Originally by: Xtro 2 Sorry if my point wasnt clear, i meant that if i posted on eve-files (and i have) and my image was changed to something else, is that my fault?
How many people here do use eve-files or somethign similar, tis just not something youd think of when you link to the file, im 100% sure my pictures are in a safe place but until this post i wouldnt have thought twice about where my pictures are hosted or that someone may change them.
In the end its still a hotlink to a picture that i havent hosted myself in a place that i have no futher control over.
Ginger was just unlucky, very unlucky idd.
yes unlucky, but the fact that the guy who changed it then asked for him to be banned for the picture is inexcusable
basically what this boils down to...
ginger is banned for posting a hotlink
the hoster is guilty of displaying the obscene content and then attempting to get someone banned for it.
it's discusting tbh
so how do you know that it was him who petitioned it? the amount of crap you guys have spewed out it could be any of several hundred ppl who dont like you and who saw the image.

yes it would be your fault for displaying it in your bio ingame. on the other hand if you download the image from eve-files and host it on your personal webspace then nobody but you can change it.
you are responsible for what is shown in your bio not a webspace hoster who is ****ed at you stealing bandwith.
although chribba's eve-files is well moderated you shouldnt **** him off though as he can change your pics.
read this slowly... it may help.

the very same guy who hosts the picture asked for banning in a thread about it. go figure...

So why did gingewinge think it was the duty of someone else to host and supply bandwidth ?
its gm`s bio and his responsibilty for its contents
If I run a site with images for public or private viewing , why cant I change them as and when I feel like . ( to clarify I am not involved in this incident )
About 7-8 years ago people playing planetarium linked images i was hosting as there galaxy pics , this created huge amounts of traffic , after asking galaxy commanders to stop linking with no effect , I changed the pics to unacceptable pics and got some people banned ( i got a warning ).
gm really was stupid to link to that pic without it being on a site he could control or trust.

hotlinking is not a bannable offence m8
changing a image you know is displayed in game to something bannable then asking for that person to be banned is.

difference is tho, chribba sounds like a top lad, i doubt he'd change the picture to something obsene, if it was me i'd replace the picture also, but for something to make that person look an idiot (ie: something funny or sarcastic).
But still, its all done and dusted, whatever our opinions, ginge was efficiently done over, i cant see what could be said to change that, the threads more like consoling the family of a deceased member, lots of "im sorry thats bad" etc, but we here cant do anything about it.

so where does the justification come from for posting that the image he changed offended him and the personw ith it in his bio should be banned? you're saying thats perfectly fine? ive never met ginger, i dont care who he is or who people say he is. but anyone can spot when something has gone "over the line". and this makes the line look like a dot.
FYI, there are legitmate places sanctioned by CCP where "things can be discussed" Signature removed, please avoid using images involving relgious symbols like that. -Ivan K |

depends on what i did to create a bannable offence... of course... i mean how hard is this?
i would even feel sorry for ginger if i knew him, no question. but this doesnt change the facts.
oh and tiller: changing the contents of the picutre isnt an exploit, but just very tough metagaming. and as i already said, as you already admitted on logging to save your pod (and not to have a walk or anything RLey) youre the last one to complain.

exactly, how could it offend him, he was the one hosting it and put it there for one purpose only. It's crazy...

I've never even seen any of you thunder****s, so don't try the "lol i kill j00 lol" argument.
It's a lame trick to pull on Ginger, but he asked for it. All annoying, pompous ("Number one PvPer" my ass) people in EVE need to be knocked down a notch now and then. Although, I'd have thought Ginger's remarkable carrier losses are doing that nicely, but that's beside the point.
I approve of this.

ginger is one of the few pilots I know who uses a carrier daily in pvp, hence the losses...
most carrier guys sit shaking behind a pos shield or within 5m of a station...
if you have not lost a few carriers, then you don't even deserve to fly one imho as you don't take enough risks to warrant it's use.

CCP can't ban someone for changing an image on their own hosting service
Ginger was hotlinking (ie stealing bandwidth) Changing images to obscene things because people are stealing your bandwidth is a common practice.
It's Gingers fault. Done deal.

Giner shot at an Alt of mine once. He missed. THHHPTTHHHH
Other than that I really don;t know much about him TBH.
However,
And assuming tiller's position is correct (which I have no reason to believe it is not)
Sure linking a pic from a different host may be unwise. But that's not really the issue. It's an issue of intent. He never intended to have a banable pic in his bio and I doubt he ever really thought that this could happen. I wouldn't have.
Sounds like CCP has the info they need so hopefully it will get handled soon. _______________________________________________

Am I the only one who thinks this is bull****? Ginger had nothing to do with the "new" picture which was replaced with old one, hence CCP banning HIM for something someone else did. Sure, the link was in GingerŠs bio but the person behind that account didnt do anything wrong, and I really hope there is evidence proving that the picture were actually replaced, because in my opinion CCP should really unban Ginger.
Btw, I donŠt know Ginger or anyone related to this issue.

if this is really the case its a sad day for eve :( im not a big ginger fan as he can be rather annoying when smacking in local. But being banned for someone else changing a picture URL is just not right.
I hope CCP reconsider this ban, and do the normal thing and nerf the bio not the player.

Seems like Ginger was pretty much pwned by the host owner.
It's actually ginger's fault, and it should serve him as a lesson not to use other people's bandwith or hotlinkin without permission, and more important, not puting links that you canot control into YOUR OWN BIO.
So quit whining like a carebear, its Gingers own fault. _______________________

Well, the punishment for using others bandwith shouldnŠt be a ban from a game.

you still dont get it do you? the website hoster is not accountable for any images that ginger minger steals and links to. if he finds out someone who does link his images without credit or asking permission he are fully within his rights to delete or change the picture to whatever he wants.
as for the exploit argument, silly as ccp has no jurisdiction over the website only for what the person owning the account displays and the player displaying the pic is accountable for his bio not the website owner.

Everything but the facts are conspiracy...
Ginger had a hotlink in his bio leading to bannable content, his bio, his problem, his ban... unfortunate, but let the lesson be learnt.
Yup, I'm an alt... if only you could see my main... he's so strong and tough! |
