The forum is a good example; there are guides and community help, but also a large part of toxic people. The difference between EVE and other games is that there is greater freedom to harass other players in countless ways. There is a player who recently died in an accident and even after hearing the news, they were not able to close their mouths or show respect. EVE attracts that profile of sociopathic people. ---

Is it actual harassment, or are you just virtue signalling? ---

I actually still miss Hateless\_Gaming and last fortnight I actually revisited his YouTube videos to help wil a burner mission. I feel the eve online community could learn something much what he had once shared with us all. o7 many will remember him. ---

What is ‘toxic’ here exactly? EVE is a sandbox MMO that allows PVP to happen everywhere. That is the nature of the game. Policing behavior is actually the true toxicity in modern gaming as all it does is enables petty pedantry to run rampant in your community, people should be allowed to speak openly and honestly to each other without fear of being banned, granted as long as it doesn’t spill into IRL which is already against EVE’s TOS. And the last thing we need is to give players banhammer ammunition against one another because someone said something off color after being ganked at some point. ---

I think it has something to do with voodoo curses that are cast after the fact that could be considered toxic. ---

Toxic is way to easly used… And eve online is a PVP game with somewhat save sectors… And if you log into this game you are a pvp player… Beacuse its a PVP game A sandbox. Sandbox in this mmo type is a PVP model… If you like it or not this is MAINLY a PVP game… Hehe do you understand? And i dont find eve online toxic, the only thing i find toxic are mostly the gm’s in chats… They have thin skin and are simps… They mostly miss use there powers and have god complex. That is what i think and that is my experience with them… They cry the most 🙂 ---
