I have never scammed or cheated another player in this game. But the players that DO scam make the game more fun for me. Awoxers make recruiting a FUN, INTERESTING event with reason not to just accept anyone in. If they do make it in, the game goes to the next level and the corp has to deal with an awoxer! Much better than killing red crosses! Gives you a chance to see the mettle of your corpmates and the resilience of your corp.
I have thought of making a new character to do a safari, like on the Eve Villain blog. However, after the banning of Erotica1 I have been second guessing this. If one of the people I awox has a mental disorder, or exaggerates any emotional anguish, can my account(s) be banned without warning if I cross this invisible line? I don't plan to 'torture' anyone and knowing myself I will probably feel bad after an Orca dies and reimburse the guy I kill. But you never know how people will take losing their space pixels...
My question is this: How can I 'safely' play a bad guy without putting my subscription at risk? What is the 'invisible line' defined as? (I hear suicide comments every 2 seconds in local, but if they say they will kill themselves if they don't get their stuff back is that an auto-win against scamming?) |

Yes it's safe.
Unless you have a CSM blog about it. 
Edit: We really don't need another thread on this tbh.

Keep it in game, be polite and don't break the EULA.
Leave the EULA breaches up to the players that are scammed, awoxed and ganked. They're good at it.

Personally I don't understand the desire to become a space-telemarketer or a space nigerian prince.
What's the appeal here? Maybe its just me but the amount this goes on seems to have increased substantially since I started playing EVE.
Few people understand the psycology of a highway traffic cop. Your average speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow. |

It's the fine clientele CCP's new 'dumb everything down" for the noobs policy is bringing in, while way to many good casual players have left.
Shifting the advantage more and more to null mega alliances is another huge problem with eve management.
Market bots are popping up everywhere, and I am so tired of continually reporting the same 23/7 miner bots that I can't be bothered anymore.

Stealth "Tears for E1" thread?
I am so conflicted.
I HATE scams and anyone that preys on ignorance. Eve has so many areas it is difficult to know EVERYTHING.
On the other hand.....I hate to see the game I love continue down the road of turning into a WOW themepark with safety rails, cushions and story-lines to hold the player's hand while crawling down the bunny slope.
But dang I would love to have my ISK doubled. Hmmmm.... |

In the end, scam, AWOX and betray eachother as much as you like. Steal from eachother as much as you like. Gank, pod and sabotage eachother as much as you like. These are the stories that drive gameplay in EVE, and we are not looking to re-define the sandbox. We do however need to make it clear that in the, end every sandbox has edges just the same as EVE has limits, and those limits are built on a basic level of empathy, understanding and humaine behavior.
Do you know what this means? I am going to continuing playing the game, how I want to play it, as described above, and I will simply let those who cannot control their ****, weed themselves out of the game.
Don't cry for Ero, OP. I am sure he is doing just fine, lol.
And don't beat a dead horse. It clogs the forums.

I actually don't know much about Erotica1 other than the stuff that's blown up around him in the last bit. I think Ricimer Scipio (Spelling?) is more interesting and I like his infiltration and tracking/intel. But what he does could be called 'sadistic' especially the way he remains polite when people are #$$@!$%&!$#(%! raging at him.
I think Erotica1 probably is at the lower end of the range of scammers, but the two are basically doing the same thing? Could Ricimer get banned if someone makes a big deal about him? That's what I'm basically asking? |

A) this thread should be locked
B) if there is a remote possibility of anyone actually gaining any information from it here is all you need to know:
1. There are those who want to play a villan.
2. There are those who pretend to be one as they learn to navigate their way through life.
3. Then there are those truly sadistic pieces of excrement that actually are.
Don't be #3 and you are all set.

Im sorry, but the online personality sniffer and compiler must have deemed you not worthy to be a Villain. Its ok, maybe villainy isn't your thing. How do you feel about being a henchmen? Due to the high mortality rate among the henchmen trade, Heroes tend to shoot henchmen by the truckload., there is ALWAYS job openings for henchmen.

Seeing a thread asking if being a villain in EVE gets your account banned is really a sad thing to witness.
Hell, the former biggest alliance in-game was ran by villains, and was destroyed by villains, for villains.

Do anything you want to anyone's eve assets. In game, say anything you want within the EULA/TOS. Out of game, Trollish Blog/EN24/TMC/various forum posts are ok.
Repeated humiliation sessions over voice comms or other third party programs are not ok. The line in the sand was drawn pretty fcking clearly; a lot of people just refuse to see it.
And honestly, there aren't many people in the Eve community that sink so low as to warrant a ban by these standards. In fact, I only know of one such case. |
