> [@Tenger\_Ondor\_Khaan](#): > > And now we find that she plays the game. Have you really sunk this low: Celebrating an employee playing the game they work on. No disrespect to CCP Aurora intended, it’s just that if she’s earned applause it is probably for literally any of the other things she does. The minimum bar for any CCP employee should be “know your own game” and then kudos or jeers earned from there. ---

There was a time on this forum, a couple of years ago when we were very -ahem- rowdy. CCP Aurora was brought in and shortly thereafter there was a major cleanup of the major offenders. I was a minor offender, so I only got a warning, but a lot of other people got permanent forum bans. So many, many witty voices lost forever. ---

It was crazy. I called some annoying PvE carebear an “infantilizaed man child” - the other people were much more colorful than I. One guy basically just told everybody to “f-off”. He did this on almost every thread, day in and day out. Whenever somebody said they were quitting, he would tell them “good riddance.” The forum is very polite these days, in comparison. ---

> [@Xeux](#): > > It was crazy. I called some annoying PvE carebear an “infantilizaed man child” - the other people were much more colorful than I. Carebears again. I wonder how long that animosity has been running. Perhaps since a change in mechanics was introduced. You all calling each other bad guys isn’t going to do anything positive but get players incensed and banned. Not good for a game’s reputation. > [@Xeux](#): > > One guy basically just told everybody to “f-off”. He did this on almost every thread, day in and day out. Whenever somebody said they were quitting, he would tell them “good riddance.” Someone with a bone to pick with the whole world.
