Actually, I am of the impression that Erotica 1's name should be etched on the CCP monument.
He creates the best emergent gameplay in EVE, hands down.
And profits derived from those who refuse to follow instructions are generously donated to the New Order so they can gank full-time in free Catalysts.
Its like WIN-WIN-WIN. A triple win situation should be celebrated. |

And, now, having read the actual blog....did he just call Erotica 1 EVIL?
I'm quite convinced that Ripard is the intolerable sort that whines to the coach when he gets hazed by his team-members in the men's locker room.
Of course this is theoretical. Because it would require Ripard actually setting foot in a men's locker room for something other than pilates or yoga. You know, something that doesn't require stretchy see-through pants. |

Actually, Ripard's blog itself was a very clear personal attack on Erotica 1. Would you classify this as 'being a douche' as well?
I guess in /c's world, douchbag-ism is only reserved for people who 'aren't like him'.
Whats getting lost in this? At any point the so-called 'victim' could have shut off teamspeak and walked away. ANY point. His own character flaws kept him there. You don't get to put that on Erotica 1.
Harrassment? Don't make me laugh. Sohkar could have walked out at any time, but no, he chose to rant and rave like a moron, get his wife involved - and was held up to well-deserved ridicule.
Ripard's screwed up worldview that leads to people like George Zimmerman being arrested for a show-trial. He won in court because common sense still manages to assert itself once in awhile. Lesson: Treyvon killed Treyvon by choosing to aggressively attack an armed man that was acting well within his rights.
Sohkar did this to Sohkar. End of story.

Actually I was calling you out for being derogatory towards Ripard - which has absolutely nothing to do with "nothing like me" part. It's the example of why you did not criticize the post rather than saying there's something wrong with a guy doing yoga or pilates - because those have lots to do with the discussion at hand right? /c
I was making inferences about Ripard based on the content of his blog, yes. Similar to how he was making very inferences about Erotica 1 and his ISK-Doubling business. Yet, I am the one you chose to single out as a douche.
Really, its not all that radical to opine that someone who would cry and whine about the everyday 'rough and tumble' of EVE (that Erotica 1 represents) would also cry and whine about a little teenage adversity in the locker room.
Or, to suggest that as adults they would avoid those situations later in life by engaging entirely in non-confrontational activity such as yoga. |

There are elements within CCP that tend toward this arbitrary way of thinking, however.
After all, isn't this the same outfit that decided to apparently hand out a 1 year ban to Fon Revedhort for having the temerity to hold unfashionable political views AND run for CSM 7/8?
I can understand CCP not wanting a white supremacist on the CSM - and turfing him from the election. But CCP decided to go further and handed out a lengthy in-game suspension anyway.
Not sure I'm comfortable with CCP handing out bans for what amounts to 'out of game thought-crime'. |
