First: WELL DONE CCP. Swift, clean and hard.
I would like to hear CCP's stance on the (reportedly) increasingly abhorrent behavior during Fanfest. Reports of vandalism to Harpa restrooms, fights during pub crawl, open hostilities and such.
Does CCP discuss these things internally? Are CCP considering themselves in any way responsible?
I'm not laying blame here, be sure of that. The people doing 'bad stuff' are to blame.
We all know that CCP foster an atmosphere of "party hard" and "HTFU". Personally I've opted out of the Pub Crawls since the flag was introduced as it is unwise to mix alcohol and real life PvP.
I'd very much like to bring my kids to Fanfest. I'd like the community to be nice and celebrate the game we love. Not read about beaten up faces, arrests and criminal charges. Frankly it reeks. And although a small part of the attendees are the problem CCP is probably the only entity that can do something about it.
Perhaps this is an issue for another thread. Please feel free to move it, if that is the case. |

Yes. It even went to the prosecutor. But that was not in any way related to eve. In fact it was back in the -80's.
What's your point? |

Yes. It even went to the prosecutor. But that was not in any way related to eve. In fact it was back in the -80's. What's your point? The point is, if the penalties for honesty is a harsh punishment, and the penalty for lying is, well, nothing, would you be honest?
Depends on the issue. IF I had made something really stupid, under the influence, and I woke up to regret it and feeling very bad about it yes. If not, then no.
But what I would have done, or you or anybody else is hardly the issue here. |

I'll give that a serious reply if you can tell me what the punishment would have been had said parties, as you claim, not come forward. |
