There is no doubt in my mind anymore. Mittani was the one who leaked that internal CCP newsletter.

This can bring more players into the game who are more into the social aspect vs the entire game.

People People People

CCP DO NOT CARE

The ONLY thing that will make the suits at CCP take any notice is people cancelling there accounts and ONLY then if the income from subscriptions and the purchases of PLEX for the use of adding game time continually fall over a period of time.

You can make as many posts as you like on the forums, Alexander 'The Mittani' Gianturco can have his delusions of grandeur and it will NOT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE

You want change, then do the following

1. Go to https://secure.eveonline.com/

2. Log In

3. Click On Game Time

4. Click on Cancel Subscription

5. Give Reason

6. Click on Cancel Subscription

or if you pay via plex - STOP adding game time.

If enough people do this then the suits at CCP might, just might sit up, take the heads out of the arse and take notice but don;t hold your breath

If the game was just all about killing people, by this type barely half the people would have play the game.
Without the social part, there game would have died a long time ago.

This has been unusual. I posted my comments on goonfleet.com and reposted them on Kugu because anything I write is automatically reposted on the GSF-specific Kugu thread within minutes. I had expected to have the CSM spotlight FiS Neglect in about a week, and then do a bunch of grinding work to try to get the media to pay attention to the spotlight.

Instead, my alliance-only statement has created an increasing media buzz all by itself without any effort on my part. I can only take from this that the message itself is something that resonates with most of the playerbase and those who follow EVE.

Looks like we just made Gamespy, too.

Have you not considered the remote possibility that this effort is designed to cause large numbers of people to do just that?

which is why im starting to think the idea that they WANT the whiners to quit so they can put pay 2 win into the game and start over with a fresh new group who dont know better an wont ***** about it

You're confused.

I'm talking about Mittens' effort to turn up the heat.

You're talking about CCP's imagined effort to get rid of paying customers.

The problem with this game is too many people unwilling to take risks that they perceive as large,

Misquoting the movie Cool Hand Luke is a deplorable abomination.

Why are you guys so lazy about typing ****?
Stop with the acronyms already!!!

I was just listening to that radio show. It sounds like this Mitanni guy is trying to win back some people he may have angered? Personally, I don't entirely agree with his opinion. He did say something along the lines of Nullsec being short on ISK and although I haven't dedicated a huge amount of time to Null, one would think this is where most of the ISK is.

And as far as "dying." I saw a large amount of people that disagreed.

It IS funny, Mittens "doesnt speak for the CSM" but none of the other CSM are talking
MORE funny is the title of the window. "Funky talks to Mittens"
NOT "Funky talks to the CSM"

well that's about it for whatever hopeful views of the csm I had. (after listening to the radio broadcast)

They are just a tool for CCP to use, nothing else. Always have been. Good intentions, but expectations and self flattery that has spawned from them defeat it's purpose.

And what I find hilarious are the ones that claim they have 'connections' and pound concrete to the media over these issues.

NO csm, those media outlets have connections with you because they will always try to get you to talk for as you said, website hits. They don't care a bit about you otherwise, or CCP and EVE for that matter.

The EGO that has grown of this group, to think that they have an ability to call for the player base to do something and the crowds will listen and follow, is just unbelievable. The preaching done by mittens and the lot thinking they know what's best for the whole of EVE makes me gag, CCP just needs to yank the CSM program and wipe it's hands of it.

He ordered goons to vote for him?

/yawn

Who cares anyways?
When the game no longer is fun for you, find something else. When I finally get bored, I'll move on, until then, this is just stupid e-drama, and an ego boost for the members of the CSM for their illustrious non-positions within the community.

calling it now, Mittani is gonna ditch the whole "0.0 lobbying" thing and go straight to campaigning on a pro-PI platform.

I remember myself and hundreds of others saying a lot of the things Mittens is saying now months ago.

Why is this news now?

Sudden power vacuum in 0.0? How about increased capacity of DRF to hold all of 0.0.

Oh come on

Mittiani has opened his big mouth and put his foot in it

Now he is trying to backtrack

He is full of s*** , and knows little about the playerbase and has only the interests of the Goons at hand, you only need to see his views on WH space to see this

hmm. maybe the management hasn't yet realised that eve is real?

This thread has degenerated into goon hating personal insults from bitter vet alts. It really should be locked and pinned as an example of how posting should not be done.

So many dev posts on the new forum , stranglly the thread that has more pages and more views , gets nothing.

I would love if some dev came here and trolled the **** of us all and mitt in particular, becausenow it is too late to try and "save" eve , after all the people said months ago.
