Can't.

Some people have no self-control or moral compass.

They need an outside influence to monitor their antics or they'd defecate all over everyone and everything.

Alot of people do it right now cuz they're dumb, but CCP likes them because they've been dumb for a long time.

Now if you said "CCP make it so everyone has to follow the forum rules", I'd be totally down for supporting your cause.

This game's boards are afflicted with GM favoritism.

This isn't a troll thread, it was an inquiry. Now you can state you either support removing the forum rules, or sustaining them.

I agree wholeheartedly.
This thread is now a petition for bans on people who start really pointless threads.

This thread is going places.







If you can't handle the Eve Reddit, what makes you think you'd be able to handle these forums unmoderated?

Freedom is overrated, there are greater men who simply know better whats best for you. Man can only free and happy if he is liberated from his freedom and all the chaos and is given structure, guidance and leadership.

To be fair redit is packed with practically millitant atheists, the sort that I (an atheist) am ashamed to be considered part of the same demographic.

They* flat out (to a point I don't mean to generalize) have zero respect for anything one has to say from a religious standpoint because of the feedback loop / circle jerk of r atheism, you know the sort of place you find Richard Dawkins lurking.

* not all credit users

And if this idea somehow makes it, there is a good chance we'll see that here. I'd rather keep my white-knight ISDs and restrictive rules in exchange for a little bit of peace. Good trolls will find a way to apply their skills, as they always have!

I don't think good trolls still inhabit this place nearly often enough, there is just a lack of posters here now. This place use to be happening in the COAD days.

The good ones are here. A good troll is hard to spot, and sometimes you don't see it until your thread is derailed and we're talking about how ISD Decoy's hair is red, but his beard is black/brown.







I bet he dyes it.

I don't know why we should be talking about the ISD when we could be ruling them with an IRON FIST.

why would we be ruling them?
they are literally all that's keeping me from subjecting you to the wrath of my hangover.

You don't realize who you're talking to, so I'll let this go.

Oh? enlighten me then.

Freedom is overrated, there are greater men who simply know better whats best for you. Man can only free and happy if he is liberated from his freedom and all the chaos and is given structure, guidance and leadership.

This is not a troll, its an honest petition to promote a positive discussion on current forum policy against trolling. I enjoy posting on these forums as much as the other 5 people who still post here, and I think now that EvE is dead we should be able to post indescriminately, without abiding by any code of ethics or forum law.

What say ye?

You don't realize who you're talking to, so I'll let this go.
