It's really simple actually. It's fair, just and lets everyone provide their input and have their say.
If you really, truly, deeply honestly believe that The Mittani was wrong by what he said while drunk at a party in Iceland do this:
Don't vote for him when he runs for CSM 8.
If the majority of the player base don't like him, well hey, he won't get in and everything will be sunshine and rainbows.
That sounds fair doesn't it?
WI used to be such a cool alliance what happened? diminished to a pet corp.
Alexander has been dumb hes going to have to take his medicine. Maybe if he hadnt whored himself to every gaming site doing interviews and presenting himself as the face of the Eve player base the medicine wouldnt taste so bad. Maybe if his ego hadnt been so puffed up with self importance by his percieved role people would be more sympathetic.

Do you have literally everyone else in this thread on ignore because you just seem to pop in, make a random, moronic comment with no relevance to the current topic of discussion then leave. Also I'm still only seeing 4 minor articles about this on a google news search for eve or eve fanfest and nothing outside the gaming press and the comments are mixed. I'd hardly call that a PR disaster.

thats a bit old and the comments arnt mixed
dunno if it leaked outside gaming press sofar , but as soon as one picks it up it will spread

Just about everyone I've shown it to thought that even the public apology was going too far for what was said and they're subbing up to support him. Don't spend all that Moon goo in one place....Mittens may need it for Damage control..... If I were getting plex out of moon mining I sure wouldn't be supporting the nerfing of tech as much as I do. That's just stupid and irrational. This may be some sort of shock, but there are people who pay for their accounts.

So what happened exactly? Mittani mocked a guy in RL... no, strike my last, he mocked him on a game-related convention in RL for something he did to him in the game. That's a little low, but no big deal really.
Don't you dare resign over this. Even though I agree that two step would probably be a good chairman too. |

Sum up, he had too many drinks prior and during the alliance board presentation at fanfest. During which, he brought quotes of "carebear tears". This in itself is not the bad part, but mentioned suicide and during the Q&A on the stream, he said people should make him kill himself, gave the user name and told people to grief. Sarcasm, but EULA issues, people having stronger opinions, etc |

No matter what you feel about Mittani or what he said, don't forget DUST comes out pretty soon.

You know, all that sexy DX11 tech and whatnot. This flamewar is getting absurd, and while I originally posted my opinions, it's an internal matter for CCP, and whatever is said for and against Mittens retaining the Chair won't matter in the end. Just because CCP stroked your ego at FanFest, does not mean you Goons own the game. Be proud while you can, but don't fly too close to the sun, that epeen of yours might just melt. |

Fortunately it is 2012 and most gamers will find their gaming related news from sites such as those, blogs and other discussion portals. A few of the more prominent MMO bloggers have picked it up as well. I don't think this is something that will be picked up by the mainstream media though. |

it is an ingame issue. it was said at an event where they're encouraged to talk about their game life. Its hard to completely seperate your ingame character with real life personality sometimes. What is said on teamspeak isnt in game. does that mean when i say i'm going to go kill that guy on teamspeak i'm threatening his real life body? No.
And the only reason you're all here is because you're abusing The Wis's personal problems for your own selfish reasons. namely, to remove mittani from csm like you've all been trying and plotting to do for years.
you've all abused the wis, and exposed him to far more ridicule then mittani ever did.

I'll put em to to good use. I for one am glad to tell people I play this game. It's the only MMO that remotely has a community like this, that are not afraid to take a stand on any issue or any side of an issue. It's one of the many reasons I love and will continue to play this game. My only regret is that I sold some characters that I never should have sold, and never should have taken "I quit" breaks, because those are pointless. The game is just too good to quit, no matter what issues or what have you come up.
In fact, the only result this ridiculous little dust devil of pompous outrage over a drunken joke is accomplishing is tarnishing EVEs "You have to be tough, thick skinned, and ruthless to play EVE" reputation.
Instead you are making the EVE community look like a bunch of Second Life rejects with delusions of grandeur, while patting yourself on the back for "bringing to justice" a "psychopath" whose only crime was to get drunk and make a bad joke that tortured the victim enough to force him to remark the equivalent of "I've been Cyber what-ed?"
It's being dealt with by those affected, everything else is just an attention grab. When I check troll in the dictionary, it has a photo shopped picture of you standing somewhere in the vicinity of a point.
Also, I can kill you with my brain. |

Quote:"Cyberbullying" is when a child, preteen or teen is tormented, threatened, harassed, humiliated, embarrassed or otherwise targeted by another child, preteen or teen using the Internet, interactive and digital technologies or mobile phones. It has to have a minor on both sides, or at least have been instigated by a minor against another minor. Once adults become involved, it is plain and simple cyber-harassment or cyberstalking. Adult cyber-harassment or cyberstalking is NEVER called cyberbullying.

Hate to be that guy, but THIS. Not to mention the fact that Mittani also has been "harassed" multiple times in this thread, yet I don't see anybody crying out "cyber-bullying" on that...
By blowing this out of proportion the Eve community has done far more damage than Mittani on his own did, this thread should've been locked hours ago. |

but saying he wants to resign and then not do it if he don't removes whatever credibility he have left after that stunt. |
