It is a very damning blog. I can only surmise that Jester has brought the subject up with CCP and was not happy with there response which thus led him to create this blog. (Many apologise if I am wrong) I would be very interested to hear what the community at large thinks and perhaps for Erotica and friends to refute the claims being made that they actually enjoy the pain and humiliation that they cause, especially to the man in the recording linked in Jesters Blog. Is it CCP's responsibility to police out of game interaction between their players where no law has been broken? If so, where does that responsibility end? Should they ban a player when his wife complains about him playing EVE instead of doing the chores? If I hook up with another EVE player who happens to be from say Japan, should CCP have the right and duty to ban me if the GM involved disapproves of inter-racial relationships? What about homosexual relationships? What if I encourage another player to log in to fleet and miss church on sunday? Where exactly does CCP's "responsibility" end?
Jester angel of view is also that of public view Malcanis. We have 3 involved parties here. Erotica1 who enjoy's tearhunting,, sohkar and his right for dignity, and .... last but not least CCP, who doesn't want bad publicity.
I, for myself, really see here the posssibilty that these kind of bonus events might inspire some really bad real life consequences someday. Thats why Jester marks it as (psychological) torture.
I put it in other words.....
1. Will CCP get bad press because somebody plays eve online non-stopr 72 hours, then suffers a collapse and dies sitting in front of computer screen ? ...probaply no
2. Will CCP get bad press because somebody plays eve online all day , then isolated's himself from RL social kontext, then gets a depression and commits suicide ? ...probaply no. Drug abuse is far to common to make it into the newsheadlines.
3. Will CCP get bad press if someone is humiliiated on TS server by fellow participants of eve online , then suffers a mental collaps and then beats his wife up or jumps out of the window ? ...... maybe yes
If eve players, and especially CSM members, are ever willing to achieve goals in their relations to the game developers they always have to tie themselves to CCP's prospertiy. I thought you knew that malcanis
