The statement of "Go back to WoW" is prejudicial. If anyone think WoW is easy, try to run a 25-man raid in heroic mode. The complexity of gameplay in WoW is no less than EVE. However, PVP in WoW is optional, yet PVP in EVE is nearly compulsory. Those seasoned PVP gamers in WoW will have little or no difficulty to do the same thing in internet space. On the contrary, those WoW gamers that chose not to contest in PVP will have a hard time beginnig their venture in EVE. |

I once tanked a BC raid (pre nerf Black Temple) while hung over so badly I was unable to stand under my own power. (ah, college)

No way this guy is a lawyer. I can't even imagine a lawyer in a non-English speaking country.
As far as the scam, I'm sorry but that is completely fing obvious. No one has that much money not to care. Lawyers don't make that much. A three year old is smart enough to know that when someone takes away your lollipop you don't hand over another one.
My bet is this is an RMT scammer or some other illegitimate way to get plex. His complete disregard for the real money for PLEX connection suggests he has no problems with losing his stuff - probably because it's not his to begin with. All the I'm going to get my killers stuff is hot air. He just wants to trick out a ship and go PVE? Come on. This isn't your run of the mill wow player that has extra cash that they will just throw away. Who throws away money like that unless it isn't theirs?

That strikes me as the defining sentence - in your example, the person was relinquished of control of the items not of his free will, whereas in this instance, the target freely relinquished control.

Winchester Steele wrote:In Canada we have a name for your kind. We call you liberals and you're not particularly well liked, specifically for this hug-a-thug mentality. Only a liberal could excuse an actual crime because he "didn't mean it", while vilifying people who committed no crimes and played 100% within the rules of the game. Whether or not you think that scamming is "moral" is completely irrelevant. Scamming is a legitimate, well-known, even celebrated form of gameplay in Eve Online. You'd have to be willfully stupid to not realize that coming into this game. RL life threats on the other hand are in clear violation of the EULA, are abhorred by the entire community and should not be tolerated under any circumstances. Dude should lose his account at the minimum for making RL threats, end of story. Also. The 1000.00 was lost the moment this moron bought however many PLEX from CCP. The gankers and the scammers took only in game assets, which is not even close to the same thing. None of the people involved in either the gank or the scam are in any way shape or form responsible for this guy's lack of financial restraint. Nor are they responsible for this guy's lack of research into a game that he's dumping THOUSANDS of dollars into. No sympathy at all. None.
Did I miss something, or you just like to pull crap from your behind?
He wasn't robbed, and obviously he didn't find his gankers in rl and did awesome thngs to them. He DID say he was talking from anger. If he actually did something, I would agree with you. But he didn't.
Good thing its a video game and not rl, or else we would all be totally serious about it. |

This is another one of those events that IMO proves something I've come to believe about this game and it's people.
Many folks will have you believe that the gankers and scammers are terrible people in real life and that the 'innocent victims" are somehow paragons of virtue.
But in reality, it's the "victims" (ie entitled/stupid people playing a game stupidly that is notorious for punishing both entitlement and stupidity) who tend to be the IRL 'bad' people who will make out of game threats.
Meanwhile, the gankers and scammers (ie smart/aware people playing a game that rewards being smart and aware) who are the IRL well adjusted adults who can keep a video game and it's imaginary 'property' in context. |

I'd agree with you in so Farr as to say , the ones who whine about it might well share some broad characteristics. But the precedent that victims=********, gank/scam artist = virtuous paragon of the community ,probably needs some looking into. I do see your point though. If in doubt...do...excessively. |

You should probably learn some reading comprehension. He was merely stating "I could if I wanted". He didn't actually say he was going to.
I'm pretty sure I'd be that mad too if I borked up royally like that and a news company trolled me in a conversation. Personally I think the guy had balls to entertain an interview in the face of humiliation. |

Kaarous Aldurald wrote:Silivar Karkun wrote:well the guy clearly was an idiot but he doesnt deserves to be scammed like that.........the killmail should have been enough........ Yeah, horseshit. NOTHING excuses irl threats. You wanna know why I post on an alt, and not on my first character? It's not because I fear reprisal in game for my speech on the forums. It's because I once got a picture of my house emailed to me after scamming someone. So that apologist crap doesn't fly with me. It's not "bullying" or whatever buzzword the entitlement generation whelps use these days. It's a ****ing videogame.
This.
Never ceases to amaze me how incredibly egocentric people can be in the name of "sympathy." F*&^ that. Give a monkey a brain and he'll think he's the center of the universe.
"Look at me, I'm such a good person because I feel sorry for that person." Who's needs are really getting served in this?
Here's a couple of signs, for those that can't read:
1. Why you would dump that much real life cash... regardless of how rich you are... into a GAME before knowing how to even play the game is, well... not grounded in rationality.
2. Why you would make threats about "finding" someone in real life over a game while simultaneously feeling the need to let everyone on earth know multiple times that you are a lawyer and that therefore that somehow being a lawyer makes your threats anymore ominous than the next guy is best case egomaniacal worst case borderline sociopathic.
How 'bout we get out of la-la land full of distractions about who "deserves" what and let this guy be held accountable to reality: he was a naive, egocentric moron who got duped twice.
You get what you create. |

Quote:4. Personal attacks are prohibited.
Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another forum user. Posts of this nature are not beneficial to the community spirit that CCP promote and as such they will not be tolerated.
5. Trolling is prohibited.
Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.
22. Post constructively.
Negative feedback can be very useful to further improve EVE Online provided that it is presented in a civil and factual manner. All users are encouraged to honestly express their feelings regarding EVE Online and how it can be improved. Posts that are non-constructive, insulting or in breach of the rules will be deleted regardless of how valid the ideas behind them may be. Users are also reminded that posting with a lack of content also constitutes non-constructive posting.
34. Posting of kill reports outside of the Crime & Punishment forum channel is prohibited.
More often than not, posts of this nature are made with inflammatory intent and are designed to promote trolling and flaming. Therefore, the posting of links to kill reports from any third party site, or the direct copy-pasting of kill reports from in game is prohibited on all forum channels of the EVE Online Forums, with the exception of the Crime & Punishment Channel.
Posts stringing up specific players for purposes of derision are never okay. Thread locked. ISD LackOfFaith Lieutenant Community Communication Liaisons (CCLs) Interstellar Services Department I do not respond to Eve Mail or anything other than the forums. |
