I cannot believe that nobody else has posted here yet, however, this is what I would propose:
Killboard Linking - Open it up, so that we can properly post killmails, with full Names and Information, and allow linking to Killboards. Characters who appear blocked out in current killmails already come in and say "It's Me!" so I don't see the reason that this should be blocked any further.
Chatlogs - Permit full posting of information in chatlogs, as with killboards above, it's already being done. Characters are editing chatlogs to remove some information such as names and the like, however, everybody really knows who it is already, or those people are more than happy to 'step up' and admit it's them.
There will always be 'trolling', and by limiting the information that's posted, it's not really curbing it in any way, shape or form.

Allow full chatlogs with names to be posted, allow killboard links to be posted, and for the loe of god, disallow ******* alts from posting!
Seriously, its not that hard. Restricting NPC corp members just isn't enough. Alts, regardless if their technically in a player corp, need to be restricted from posting. Post with your main or don't post at all.

I'll certainly bring the points up but the reason these restrictions were put in the first place was down to complaints and the atmosphere fostered in C & P because of them.
Killboard linking is unlikely as they're not verifiable, easily manipulated and generally don't bring a good discussion.
Chatlogs for the same reason.
Posting pictures would be nice but is also a strain on our forum server so again, probably not going to happen.

Fix the word filter so words like the word to describe a tear in a ships hull or a crispy tastey salty snack don't get filtered out, I'd also like to use words like sc-ra-pe without being censored. That said, a ***** down on trolling maybe?

Edited by: PyroThraxus on 16/06/2008 17:19:47 IMHO, the subject of smack/troll posts need to be addressed. You can't open a post in C&P or any other forum on Eve-O with out seeing rude, or uncalled for posts, flames or trolls. Maybe some policy about such posts would invite the newer players in the game to post and become active in the community.
I don't post just because of this reason.
Maybe a "what mama always said" policy is in order. If you don't have anything nice/constructive to post, don't post anything at all.
Perhaps also a renewed policy on the punishment for these posts could help. First offence: Warning Second offence: Temp ban Third offence: Perma ban
Only my 2 cents. /me put on flame proof suit and helmet, I posted in C&P.
Ninja edit: Also some of the Sigs need to be addressed. What do pictures of scantly clad women (or men) have to do with EVE?

can we also have a 1-5 rating scale for threads with a pleasing encouraging "You rated this thread '5'! Great job, go hog wild!" ?  That aside, a garbage day for C+P would be pretty cool, but not really good business sense for CCP.

This. 
On a more-likely-to-happen note, While I know the killmail thing is easy to fake, I think posting killmails/chatlogs is one of the main parts of C&P. After all, the entire forum is built on bragging and showing off your exploits. The kms and logs are a crucial part of this. Right now, we can post anything as long as we edit out names, but half the time the victim is more than willing to share.
If a km/chatlog is faked and discovered, wouldn't that eliminate the poster's credibility? Wouldn't that ruin any future attempts at waving around one's e-peen? Isn't the whole point of single sharding that your actions reflect your reputation? Once you're identified as a killmail forger (and lets be honest, killboards are not hard to find) then you'll never be able to do it again without lots of 
I believe that naming and shaming people that deserve to be shamed via chatlogs and killmails is a very important part of C&P and I would like to see it become unmoderated.

Originally by: CCP Mitnal I'll certainly bring the points up but the reason these restrictions were put in the first place was down to complaints and the atmosphere fostered in C & P because of them.
By that token, the complaints against this argument also count, do they not? I'm certain that, even today, when people post in C&P and get a negative response, they either complain about it, or go post in a different forum and hardly return. It's still a community, pure and simple, and the fact that it's a community for the 'lowest form of player' (or so viewed) in EvE, still makes it viable.
Originally by: CCP Mitnal Killboard linking is unlikely as they're not verifiable, easily manipulated and generally don't bring a good discussion. Chatlogs for the same reason.
This doesn't change the fact that Killmails and chatlogs are being posted, albeit in an edited format. The editing doesn't make them any less proven, nor does it change the fact that they can be disputed at a moments notice. All we're doing now is changing names of victims, and inviting more "EvEMail me this guy's name!", which in itself, is (an albeit small) load on the game.
Look at posting a link to a Killboard, vs. posting pages upon pages of killmail-speak. It would also take up less space on the post, reduce strain, and make for a more 'visual' representation of the facts (or faked facts) thereof.

