There is a point where sadism isn't a fetish anymore but a disease.
Question is: Does CCP like to be associated with this? Let's ask that question to the PR people.

Rely on the EVE Debate Club to turn a thread into an argument about hypothetical scenarios and argumentative fallacies producing 5 pages per minute of irrelevant rambling.

Xander Delacroix wrote:1. At what point does 'emergent gameplay' become 'cyber-bullying?
2. If such a point is established what could, and indeed what should, CCP do about it?
It shouldn't be a point but a vague nebulous grey area that will allow CCP to almost arbitrarily ban anyone at any time who dares to enter if they so feel like it. As soon as it is clearly defined, people will balance on the edge of "legality". With a grey area, anyone that tries to find that fine line will get lost and possibly eaten.

It needs two people for this: One that gives the other power over themselves and the other that abuses said power. The former you call stupid, the latter you call vile.

Say the mods are following the thread, there is little way one person can keep track; I do wonder if they have tools to "deconstruct" the thread and get a feel for how many people are really talking. Just as an example, imagine if the mods could pull out all Kaarous and Salvos posts (no offense guys, you are just good examples), and see how many pages the thread drops by just from those two poster alone.
Not to mention the number of alts and other sock puppets used to manufacture a mood for support for or against this or that one. Who knows, maybe it's 100 pages of one person arguing among himself with a large number of accounts. We will never truly know. Deconstructing a thread like this is next to impossible.

That the teamspeak happened out of game doesn't put it out of CCP's area of interest. RMT agreements happen out of game, too, while in game someone gives his stuff away, yet CCP takes in game action against RMTers.

This isn't a thread anymore, it's a M+¦bius strip.

Every day I open this thread with new pages, I see the same circle of arguments and posts, sometimes from the same people even. Curious how long this will go on. But my time's running out. I'll be back in summer to check on my favourite MMORPG I'm not subscribed to. By then you should manage to get some 2-3k pages of this. Great thing about circles is that they don't have a start or beginning. You can go round and round forever.

CCP has to take notice and respond quickly due the huge feedback and feelings about this,
Close this thread? Are you crazy? This is a containment area. You don't let the zombies out for a pub crawl while you're waiting for the DHS to respond.
