Yarrharrharr, I don't know what you have against Lecic, but you really seem to have a bone to pick with him.
On post number #53, while you do have a giant disclaimer saying it is not a personal attack, the last bit could stand to be reworded.
Also holy crap that is the longest continuous sentence I have ever read. Anyways I will space it apart that last part some without deleting content:
1) And your doxxing statement, when i was doxxed on a 3d modeling forum i simply got over it and learned from my mistakes, changed privacy settings, requested content be taken down by contacting the website owners that kind of thing,
2) not that i was not pissed off about it, i was very pissed, but according to your history of factions Google document, it happened a fair while ago,
3) imho if i were in your position i would do what i just said i did to myself and get over it, i don't mean to be mean here but learn from your mistakes and get over it although if you don't want to that's fair enough,
4) but after the incident that i had my friend refereed me to his social worker, who introduced me to that catastrophe scale, if you don't know what i am talking about it essential is a scale from 0-100 that helps you put things into perspective,
5) for me, it could have been a lot worse, that incident scored me 7 on that scale because it could have been a lot worse.
1) Well for starters, sorry to hear about your own doxxing experience, hopefully that didn't go too bad for you.
2-3) Some people handle things different ways. You were doxxed on a 3d modeling site, probably stole your info and some of your projects as well. Which is completly unacceptable, I agree. It seems to be a touchly subject here because this is literally a minecraft type game in space. The uncovering of personal information that is displayed should never be a thing that gamers have to worry about for simple games such as this one. While it can be unnerving and weird to be doxxed on a modeling site, it is just as strange if not weirder to have that happen to a member playing a game about blocks in space. Maybe he is trying to prevent it from happening to other people, maybe he is looking for an apology, I honestly don't know cause I don't know lecic all that well myself. Infact, I don't know much about the factions in this game period. Also, the phrasing is kinda harsh, might want to reword it.
4) Thats... nice advice but not really relevent. Sure it wasn't bad, but it is the breach in security, that breach in inate trust, that is damaging. Often times you can never rebuild that bridge. So while sure, the tornado only killed your dog and destroyed your house, your family is fine, your identity hasn't been stolen, and you still have your life and job. But the mental scarring will last a lifetime. Extreme example, but the scale is a bad system.
5) 7 out of what. what does the 100 mean? what is a 1? "Well I was just mugged and stabbed, but on the bright side this was only a 20!" I don't see how a simple scale/perspective can cause you to get over it just like that.
Hmm, sorry if the last two seem a little bit harsh, stepping away and coming back does grant the ability to reread it from another perspective. But I wanted to make a point and this is in no way a personal attack. (okay, for really, that felt maybe too snarky, but I like how it ties in with everything and it makes me feel creative. Hell, if you actually reword your post, I will feel obligated to reword mine xD)

I never said you were not allowed to be angry -_-
And swearing at me when i am trying to put things into perspective is not the way to go, if you had a problem with what i said, i would be more than happy to address your concern if you asked nicely, rather than having an angry moment when i am trying to make a point.
But you make yourself out to be someone who wants to bring in more players, and yet your telling them to "fuck off"?
That is very hypocritical, i try to remain a neutral 3rd party here, but your not making yourself look like the "good guy" or the "victim" you advertise to be.
Yes, I agree with you that Lecic shouldn't of said "fuck off" to you, that was rude of him to a new player. However, your way of putting things into perspective wasn't exactly sensitive either, so currently I see tension on both sides when their should be none. Also, you kind of ramble on in the second paragraph, calling hypocritical and accuse him of not being a victim to a crime that you yourself were a victim of. Keep in mind that he as decided to stick with the community and keep playing the game where this happened, which is slightly different from your case where you said you left.
Also, careful, you kind of crossed a line and voided that "third party unbiased claim".
Both you and Lecic need to calm down, you should stop accusing him, and Lecic, stop with the rude remarks.
Based on the fact that doxxing is using information publicly available to anyone who has the internet, personal privacy is not the right word to use, once you upload information to the internet that is you voiding you right to privacy for that set of information, not to say that it is ok to Dox, i hate it, i don't support it, and i don't generally like people who engage in it.
So technically information that is on the internet and publicly accessible is not exclusively your business
But as i said, if you don't like what i post, ask nicely rather than swearing at me for no good reason, and that offer is still open.
OOOhhhkkkaaaayyy.... dude. Seriously. If you want to "pull out the technical term" for the act that involves exposing information to groups, be that guy.
But, even though "once something is on the internet, it is not exclusively accessible", to pull up facebook information, or google circles, or myspace, on someone for a video game about blocks in space, is quite frankly
odd. You used the word perspective a few times, I can assume that you are able to take a step back with me and examine this situation. Games like EVE, LEAGUE, or the depths of 4chan have issues of this, but the cases is a small number in communities of millions. This community is maybe a few hundred, and yet according to the mods this has happened quite a few times.
This is not a common thing, and does not happen nor will happen to the vast majority of people, neigh, gamers out there. If this has happened to a significant number of people here (in a community of this small size, the number of significance would be around 5 when it should be 0.03) then their is a problem.
Do you know people who engage in this questionable activity? You said you generally don't like people who do it, but then that... implies that so that do it you do like. I myself don't know of anybody personally or who I have met online who has done this. It is a major form of cyber bullying and cyber harassment, and that can land you in court. If you are preforming this inside of the united states, or against a citizen in some cases, it can be weighed in against section 7. So while the activity is
technically not full on doxxing, it is neigh close enough and still illegal. Sad to say, most people don't realize this and it goes unreported 90% of the time. That's another reason why most flamming targets an individual's online identity, and not the personal identity of the target to skirt around most of the harassment rules because they are kinda loose.
Also, go back to what you were posting before this, your first posts were quite good.

Looking into that link you published, and doing a bit of diffing based off the words I saw and using the forum search, apparently user "Flying Debries" posted this:
http://starmadedock.net/threads/a-formal-apology.8595/
An official apology that a user 0Samuel0 accepted on behalf of the odium pack or something. Searching using all the key words, I could not find said video mentioned, and after PM'ing Flying Debries, he said he did remove the video from the public on his channel. I still could not find said channel to confirm however.
But it appears that the party involved apologized publicly, they removed the video (cause I could not find it for the life of me), and is now water under the hyperbole bridge. I would consider it poor taste to try to get said maker to apologize for it yet again, or you never quite believed the apology in the first place, in which case speak up and come to an agreement.
"xlBlackhawklx involving homosexuals and exploitation/doxxing" asking around, apparently said video, while distasteful to be said in 2015 no less as military personal do and still are dieing to protect this America where a person is not judged by there sexuality, we can skip by that first part and look at the second. Asking the maker of the video, apparently the leader, this hawk, condoned the action under "It is funny" and defended it. Dishearting to see,
http://oldsite.star-made.org/content/ixi-reapers-ixi-hunter-7-days as searching around on the oldside shows that this guy seemed to be a pretty cool guy and was a man of action, while the new site just shows hate. Actually this is kinda informative, looking at the document on the faction histories showed that they used to do a lot of stuff.
Okay, now I am rambling, I will cut myself off here.
Also Thadius, please less reaction images. Thanks.
[DOUBLEPOST=1447133196,1447132843][/DOUBLEPOST]Ah, meant to add, please keep posting, just don't go around targeting members with vendettas as a new player, it can produce kneejerk reactions and that doesn't help anybody.
But please, keep doing posts like your two cents version.

And ladies and gentlemen here comes the funny rating spam, from Lecic Inc.

Both you and Lecic need to stop picking on eachother.
Lecic, stop.
YarrHarrHarr, stop.