Well for one, how about just not letting posts go through at all if there is offensive content that you would ban somebody for. Say for example somebody were to post something like "u r ****-ing ****s! i will kill ur fukkin corp u ****-heads!". Then just don't let it get posted. Saves you the trouble of having to moderate it, saves us the trouble of having to deal with you moderating it badly.
On a related note, change the word filter. I tire of not being able to use the word cr-a-ck. Honestly, it's just taking PC to the extreme. I can use words like ass, damn, meth, sodomize, finger-bang, and a variety of others. But "*****"? Oh no! Not that.
And as mentioned before, give us a way to rate threads. If they fall below a certain level, then a mod can step in to look at it and possibly moderate or lock it. If there are no complaints from the readers, then there is no point in moderating or removing the post. Make the ratings public so people have to stand by their opinion. And hold them to the same requirement as COAD posts - no noob corps, show corp/alliance. Will it lead to people getting killed in-game for their forum antics? Probably. But is that really a bad thing?
And while I would like to see killmails and chatlogs allowed, I can see where that would lead to an endless cycle of chest-beating. Eventually degenerating into the cesspool of mediocrity that COAD is. And that is the very last thing that I would want to see happen.
And lastly - Originally by: PyroThraxus IMHO, the subject of smack/troll posts need to be addressed. You can't open a post in C&P or any other forum on Eve-O with out seeing rude, or uncalled for posts, flames or trolls.

More of a forum-wide suggestion but the ability to rate the quality of people's posts depending on content would be nice. Posts below a certain threshold are minimised, like on youtube and some other sites, which means you don't have to read through post after post of spam and flames.

QFT
"Criminals" posting on C&P may have different ideas on etiquette than other people, but those ideas do exist. The community tend to police themselves here, to a great extent, in that people's words and actions do have consequences in game. On that note:
I concur that alt posting is a problem. People posting with alts to flame people isn't really in the spirit of C&P, where the entire idea is to "man up". If someone wants to tell me that I suck at PvP, they usually do so behind the safety of an alt. This shouldn't be sanctioned in C&P. I should have the opportunity to make them eat their words in game :-)
In short, the moderation is heavy handed against material that I feel is conducive to discussion, and should really be reserved for alt posting and real life threats, and possibly TRULY offensive material.

That said, I have an even deeper respect for the truth. Your posts must be incomplete, because what you wrote doesn't seem true. I wouldn't expect you to outright lie, so therefore I'm missing something. But let us examine your points one-by-one.

Well, please show me where non-killboard, non-chatlog entry posts in C&P are "verifiable and tamper-proof". Since you are currently permitting both killmail content and chatlogs if the participants are redacted, then you need to argue that listing the participants/victims instigates poor discussion. I'm neither asserting nor disputing such a position, only pointing out what the existing rules seem to be indicating.
Originally by: CCP Mitnal Posting pictures would be nice but is also a strain on our forum server so again, probably not going to happen.
Eh? I believe that the strain is merely your forum software serving up a few bytes like "<img>blahblah</img>". The actual image needn't be on CCP's forum server, and actually shouldn't be, so the bandwidth ("strain") would be on the image server (eve-files.com, imageshack.net, flickr.com, ...)

