Horrible forum moderation at eve online.

alexander78alexander78 Member Posts: 2
in EVE Online

SOLVED: I was banned because my brother was banned with his user "Boss Gay", he had trolled the CCP staff and had a lifetime forum ban, so they banned me because we share same ip. I will repetition it after i have activated my account with my creditcard, since i can prove then that we are two different persons.

 

___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Hi

I made an account at eve online after i was invited by my brother. I decided to take part in the forum community to ask questions about the game. I was known as "Capsuleer 872" ingame and i replied in this thread to other player:

http://eve-search.com/thread/175026-1/page/1#12

ME: Can you insure your ship? 

OTHER PLAYER: And yes, you can insure your ships. (It's a sandbox, you're gonna lose a ship one way or another.)

ME: Unless you stay docked.

OTHER PLAYER: And we just found another obvious troll.

ME: What leads you to that conclusion dear?

OTHER PLAYER: Your face.

ME: I didnt get my mothers genes, you cannot blame me for that now can you?

 

For this thread i replied in i got this email:

SUBJECT:  banned from EVE Forums permanently

I didnt get even one warning, nor did i do anything wrong.

I was like wtf??? I have never been banned from any forum in my entire life or even had an infraction! I sent a support ticket about this, still have not received any answers. How can forum moderation be this strict? I don't see i did ANYTHING that would offense the rules. I bet the moderator just didnt like my avatar, but i like to make my avatar look like it was judge your self. Now my question is have anyone else had problems with eve online forums?

    Nothing wrong with your avatar ...

     

    "Removed some off topic posts. Keep it on topic, thank you."

    Is the mod quote though, nothing thats left in that thread would lead to even a warning, not even to mention a permanent ban.

    Now thats interesting.  I'd be tempted to say there must be more involved, but CCP isn't the company it once was. I spent almost 6 years in EVE, and finally left because I disagreed with the direction the game was headed.  

    Their forum mods have been fairly even handed over that time, but I keep hearing rumors that they have become really heavy handed in the last year or two.  But it is a private forum, and if they wish to behave in that fashion, thats entirely up to them.

    I too got banned from eve online forums for "trolling", i did not see my post as trolling. Cancelled all my 4 accounts there. They had good moderation before, but now the mods are absolutely crazy and ban people from right to left. I did not get any warning either, best avoid eve online forums if you play. Eve is good game but the forums are guarded by crazy power tripping mods, if you look at the different forum sections 20% of all posts are locked on first 4 pages. Tells alot =)

    if you feel you have been wronged, you can contact customer support. either they made misstake or know more than meets the eye. i have never had issue with moderation, and all my complaints have been resolved favorably.

    Just by looking at your post history, it's pretty clear you are just trolling. Don't get butt hurt if people report you in multiple threads and moderators ban you. You know you were just asking for it.

    I used the word rumor for a reason... ^^  On the other hand, "baseless slander" has a very specific meaning, and implications reaching beyond mere speculation... 

    Perhaps it might be best if we leave it at that?

    Personally i think thats a fine line, i used slander because unlike rumor it has a clear negative pov. Though im not a native english speaker, so i'll be more than fine with leaving it as it is. That being said there is nothing wrong with baseless slander, aslong as its entertaining.

    For some reason it seems one of the players suspected you of not being a new player, but perhaps thought you were really an alt account of your brothers.  (and the forum moderator agreed) As such, they may have banned you thinking "he" was trolling the forums pretending to be a new player.

    Your character wasn't an alt character on your brother's account was he? If so, that definitely would have got you banned.

    Edit: You should know, CCP has become very protective of new players and take action against those they feel might be harassing them, both in game and in the forums.

    They seem to become some protective they have started to ban them apparently.

    Besides trolling and asshattery IS against most forums rules, we all do it from time to time anyway if the odd mood strikes us ... but rules are rules. If your not ready to deal with the consequences, don't do the deed.

    Apart from that Kyleran is maybe spot on, using alts on forums to troll might lead to an perma forum ban for that alt.

    The game isn't really worth it anyway, far too many scammers in the game.

     

    TBH the forum banning saved you alot of time wasted inside of that  hole.

    So they're taking inspiration from various governments then?

    Lets look at the facts.

    1. CCP only changes players names to Capsuleer xxx when they have an offensive name.
    2.  If his bother invited him he would have already known the answers to all those questions he asked. I havent played EVE in years yet I still talk it up on how hard core it is, his brother would have done the same.
    3. We all know no matter what game it is no one would have been banned for what he said. we not getting the whole story or its been modified.
    4. CCP in its ban response confirms #3, which is further supported by #1
    5. Hes an "alt" (of his brother). We know that CCP is filled with alts and that the players love making them. This is supported by #2.
    6. Almost everyone who plays EVE has a sadistic and a masocistic streak to them. This is a fact.
    7. Its obvious he was fullfilling a masocistic desire to be punished. Supported by #1 - #6.
    8. Hes not really pissed off about what happened because he actually posted in the EVE specific forum here, and not in the General disscussion forum where it would get more views. Reinforcing #7
    9. This is an alt account on MMORPG.com. Supported by #8 and  #5
    10. He is also trying to fullfill his desire to be punished on here by making a troll thread. This is supported #6 and #7
    People stop being a victim of the forum trolls. Wise up you turkeys.

    You are correct, I fell for it (and wasn't aware of rule number 1 above).  Nothing further to see here, as nothing really is as it seems.

    I like how people somehow use someone elses bad forum experience to explain problems with the game itself hahaha,  

    Forum moderators are human, as such idots exist amongst them.   Its nothing to do with the game or even the developers and happens in all games.

    Wait for the petition reply and stop crying.
