Uh.......ok? Honestly, I don't really care what they say or think, if they don't wanna play eve, so be it. If they wanna stereotype us as all as bullies and griefers so be it. I honestly don't care that they think we all are cowards and nerds sitting in our parents basements as 30yr olds with no love life. Hell it's that sorta thinking that drives griefing forward. But oh well, such is the internet.

TL, DR version: Somoene griefed/scammed/shot my ship and now I need to tell the world how nasty the Eve community is. We are all an accident waiting to happen, sooner or later we will all go out into the streets and overthrow the government with our vile evil selves.
Some people should just stick to Pac Man.

Edited by: Cire XIII on 28/06/2008 17:36:19 "The replies in this thread Quote: reveals
that Eve is in fact a haven for sadism"
This was the first thing I noticed when the page loaded. I can't be bothered to read anymore. However, from the replies in this thread it seems that the things which make Eve enjoyable to its members include some of the very same things that others hate.

Oh noes, someone doesn't like EVE!
Well, we must surely ask CCP to reprogram EVE right away. I mean, we may lose a person on a trial account!
Also, how did he find out that the reason we shoot people is because daddy visited us at night? I thought it was an internet secret! |

Edited by: Amastat on 28/06/2008 18:15:38 It's true that, EVE being the way it is, and the nature of EVE, attracts ****wads. We're lying to ourselves to deny that - there is no room for being polite to eachother, and helping eachother out in EVE (except on the corporate level, maybe), due to the dark nature of the game, and the competitive nature of the PvP system in place.
Heck - even in a lot of corporations, members are total asswads to eachother. Most alliances I've been in, and I've seen a lot over the years, don't even socialize on a large scale - they just fleet up when its time to, about the extent of working together. The corporations just keep to themselves, and have minimal mandatory interaction with the other alliance corporations - Could be they just aren't interested in each other, aren't on the same wavelength, or are even competitive (political tug, power, ISK).
Spying and Sabotage is a widely used tool in large scale warfare in this game as well - this is partly made possible because a lot of alliances like this are easy to corrupt or even divide/defect.
It may seem harsh, tense, and uptight - but welcome to EVE. Personally I'd rather tolerate this over the Myspace-like crap games like WoW.
It's a dark game with dark gamers - you can't seriously expect it will attract fairies and teddy bears, eh?
You cannot say that it is much worse than other games though - there are tons of other MMORPGS out there, and a lot of them are full of just as many, or almost as many, *******s.
The guy who was posting was going over the top though on our players being sadistic - this is just not true.
Most sadistic actions in EVE are just typical EVE PvP that soft gamers such as himself experience - they may get podded, lose SP, and be wardeced and camped all day - and think its sadistic. Well - hate to tell that poster, that it's in common practice - it's something we call Total Warfare. The poster is so used to the usual flowers and ice cream, he just couldn't see the real picture of things, or even fathom it - he just saw what he interrupted it as - though it is mostly exaggerated.
Don't get me wrong, EVE is full of griefs, but a lot of other MMORPGS are too. Try playing RF Online in example - you get camped/PK'ed on that game 90% of the time - you even get PK'ed by members of your own faction; this actually can make leveling difficult beyond level 30 - griefs can't disrupt the players ability to progress in EVE like they can here in RF Online.
But - yea, this isn't a pure PvE RP game with no PvP and dungeon raids like WoW - a game where guilds suck up to everyone they see, so they have a extra hand to do their little dungeon running. If players are too soft, they need to stay away from PvP oriented games - or learn to live with it, or even embrace it. |

Some people were just not born to play pvp games.
There was one post in that thread where the guy compared the game to real life "rape" and called us all social paths.
Really though, it is people like that poster who have the deep rooted mental problems and issues. Anyone who takes a video game so seriously because they lost a pixelized spaceship should slowly move away from the computer, away from any sharp objects and put the straitjacket back on. |

I get more annoyed by real people on the subway with their disgusting smells, loud music and obnoxious constant mobile phone use.
The Eve community has never annoyed me even close to that level.

Originally by: FORD ESC0RT's ALT Post on MMORPG.com Eve...it is all about power and dominance. I think it's basically about sexual abuse and rape, personally, and expresses that trauma about as well as the corporate world which it emulates. Lots of deeply closeted people acting out their hurts on other people.
You got issues... seek help, now.
And no, my camp counselor did not touch me in naughty places when I was younger, nor did my daddy or my mommy. My grandparents, my high-school teacher or my nanny.
Edit:
Forgot to mention my neighbor, my neighbor did touch me in the naughty places, but I kinda liked it....

[quote...I like the free form open social structure of other mmorpgs, not being forced to join "corporations" (what a freaking drag); it is full of people who basically are bullies, only they don't even have the guts to risk their actual bodies, instead they engage in emotional cruelty against faceless players they have no responsibility towards
...
At least in other games there is a sense of play and beauty along with the monsters and fantasy swordplay. Eve has no patience for that, it is all about power and dominance. I think it's basically about sexual abuse and rape, personally, and expresses that trauma about as well as the corporate world which it emulates. Lots of deeply closeted people acting out their hurts on other people.
That thread...
Oh God, can't catch my breath...

I Think We Should All Be Ashamed Of Ourselves(tm)
Serious bit: I've played a few games with nasty communities, it's actually quite fun. Certainly beats the public server run by that christian clan who've config'ed the server to autokick you if you type "pee pee" in teamchat.
Only thing I don't like about the Bastards of Eve is the whine factor. I've seen trolling/ jerkmonkey behavior on about this scale before but I've never anywhere on the internet seen so many people with their knickers in so much of a twist. |

Originally by: FORD ESC0RT How people feel about EVE outside this fanboi forum
Strange, by the first few pages of the GD on most days I'd say the flameboys outnumber the fanbois by several orders of magnitude if not even more. To the people crying emo tears in the linked thread: Funny that the handles on a pot of boiling water will burn your hand if you grab them without an insulated glove. Think about that one.