Everything in this post.
Every altpost I've ever seen (even my own) has been a ****poast. I tend to post only with my main in C&P (when it's not banned) out of respect for the rest of the community. I feel that C&P should have the same restriction as CAOD - you must be in a corporation. I also feel that both in CAOD and here that restriction should be taken one step further - only real corporations, no altcrap corporations like THE INTERNET. or Forum Trolls Inc.
The moderation in C&P lately has been a huge issue. In the last few days of my forum ban, I haven't seen a single thing that was interesting, at all, except for the El'tar thread and what happens? You idiots ban El'tar (again). When it's more fun reading CAOD than C&P, somebody's screwing the pooch. (hint: it's the moderation team).

A minor alteration to the rules (my change in red below):
Quote: The posting of killmails is permitted, however following criteria must be met:
a) The name of the victim must be removed or covered up. Exception: the victim's name may remain if the poster *is* the victim. b) The killmail must be posted along with constructive text/content. This means no posting new threads with simply a killmail in it without a comment.

I don't know why you need so many rules, frankly. So what if some posters don't like the atmosphere in here? We, the criminals and the punishers, like it. We like to read funny chat logs and LOL at stupid killmails. Does it matter if they're fake? Does it matter if people cry?
I would ask for a new rule. As in CAOD, make people post with players in real (and therefore war-deckable) corporations.
Here's an innovative idea: Let's take a minor security status hit for every post we make in C&P. Or alternatively, disallow posting in this forum except for players above -1.0 (who cannot have bounties placed on them).
Then anybody in this channel can say whatever asinine thing they like, but anyone who reads it has at least two ways to punish the poster. . Seeking frigateers!

How about a pirate forum where only chars that are of Outlaw status are allowed to post.
Would be great to be able to have pirate discussions without endless flaming from victim alts.

You can't open a post in C&P or any other forum on Eve-O with out seeing rude, or uncalled for posts, flames or trolls. Maybe some policy about such posts would invite the newer players in the game to post and become active in the community.
I don't post just because of this reason.
Maybe a "what mama always said" policy is in order. If you don't have anything nice/constructive to post, don't post anything at all.
Perhaps also a renewed policy on the punishment for these posts could help. First offence: Warning Second offence: Temp ban Third offence: Perma ban
Only my 2 cents. /me put on flame proof suit and helmet, I posted in C&P.
Ninja edit: Also some of the Sigs need to be addressed. What do pictures of scantly clad women (or men) have to do with EVE?
Reflection Edit: Also including posts that have nothing to do with Eve. I.E. I just read a post that included a recipe for bananna nut bread.
To review our current warning and ban system you can visit the December 2007 blog here.
Each post has a report button above it, if you feel that a post is against the rules or offends you, this is the quickest way to get it dealt with by a member of the Community Team.
The same goes for any off-topic posts or non-EVE related signatures.
Originally by: Dosgar More of a forum-wide suggestion but the ability to rate the quality of people's posts depending on content would be nice. Posts below a certain threshold are minimised, like on youtube and some other sites, which means you don't have to read through post after post of spam and flames.
Given the popularity of this I'll forward it on. However, as the CSM were told, changing the forums will take time this is not a quick fix and we are actively looking at upgrading the structure.
Alt posting is something I'll forward for discussion but the issue of long-standing alts and that whilst criminals may wish to "man up", there are a number of perps such as corp thieves or scammers that may find their task more difficult because of this. Not all piracy is at the end of a gun.
Originally by: MailDeadDrop A minor alteration to the rules (my change in red below):
Quote: The posting of killmails is permitted, however following criteria must be met:
a) The name of the victim must be removed or covered up. Exception: the victim's name may remain if the poster *is* the victim. b) The killmail must be posted along with constructive text/content. This means no posting new threads with simply a killmail in it without a comment.
I'll add this in, although it is the policy we go by.

