Quote:Permabans for saying something mean? I don't condone taking the mick out of the way someone speaks (unless you're Welsh), nor do I do it (unless you're Welsh), but people like you are the reason a fat guy can get arrested for telling a joke about fat people in England.
Check the length of the recording. That stuff went on for over an hour, with the player's in-game assets being used as leverage to continue the abuse. This was not an isolated off-hand comment. |

Spread the word! Force CCP to act! Forcing CCP to act is a worthy goal, but I am more interested in quality than in speed. A quick banhammer will only fuel the apologists and rules lawyers who always demand to know exactly where a line is drawn. Just get it right, CCP, and protect yourselves from the association--whether or not you desire a particular outcome for this situation. I think you get it. It's not about slamming a ban on anyone. It's more about saying "Not comfortable with this - tone it down" - it reflects on their product. After that - up to CCP. I stated before that I didn't think Erotica1 should be banned. It's up to CCP to define the line that can be crossed. Whether this is it is for them to choose. For me it crossed that line. Not my bag to make that decision/
It crossed the line for me as well. One of the things that makes online games fun is being able to play with your friends. It's hard to get friends to play this game already due to EVE's reputation for stuff like this. EVE's player base is mostly older than other MMO's, and older folks read the news and pay attention to this stuff.

Dispensing your own justice is what this game is all about. You have yourself a valid cause. Do something about it.
The guy literally never undocks. There is nothing TO do about it; the game prevents it.

Losing your 'assets' in EVE is the equivalent of like losing a game of Monopoly. (Assets in EVE have no value, and CCP can take them away at any time for any reason.)
That would be a good analogy, if a Monopoly game lasted six years and you had to play a minimum of six months before you had trained the necessary skill to build hotels.
