The politics and war goons are literally in charge of toilet eve now and we are doing everything we can to make things as easy as possible for goons.

Meanwhile, I know a lot of people don't want them in toilet EVE, but... I kind of do want capitals to get introduced, because I really like the visual design of the Amarrian capitals and I want to fly them. :smith: Let me rock around in my Rev or my Archon or even my Aeon.

For context, since it seems that this was only posted in the discord, it turns out that for someone who isn't racist and doesn't tolerate racism, SonBanana tolerates a lot of racist poo poo in his house.

nakieon

Unfortunately, SonBanana prefers to deny that any racism has occurred in his discord at all to preserve alliance relations with REKI since Patone1 is the CEO. It is absolutely disgusting behavior.

Here's Patone1 being racist in discord and I called him out on it.

SonBanana goes on to put on some sort of a virtue signal or general "sweep it under the rug" type of rant. It's all good guys, just have fun in the game! Racism in discord is not ok! Lol! Also he works with kids so he knows what he's talking about.

Patone1 sneaks this in after that, with no resistance from anybody else.

SonBanana explains to me he is totally not racist and racism isn't allowed! Also, did you know that Patone1 isn't a racist? SonBanana says so! Again, he works with kids and supports all ethnic nationalities, so he really knows what he's talking about.

I admit I could've been even stronger (IMO, looking back, my message looks very weak) in my opening message to SonBanana but that whole "I am not racist, he is not racism, racism isn't allowed" threw me for a loop I had no idea what to say afterwards.

I am so glad Bananafleet is neuted now. Thanks Goosefleet

Yes, they are in Delve, and from my time with them I can confirm a lot of their members do not know what they are doing. They have multiple different corporations/allies that call different stations home, but their core call UHKL station home. They often station camp the UHKL station. Their primary ratting systems are ON-CR0 and the glorious 7-K pocket. REKI also typically farm in ON-CR0 if you'd like to really get at them specifically. They are often in fleets, but not always.

I created another account and paid the $10 in order to take responsibility for my idiotic remarks and to provide some context. With how much toxic masculinity and misogyny is prevalent in gaming the fact I inadvertently contributed to it is very upsetting and disappointing.

I do not know this person I posted about. The only knowledge I have about them is that their claim to fame as a spy is using sexploitation in order to dupe a corp in EO out of a capital ship. I was shocked that someone capable of such incredible duplicity wasnt able to just get a few friends to vouch for them. I said as much in voice chat when we were discussing this yesterday. I regret that like me this person acted without thinking and is suffering the consequences of that choice.

In my experience I've only seen this done by men masquerading as women. Almost universally the women I've gamed with do not like this type of thing because it promotes a negative stereotype.

I regret using the term I did which has in the past only been directed at sweaty neckbeards dumb enough to fall for this sort of scam.

We live in a culture where grace or contrition aren't encouraged so I understand and accept me apologizing or trying to explain why I said something so incredibly stupid will make no difference in outcomes for me personally. I had my shot and I let people down by being careless. In my attempt to try to support a group I believe in and was starting to form friendships in I did just the opposite.

While I accept responsibility for my comments I hope this helps underscore that this isnt who I am. So many people have challenges with gender in their daily lives and gaming is a respite from that i ruined for some people today.

If you've hung in this long enough I appreciate the rapid response from both the forum admins and the corp in ensuring that this is a community where everyone can be welcome.

I deeply regret detracting from that even inadvertently. Like flying a ship you can't afford pain is the best instructor and I appreciate the show of support for women gamers with the deserved ridicule and quick action of leadership in addressing my stupidity.

Was fun while it lasted and this is a group of solid folks. Thanks all.

That’s not Holocaust Denial, that’s just an idiot being ‘edgy’. Still an idiot, though, so I hope you enjoy killing him. The ‘jewing’ comment is something anyone claiming to be against bigotry should say is unacceptable, and that any repetition of it will earn a ban. I’m a softy, I’d let people have one freebie before bans.

I agree with the edgy thing, but:

Patone1 definitely burned his freebies on multiple offenses:
- Jew word used as a slur (first offense)
- Saying that a latino man is allowed to use certain slurs but a white man can't (also sort of promotes the idea that only white men can be racist, which in itself is racist towards white people)
- Second jew word used as a slur, typo'd as "jee"

I got a lovely message from SonB this morning saying he still doesn't tolerate racism. He also explains that Patone1 "has a woman of color", implying racists couldn't possibly date women of color.

*checks notes* Yes, REKI is still in their alliance.

Ask me about being a SJW in EE and working to make anyone who disagrees with me a villain and gets no opportunity to defend themselves at all because my army or sycophants I buy off with pixels follows me blindly.

Patone clearly doubled down, and he is personally set red in Means.

Son Banana has been in my DMs and we will see what their response is. We had some refuges when that all went down and we're accepting any of the people outraged by what happened.

I personally think setting REKI red is on the table, that would be the corp that has the shitlords in it.

For now they're all set neutral and the situation is deteriorating, just like we how it when it comes to shitlords.

I agree with this entirely and I will volunteer as much time as I have humanely possible to griefing these disgusting fucks. I was down near (e: im a dumb and mixed up EO and EE and originally typed 1DQ here) UHKL last night and saw a lot of the "HappyBees" people so that is almost certainly still their home.