I'm new to this forum, so I don't have any experience or context to judge the value of the proposals under discussion, but I have to admit I'm confused by all the concerns expressed by moderators. What did you expect would be the content of a forum section entitled "Crime and Punishment"? Attempts to water down the content by imposing anonymity and forced "constructive commentary" seems to take away exactly what I would imagine most posters want in the first place: bragging rights. To eviscerate these because of a lack of verifiability begs the question why it was ever allowed in the first place?
My suggestion would be to re-evaluate the purpose of this forum section. If you want to support the notion of a forum for bragging rights, then either put into place a non-hackable mechanism for ensuring accountabililty or accept that you're going to get unverifiable comments that are going to lead inevitably toward contention. If you cannot guarantee authenticity, then you are necessarily inviting contention.
This is really just another illustration of the difference between anonymity and authentication. Anonymity breeds a lack of accountability which breeds anarchy and lawlessness. Authentication shines the white hot spotlight of truth on any discussion. My thoughts, anyway. |

Personaly I would like to see posting only with Main's in the C and P forum.
I would also like the ability to rate the quality of a players post. This would then give players a general rating (hopefully displayed) and may wake some poeple up to the fact they need to improve the quality of their own content.

This is a forum meant for debating, bragging, humiliating etc etc, it's not as if people don't find these, however they have to go search battleclinic for themselves etc when they could have just klicked a link.
* Let us paste chat logs with real names
Again, it's not hard for someone to find out who the chat log is about, it's just more effort than it need be, you're not protecting anyone, just annoying.
* Set up a separate forum for mercenaries and mercenary wannabes

There's a difference - authentic Garmon threads and threads OP'd by certain of his disciples are actually entertaining and funny. Hammerfall threads and all of the spam associated with them are decidedly not funneh!
My suggestion (since my last one got deleted as being not important enough for consideration) is to have Mitnal return to using RED text when he moderates. I was just reading some threads from January of this year and his red-text moderation was much more 'evil empire' in feel than the contemporary sunshine-yellow moderation.

I havent really looked at the bounty hunting before--seemed to be totally useless if all the normal rules apply. The job aspect would seem to be a joke as you cant really hunt anyone in empire should they go there unless they happen to be red with everyone. Let's face it---this is a game tilted toward the bad guys. :)

This, except I wont pod you.
Although killmails and chatlogs can obviously be edited, given that crime and punishment is usually about killing something, or stupid smacktalk it seems really silly to not allow killmails and chatlogs to be posted with real names. As kublai mentioned, if someone wants to find the stuff, they will, but it would be easier to just link and would probably cause more threads to have quality rather than the "edit the names nub" posts that currently pop up when someone accidently posts an unedited chatlog.

I think it would be quite interesting if a character's security status could be displayed along side their character race/corp/alliance etc.
I really think alt posting needs to go away. As for the rest (chat logs, killmails etc.) I agree with what has been said above.
Also, this forum needs to be for *pirates*. Not mercs, not bounty hunters. You don't see pirates trolling the mission running forum (much, lol) do you?

Originally by: CCP Mitnal I'll certainly bring the points up but the reason these restrictions were put in the first place was down to complaints and the atmosphere fostered in C & P because of them.
Killboard linking is unlikely as they're not verifiable, easily manipulated and generally don't bring a good discussion.
Chatlogs for the same reason.
So let me see if i have this right we give you all the things we would like and you then come back and tell us why we cant have any of them ? Posting pictures would be nice but is also a strain on our forum server so again, probably not going to happen.
Alt posting is of obvious concern and we have an idea of how to get a handle on it but people creating alt-corps to troll, there's little we can do within the current rules to stop them from creating the corps, so that's likely to remain a reactive solution to whatever they post.

