If you are still doing the dodgy 6 days later then you need to get some air son. You are insane. How can you EVER stop hating someone who robbed you for $80? I will never understand docile vegetables who can do that. Is your name Jesus by any chance? I hope you don’t start a religion. ---

Hang on I have just had a thought, does this mean my roleplay of being a slaver within Eve has to change? My usual philosophy was: The men would die fighting to defend their homes. The women would subsequently be raped/tortured for information on where we can find more slaves The children would be enslaved The teenage girls sold to whore houses The young boys I fly out to Goon Space, a Goon told me they pay high prices out there as long as I can deliver them alive! ---

My original post was flaged. Why? I still believe what I wrote there. I don’t want american sjw to mess around with this game. We don’t need americans to project their optics on social behaviours online. I don’t give a ■■■■ if a croatian player want to chop off other player hands. EvE allowed behaviours that would be penalized in RL. I don’t want changes just because some country in north america has problems with its law and constitution. ---

So let me get this straight. First CCP sells out its own customers to koreans, then tries to kick our teeth in with this incrementalism censorship? I have been with EVE for over a decade. I’ve had just about enough of there nonsense. I may seen need to vote with my feet+fleet and delete all my characters. I am NOT going to spend a few thousand a year just to have this ■■■■ platter foisted upon me. ---

> [@Nana\_Skalski](#): > > Well, common sense is not so common as anybody may think. Well see, that might be just another offensive thing to say (that’s why I didn’t imply that a lot of people don’t have it, how would I know if people have it or not?). In the past, I would have said “let’s try a discussion and reasoning and let’s ignore feelings”, because that’s the way things used to be and that’s the way I was educated. When you try to do that nowadays, any discussion will quickly turn into a “SJW-Slurs” vs “NameCalling” debacle. I am not trying to judge things people believe in, I really, REALLY do not want to do that and I try to avoid that where I can, but if you ask me to operate within a set of rules when you have multiple possible sets of rules around, then I really, really NEED a more defined explanation. I mean, as I stated, I do not intend to get involved into these questions ingame and I try to avoid it on forums too, because it used to have no place in the game or these forums. That has officially changed though, so… ---

So, it’s ok to commit fraud, as long as you don’t call someone a nasty name. You promote the game as a ‘sandbox’ but now feel the need to introduce rules to protect someone’s feelings. 🤔 ---

OK, let’s be honest and write as you are, this is done to protect CCP employees because they have too many sins on their backs and this measure will all hide it, and protect them from any criticism and unpleasant truths. ---
