Here are the things that I've heard about Jumpgate Evolution that I think will make it easier for people to be asshats.

• Multiple characters per account. Unless limited to 1 character per shard, this grants players the ability to be an asshat and then jump onto another character rather than face the consequences of their asshattery.
• Making death less painful. While noble in it's goal, this also encourages asshattery, such as splashing equipment (provided at SOME velocity you'll explode on impact of course)
• Safe zones. If the safe zones often invulnerability then you're sure to get border jumping asshattery, similar to the stories I heard about EU border jumping asshats when regulated space wasn't really very safe.

That's all that comes to mind now. Add to it, pose ideas for ND to limit asshattery, add things you've heard that encourage asshattery (and I'll add them to the list), or just discuss.

It would be nice to know what way multiple chars per account will be regulated if at all.
It would be nice to know what level of collision damage will be/may be implemented.
It would be nice to know exactly what way the safe zones will be safe/safer.

Lots of people seem to be jumping on the bandwagon based on limited information releases to vent annoyance. Lots of interviews with no real new information from ND just feed this weeks past time.
Rather than start threads designed for people to start throwing toys out of the cot why not go play some arcade or something?

So it's not ok for people to express their annoyances with information that has come out but it is ok for you to express your annoyances with those peoples posts? I see, why not just go play an arcade then?

I feel very hurt.

So it's okay to point out the hypocrisy about people criticizing other people expressing their annoyances with information that has come out, by pointing out that they feel it is okay for them to express their annoyances with those peoples posts?

Wait, it is!

This isn't a dooooom post. It's to encourage discussion to figure out ways people can abuse stuff so that ND deals with those ways before release. I also really like the word asshattery. If I was venting annoyance I'd mention turrets or level = choice.

After the back lash from the last news maybe they are busy working out the way to get it right before coming back to us.

Multi characters on one account I don’t mind ( was rather good in Eve )

Safe zones really needs explaining the only thing that comes to mind is the way its done in Eve, but even then your not totally safe, if its for noobs then why not have training grounds in core sectors or the like.

The main one that really needs to be ditched as I read it or at least some one from ND to spell out in ABC, so people can stop wondering around like headless chickens and venting *negativity* is the collisions.

Or is it going to be I cant say at this time but we will feed you some more interviews soon weather the backlash from then then get back ti you next Friday.

+1 . Apart from the arcade bit as I find that comment rather rude and childish. I would rather say make some constructive posts instead.

I don't mind, but only under certain circumstances....and those are that I can see ALL characters "related" to the one you are on. As in, you give him a first name and last name....all characters on your account have that last name....

Also, if I ignore one character on your account, I want the option to ignore them all.

But IMO, giving multiple characters only gives people more ability to remain anonymous, and I think everyone's learned from being in online forums on the net, Anonymity breeds Asshattery (I like the word too).

This is actually a good thread. Shocking when you consider the OP. =P

I agree that we should discuss these things so that ND gets an idea what we would like before progressing too much further.
