I believe this makes you what non-goons call a "liar". Mudslinging makes you far too similar to real-world professional politicians for my tastes. Thanks for all your hard work grabbing power for an alliance I'm not in though. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

Darius did not breach the NDA. Fact verified by CCP as quoted above.
Whether or not he leaked some info from your super-sekrit non-NDA-covered CSM chat channel is irrelevant. He either breached the NDA, making Mittens right, or he didn't, making Mittens full of ****. As he did not breach the NDA, mittens is indeed full of **** and smearing a candidate like a typical mud-slinging politician is apt to do. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

I'd love to think the world wasn't so used to being spun by politicians that people could still recognize the existence of a fact. Instead, flat-out lies are accepted as "slightly incorrect" (read: mostly factual) because they're spoken by people you support. If CCP isn't the recognized authority concerning the FACT that THEIR NDA was not breached, then exactly who is? Mittens? A bunch of no-life gamers elected to the CSM?
CCP says their NDA was not breached. Therefore, it was not breached.
Mittens says that CCP's NDA was breached, in contradiction to CCP's own official decision on the matter. Therefore, mittens is full of ****. I'm not sure if I can state it in a simpler manner, so if you're still lost, it's a case of hear-no-evil, speak-no-evil monkey business. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

Also irrelevant. The NDA is an agreement between CCP and the individual CSMs. It's not broken until CCP says it's broken.
But hey, if you don't wanna listen to someone you label a "pubbie", and you don't wanna listen to the NDA's author CCP, listen to one of your own, and a CSM to boot:

To above:
Whether a NDA was breached is a LEGAL DETERMINATION. You can have all of the opinions you like, but saying someone breached a NDA is stating a legal fact. When someone is convicted of a crime, then legally that person DID commit the crime. You can ramble on about objective reality and how it relates to philosophy all day, but that does not change a simple fact:
If CCP says the NDA was not breached, then it was not breached.
As for Vile, his expressed opinion is in complete contradiction to HIS OWN WORDS as quoted above. Here, I'll quote it again for those not able to keep up:

That's a legal determination and between CCP and the CSM member. Being a CSM who never participated and was largely AWOL for the vast majority of his term is a bigger reason to not consider him.
Note that I didn't just quote the first sentence as you did. I consider the last sentence far more important. The NDA is a serious thing, but the stuff that we *know* d3 leaked was minor, and was just Mittens talking about leaking fake info to Riverini. If the leak was more substantive, it would have been a bigger issue.
I was quoting what was relevant to the point I was making. The other parts are not relevant, and I don't care if if bothers you that I dropped the irrelevant parts. That's common practice. You quoted the part I did along with other stuff and put a stamp of "TRUTH" on all of it. So now you're backing away from part of it? Part of what your bud said was "less than truth" now?

Karadion wrote:Here's a simple question that Princess can answer. If there is nothing NDA breaching, then are you saying that the entire minutes in that meeting can be given out without question? IE if Darius were to give out the entire minutes under the argument by using their statement that few lines Darius intentionally leaked wasn't NDA breaking therefore the rest of the minutes must not be NDA breaking. Would that still be okay with you? The fact is, Darius did leak specific minutes from a meeting under NDA and the rest of the CSM6 team can't trust him anymore not to leak anymore minutes for his own gain.
Hypothetical question is hypothetical. I won't entertain them and choose instead to look at the factual questions that actually happened.
If a frog had wings, it would not repetitively impact its own posterior. However a frog does not have wings, and the situation you lay out above did not happen and so it does not matter. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

Hey Lyris, glad you could join us. To catch you up to speed, I'll summarize the past few pages:
Where I repeatedly bump The Mittani's CSM election thread...
Where they to do the same...
Where I point out that Mittens is not being factual when he says that Darius III is a "CDA-breaching incompetent" since CCP insists the CDA was not breached and no court has ruled otherwise...
Where they attempt to defend Mittani's slander as expected...
Where I quote their own statements on the subject back to them, in which they agree with me...
Where they get indignant and try to change the subject to Darius III's alleged faults, hypotheticals, and philosophy...
Where I ignore their diversionary tactics and stick to the point... which is that The Mittani is mud-slinging.
Your input? http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

