yes im expecting supposedly witty ******s to come about and say something like "fail" and "trol troll is troll" and all the rest of the ****e I see being posted in response to threads. I love this game and the in game community but there is a horrid ugliness within the forums which in all honesty is no better than world of warcraft players, someone posts something thats not to there taste and they insist on belittling it as if they are gods gift, sadly your not. im bored of seeing threads trashed by memes and bull**** basically all other such things. There is no real need at all I can fully understand heated discussion and arguements but seriously a troll is no better than a child on WoW, this is EVE, lets try not to bring down the image by pretending were all super 1337, if you want to troll this fine but then I suspect you have 3 level 70 elves or some such other mystical WoW crap.
oh and another point sorry. posting things like "oh a thread whining about whiners" is just so pathetic.
I plead for some of you to grow up within this community. all the rest have a great time.

You're acusing people of something you don't even know the meaning of.
A troll, by definition, is someone who creates a post for the sole purpose of inciting a negative reaction in those who read it. This thread is insulting and obviously for the sole purpose of annoying those who read it. Hence, you are a troll. By definition of course. _______________

OP is right though. The general quality of responses is dismal these days...just the same 4chan catchphrases over and over and over... Extremely tiresome --

I skimmed through the OP and it seemed like it was written in trollish.

Sentences begin with capitalisation.
I do however agree with the message buried in your rant. I have observed a psychological phenomenon on these forums, where individuals seem to desperately seek community validation through communicating popular idioms, with the intention of strengthening social bonds with those they perceive as socially dominant. Being accepted as part of a social group makes people feel safe.
It does seem quite sad when people want to be validated by a community of people on the internet, who they will likely never meet. And it can get quite tiresome when you see the same old reflexive nonsense in every thread.

To be honest, saying "NO U" would be a perfectly valid response to 2/3rds of posts in EVE-O forums.

I find it quite interesting studying the way people debate in online communities. Often they can provide microcosm examples of the way people engage in self censorship and adhere to ideological frameworks in wider society.

Edited by: Cyprus Black on 06/11/2008 03:24:16 I'm hesitant to point out the OP is in conflict with the thread topic but... dang.
And yeah, there is a lot of trolling in MMO games. Mostly because the CMs allow it to happen. Some forums are better than others though. WHA forum CMs will swing the bannhammer pretty hard. WoW forum CMs will issue warning after warning until you are annoyed into compliance. EvE forums are certainly better than WoWs, but still pretty bad.
Unfortunately trolls are everywhere on the internet. The only way to combat them is to rule over the forums with an iron CM fist.
