The end of my troll was meanwhile meant to say: PS. I agree with your point, although I think the main problem with the forum are all the whines. There should be a different forum at the bottom of the page for them.

This thread delivers slightly.
But as you're an adult, grown up, mature user of the forum, I'll add something constructive: Stop trolling.

The first over 9000 pages of every non-whine forum would be threads with "Moved to brats n stuff" under them.
Just accept it, it's not like there aren't serious discussions going on here, they're just rare and you have to find them. If you read the forum a bit, you'll recognize some people that pretty much always post constructively, and if you see a thread they've posted in, it's probably worth reading. All the other stuff: Well, it's nice for a giggle at work (just like this thread is now), but they're not gonna ban 99% (attn: made-up statistic) of the player base active on the forums.
That said, time to call it a day at work \o/

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for disallowing alts (on the same account) on the forums and ingame, but:
- It's never gonna happen - Even if it would happen, it DEFINATELY won't happen if you post a whine thread on the forums.
Now, calling it a day seriously. :)

If trolling/flaming could be channeled somehow, that would be an improvement.
However, that is for the biggest part the responsibility of the entire community. We as palyers make this forum what it is. I have to chuckle sometimes when reading these forums and references are made to for example WOW (that seems to be a populair one, especialy in the Rookie channel I could remember). It's not that the EVE forums are that much better tbh.
The only reasonable general forum I have seen sofar in an MMO is LOTRO (Lord of the Rings Online). That forum is ahead to others with a landslide.

Well thats the problem, we have a large amount of users in a single alliance who have admited to wanting to run this game into the ground... its quite difficult to combat said users without enforcing some general rules... If i had my way i would ban the entire group but fortunatley for them i wont get my way any time soon... ________________ REVIVAL

Dear OP...
Given CCP's track record on impartiality, it might not be the best idea to give the mods more power.
Also, I think if you look there's a post by DS from a long time ago about a forum feature allowing you to block players so you never see their posts. This might work better, as it allows you to ban players from your own personal EVE forums.
Finally, if you don't like these boards, go to SHC or something else like that.

Its not as if its a secret - Goonswarm have created alot of the problems on this forum.
They have admited to wanting to destroy peoples gameplay and have (with the kugutsumen incident) said they will destroy this game... I hope CCP are reinforcing their procedures against certain attacks from the goons, threadnaughts anyone?
Quite simply enforce stringent rules on these forums and send them packing because quite simply they are annoying the hell out of alot of people - not to target a single group ofcorse.

They're alts. If you ban them, the 'main' just makes more.
i.e. Alts cannot truly be banned. -

well generally people use alts on their main account meaning all 3 of their characters are banned... if they use an alternate account then thats one account down - if they continue their other account gets banned too... although i can see your point, an additional feature needs to be added to see which character is a main... ________________ REVIVAL

If the second account has a 'real' alt, at least we'd know who the alt is, which is a start. If it was a second account of purely forum alts, their powerlevel is too high, and we cannot defeat them. -

I mean the ability to mark a single character per account as the 'main' of that account - i dont t hink CCP should allow people to see who's an alt of who until the servers close... ________________ REVIVAL

Goonswarm?? I have seen movies on youtube of them recruiting and such. Also a presentation on fanfest Goonfleet presentation a while back.
I can't imagine that people who are that active in the game, and in no doubt must like to play also, want to destroy it. Maybe their statement is that they want to 'destroy' the settled establishment? However harassing the forums, if that is what they do, is just childlike imo.

Oh no, it has been said on multiple times, if i could post logs from their internal forum here i would... suffice to say rather than lose they would prefer to kill the entire game... its the goon way! ________________ REVIVAL

Very true, maybe the oldest character on each account should be designated as the 'main' maybe they already have this? ________________ REVIVAL

I'll be honest here, I have about 4 different forum post characters, and I post with all 4 depending on circumstance. Some are known traders, some are known in ships and modules or on the pve side, some are known on the pvp side. They may be "alts", but for the most part, each one serves a "main" function, and is better able to post on the forums with the experience and function that they were created for.
I'm sure more than one person may be on the same boat. Many times, if I were to use a different character for a specific post, calls of "STFU you don't know what you are talking about" and "use your main" or "you don't even do X Y or Z so why are you posting" get made, and unfortunately, having a "forum main" or "alt" or what have you designation would actually take away from serious posts in those cases.
Yes, we have to deal with lame trolling / posting / kiddie behavior, but after a while you just get used to ignoring the kiddies anyway.
Im not saying that alts shouldnt be allowed to post, my aim is to have 'mains' designated and all other characters on the account do not go through the 'warning' processes they just get banned outright for breaking any rule... whereas the 'main' gets a warning etc...
It would curb alot of the problems on the forums imo. ________________ REVIVAL

Yes and no. it's incredibly easy to get a warning on the eve-o forums. That's the problem. Even when you are posting legitimately.
I do think your idea has some merit though, as long as it's only the mods who can see the main / alt flags. My issue is not that alts could / couldn't post, but that seeing posts made by "alts", even when they are legitimate, will sometimes detract from a serious post. And I have characters I use for serious issues in the POS categories, for example, that aren't necessarily "mains", and wouldn't be tagged as such. -----
