Is my account secure?

To stop meltdown, make a new account for each character.... and if one gets compromised you haven't lost "everything".

When you roll a new character. Current characters are where they are.

Aside from whatever issue are betwixt GG and staff, is effing with the players really helping his crusade?

Or am I giving his maturity too much credit?

I thought it was an unwritten rule of the intranets you never fuck with people and RL. Serious. Whoever did that makes Sam Deathwalker look like a better citizen.

Some of the "stories" I heard over the years playing Eve Online:

- During a fan fest presentation, a very drunk Mittani - leader of Goonswarm who preached their purpose was to ruin your game, asked his listeners to push a ~broken~ person towards suicide. He later apologized for the event and was removed from leader of the CSM (a group of elected players that directly interact with CCP developers).

- Corporations build such hatred towards other corporations that horror stories of people getting their cable and telephone lines cut just to curtail players logging into the game.

- Both CCP and players have had DOS attacks that crashed the game or servers.

And for the most part, this is considered "normal".

.... Omg... Someone knows my email address. Is my email safe?

Guys. Relax. Account names means little to nothing.

If you are worried, change your password.

That's all. Move on.

While fan fests and other gatherings have always been portrayed as players getting together to drink and to laugh it up, I am not sure if anyone got maced. Though there was the talk that a few rowdy players had to be pulled apart, but then drinking will do that towards people.

A few years ago, the country of Iceland received as a gift or CCP took part with it - I forgot the details at the moment (old age) some monument near their shores. CCP had each and every pilot's (character's) name etched onto plates as part of the design. A group of players despised this one particular player so much that they found this person's name and vandalized the monument by scratching that name off! The whole became a legal issue with criminal charges; but again, another example of players going to the extreme.

While a bit off-topic, when I first came to Project 1999 and was reading the forums, the Rant and Flames section I found quite calm and peaceful since I've read worse on the General Forums with Eve Online.