By responding at all to this thread you are giving The Mittani what he wants, which is threefold: first, you are using your time and effort to focus on him and his antics; second, you are keeping this thread bumped so that he maintains popular name recognition and can later point to the length of the thread to gloat about "whining pubbies," "threadnought," and other such things to gloat; third, you are by virtue of the first two points not doing other, more enjoyable things with your time. It is entirely possible that you derive enjoyment and satisfaction from arguing in circles with idiots on the Internet, and if so then more power to you and honestly I'm quite jealous since you've got a goldmine of never-ending bliss at your fingertips; but, if that is not the case, then you are allowing a megalomaniac to dominate your time, effort, and emotions. In short, you are losing by even participating.
I'd suggest that instead of wasting your time, you vote for me.

Maybe I'm just a spai, sent to bump his thread. Ah, wheels within wheels...

Nope. He made an assessment. He is free to do that, and better placed to do so than both of us (unless you're privy to the NDA). You are calling him out as a lier based on CCP saying that they lack proof. This does, however, not mean that there was no breach of the NDA. The worst thing you can call him out for is to not have begun his statement with "In my assessment..." Which, I think, is a rather lame outcall. Again, I don't care, I just think its fun that you holding others to standards in their arguments that you are not able to meet yourself, that is my amusement and only concern in this. So by your argument you are a lying [insert derogatory term here], because you are no able to show the truth of your statement that there has been a lie. I have no doubt that you will now either put your head back into the sand with another statement of, "no, that is not what I said", or once more move the goalpost.
Hmm let's go over this one last time:
As other CSMs have said, and as I have repeatedly quoted them saying, and you have failed to disprove, the determination of whether a NDA is breached or not is a legal question. As such, it is either true because it has been proven at law, or it is not true, because it has not. Think "Innocent until proven guilty" here, as you seem to be having trouble (probably intentionally) understanding this point. As many in this thread have argued, it seems that unless a legal determination has been made that the NDA was breached, it has not been breached. And as there is no such determination, nor is the author of the NDA and alleged "victim" in this incident asserting that there was a breach, we can safely assume that there was no breach. Yet you rant on about the semantics of it all and attempt to invalidate my argument with something akin to "How can we know whether I am the dream of the butterfly, or the butterfly part of my dream?"
You have waxed poetic on the subjects of objective reality, the definition of the word "fact" and other theoretical nonsense in an attempt to muddy the waters and obscure The Mittani's mud-slinging. That's great, and you've done a fine job of it. Hopefully, you are being paid for the service.
Next I expect you will propose an argument on the definition of the word "of" or perhaps continue to paraphrase your undergrad philosophy text. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

If the statements that were "leaked" came from a meeting that was covered by the NDA between CCP and the CSM, then evidence of the leaks (which we all acknowledge exist) would have been evidence of a breach of the NDA. As CCP has clearly stated, they have seen no evidence of a breach of the NDA, therefore, the meeting was not covered under the NDA. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

Yes or no. You have a reading comprehension of a child. Prove me wrong.
Wow. Okay, to clarify for the literalists:

And no. You are making a rather common mistake in the application of innocent utill prove guilty. This applies in the eyes of the law, but does not mean that a thing has or has not happened. Also, it applies in criminal law, which this is not. (You've seen to many cop shows.) That something is a legal issue - like if Marzetti has promised not to pee on your leg or not and whether he has violated that promise or not - does not mean that it may not have taken place unless it has been found to be so by a court. I have never been found guilty of exeeding the speed limit, doesn't mean that I never have. The alleged victime has chosen to say that they lack proof, and apparently in in private that though it was said in a channel where all information was to be considered priviliged under the NDA, that this particular information did not. As a matter of law that is an assessment, and no more. Its not desicive either way.
Oh, and just so no one thinks that I'm claiming e-peen here, I neither hold, nor have I ever studied for, an undergrad in philosophy.
My goodness. If you cut out all of the condescending parts, you're not even left with something funny, just kinda sad.
Again, you're failing to differentiate between a determination of law, which the question of breach clearly is, and a determination of fact. I am not questioning whether someone's leg was peed upon, nor whether information from a chat was leaked. The first I'm sure is true in some context, and the second I can stipulate to. The question is whether Darius III breached his NDA with CCP. That's a legal question, and as CCP has stated they have seen no evidence of a breach, it's safe to assume there was no breach. If there was no breach, which again is a legal question, then Mittani's statement that there was a breach is mud slinging.
You seem stuck on this word "assessment". Relabeling a legal determination made by a non-party does not make it any more valid. It could be my "assessment" that my neighbor trespassed on another neighbor's property. However, when I make the statement "He trespassed", that does not make a legal truth of it. That would be a legal determination. If my neighbor is not alleging trespass, and a court has not found this to be the case, then I can "assess" this all I want. I could have witnessed one neighbor walking on another neighbor's land. But that doesn't mean there was a trespass. Perhaps there was an easement I don't know about.
Your main argument seems to be that The Mittani was not lying, only being ignorant. Either way, politically motivated ignorance is still mud slinging.
Also, when being condescending, please make a better effort to keep your writings clear of obvious errors. Trying to look down on me when you are adding extra Ls to until, Es to victim, Is to privilege, dropping the C in decisive, etc. does little to prove your condescension is valid. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

