I don't see why a book needs to be written about it seeing as how my Alliance didn't want that Fountain anyways.
Prior to that I was in NCDot when we didn't want Tribute so we let Goons have it while only pretending to fight back also. It's really weird, Goons showing up makes me stop wanting things all the time  |

With this amount of bitterness over a video game that the poster has no tangible stake in, I'm willing to bet that this poster has visited a real life mental health professional at least once. I would pay real life money to have a look at that professional's notes on the encounter lol. |

The amazing thing about this and the other complaints constantly filled here is that these grievances generate enough outrage on the part of the poster to warrant posting about it, trying to get people riled up and in agreement.....
...But somehow this outrageous thing is not outrageous enough to make them want to stop giving this supposedly horrible game company their money. I simply don't get it, people like this are literally saying "I don't trust you because what you are doing si underhanded, , oh and btw heres 15 bucks, enjoy!". |

And if people just came in here making ragequit posts before asking questions and getting answers you'd point out they were being stupid quitting over something they had no proof was even happening. Asking questions about a game you enjoy playing before you rashly quit is a reasonable response Jenn.
You know that the people making the complaints never quit.
On top of that, the OP isn't asking a question, he already believes "foul play" is occurring. And he's said nothing about leaving or refusing to give CCP money. That's the point, if you don't like what a company does (notice the OPs use of the term "double standard"), your choice is 'give them more money/stop giving them money' and that's it.
Threads like these aren't some kind of public service, they are attempts at manipulation, fueled by what looks an awful lot like prejudice against a certain group (Goons) and/or outright jealousy.. The subject under discussion is no one's business except CCP and whatever Mittens wants to call his company.

So it's ok because CCP <3 mittens but didn't <3 Garmon et al.
If that's how they want to do it, then yea it's ok. Their company, their game, their rules, when they do something i don't like i'll stop paying them, if they actually harm me in some way (I don't know how, this is a video game) then i'd sue them in some Icelandic Court.
But this childish attempt at starting some kind of online witch hunt because people don't like some slightly bearded internet dude is stupid. If "EVEiseasy" has a complaint about this, they also should take it up with that Icelandic Court named in the EULA. |

You may like the mittani or like the idea of this book, but even you I would hope, can understand that ccp should not give him special rights to break rules they set up for other players. Rather than disparage people who ask for an explanation, maybe you can explain why what eveiseasy was doing is different than mittani taking money for roams.
I don't know the guy, have never met the guy, and I have been shooting at his Goons in this game since 2008 (and I had jsut join my current alliance right before the war started, so i was only 'blue to Goons' for a few weeks, and even that was hard). I don't care about him and won't be buying his book (when I want to remember the fountain War I'll go back and look at some killmails, i was there).
But that doesn't make me blind to how..wrong..your posting about all this is. It's one or two guys being jealous about what's going on with some other internet guy and then not understanding why the rest of us just don't care. You know you aren't asking a question here, it's plain to see what you think about all this by the very existence of this thread.
TL;DR You have the right to talk about whatever your want to, just don't expect everyone to share your concerns about something that has nothing to do with us. |

Portmanteau wrote:Why the obsession with legalities ? This is surely more to do with the players' perception of whether CCP favours in game players/groups and it's a perception they take seriously, hence the formation of the CSM after T2bpogate.
This "take it up with Icelandic courts" stuff is a massive strawman
To some, everything is a 'strawman'. I'm not trying to deflect anything, I'm saying that if you have a problem with something, do something about it (quit, sue, whatever) or stfu. Worrying about who CCP is favoring is simply evidence of jealousy, and posts like this is manipulations masquerading as questions. Moot questions at that, CCP ain't going to tell you if they give Mittens something more than permission anyway.

The OP just asked a question, you extrapolated that question into some bollocks about taking it to court, nobody has suggested that court is where this should end up, merely that questions be answered.
That's bull. The OP obvious has a problem with all this.
Quote:
It's a total strawman.
The real irony is that you calling this a strawman is in itself a strawman attempt.
Lets be clear. You and the OP can dislike mittani, Goons, CCP whatever all you like. And you can pretend you are simply 'asking a question" when your posting suggests you already "know" the answer. But others of us are just going to call it like we see it.
Quote:
Also you offer a lovely false dichotomy there as well when you suggest that if we don't like something we should quit or sue, how about we exercise a more measured option and just ask what actually happened and then make our minds up ?[/quote[
Now your just lying. like the OP, you mind is already made up and you know it. You wouldn't have posted in the manner you have unless your mind was made up. Your distrust of CCP is showing.
A CCP employer posted in this thread the answer to the OPs 'question', yet the OP does not relent, suggesting that the IOP doesn't trust CCP...
....which come back to my original statement about him (and you): if you don't trust the people you are paying, why are you paying them? If you have to question what they are doing in the 1st place, why are you paying them?

It seems like you have no point to make unless twisting people's arguments into one logical fallacy or another.
I'm not twisting anything. I'm just 'asking a question'......
