That PIE capsuleers do not only supply their comrades with spiced wine, but also with dark, maltey ale and fine brandy from their planetside holdings?

Seriously guys? We shouldn't even have to bring this up.

The live events team are coming into RP community channels for your benefit. They're trying to get us involved, to give us the opportunity to do what we've all been complaining loudly about for years - the ability to affect the ongoing story of the game universe.

Don't make the mods have to step in here, because we will if it becomes necessary.

Morwen's Law:
1) The number of capsuleer women who are bisexual is greater than the number who are lesbian.
2) Most of the former group appear lesbian due to a lack of suitable male partners to go around.
3) The lack of suitable male partners can be summed up in most cases thusly: interested, worth the air they breathe, available; pick two.

Pathetic, but not unexpected.

Maybe one day we can have a supposedly pro-RP channel where people get to RP instead of being trolled for whatever inane reason anyone can think of.

Until then, this is one of the reasons I don't frequent the summit and why we can't have nice things.

Yes, one day we'll have a place where we only let the good people in.

Who would we allow on such a prestigious list?

Say to yourself "Me, of course", and maybe you can hear me laugh from all the way over here.

If we can hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate!

Don't be ridiculous.  Everyone knows you don't laugh.  The times are too dark.

I doubt the dev actor left because he was trolled. If he did, that actually seems rather ridiculous to me, and I don't blame the trolls either.

EVE has been nurtured and fostered as a majority community of trolls. Trolling CCP is nothing new ingame. Dev actors get shot at, CCP fleets get smacked in local, and the forums are a cesspool... yet CCP seems to often encourage this behavior, oftentimes by trolling alongside players.

Why should they expect a pristine and perfect community in RP? I wouldn't understand why the RP community would be held to such lofty and strict standards by the very developers who have not only fostered this community, but also take part in it with their unofficial accounts.

If the dev actor ran away with his tail tucked between his legs because he got trolled in the Summit, boo-freaking-hoo. Grow some thick skin and put up your IC fisticuffs. If someone is really acting out of line, the Summit mods will step in.

Keep in mind I'm not defending trolls. I'm criticizing whoever that actor was for leaving 'because they got trolled', if indeed that is the reason.

TL;DR
I don't think the RP community should have to 'behave' any more than they usually do just because it's a dev actor.
