Dude!! Dont spam my inbox with political "vote for me!!" messages. Thats just a sad way. Its bad enough in the real world when you get those stupid automated calls about elections or the spam election campaign signs that litter your city or town come election day, and thats neverminding the tv commercials and radio announcements.
Seriously NOT IN EVE!!

How DARE they take the initiative to try and make people aware of who they are and what they want to do for EVE and in turn you. And how DARE CCP make it so easy to click delete on such profound mail in less than 2 seconds. |

I opened my mailbox saw Trebor's spam and voted for Seleene instead.
Last year Trebor had my votes and I had expected to vote for him again.
Thanks to the javascript IGB API mass-mailing is pretty easy and you probably won't get CCP to do anything about it. Just vote with your votes.

Yep, same here. I don't use companies who spam me and I sure as hell am not voting for some fuckwit who thinks its acceptable to do the same.
Don't vote for spammers, don't vote Trebor.

Just so everyone knows:
* I collated a list of likely voters.
* I got confirmation from a senior GM that sending political email is perfectly fine, as long as I didn't repeatedly email the same people. Same as last year.
* I sat at the keyboard and sent out the mails using EVE-Gate. It was very boring and tedious -- sort of like mining, except for votes.
* The Mittani was so impressed he tried to pump me for information. I said I'd tell him my secrets after the election is over.

Most of us are so jaded by our own email inboxes that we automatically reject any kind of unsolicited mail as scam. Just what the internet in general, and eve specifically have taught us over the years.
The technical side of it is, admittedly, quite well done, but considering you are not the only one to do it(I got one from Blueberry Bold some 3.5 hours before yours) its more like a sign of badness to come.

I totally agree with this.
Even though this was done by hand a) its still annoying as anything to me as I detest spam of any kind and b) someones going to start spamming evemail boxes soon enough looking for votes.

Woah, you impressed Mittani! Don't dislocate your arm patting yourself on the back there brother. +1 on alienating your voter base though. Needs more spam
CCP and even the CSM have a lot of hardworking men and women who are very intelligent, working on making New Eden a better place-it is CCP management that I fear the most. |

The great and powerful Mittani does not spam you and will not spam you begging for votes. You should reward him for not vomiting all over your inboxes with a vote so that he may be everyones dear leader in CSM 7 |

He only claimed to be contacting likely voters, not voters planning on voting for him.

That is beside the point. Good intentions or not, I don't care for spam.

You missed and the GM is wrong.

Spam is illegal in pretty much any country on the planet. Do not send any mail to me or any alt of mine ever again.
The game has a tutorial that gives you a mining laser and a railgun and tells you to go shoot rocks and red crosses. It teaches you nothing else. It's been that way for 8 years, so are you really surprised that there are people who aren't aware that this is a pvp game? --Jafit McJafitson |

So players that are likely voters are not likely to plan to vote for him?

Sounds like you should contact some unlikely voters and turn them around Trebor :) These folks seem to be all butthurt that you took the time to advertise yourself.

Spam (in this context) - to send unsolicited bulk messages indiscriminately.
Think he said in a previous post that he chose people who he though might be interested, that does not sound indiscriminate to me. Plus he only sent it once which would also imply it's not being sent indiscriminately. |

If you don't want to read a post to your EvEmail box then delete it. It's a system most people have used for years.
Should such a post enrage you rather, than create a thread about it I suggest a more satisfying solution would be to find a good locator agent, track down the offending pilot and liquidate him/her in game.......repeatedly. |

Indiscriminate enough to catch several people who have publicly and loudly stated they were not voting for him, based on posts I have seen and names in the mail sent to me.