Update:
Killboard links and chatlogs. Already discussed in post 6, they cause negativity and non-constructive posts, this is not what we're aiming for. Ditto pod or post.
Thunderdome - banning players will not be made a public spectacle.
Posting pictures - would have to be forum wide.
Alt posting/security standing dependant posting - no alt posting would mean an end to some types of posts such as scam ones that have been popular in the past. Making the forum -10 only would limit the sub forum to so few players to make it not worthwhile. Any other limiting such as -5.1 would be arbitrary and not what we attempt to do with forums. In addition this is both a crime and punishment sub forum, part of the attraction is surely victim threads? Creating a forum for those with a negative standing would require one for those with a positive one too, we are not looking to add sub forums currently.
Rating posters is another one that would be forum-wide.
I will return to using evil red to moderate if it this pleases you
The forum description has caused a lot of angst, we'll gladly take suggestions over how you'd like it to read.
Character's security status shown in post - possibly a forum-wide change, requires more research on our part.
Look forward to meeting some of you at Fanfest to discuss this further!

I understand your reasoning, I think it's rather silly though. Take a look around. Constructive posts are a rarity in this forum. There's so many ridiculously badly thought out OP's and so many comments that are meaningless.
As kublai mentioned, if someone wants to find the unedited killmails/chatlogs ir killboard links and they're hosted anywhere on the net - they'll find it anyway. If we were allowed to post them, it makes them much more accessible which is a good thing.
From a content perspective, it seems like a silly choice (especially seeing as the level of constructive/legible posts here is so low already) and one that's done heavy handed but if that's the way it's going to be I guess people will just stick with doing their own research.

please do not take away C&P from the alts. Although alt posting may seem bad to some. Other alts are used for scam... as well are victims. Also CCP's way of detecting alts for COAD is no NPC or no under 10member corps.
There are quite a few small pirate corps under 10 members, as well pirates that stay in NPC corps. Not to mention highsec pirates that have to maintain a high security status so we can yarr at will.
Just saying. ---- People Say Im paranoid because I have a gun, I say I dont have to be paranoid because I have a gun.

1) No spammage. Seriously. It is terrible some days. Ban multiple offenders.
2) Alt posting as op only and only when the identity of the poster needs to be protected, e.g. them looking for mercs / partners in crime, or reporting scams / baits. Otherwise, post on your main.
3) No restrictions to sec status etc when posting. (Hello, it's Crime and punishment, I belong here too. )
4) Any thread that degenerates to pure "did not, did too" about blobbing, docking games, and other standard smack, will be locked. Threads of corporations smacktalking each other are fine as long as the posts add something new.
5) Allow chat logs and killmail links. Yes, they can be forged. So what? Everyone (sensible) knows they can faked. You cannot police people from lying, and km / chat faking is just a form of lying. They don't lead to quality discussion? So what, do doesn't 95 percent of the rest of the stuff in the forums - just see point #4.

Originally by: CCP Mitnal In common with the other forums, Crime & Punishment will be having a bit of a spring-clean in the near future.
Included in this will be a review of the rules for Crime & Punishment, so if you have any suggestions or any sites or threads you wish to highlight to be added to a resource thread, now is your chance.
Please post below with any rule change, new rule submission or resource.
Mr. Mitnal
Please do not open up killboard linking, or relaxing rules regarding killmails. It's already mundane for most eve players to google players, alliances, corporations for killboards. The only real interest in Crime and Punishment in regards to killmails is only the gravity of loss associated to a kill.
Such loss can be fused easily into an attractive story, without the official document at hand. A story about some Ibis carrying a multi-billion isk module through 0.0 and going afk at a stargate. The plot really is about how someone got lucky.
Crime and Punishment encourages the propaganda machine, just as much as other portions of this forum. This will often result in undue hardship on the victim, or even the perpetrator if their actions aren't all that impressive to others on the forum.
On the other hand, I do think "pod or post" is a humorous antic and every time I see one I chuckle a bit. While it might be true they don't contribute much to the forum, I do argue it does hint on the real issue and that's the might of the assailant. I don't think they are as much to embarass the victim as they are to advertise and qualify aggression and dominance of a particular group in an area (i.e. a startup pirate corp might be inclined to have their first victims 'pod or post', to get their name out there). Maybe "pod or post" posts should be required to contain the system the even occured and what group is associated to the demand. Maybe even a new forum for real life Pod or Post submissions, which can be used tactfully by anti-pirates to monitor aggressive trends. It's worth noting that some "Pod or Post" posts, might be a result of good nature on both parties, in the event that the victim really doesn't have the funds to cover the ransom; so the pod or post becomes an acceptable alternative.
In short, I favor tighter rules regarding posting killmails/fanmails etc. But the Pod or Post posts are a treat.

