Yes this is just some personal vendetta Ripard Teg has against Erotica

For the love of Odin, stop posting you *&^%^$#E%#!!!!!11

I'm in the last page for two hours now, and before finishing the page another one pops up.

STOP TORTURING ME!! T_T I am out of RLM rifters...

I know it's only a day and a half old, so there are still people who won't have seen it yet in order to contribute, but any new contribution is going to fit into one of the existing groups of opinion.

Even with your strong feelings on this, is it possible to tone the language back a bit. Real life ****, torture and abuse of people with disabilities is a separate issue, each of which is abhorrent.

This doesn't need to share language with those issues.

According to you,

Slavery is consensual. Slave can always walk away right?
Domestic abuse is totally OK. Wife can always walk away right?
Sex trafficking is OK - the girl can awlays refuse to work.

Its funny how predators always try to justify their sickening actions. And they never mention the consequences for 'walking away'.

Let me spell it out for you.

If a person is threatened with losing something by walking away - that's coercion buddy. Whether it is physical safety in case of ****, or life in case of slavery, or internet isk, its irrelevant. Coercion is coercion.

And to do this to a vulnerable person....

Sickening.

There is NOTHING that separates people that do this from real-life pedophiles, rapists, murderers and slavers of the world.

And people like that should all suffer the same punishment IMHO.

E1 & Co. just made a cardinal mistake of pissing on the united states service men and women.

God knows i disagree with some things US gov't does, but I never disrespect and belittle the brave men and women who are sent to do dangerous jobs overseas.

For your little sadist circle to laugh about some very serious issues facing the service men and women is not cool. Especially since EVE Online is where a large number of them choose to spend their free time.

But keep digging.

Tell me how that matters you stupid ****.

Fact is a significant number of military personnel commit suicide, as well as police, Fire, and Emergency Responders... and it sure as hell ain't because they are in physical pain.

I can also tell you, that its not just 'being made fun of' that can validly be related to torture.

I love my Wife, I pray every day that we die on the same day, but I can tell you right now, If either one of us survives the other... for a very long time that would feel like 'torture'... The emotional pain of living beyond someone you love... or even being seperated from them.. that is real, and it hurts.

I doubt that Kaarous Aldurald or Remiel Pollard have reached the age when the pain of death has stung their lives.

Either that or they lack all sense of human empathy and truly are lost

Calling a Donkey an Ass, is just correct labeling.

Indeed it is. It's the first good analogy I've seen on this thread so far. It also demonstrates an aspect of the sandbox. He didn't change the dimensions or the composition of the sand, he didn't change the sandbox in any way. He took the poop out himself.

Ah, plenty of firewood under the stake? Good, good.

"Thou shall not suffer a witch to live." ~Exodus 22:18

Btw, hope this reaches page 300. There are probably records to be broken.

It is time to remove the fecal matter from the sandbox.

as others have said It breaks the 'risk vs reward' golden rule.

I think it'd be fair to say that both sides of the discussion would share this same sentiment.

Because when one of these "idiots" goes over the top, slots himself or harms someone else, then the game we love is going to be in some serious ****.

Yes he was obviously. It comes down to reasonable perceptions. Would you want a loved one to be subjected to similar abuse in a computer game? The majority of people certainly would answer in the negative.

Harassment is harassment. Harming CCP's reputation and the reputation of EvE is harming CCP's reputation and the reputation of EvE.

If I get a big enough lynch mob, can I get someone banned, too?

Ok, here's another angle :

Would it be a problem if the act in question was published on the front page of a newspaper? in the sense that there would be a general outcry of the majority of the population, and a strong backlash.
(and this is not just used for emails)

If the answer is yes, then CCP must address it, because without a response there *will* be more widespread publicity over this incident, just as B-R got widespread publicity.

Also, coming from the finance industry I'm very tempted to go fish for the contact information of CCP's investors and see how THEY would react if CCP did nothing...

Given the response I think its pretty clear that the majority of players do not want this behavior occurring in and around EvE. Enough said, time for CCP to give players what they want rather than cater to the small group of sadists they currently cater to.

Serious and important question: what's the record for one of these threads in terms of page count? Anyone know?

The turning over all before the torture commences is a tactic used in real brainwashing. One signifigant way brainwashing differs form hypnosis or persuasion is that in brainwashing the victim feels helpless. having everything gone leaves people like this. Thats why prisoners are often required to remove their clothes and stripped of all personal items. Powerful stuff.

