Seriously after reading only 3 or 4 topics that are popular I have to wonder which is worse
League of Legends 10 year olds bitching every 5 seconds.. Or EVE Online grown adults bashing everything that comes across the table, not telling but EXPLAINING to people that they're ****, and continuing to damn near tell people to commit suicide. Like wow.
Y'all are some of the worst pieces of **** I've seen in a very long time. Enjoy your dying game with a very very flawed F2P model. I won't explain why, most of you forum lurkers already know why but refuse to acknowledge it. It's like watching hillary supporters when someone who likes trump brings up the major flaws of her as president.
Suddenly there's hyena's drooling and yipping at their body trying to tear flesh from it.
lol You all need Jesus or something. And I don't even believe in that but you really really need it.

I've played an awful lot of MMO's and tbh, what you are describing happens in ALL of them. There is no exception, the wording may be a little more polite in some than others, but forums are notorious place where you find the most outspoken users.
Good luck finding a game where the forums don't have trolls. |

On a serious note, the "honest" threads rarely gets trolled. If you try to get advice and write a post in a normal manner, instead of a whine/rant, people will usually help you.
But GD is infested with Alphas asking for more free stuff, threads with people wanting highsec to be even more safe or whine/rant threads like this one. Obviously people will troll, cause these threads are garbage anyway. |

If these are toxic forums with acidic people then I want to know what game you came from. This is nothing like the WOTB forums (yes, I am a mobile device peasant) when they have their weekly flamewars and I can guess why; this is not a twitch reflex game, you need to have brain cells to be effective (hence why I am not) and so normally the people here are less bad then elsewhere. Or maybe it's just that they joke about carrying around prostitutes, drugs, slaves and frozen corpses in their cargo holds and so do not really feel much need to try to look tough by being needlessly hostile on a forum. I have never in my couple of months of reading these forums seen anything that qualifies as a real flamewar (sorry the best you can do is more like a flame paintball war then the ones I have run across elsewhere, you actually try to debate each other rather then just call each other names and post things that will get you banned from the forum and you don't have the shear frequency of a true flame war either: 2300 posts in three hours is a pretty good sized one and usually started by an alt created for that purpose). It may also be the whole single shard universe thing, after all if you anoy someone enough they can just hunt you down and blow your stuff up. |

This needs repeating.
Genuine questions for help get helpful replies. Trolls/clown or idiots who want a new game they don't understand to be changed to suit their personal views get trolled and laughed at. |

Forums are designed to be like this. Inadvertent design perhaps, but that's why they are like this.
EVE forums follow the standard 1990's design, that you can see the bones of in other old MMOs, like Runescape.
What happens is the forums are seen as a shop front, and that shop front has to be shiny all the time, so as to give a good impression.
I suspect someone in Marketing came up with this idea.
Forums are not shop fronts, forums are organic wild places.
So what happens next is some forum policing is created, in order to maintain the shop front.
Then you end up with forums pages that are full of locked and moved threads. People being banned and so forth.
Which is the exact opposite of what the intent is, but is what the design does.
A lot of the policing is negative. We get the ability to Like posts but that's about the only positive thing on forums. So people aren't rewarded for being positive, we are rewarded for negative behaviours. The most ironic being, becoming a forum police officer, not sure if that happens with EVE forums, but it seems common practice to reward policing behaviours of others.
Then someone comes along and invents a more flexible forum that allows creativity and, bingo, everyone goes there to talk.
Then the game makers follow.
It removes the whole pressure from game makers of that silly idea of maintaining a tidy shop front.
Which is why social media has taken over as the important forums .
Things would be different with different forum design, but that would take more money, and that would take more time, and have you seen how fervent players can get? They scary.
It's much easier to handball the talking to players bit to someone else, and sort of limp along with old forums as a tradition.
We can just dismiss the forum goers as bitter vets and let them play with each other, it keeps them distracted.
Personally. I love forums, it's where I spend most of my game time in any game. They are intense and interesting dimensions.

Well, to be perfectly fair, it is rather difficult for a big enough pussy to know what going hard is, as there's simply too much slack involved. |

I blame the AG's for all the hate. Ban them and ban their children and their childrens children. Always deriding and questioning our Saviour James315. We should have the right to gank and humiliate people who don't follow our gamestyle in peace.
If you question this post you are prejudice and transdophinphobic. Go gank your self, I do reg.
I hope to find my man vagina through the teachings of James315.

If you criticise my posts you are just being prejudice against my Transdolphin sexuality.

You and me both, brother. I have been lurking on EVE's forums for over seven years now. Ive played maybe two hours of the game, got confused when Aura (?) was supposed to generate a skillbook into my inventory but didn't, and decided to fly as far as I could in my noobship before getting killed... Ended up orbiting a station in Fountain, and had to announce my presence before being killed.
... The forums are much more entertaining. And as a bonus, you have people that refuse to believe that you do not know what you're doing in the game, because you can speak the terminology and lingo from having absorbed it. |

I mean, yeah, it can be toxic. This is a PVP game afterall, and PVP games, especially MMOs attract some of the worst kinds of people. Just go into Black Desert Online and watch general chat for about an hour or two, you'll see what I mean. But that doesn't have to be your experience. We have the power in EVE to tailor the game exactly the way we want it to be. You can't control what other people do, but you can limit your exposure to toxicity and how you react to it. |

I like forums. Seen some extremes. Tidy, well moderated storefront, ones. Close-knit likes with super civilized debates. And the very loosely moderated babelic rage-arenas of some multiplayer games on the edge.
This one isn't as polarized as the above ones. Yet.. compared to how many work-hours gets destroyed every night in New Eden.. I'm very surprized that this forum is such a nice and welcoming place. Bashing seems tasteful and rarely needlessly overdone. Few discrete stabs, looks like nudging from afar. Strong emotions often well suppressed - seemingly rather by common consensus, and not by the moderation.
Of course I'm new, so those are just impressions rather than anything.
This place is far from the roughest or the nicest forums I saw. But if I consider that the community revolves around a sandbox of financial and literal backstabbing with workhours, digital and actual monies on the line... you are too nice if anything.
They say Alpha clones are only for trying stuff. I say it's just the Hard Mode.