Originally by: Tchell Dahhn I cannot believe that nobody else has posted here yet, however, this is what I would propose:
Killboard Linking - Open it up, so that we can properly post killmails, with full Names and Information, and allow linking to Killboards. Characters who appear blocked out in current killmails already come in and say "It's Me!" so I don't see the reason that this should be blocked any further.
Chatlogs - Permit full posting of information in chatlogs, as with killboards above, it's already being done. Characters are editing chatlogs to remove some information such as names and the like, however, everybody really knows who it is already, or those people are more than happy to 'step up' and admit it's them.
There will always be 'trolling', and by limiting the information that's posted, it's not really curbing it in any way, shape or form.
Good points, I think names should still be secret though, else they'd never allow killmail posting. Killboards will probably be a bit of a stretch, hilarious as some instances can be.
Chatlogs , I want them too, but still only OP's name. Reason for limitation is the same as above. ------------------ Recruiting..

Tell us your ideas and ask for criticism, don't pretend we get a vote when our vote doesn't matter.

6. more of a forum wide thing, mod list of how many people etch mod has banned and hours they work so we know when it is OK to flame/troll the forums and when to be careful

here's what would make crime & punishment better:
1) walking to the devbox and (metaphorically) punch someone (ingame) until SMURGLEBLASTER gets seeded (don't hurt anyone but be convincing!!) 2) steal all the dev's rhum to coax them into seeding SMURGLEBLASTER (let's call this plan B) 3) mod's text in red is cool
be thirsty 
maybe as xmas gift to the outlaws (-5.0) only?
these are the real critical issues imo! |

you could sticky individual advert threads for merc corps, dunno what the criteria would be, e.g how you'd judge whether a merc corp was good enough for the sticky...
you could do the same for pirate corps, giving them each a thread to brag about the latest comedy yar, and let them post killmails/chat logs in them. that way it would be easy enough for the innocent un-corrupted amougnst us to stear clear and not fill the dev inboxs with complaints... could they be automated to clean them of all replies everytime the title page was updated to stop you having to go 50 pages in to find comments on the current topic?
as the above 2 suggestions would give the common occupants of this forum a more defined outlet, you could then get away with being abit more strict (seems what your looking to do) over the type of general threads poasted? e.g just lock and delete pointless spam
it would take a dev or two awhile to get this established, and agin i'm not sure how you'd judge you was 'worthy' of sticky and who wasn't
just my 2 pieces of eight

AS i am an alt poster i wish to make it clear that WHO i am in the game is of no concern to those that post in forums. Game playing personas, and seperate forum personas do not effect or negate opinions offered on forums, and allows for those players whos corps have stringent rules concerning forums post. A system of morality which is based on relative emotional values is a mere illusion, a thoroughly vulgar conception which has nothing sound in it and nothing true. |

If you don't agree with your current corporation's policy on forums, find a new corp.

Just saying.
There are pirates that aren't flashy red? Me thinks they aren't pirates.
Anywho, I'm throwing in a vote for sec status to be displayed (why not?) and KM links being allowed. We like making fun of people who happen to be less fortunate than us... hell, we like making fun of ourselves if we do something really stupid. It's part of the game. You want verified, I think the green box around a kill on battleclinic equates to verified by api, but someone would have to check that to make sure.
As for chat logs, yeah, they can't be verified, and if they are obnoxiously long no one reads them anyways; try just limiting them a bit (any pointless chat is removed, and only the relevant parts are left). Yeah, it means mods would actually have to read the post and make a decision, but I think you guys can handle it. Again, we like making fun of stupid people... sorry, people who aren't as capable of carrying on a normal conversation without turning to threats of their "Titan flying main" or tears of "I hope you feel better, because your mother hated you" .

