With this new term 'cyber bullying' being thrown around, I really am shaking my head here. When I was young(tm), people dealt with 'bullies' as a normal part of coming of age, on their own. People dealt with all life challenges in fact, without having to codify it with a marketing term to convert individual fail into victimization...
You want to know why some young people are killing themselves due to 'bullying'?
It's because they were fricken bubble wrapped since birth and grew up without having to develop any adversity management skills, so when the first 'big' challenge did come their way their brains exploded. ****, Johnny didn't invite me to the dance, I will slit my wrists in the tub...
Now I am not talking about putting all kids in the Agoge of Sparta, but what I am asking is aren't these well-intentioned idiots who coin pansification terms like 'cyber bullying' just making more life-neutered pussies?
tldr; HTFU
Bullying was manageable indeed, until Social Media came along and offered all new opportunities for incidents and "pranks" to be displayed worldwide, by anyone, anywhere.
It's become a huge problem. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

That is definitely a particularly insidious aspect of cyberbullying, however if you want to call what's happening in the bonus room "cyberbullying," then that aspect is not at play in this situation, because as far as we know, erotica1 does not harass "clients" after the bonus round has ended.
Well, after the orgasm, it's kind of a moot point. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Salvos Rhoska wrote:Crumplecorn wrote:But when it's a racist, homophobic 'plane controller' who hands over his stuff to the most infamous 'scammer' in EVE history and rages intensely when said scammer won't give it back? Not so much. But you didn't know he was, till after an hour or so of subjecting him to passive aggressive taunting, humiliating and demeaning tasks as well as frustration. Infact for all we know, he isnt actually a homophobe or a racist, even though he said those things in an emotional outburst. The way you portray how you think of the victims, or "clients" as you refer to them, is interesting. How about this by comparison. A pugdy, short, ms,piggylike and rather dim 30ish blonde woman walks into a biker bar dressed in what she thinks are clothes that would be attractive to men. She looks around upon entry, and decides she is going to try her luck on the loudest guy there. Shes a bit of a dits, but she really wants to get somewhere with this guy. He tells her "Hey baby, gimme half your moneh, and Ill double it fer ya". She does so. And he does, Her confidence in him is lifted. Her rather empty head begins to dimly contemplate possibilities. Later in the evening, he informs her,"hey sugarpie, you still got that money? well, give it to all to me and then we'll go somewhere we can REALLY make this something. She complies, and follows him outside of the bar and down a neighboring dark alley. There, a bunch of strange men show up, and start demanding that she performs demeaning and humiliating tasks for them if she wants her money back, at the same time as passive aggressively taunting her. This continues for 2hrs until she finally can't stand it anymore, throws a huge fit and storms out of the alleyway with the men laughing at her back. They also recorded the activity for their friends to watch and enjoy. Would that be an accurate analogy, do you think? How much sympathy do you feel for ms.piggy in this example, as compared to a client in the Bonus Room?
DANG ! The misogyny is strong in this one.

4: While these people met through EVE, CCP has no control over what is said or done in TS... nor should they.
Oh yes they do. Not during the "incidents" of course as they are random and unpredictable and have to be reported first.
But CCP can indeed initiate a "clean up" response.
These knuckleheads are just pushing things to the limit so that CCP has no choice but to take action and actually implement rules contrary to the original intent of EVE.
Ero1 and equivalent cronies are just trying to break your EVE, and nothing more.
A sad, but well-played trolling it will have been when this happens.

In America we have a long and proud history of scamming and emotional distress. For example we traded useless beads to the natives for all their land knowing they in their culture they had no concept of property ownership.
Those beads were considered valuable to them.
What would the natives have needed actual money for as they had existed without it for millenia ? Were they supposed to buy tea with it ? "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

I've noticed you in palas the past few weeks and let you be. If you're going to start posting again, I may have to fire the engines of woe back up.
I've been posting constantly for years. Where have you been ????????
I have no idea where or what Palas is. Troll and most indeed.
And an irrelevant post that strangely ties into the same problems folks are having with ingame behaviors here in this thread.
Well played. Except that psychological warfare doesn't really work at your level of lame. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Absolutely dead wrong.
As a recovering alcoholic (since 1997) I can attest that the behavior continues even after interest in the substance is completely lost. The mind literally tricks one into thinking one cannot survive without the substance, and it has nothing to do with the "high" anymore at all.
It's just "maintenance drinking" and using at that point. The only hope that even works is a Rehab. Period. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |
