That’s fine. But it seems to me an idea was deleted as well and it was not just editing of word choice.
Verbally trolling people is only fun when the vic is a pompous, self-absorbed, humorless, greedy myope.
It is fortunate that such people are plentiful - and they readily self identify.

what i had to say its there
i dont want to star a fight and get this topic closed
my main point is that im tired of the sadistic eve player narrative
This is a prime example of an unhelpful and indeed trouble making poster. Why it is he is this way IDK, but he is consistent.
BTW The only posts I have deleted were posts that would get me banned (again) or so I thought. Of literally hundreds of posts that might be 3 in total.
Outside of a few widely-publicized cases, I’ve yet to see any of this take place from any PvP instigators.
Now, as I’ve said before, I’ve received (and observed) quite a bit of verbal griefing from PvP recipients.
Start making examples if you want to be taken seriously.
If you cant post anything constructive that wont get you banned, why post at all? I have only deleted 1 post in 3 yrs. 
But they are a significant part of the player base. Its also interesting to note that they reel others into their behaviors, some only for a time before they wise up.
Other games also have such players of course. But EVE has that partucular point that people have dedicated so much real time and actual money to obtain prized in game goods or even corporations. A round of Fortnite is like 20 minutes and you start from zero. The propensity for sadism is limited.

IMO usually the types that use the sadistic card are people who don’t understand the game very well , lost very little in comparison to other players and want to get sympathy by playing the victim
And this Ladies’ and Gentlemen is why the forums are toxic. This thd had a sense of humor till Ridley showed up.

It sounds like Ridley prefers Fortnight anyway.

I will just access my file of screenshots that I take every 30 seconds both of local chat and deleted forum posts and show you.
I will also show you screenshots of ganker channel chats where victims were sucked into that I had no access to.
If I remember you correctly, you often like to ask for hard evidence that you know cannot exist and then do a silly victory dance as if you just made some fantastic helpful point.
It just looks to me like your own personal niche for being abusive.
Ridley’s are irrelevant in the long term game. What about My 1 bil bet that Ka_lah is a CCP troll! 
Not likely. <0.000000000001% chance.

Sorry, I just had to!
Edit; Poor girl then…
Well, to be fair, EVE may have nothing on Grand Theft Auto. In general, I know why people play games and why they choose certain games. Its down to more than one reason for everyone, and those multiple reasons are present in different degrees in everyone.
Believe me, I am glad people are getting their sadistic jollies via video game rather than in real life, however, chats and forum posts breach the gap.
@ISD_Dorrim_Barstorlode Do you see what Archer started now? Long term thinking?
Edit; What if I turned the bet into a bounty?
No forum posts, keep it to game only. The forums reach like 150 people a week, and most of them are repeat customers. What goes on here doesn’t count.
I said start making examples. I didn’t say post a dossier of hard evidence. Since I sit in many of those same channels, I’ll know for a fact if you’re lying. And if your only examples consist of mining passes being sold, don’t even bother.
Sounds to me you’re just trying to weasel out tbh.
There you go again. It can’t just be a game with a different ruleset to you; no, it has to be a kink castle for malcontent player-killers. Oh, the horror of someone actually enjoying the act of destroying another player in a video game created with that specific purpose in mind. Why can’t we all just get along, and take turns hitting each other over the head consensually?
Allow me to explain. Humor is a great way to tell the truth while simultaneously ignoring it on a conscious level. Its often helpful to do that, but its always limited. It also often leads threads off track.
But straight opinions are often seen as toxic because they cause discomfort. This is often due to the truth component smacking straight into the conscious mind.
For the love of BOB, will you read the OP???
I’m glad you have ideas. But when you repeat them ad nauseum just to get your way, you lose respect.