Edited by: Sanka Cofie on 20/12/2008 19:29:00 [edit cuz I changed my mind on kb-linking. would be nice. but can live without it.]
I think there should be a button that forum mods can press which will deduct 25M isk from a posters account and give it to the thread starter.
This button should be available on all forums to be pressed whenever someone responds to a thread without bothering to read a single post in it, especially failure to read the OP.
This happens in pretty much every thread and the "Read The Damned Posts" button would quickly limit the number of inane posts from people who feel compelled to reply to a thread but not to actually read any of it.

Edited by: Matrix Skye on 20/12/2008 22:41:01 Insulting, demeaning, e-peen waving, ridiculing new players, bashing different playstyles, griefing, taunting, etc, etc, is 100% of what's wrong with these forums.
Allowing killmails to be posted with names is just another way to add insult to the already injured. C&P is especially a breeding ground for taunting and bullying. If it was done tastefully or with no ill-intentions it'd be a different story. But mostly it's done with the intent to ridicule and taunt.
I think if there was a different maturity level among us it'd also be different. C&P is no where near ready to be allowed to police itself or to ease up on any rules.
And yes, I know I bully bullies here in the forums. If C&P wasnt so riddled with bullies, take my word, I wouldn't do what I do.

Edited by: Eudamidas on 20/12/2008 23:43:34 There is no way to enforce maturity, reasonable post's get shot down by the 'forum warriors', little clique's etc...
Best way to improve forums? Remove them or mod them far more heavily, bring in squelch bans (1-2 hour long etc) for people who bring absolutley nothing useful, or shoot down useful posts.
But use moderaters with common sense, don't need ******s, people with a sense of humour who can see when something is funny, or when something is uncalled for.....
Posting suggestions when drunk is genius btw~

Personally I'd like more/better control on sh!tposting, and not just a slap on the hand but ban all accounts from that user. This doesn't only go for C&P ofcourse. The idiot-noise to signal ratio is far too high. This isn't 4chan, it's a gameforum and CCP should take better care of their portal to new and existing customers.

M8 I left for you to reread the part of my post you demonstrated not grasping. my reason for using an alt is my own, and has nothing to do with any corp. Another reason for a poster on c&p could well be criminal anonimity, you know "dont want the goody two shoes after me" kind thing...not all pirates care for limelight. Another reason may be the poster is a goody two shoes and doesnt want the criminals after him/her. Many reason to allow alt posting, so far i have only read one for not which seems to be widespread :

I'd like to see stricter moderation when it comes to insults and name-calling.
I don't mind people being rude or making fun of each other, Eve is a harsh place after all and it is okay if this carries over into the forums. Insulting each other however does not contribute to that atmosphere, it's just uncivilized and stupid. Crack down on the simple minded beings who repeatedly resort to this, please.

I kinda like C&P the way it is, I rarely post here but it is the first one I read when I am bored at work. Some of the trolls are hilarious, hate to see them stopped. I mean, if you want to be treated well you don't go into the dirty bar down the street with all the bikes parked out front, but if you wanna see some b bs, get drunk and pick a fist fight it is the place you are looking for.

maybe should just renamed C&P to: "Crime, we laugh at Victims"

I see lots of anti-alt sentiment here and it concerns me. How do you define an alt and how does CCP decide who the alt is? one poster per account? skill point limit? member of a corp or alliance? no matter what I can still get in and I am most certainly an ALT. And no matter what method you use you take a chance of not letting someone post who is a 'MAIN. I just can not concieve how it would work.