Vordak Kallager wrote: I think the Goons and everyone else with any kind of common sense has been arguing that the fact that CCP found what D3 leaked to not be NDA-breaking is beside the point. The concern is that D3 willfully and purposefully leaked information from a channel that was clearly defined to be protected by NDA. After the fact, CCP reiterated that the channel was protected by NDA and that nothing from that channel should be leaked.
What does that say about D3's character? He either doesn't hold a lot of regard for NDA, is some kind of billionaire in real life and doesn't afraid of any litigation, or has a distinct and disturbing lack of common sense. I don't find any of those options particularly comforting, especially in someone who could potentially be representing my interests on the CSM.
On a side point, your idea that you can half-quote something like you did with Two Step's post and still retain the entire truth and meaning of his words is ludicrous. Please just remove D3's ******* from your mouth, it'll save everyone a lot of trouble.
I would argue that if the meeting was so clearly covered under the NDA, then Darius would not have "leaked" information from it. That answer seems far more likely than Darius being a billionaire or any of your other theories. Also, I would argue that if it was clearly covered under the NDA, then evidence of the leak would be evidence of a breach of the NDA, and CCP would not have stated that they have seen no evidence of a breach.
Then after he basically told his friend, "Hey they called you an ******* in that meeting" or whatever the "leak" was, CCP clarified that those meetings were indeed covered under the NDA...probably under one of the more sweeping clauses and not specified precisely, and life went on.
My point is that Mittani has turned this into a personal slanderous attack, implying a serious breach of trust that should preclude him from being a CSM. This is clearly false, and clearly mud-slinging.
Also, I'm not here to save you trouble nor to save you from your obvious homophobic issues. But I'd look into that with some self-reflection if I were you. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

Not only is this untrue, but CCP has taken the trouble of pointing out that they have not even so much as seen evidence of it. All arguments to the contrary have been neatly put to bed and it's time that The Mittani come out of the shadows and admit to his slanderous back-biting dirty politics, or expect to lose the vote of all Eve players who are sick of such strategies.

What's most interesting about this statement is that your alliance has spent a lot of effort trying to draw the distinction between your role in-game (dishonest, scammer, etc.) and what you are in real life. It appears that they're wrong about you and we can expect the same things from you as a CSM as we expect in game. All those arguments about how Eve is a sandbox which excuses your in-game behavior and how silly people are for thinking you're not different in real life were for nothing.

I'm an incumbent. You can expect exactly the same kind of stuff from me in CSM7 as you got in CSM6, the most effective CSM in history. I'm delighted to run on my record.
There's an old saying that "you can't make a good deal with bad people." I view a vote for a CSM as a contract between myself and the CSM. You are an admitted sadist, brag about slinging mud as a politician, and draw no distinction between you as a person and The Mittani. Regardless of how effective you say you were as a CSM last year, I feel its only a matter of time before you fall back on who you are as a person and politician. When this happens I think it's safe to say that you'll have no problem with screwing everyone over if you can... Eve, CCP, the players, and those who voted for you. I mean that's what mud-slinging sadists do, right? I'm sure it'll be lol-tastic too.
However, I'd rather vote for someone who is a decent human being to represent me in Iceland. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

