It's double standards, that's all.
It seems that CCP sees a nutjob doxxing you and threatening your family after you blew him up as a poor, emotionally distressed victim. But if you've so much as idled in Ero's channel, it's guilt by association + permaban with prejudice. Twitter: @EVEAndski

I mean really, all of the **** that has caused ~outcries~ by the community (bonus room, suicidegate or whatever) pales in comparison to someone being threatened by somebody who actually goes to the lengths of finding your RL address and the names of your family members yet if the latter happens, GMs do not care, senior GMs do not care and they'll simply tell you to contact law enforcement.
So by CCP's standards of what constitutes harassment:
Making someone fear for the safety of their family members and themselves = investigating is :effort:, don't care, maybe law enforcement (ahahahaha, nope) will deal with it we dunno?
Making someone upset on teamspeak = very very bad, you're a monster, here's a permaban Twitter: @EVEAndski

Mittani was the high profile warning shot across the bow.
That warning shot has either been forgotten or ignored, and now the consequences are starting to hit.
All that this and the Mittens thing have established is that if something - anything - you do causes an outcry, say your goodbyes.
"Magic circle" analogies and "strict policy enforcement" are a farce. All that matters for them is PR: they want to look like they're enforcing the rules that are supposed to make EVE a secure environment, but they don't actually want to walk the walk unless they're going to look bad publicly.

And just where is this "safer side" you talking about? its a game, ships get blown up, ppl scam and so on so just where is this safe side
See the examples in previous posts where this logic falls apart. Twitter: @EVEAndski

It should be (and very probably is) blindingly obvious to any right minded individual when they are overstepping the mark, and I for one don't want to have to play the same game as people who honestly have sociopathic proclivities.

I idled in E1's bonus room channel simply because I happened to be invited there for some odd reason over a year ago. I never interacted with anyone in there beyond the first time when it was more of "huh what's this place about?", getting an explanation, and switching to another channel because I'm not really interested in listening to people with bad singing voices. I prefer listening to people read bad fan fiction as a ransom/punishment, personally.
This dumb guilt by association crap would have netted me a permaban for no reason other than accepting an invite and not bothering to leave the channel the last time I decided my chat window was overcrowded with dumb channels. Then I'd have to wait a week or two to figure out why I got banned and spend another 2-4 weeks appealing my case, all because somebody was triggerhappy with permabans over some drama, even though they don't give a rat's ass about actual sociopaths like a few in this thread have discussed experiences with.
The beautiful irony is that so many of those in this thread drowning in their ~righteous indignation~ over the monstrous act of scamming someone and humiliating them on a TS3 that they can leave at will will turn around and parrot BS platitudes like "your actions have consequences" in response to those discussing such incidents, because it's all right and good to intimidate people and threaten personal harm in retaliation for losing in a game.

S'No Flake wrote:You have to understand something... A lot of things are changing... every day, month, year... Laws are changing too. When that stuff happened to you, probably CCP didn't have a precedence... they didn't have a 'law' for it.
CCP doesn't work on precedent, and things like doxxing for intimidation tend to be pretty cut and dried in online communities because it's toxic as ****. They don't need a precedent to say "whoa this is some ****** up ****", drop the banhammer and advise the other party to take it to law enforcement. There's a reason why something that'll get you a two week ban can get another guy a permanent/indefinite ban, and it all has to do with context, prior violations, and other such things.

Adrie Atticus wrote:And you know that they haven't received a warning or a temporary ban because you have access to the GM system?
Send a new ticket, argue that you almost committed a suicide in real life because your feelings were hurt so badly, that should get you results.
You'd also have to stop suicide ganking in the process to be seen as an actual victim, but I guess that's part of the deal to get justice.
do you really consider a warning proportionate to that level of derangement Twitter: @EVEAndski

I hardly expect CCP to clarify this any further, not because they believe people will simply dance on the edge of the line, but because they simply don't have a line drawn and enforcement is absolutely down to the whims of whatever GM handles a given case. Twitter: @EVEAndski

LUMINOUS SPIRIT wrote:And it was correct of CCP to do so. One does not hang out in these channels just by accident.
Yes they do. These types of channels often send out shotgun invites to loads of people who might or might not be interested in what goes on there, and a lot of us simply accept those invites to get them out of the way and leave it out of sight and out of mind.
Again, this is guilt by association crap that CCP really shouldn't be dealing in. Twitter: @EVEAndski

Mr Epeen wrote:Link me to one thread where a claim of innocence for a ban was legit. I have yet to see CCP get it wrong on a ban. They spend months digging into these guys activities. Stop whining and digging for excuses, Andski. You used to not be such a whiner. What happened? Mr Epeen 
Did you know that permabanned people don't tend to post on the forums to appeal their bans because a game ban extends to the forums? They tend to do that through the petition system. They also don't tend to talk about it much on the official forums after the fact. This new knowledge must blow your mind. Twitter: @EVEAndski

But no, I call BS on your claim that ""a lot of us simply accept those invites to get them out of the way"" . You are a Goon - a member of a group who's stated and much-hyped purpose is to ruin other's game experience.
So no, Goons who were in that channel, knew exactly what it was for. No tears shed.
More platitudes and guilt by association nonsense. I'm sorry but by this logic CCP should have banned everyone involved with SOMER Blink too. Twitter: @EVEAndski

Mr Epeen wrote:Where did I say it was the banned person protesting his innocence. Apologists like you do it just fine for them. CCP never ban people lightly. You have to push them and push them hard to get yourself banned permanently. Everyone that got banned deserved it. They pushed and now they're crying because CCP pushed back. And they're not crying on this forum. They're crying (and being destroyed for it) on all the unofficial forums. It's a joy to behold. Mr Epeen 
Maybe you should read through my previous posts. What I'm particularly miffed by is CCP's double standards. A guy who gets doxxed and threatened with personal harm against him and his family for awoxing a couple of dudes in his hisec corp is basically told to **** off by CCP who do nothing to address the incident, but people tangentially associated with whatever reincarnation of the bonus room existed are blanket banned permanently.
CCP enforces a different set of rules for those who play one way and for those who play another way. Twitter: @EVEAndski

evepal wrote:So, it's just self admitted personal incredulity. You have no fault with the actual ban, you just can't tell right from wrong, from being in the spirit of eve to taking it into the realms of harassment? That does sound a lot like a personal problem.
so doxxing, stalking and threatening personal harm against other players in retaliation for in-game actions is right in your book

evepal wrote:So you complain on the forums, instead of posting evidence to CCP and taking it to the authorities? Nice, real believable. The sheep are out for round two of their rhetoric, and the anger has built up inside them. I slept well last night guys, knowing those who take it into the realm of harassment were punished accordingly.

evepal wrote:I never stated that, I just said with evidence. That's the assumption here, because without evidence there's nothing the authorities nor CCP could do. However, if he had evidence then the ban would have happened and he wouldn't be using the strawman to support the rhetoric. Which in itself is addressing what you said. There's no other point you made that I haven't addressed before.
And you're making even more baseless assumptions to support your baseless assumptions. Twitter: @EVEAndski

Notice how I've not said his opinion is wrong, just the way he's supporting his argument?
and even if he did post evidence, how would that validate his statement? emails can be faked (and this is something you would move to if he chose to do so) and you're not allowed to post GM correspondence on the forums anyway Twitter: @EVEAndski
