Someone has to love me. Pretty sure the fedo is dead, but it's hard to tell by smell alone.... cannot find it. Also, I've apparently been banned from all pet shops in New Eden for some reason as well. Getting hard up here and those frozen corpses are starting to look very inviting.

Yeah, I have to agree, I don't see any bullying here. They've taken to disliking this guy, rational or not is irrelevant, and for that they've chosen to being against any group he is allowed to be part of. That's just the way the game is played. You can choose to like or dislike whoever you want.

This is about CVA trying to pressure me to cast my friend adrift cause they don't like him.
Not for in game reasons, not for tactical reasons...
Personal reasons. So stand up to CVA. Tell them no, you're not going to boot a member of your alliance just because they say so. If they set you red set it back and actively fight against them. If you really believe in what you are saying here, then stand up for him and stand up for your beliefs. At the very least it's entertaining content.

On this topic, I think CCP should tread lightly. EvE is a game about Villains. I've kicked people before just because I don't like them. Meshing poorly means poor teamwork, honesty.
DId Leadership talk to this guy? Was he warned? These are some key details being left out.
However there is a line, between Harassment and Bullying. And Harassment in EVE online. Can't really find a way to put it elegantly but there is.
Currently, I see nothing wrong with what happened here. Again yes it was an issue with getting along fine. Following this guy around and trying to get everyone to spurn him? step too far no? theres been worse, I can think of 1 at a public event. the thing you must see is its people behind a computer that think they are anonymous so they believe they can say and do what they want because no harm will come to them until you can kick them in the balls with a pair of spiked steel toe boots. Ive found ways to cause the deaths of some people in the game because they believed they were high and mighty and untouchable in empire. if you care for your friend, you to can find a way to hit back

People get the wrong impression that I want some sort of group cuddle over everything that is mean to anyone. That's not the case. I just have a reasonable expectation of balance between players who want to kill and player who want to hug, and would rather not see direct attempts to create out of game upset being widely accepted. Outside of that, if you want to hate somoeone for whatever reason you want and react with in-game actions, what does it matter?

I really feel like people are missing the point here.
We have a player kicked out of alliance cause he doesn't get along with people. So far so good.
We have an allied alliance of CVA (me) who recruited said person.
I'm being told that our alliances can't be allies because they don't like him.
If this person hurt CVA, fine I'd get that but morally you should not be bullying other people and telling them who they can't have in your alliance for out of game reasons.
As it stands CVA has set us red, removed our forum and Intel channel access and is in the process of getting their other allies to follow suite.
We do not live in providence but this throws a monkey wrench into the fleets of people we fly with.
Again I stress this is for out of game reasons. As far as I'm concerned it's a **** move made out of spite. Something's just don't need to happen even in EvE.
If someone set all know say frech players red because they don't like French people yes they are allowed with in the game rules but it's still a racist douchy move. People would look at that and say "dude really?"
I see this as no different.
Yes EvE is a harsh game but a game none the less and out of game crap needs to be left at the login screen. |

Yes EvE is a harsh game but a game none the less and out of game crap needs to be left at the login screen. We all get that, you said it clearly many times. Sure, it's a douchy move, but it's not bullying, it's simply and expression of preference. They don't like that guy and won't be friendly with any group he's in. It may be harsh, it may be without what you consider good reasons, but it's the game. If you don't like that they've done that, stand up to them. If you just kick him out to save yourselves from the possibility of getting roflstomped by CVA, then you're no better than them.

It is CVA's prerogative to do what they will. Guy was probably a big ******* ( Oh I forgot he has a disease that makes him an *******). So you take him in and now they don't want to play with you. How is that bullying? You want CCP to intercede?

Being set red and barred from rejoining an alliance is not bullying. Grow up and HTFU.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.