Is it so, that it is required that the victim must submit to commensurate abuse, humiliation, degradation, and the assignment of arbitrary demands, in order to win?

the CIA has been going about the wrong way keeping their conversations going, they obviously need to scam them in eve online instead of going through all the trouble of capturing them and doing all that waterboarding stuff

Its really quite simple.

In order for Erotica1 to win, he must force the victim to leave the Bonus Room.

In order for the victim to win, he must fulfill every single demand that Erotica1 places upon him.

Erotica1 then applies psychological torture to the victim, to force them to leave the Bonus Room, whereupon he wins the Bonus Room.

This isn't rocket science.

Elaboration in my sig.

NPC Alts Say The Dumbest Things

This thread is just full of people intentionally blowing this way out of proportion because they just want to see Erotica banned, and they know if they don't exaggerate his crimes and blatantly make up new ones there is just no reason for CCP to ban him.

I'm not claiming it's fair to ban E1 for this, I'm saying CCP can and should do it to protect their bottom line.

Well done, Ripard, well done indeed.

Good fight.

Sorry! Still not reading :D

I must snipe that 300 page...DIBS!!

That post from Big Lynx or whoever gave me an idea. Personally, i dont think you guys can keep this thread alive this long, but here goes.



******20,000th poaster gets ONE PLEX from me.*********


and i better get some damn likes out of the deal too.

This thread wont live that long anyway.

Come. Give me all your assets and enter my game.

There I will abuse you for 100hrs if necessary with a unending demands that amuse my sadism, until you leave, and I win.

Wow, forum stalk much?

But yeah I agree, seize Erotica1's assets and ban the accounts, just to hear HIM rage and cry.
Hell, I'd pay money for such a delicious recording.
Also, Erotica1 sounds bent.

Jeez dude you have as many posts as the next 3 people combined. How much do you have invested in this? Let me guess around 4B in assets and 2 hours of your life?

If the mark leaves, they forfeit hope and dignity.

Forget having to log in and go look for PVP now...I can get a full dose of tears, screaming, insults, and badly worded arguments just coming to this thread.

Toss in some hazing by master ship-fitting experts and there we go, op success.

You can leave this thread at any time with no consequence to yourself.

You can block other posters so you never have to read their hurtful words.

If you are experiencing trauma as a result of reading this thread, you have only yourself to blame.

Derailment but true story . . . I tech high school, mentioned Hiroshima and Nagasaki to my math class (grade 10's).

A few looked confused and one asked why those cities were important.

I honestly stood there stunned for a moment before whispering "seriously?"

and they were

m

Obvious scam is obvious... Well played ero, you even got me to buy into this. I had the suspicion that this whole thing has been one elaborate troll job. Now I'm almost certain.

This is what I believe most likely happened here:

1) Ero not getting enough attention and getting bored

2) Ero scams guy expecting player base attention, All of these attempts ended up with the OP of these threads getting trolled off the forums.

3) Ero pays a prominent blogger to make a stink about it on his blog. Blogger does so resulting in out cry of the player base resulting in this thread.

4) Ero gets the attention he craves

5) ????

6) profit

We all just fell for an elaborate troll job from an attention *****...

Can we let this thread die now?

First post on the 400th page gets 100mill from me!

Luminous Spirit put up a very strong argument for his position.

Gee. You are asking if Ripard should be to blame simply because he brought it up?

For fun, let's play this game for just one more spin.

A known arsonist lights a fire and burned down the city park. The fire burns itself out and the arsonist walks away, but not before posting a big sign in front of the park with pictures of himself lighting the fire, fanning the flames, and p**sing on the ashes.

A few days go by and a local walks by and notices the ruined park. He tells the local journalist, who also happens to be a city councilman, and a story is run. The town's residents show up to the police station and demand the arsonist be made to leave town.


Now, in your world, the police would instead arrest the councilman.

Ramona, I think the ultimate issue here is, some people just don't know how to separate Eve from anything else in life. Eve is their life, so the EULA/ToS binds all.

Send a message via e-mail mentioning EVE=falls under ToS.
Facebook post about EVE=still bound by EULA
Hop on TS and have an EVE convo=better follow those rules or they'll gitcha!

The concept of "I have left CCPs sphere of influence" utterly eludes them.
