Now Have Two Profiles
« on: 29 Oct 2014, 23:32 »

So we now have two distinct profiles on the official site. A forum profile and a Gate profile. I liked all of the forum changes up until this. But this is just unnecessary ease-of-stalking in my opinion. Tracking post counts, an easy-to-read latest posts, all of this? What was wrong with just having an EVE Gate profile?

They're moving forum-centric features to the forum. And it's possible they're phasing out EVE Gate or redesigning it. The forum and EVE Gate changes/tweaks were mentioned in the CSM minutes but I don't remember the details offhand and it's late so I'm not about to go fishing for them until morning.

Lagging Behind

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.

Mmk, I'll go through the minutes tomorrow. I've just heard highlights from others so far. As I said, I loved all of the forum changes until this. Not like it really ticks me off or anything, but it seems redundant.

Banned people have a cool new pop-up now!

Woah that's kinda cool. Not that you're banned, because that sucks, but the little popup is cool. I've never seen it before... well, I mean, obviously... but you know what I meant. This is like some documentary about prison life, only it's banned life. You should get a tattoo, you know? One of those prison inks done with a ballpoint pen and a dull razor blade. Nice.

Anyways, this is the first "I am banned" announcement post that I have ever found genuinely interesting, in the history of all of my internets. Ever.

Congratulations.

Anyanka has been banned for almost seven months now. I actually enjoy the ban. I would've posted so much more hilariously shit posts if Anya hadn't been banned. I think Anya would've had more hate than Diana. At least Diana has the redeeming quality of being a Caldari loyalist. There is no hope for a baby eating Blood Raider. That is what Anya would've devolved into publicly anyway. Being banned was a blessing fit with a covert ops cloak! You should all try it sometime! ;)

I wonder if 'being a gadfly' is a bannable offense.

"permaban" only means 6 months anyway nowadays, according to the forum moderation policies.

This can be true. You are allowed to petition every six months to regain access. I petitioned and they said because of my in-game activities they will not restore my forum privilege. It's a bullshit excuse since I wasn't banned for in game activities. I was banned for linking porn on my tumblr account that was linked in my forum sig. I'm just not going to petition again. I would only use IGS anyway and IGS is pretty shit. So it's not worth it.