In CSM6 I vowed that I would put my skill at raw bastardry to use - to improve the game and make the CSM actually work; I did exactly that. I'm not a saint, an angel, or a ~nice guy~. Those kind of people don't do well in a political group where your task is to influence and persuade others, to cut deals, to think in a Machiavellian manner.
If you think an effective politician is a 'moral' person, well, I know a great guy who can act as a trusted third party if you need to transfer a supercap!
Actually, you're kinda fail as a follower of Machiavelli. To quote The Prince:
"For this reason a prince ought to take care that he never lets anything slip from his lips that is not replete with the above-named five qualities, that he may appear to him who sees and hears him altogether merciful, faithful, humane, upright, and religious."
See, Machiavelli understood that a leader had to APPEAR virtuous, despite his true nature. It's funny you should mention Machiavelli as I was just musing to myself that you must have never read him. You're not going to be elected because you're a master of Machiavelli's teachings. You'll get elected because of the structure of the election and the large voting block you control. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

I hear that this Alexander Gianturco fellow is actually a pretty nice and friendly guy.
So who are we speaking to here. The Mittani, or Alex? More importantly, who are we electing? http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

Ah. That's a bit disappointing.
Well, when you get the only thing that gives your life meaning back up and running, perhaps you could post a list of politicians who -admit- they're mudslingers. There are plenty of mud-slinging politicians out there, but I'm having trouble remembering any of them labeling themselves such. Can you help me out here? Right, not really. I guess most -real- politicians actually read Machiavelli and practice what they learned instead of pretending.  http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

So you found the front page interesting too? I guess so since you had to qualify your attack. So aside from attacking the rest of the blog, what are your thoughts on your boss getting cold-busted lying about being a pro politician who "thinks like Machiavelli?" http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

You're not doing much to garner respect when you lean so heavily on insults and refuse to address the substance. I "tried to" quote Machiavelli? Actually no, I did quote him, and any fool with eyes can see that Machiavelli's instruction regarding appearance directly contradicts your boss' actions. The more mud you sling in an attempt to counter this, the worse you are making him and yourself look. Cranking up the volume doesn't make you right, it just makes you loud.
So do you want to take a shot at disproving my point, or are you going to continue to concede it by falling back on personal attacks? http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

Weaselior wrote: mittani also presumably knows, unlike our dimwitted friend, that machiavellian has a different meaning in common english language than "to the letter follower of machiavelli", it instead refers to a certain disregard for ethics
Hey look, a counterpoint. Thank you for finally putting one together.
Actually, a disregard for ethics would be covered by the definition of "unethical". When you invoke the name Machiavelli, it really does mean the core principles outlined by Machiavelli, especially in The Prince. Perhaps it has been dumbed-down a bit in your circle, but that's not surprising, nor does it validate anything.
Also, pointing to his success as a roleplayer really doesn't invalidate the fact that he's successful DESPITE completely failing to understand and apply Machiavelli. The worst part, however, is when he roleplays that he's actually Machiavellian while his actions directly contradict The Prince. It's not that he's failing to follow it "to the letter", implying a minor deviance from the core concepts. I can break it down further for you if you wish, but frankly the linked dialogue speaks for itself unless you're intentionally trying to pretend otherwise. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

Sure, if you're willing to believe that the third definition in the dictionary is actually the primary, and the primary should be disregarded. 1 is 3 and 3 is 1. Black is white, and white is black.  http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

And I liked the Dog
You'd be wrong him keeping his roles separate. He actually references his CSM candidacy and in-game activities in the same sentence, for example:
The Mittani wrote: "i sling mud, i scam supercaps, and iGÇÖm a sadist, this isnGÇÖt new or particularly interesting"
I believe that parses to "i sling mud [in the election], i scam supercaps [in game scam], and iGÇÖm a sadist [both? not sure], this isnGÇÖt new or particularly interesting"
He goes on to say:
The Mittani wrote: In CSM6 I vowed that I would put my skill at raw bastardry to use GÇô to improve the game and make the CSM actually work; I did exactly that. IGÇÖm not a saint, an angel, or a ~nice guy~. Those kind of people donGÇÖt do well in a political group where your task is to influence and persuade others, to cut deals, to think in a Machiavellian manner.
Now that SOUNDS like The Mittani, his in-game role. But it references the CSM, which is not in-game, and what a "raw bastard" he was and will be in Iceland. How exactly is this approach "different" than how he plays Eve? http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |
