This brings to mind… so to answer OP’s question: Maybe some EVE players take specific titles all too seriously. As for the why, maybe the reason is they are jealous. 🤔

You’re confused. I wasn’t talking about you nor discussing stuff on the forums (and especially not anything related to moderation). I meant what I wrote, nothing more. 🤔

It looks like a post that I answered was removed.. I gotta wonder though. Why?

It was not spamming, off topic posting, or even a discussion of warning and bans. Nor rumor mongering. Whatever that last one means. Nor any of the other reasons listed that was not in bold. It was clarifying why I play EVE. It was a legitimate question and I posted a response that took the question seriously.

I guess it is, what it is. SHRUGS

There’s a clear pattern and it needs to be addressed.

You can always edit and repost your question. The current process is necessary as the forum is routinely spammed by someone using ChatGPT.

As both the question and my response were deleted. I do not recall all that I had posted. Nor what was needing to be really clarified. In all likelihood it would be deleted again. Just not worth that much effort. SMH  
CCP, like any company, determines what they want on their forums. I suspect saying anything else would get this post deleted as well.

Well, if the question was deleted, then that probably explains why the response was removed. It must have been an inappropriate question!
