As a man who has made some terrible mistakes when drunk and (mostly) been forgiven and gone on to be a fair and productive member of society, I'd like to see the community stop behaving like a playground lynch mob. Mob mentality is an ugly thing that rarely drives any worthwhile agenda and more often than not simply serves as an excuse for people to excercise the ugly and aggresive parts of their personality without having to be accountable.
CCP is probably feeling aggrieved right now that something they set up with very fine intentions as a benefit for the player base and an important point of contact with their customers has gone so badly teats up.
It's not your fault guys but from now on it probably makes sense to party behind closed doors and get the stuff done that involves the worlds media squared away before the booze starts flowing.
If an event acts as a window into your organisation, you have to have a measure of control over the people that are participating. Mittani may have been representing the playerbase but the outside world will also see him and his companions as representing the company and the game.
I don't want to see the fun sucked out of the world, part of what is great about CCP is that you are not like an ordinary company but more like an extension of the playerbase - FACILITATORS OF THE EXPERIENCE if you like, but the modern world is a judgemental and vindictive creature that is intollerant of that which does not confirm to the norm.
Keep it clean until you want to party, then make sure the doors are closed and the cameras are off. |

I vehemently disagree with your anti-Swayze rhetoric, but your pro-movie-that-has-Henry-Rollins in it rhetoric almost makes up for that |

You realize that that is not real, right? Even if the 92AM didn't tip you off, you can't be that ******** :D "My rule is: If you meet the weakest vessel, attack; if it is a vessel equal to yours, attack; and if it is stronger than yours, also attack..." - Admiral Stepan O. Makarov |

The Mittani told me to post in this thread and then kill myself, true story.
He also regularly posts on jabber so all our spies can leak it to these forums
tl;dr, a box of rocks is more intelligent than your Patrick Swayze disrespecting self |

Jade Constantine wrote: I agree with Elsebeth completely on this point and I think you are being deeply dishonest with the response you gave to that new player Ranger 1.
The situation you describe is the outlook of SA forums and an alien culture that has sought to impose itself on the community of eve online. But its a tiny fraction of the player base regardless of how much noise it makes during these threads on the forums. Most players are not Goons, don't think like goons, and don't act like goons. Despite the way the game has been portrayed by Alexander Gianturco's behaviour at Fanfest the game has not been culturally colonized to the exclusion of all else by this kind of brash sexist, hateful I guess you could say Aris Bakhtanians style outlook.
And more to the point I think that was the precise point CCP themselves were trying to make all the way through the Fanfest presentations. "We play the game hard and ruthlessly but face to face as people we're lovely!" I mean jesus christ, you could practically read that script on the teleprompters for their anchor team.
Its a good line. It harnesses the "core gaming" experience stuff their marketing VP was on about, it differentiates the game from other "soft core" theme park MMOs while still reaching out for subscribers who might have previously been put off by all the horrible behaviour and casual bullying that goes on amongst certain sections of the community.
We blow each others ships to hell every night, but there isn't a call to send people to harress a guy into suicide after you ruin his barge business. I mean how complicated is this stuff really?
Hi Jade, me again. Your massive posts full of words in this thread have on average 1 more like per post than mine which are mostly calling people out on their stupidity. Please explain how this qualifies you to speak "for the people" (without using the words "because goons"). |

*** This was a broadcast from the_mittani to all-all, replies are not monitored *** Sigh, and the ******* publords reign.
Though I have to confess the term makes me smile every time I hear it I should point out to you goons that "publord" is not much of an insult against people from the UK
To be a "publord" suggests to me a particularly respected and/or powerful publican with an excellent establishment that punters considers themselves priviledged to partake of. To explain to our colonial cousins the quirk of language that means the insult doesn't translate too well across the atlantic ... in our country a tavern or bar is generally called a "pub" a landlord or barkeep might be called a "publican" hence a "publord" suggests a rather excellent publican with reason to be proud of his drinking domain.
This public service announcement part of the trolling ProTip series "you're doing it wrong" from Jade Constantine.
