Do problem players have any responsibility to change their own behavior?

Mayhew she was responding to Diablos call for help because he felt people were abusing the corp mail system in another thread, the one he linked, to which she replied.

GUIDE TO FOUMS FOR MAYHAW:

a) Read post.
b) reply to CONTENT in post.
c) make your own post, avoid insulting other poster even if you disagree with them.
d) others read your post, are not triggered by bile and venom.
e) Someone somewhere agrees with you and is not ashamed to say so in public for fear of associating with a troll.
f) they make a post supporting your position.
g) the original poster responds
h)profit

Adult discourse continues.

I don’t see a call for help in the inline post immediately above Ramona McCandless’ post.

You’all have been asking for examples of “problem players”. It seems like Diablo’s post is an answer to that request. Would you mind quoting the part that you see as a request for help?

207

WHAT?

He referred to a post where he declared the behaviour of some players unacceptable, and asked for help.
He was informed what his options where, and how to handle the situation.
In THIS THREAD he used this as an example of people
’pushing their agendas, and bullying others away from the forums to limit other voices’.

Ramona then countered, by explaining that GD is not the place for reporting that, and that if it is an harassment issue (which it isn’t if you read the thread he linked), there is a way for dealing with this.

You then, as is your communication style which is your business but as I have explained it doesn’t really work, You then
quoted one line of her post, not even a complete sentence
’I cant say Id be leaping to help’
with your comment, I’m confused, Ive read most of this thread but I cant seem to recall in any of the posts anyone asking for help.

I then made my post. BECASUE DIABLOS WHOLE THREAD HE LINKED WAS A CRY FOR HELP HE WAS GIVEN HELP. Not the help he wanted but advice and guidance.

So if you read and understood before replying- as I noted, if you followed
’Mayhan Morgans guide to forums posting’ I have written for you

this would all make perfect sense.

The point was that NO ONE was bullying diablo and his initial comment
’Most people on this forum here are only people pushing their agendas, and bullying others away from the forum to limit other voices.'
was disproved by the actual thread he posted, in which he did ask for help, was given advice, didn’t like it, and came back here.

Honestly do I have to do this for you every time you post? Its just basic conversation, the basic rules by which adults conduct themselves when discussing things.

Storytime, I was in stain fighting guys who wanted the system I lived in. It took me a long time to leave, during this time bitter PvP took place, lots of insults being hurled my way. I tried to be adult and not respond with insults which was hard. Eventually I blocked all of them and continued to fight them.

Lol. They were so upset with me blocking them they put a can on scan near station named “■■■■ off from here ■■■■■■” (negative n word for black people) at this point I petition, no lie, 10 seconds later a gm starts talking to me and logs onto the system I was in and removed the can and gave the perps a warning.

Problem players will never change, leave them alone and use petition function if they take it too far.

Its worth mentioning as well, that Diablo is calling bully bully, but he throws autism round like an insult left right and centre, doesn’t bother me but its worth putting out there. I don’t think this makes him a bully, its just its easy to see
the injustices inflicted on ourselves, are easier to see than the injustices we inflict upon others.

I actually like the guy and enjoy his posts for the most part, but it would be a better place if people stopped with the labels
and started with the content.

GG with the can by the way, hoisted by their own petard, you meta gamed the meta gamers, aint (eve) life grand.

I wasn’t mocking you mate, I just pointed out to Mayhew that he couldn’t read, I do think you might have taken advice in the wrong spirit sometimes in that thread, but I get why that situation with the corp mail is frustrating for you
but I like your strategic use of discobot and weaponised emojis,
and truly truly am not bothered by the autism thing, its an eve meme and as stereotypes go
I find it pretty flattering.

BFFs?

217

I’m not even sure what to say, what you mean with mocking me? I haven’t even read your posts, I saw a short one with me asking for help and one in capital letters which I quoted.
What you mean with me asking for help? explain yourself.
Strategic weaponized emojis etc, you’re out of touch with reality.
I’m worrying about you referring your self as being a MeMe mate.

@discobot fortune please protect humanity from them self

Hi! To find out what I can do, say @discobot display help.

221

These forums…wow

222

^ This is a quote. Would you mind doing one of these for the exact words Diablo used to request help?

223

Oh sorry! I thought you were quoting me, the stuff about help is all to do with the ongoing discussion, if you read the thread it will make sense, it was not about you needing help or not needing it though, nothing to do with you really at all.

PS. if you actually do want me to explain myself, these should help

Why don’t you just explain yourself about what I asked, your rhetoric is only getting more confusing now. :thermometer:
