments and then failing to act on your information, or allowing us to defend ourselves and challenge your claims are also unacceptable.
You are either failing to properly protect your subscribers or you are maintaining a vendetta against our site. |
