Yes this is a Mittani thread, but at the same time it isn't.
Does CCP report to any government/authorities people who makes threats of killing themself IRL? CCP you have the credentials of a player that does this, and you should report to national authorities suicidal people who directly say they will kill themselves. I know that in alot of countries every person, no matter what profession or confidentiality agreement you have, is allowed to report about stuff that can prevent loss of human lives (among others).
I'm not read up on the current situation, but I banning the offender will not solve the issue of suicidal persons. I would ask you to please report anyone that claims to be suicidal, and possibly are, to his authorities.
CCP, you don't need to confirm or deny that you are doing this, of obvious reasons. But, as a guy that lost family members to suicide, I urge you to not pat yourself on the back just because you take action against the offender, but also to take actions to try prevent said persons to commit suicide.
Eve is a social game. CCP must take social responsibility, and you might do this already.

Yay, it's one of these threads again.
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'no.' |

They did actually say in cases like that they'll contact the authorities appropriate for the player. So yeah, they do! Think it was posted somewhere in the dev blog attached thread. |

Move on buddy :) This is my way of moving on. I think we all lose loved ones in one way or the other, but prevent people from departing this world too soon is something that is a good thing.
I don't think suicidal people is possible for us "normal" to understand.
I don't know about the OJ simpson trial or what not, and can't see the similarities. |

Sorry to hear of your loss
The 'contact the local authorities' is really just corporate damage control, and complete BS
can you imagine it
[in Icelandic] Hi this is Iceland calling the romanian police
[in Romanian]Sorry what I can't undestend what your saying
[in Icelndic]Hey what did you say
*click*
Back at CCP HQ
worker - Hey should we hire a Romanian interpreter someone could be dying
manager - Do I look like we are made of money, we did what we could |

To be fair, the original question was actually pretty legitimate - most games do have contingencies for this, you know! Imagine Blizzard for instance had quite a few things come up with Diablo 2 on hardcore... |

Alot of countries have help lines for suicidal persons. It can be christian or muslim, it can be humanitarian. You can also call the police or social services etc.
I understand that you may think it's invasion of your private life if CCP report you to any authorities if you are suicidal. The exact laws for each country I can't answer for.
As CCP is already taking this responsiblity. I apologize for posting on forum. But I tried searching for this information before, I really did. |

I'd honestly expect most countries would have a central number for that which would probably know common world languages, E.G: English. I also imagine that CCP's GM team also has people that can speak a reasonable amount of world languages. Either of these means that someone will get the message. And most countries would accept information to prevent any attempt at self-harm as being a perfectly reason to provide necessary personal information. But IANAL. |

I've actually read that Blizzard GM's have "panic buttons" for when players make suicide threats which immediately gets a supervisor involved. |

Wasn't there a story where CCP contacted the Italtian police about a suicide case, which lead to the person getting help ?
Or was that another company?  |

That honestly doesn't surprise me. I can see it getting reinstated for Diablo 3 once they finally get PvP in as well. |

Wow, not only was this in the Dev Blog, but it was stated in the various threads that some GM's/Dev's responded to. |

Have you seen the number of suicidal players on the forums recently? Do you really expect CCP to contact the local authorities for each and every one of them? |

According to the dev post, they do have a hotline in case somehow suicide crosses their desk. Also, this has apparently helped some random people as well. Sometimes, the best thing to do is have a random moment of compassion. |

I live in the UK equivalent of a ghetto and I've seen some pretty nasty **** go down
I know for a fact the 5-10min drive with blues and sirens from the nearest Police station , just doesn't cut it sometimes
What CCP think to achieve with the policy is beyond me
It's potential to save life in a time critical situation is ~0% sorry
Frankly the 2 mins it takes to take a door down has been too long |
