I spend a lot of my time reading these forums and almost every time I see a new person make a post on these forums asking for help or trying to figure something out that person is trolled, flamed, and mocked.
Every time I see someone trolled and flamed I bite my tongue, scared that if I try and help il be dragged down to but I had enough of it.
My final straw was the post I read yesterday about how a ceo wanted to dispand his corp that was war dec'd, so that his corp wouldnt have to pvp. He was compeletely flamed and trash talked.
You know what, He pays the monthly fee, let him play how he chooses, if he doesnt want to pvp that his damn choice. I actualy think he deserved props for being new and figuring out how to manipulate the game mechanics in his favor without breaking the rules so that he didnt have to pvp after being war dec'd and that the corp that war dec'd him just lost million of isk to fight a corp that doesnt exist.
Not everyone is a eve vet. How would you like if it was your first day in eve and you were all excited and decided to make your first forums post, and then the embaressment
of getting trashed by the community.
This forum community has gotten to the point where a large majority of the people are nothing short of abusive.
There is a simple saying: "If you have nothing nice to say, Don't say anything at all".
I know there are a few of us who make an effort to help by posting positive and constructive comments but sadly they are usualy overshadowed by forum trolls.
I have been watching this community get worse and worse since I started eve a few years ago.
Im tired of keeping quiet. If you want to flame me for saying this or put me down with stupid comments so be it. Atleast I had enough courage to speak up and I know I am in the right.

1. AFAIK leaving a corp to get out of the way of war-decs is classified as an exploit.
2. Who cares about the 2 Millions (or whatever, even if it were 20), ISK is really not the problem in Eve
^^ That wasn't the point. The point is that alot of people around here think EvE should be 100% PvP and won't accept anything else.
I agree with the OP, it's complete BS. People can play this how they see fit, even the corp that war dec'd, but flaming someone for being a n00b/Asking a question/Saying something you personaly dont agree with is just plain riduculous and does nothing but prove the poster has the mental age of a lemon.
Kudos @ OP.
