CMDR Genghis Jameson - Fast attack wing leader.
Now i understand everything is relative, which is a good reason not to rigidly apply a rule with complete disregard of it's intended purpose. Name and Shame is there to protect those who need to be protected, those who are learning the game and those who for some reason can't play the game to the same "acceptable" level of others because of various reasons.
Name and Shaming has it's place, an important one, and you obviously don't understand it. It's a multiplayer game set in a ffa pvp environment. Nothing
with antisocial behavior in a game that ask for it, it could actually create groups of people who want to fight against/for those very thing you seem to think are wrong. No one is going to make friend with someone else by reading "generic name" just did this to me, no one is going to say hey he got me too im going to contact the other dude so we can get proper revenge. RolePlaying cant be achieved without existing ingame. There is a solo mode and a coop/group mode for those who are averse to pvp environment too.
Now when you get a guy that comes on the forum and says "lol just killed DAYLEET repeatedly lolo he is so bad in his sidey he dont even know how to deploy weapons lolol he ask what was the button but u no fk him" now thats name and shaming and that's not being sport at all.
When someone says, "Fk DAYLEET boosted through the letterbox YET AGAIN and this time hit me and i died, so sick of his **** if anyone sees him please kill him" Now thats not name and shaming, it's a sign an online community is healthy and trying to work together.
Anyway sorry if i offend anyone here but ive always played in pvp environment and this is what i learned from that.
As for tarnishing reputation, well better luck next time and you can always shine it back to it's former glory, no one is immune the consequence of his act.
CMDR Pappy Jameson-- miner (Hey if you can think of a famous miner, you tell me).
I'm not questioning the motive behind this, I'm questioning the technical sense of it. Names won't just miraculously change to pseudonyms.
Andrew, if the cmdr comes in and ID's himself is it OK then to assume usage of the real name. I understand why its in place but for the sake of forum banter and a good story I Dont mind being identified, especially if I ID myself.
I've now updated the OP with some names from the thread, and left out some other great ones for people to find reading through![]()
That's worthy of a link - great song!