What you missing 'CSM to be is' that EvE politics are a murky mess at best and one that most certainly doesn't need person issue brought into.
For instance allies of CVA who I roam and roll with frequently no do not have the diplomatic ability to do so now without risking the blue status of their peers.
If I lived in northern space or was say in caldari militia I wouldn't give a damn but this is is literately cutting my fleets in half. Those who would fly with me can't because they can't afford it.
CVA knows this.
How about you pay attention to the political landscape and ramifications first before you think this is about my apparently poor feelings. |

That's how this game is played. Either you kick him and keep your fleets but sell out your values or you keep him, take what CVA want to dish out and stand up for your beliefs. That's all there is to this. It's not bullying, it's not harassment, it's just one group imposing it's rules over a smaller group, something that happens every single day in EVE. The only thing you're likely to get posting this in C&P is more reds.

I've got an idea! Ditch your "friend" and all your problems are gone. We all know he is kinda... you know... cramping your style and all.
Well... Maybe you could do that and apologize to the good people of C&P while you are at it since you are stressing them out with your cringe worthy troll posts.
Do that and you are golden, free to roam with the plethora of other "friends" you have in game.
No thanks, just me giving back to the community.

Removing annoying people from your group in a video game and being annoyed when someone subverts (intentionally or coincidentally) the steps you took to remove them from your group is not bullying.
You're a terrible person for equating this to actual bullying, which can ruin peoples lives. |

Is this really about 'your friend' anymore... because you seem to talk less and less about 'your friend' and more and more about 'CVA denying you fleets' or something.. ill be honest.. I pretty much clocked out on this after 'bullying'.
Also, its a known fact in C&P, that when someone makes a thread about their 'friend', 99 times out of 100, that 'friend' is them.
Friends don't let friends post on their behalf.
Also, griping about CVA and their policies probably wont help your 'cant get CVA fleet' problem.. as a matter of fact, it will probably get you set KOS. That's the beauty of CVA NRDS.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Can only do a PoV, but they obviously didn't remove him for his syndrome, but for his behaviour. *Rubbing people the wrong way*. So regardless of the origins for that rubbing which you really can't spot just via TS or chat channels, he was just shown the door for being an apparently unbearable person.
Wonder if there was more to it though, because setting him red seems weird and inconclusive.
Afterwards you invited a red! Dood! You don't do that! Solve him being red and then accept him.

Going to put this in simple terms Provi space CVA rules pretty much all other groups in provi seems to be pets from my limited knowledge of the area. You don't like the rules then leave or fight. IF I don't like someone in fleet I call them primary if they disrupt operation's mute them on Comms. If they continue to disrupt operation kick them and don't let them back eve life. You live in null sec friend if you don't like maybe a new sec of space or renting is better for you and your friend. |

OP, there are numeous issues with your position.
First, I dont see what it has to do wit C&P.
Second, EVE, and your corp/alliance/coalition are not your, or your friend's therapist/family/support group/school/church/ governement/etc. This is a game people pay to spend their time enjoying. No ne is or should be obligated to welcome incompatible people into their group, regardless of the reason for that incompatibility. Just because a person has a particular condition does not mean their wants automatically take priority over everyone else's.
This is not - in any way - bullying. This is about people who do not want to deal with problems that they have no obligation to dealwith. It is, furthermore, in game (even if occurs in voice comms) because the issue arises from in-client interactions: namely, the desire to live in a particular area of space with its local space tribe.
Your argument reminds me a lot of people who extoll the merits of free-to-play gaming because they don't have much money/are a college student/have medical issues/live in a poor country. The issue is similar and so is the answer. This is a video game, not a life necessity or obligation and you are not entitled to t or any aspect of it. There are no special needs here because there are no needs at all. |

That's not bullying, but here's a similar story and situation:
The first corp I joined had someone that was of the same nature. He seemed to lack any sort of social skills, and I suspected he had some sort of autism or asbergers. I can think of specific instances where said autist had his own personal channel in teamspeak and he would literally flip out of someone went in there without his permission... This guy continued to rub people the wrong way and cause unneeded issues, but instead of booting him the CEO sent him to hisec and told him he had a "special" job for him. I didn't know what his "job" was until I saw him in comms for the first time in 5 months. The CEO had told him to get out of nullsec and to help the corp out by mining ice alone in hisec.
It was a brilliant idea... I need to find my own autist to enslave. brb |
