Myz Toyou Bite Me inc Exhale. 32	Posted - 2012.03.07 13:18:00 - [31] - Quote Trebor Daehdoow wrote: 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. I replied you with the advice to eat a big pile of cat poo, danm spammer. No votes for you. edit: Bon Apetit
Sasha Azala Blood and Decay 60	Posted - 2012.03.07 13:21:00 - [32] - Quote Tallian Saotome wrote: Sasha Azala wrote: 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. 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. Well you don't expect him to get the target audience always right do you? Plus as it's only 1 EVEmail, it take but a second to delete it and you don't even need to open it.

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.

I know I certainly can barely contain myself around these forums. Seeing as everyone and their dog posts about crap on here they like or dislike. Well I happen to DISLIKE political messages of any kind. Whoever believes whatever it is.... to me its SPAM nothing else. Yes it got deleted as soon as it was opened and I realized what it was. Then I posted cuz I know that there are others that share this sentiment. I hated it in Jita... I hated it in the mission hubs... I hated it on the forums. Especially because its political in nature. Politics to me is like watching grass grow... or watching the special Olympics... no matter who wins theyre still retards!! Yes its a bad joke but thats the way I feel about ALL politics. One of the main reasons I avoid Null. Cant stand the bullshit. Strength isnt measured in numbers but in force of will. For if one motived willful individual stands many will fall around him that are weak. http://tinyurl.com/YarrFace

Not quite. This was no different from finding your real life mailbox stuffed with adverts for useless junk you couldn't care less about. I wasn't a fan of Trebor before and after this, definitely not a fan of his. Reeks of desperation. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more

I worked for 6months in marketing, I know the law. Trebor is in the US, to which the CAN-SPAM act of 2003 defines it's scope as "electronic mail" later in the act it simply calls it "email" It's worth noting that it defines a spam message as: Quote: any electronic mail message the primary purpose of which is the commercial advertisement or promotion of a commercial product or service (including content on an Internet website operated for a commercial purpose). I didn't see where Trebor was offering you a commercial service or otherwise promoting a commercial product. It also deliberately states that the content is exempt from falling under the CAN-SPAM act if it contains political messages. You seem to think spam laws stop you from receiving any message you didn't want to receive, this is not the case. Spam laws (regardless of country) do no such thing; they all define what a "commercial electronic mail" is (i.e. define the scope of the object the legislation covers) and then gives you a specific list of what you can and cannot so in them. Since I cannot find any bill that refers to messages sent by evemail, none are applicable. n.b. - you may want to read the laws in question. - "Do not touch anything unnecessarily.

JC Anderson Noir. Noir. Mercenary Group 197	Posted - 2012.03.07 15:58:00 - [50] - Quote Nothing new. Ankhesentapemkah made HEAVY use of mass evemail'ing during that particular election. And she won with the second highest vote count, so I guess it worked. Though, what happened AFTER she was elected was another situation entirely.

Will the audience be cheering or jeering? I think that is going to be one of the highlights of the event. Pilots of New Eden unite! We have nothing to lose but our chains!

To fix this you start sending out political spam and in short order you got several threads on GD a 84,000 AUR ($420) spent on NeX store for Troll and Profit.

Oh and if you think anyone believes that you did this manually then you're quite delusional. Don't vote for spammers, don't vote Trebor.

I wasn't a fan of Trebor before and after this, definitely not a fan of his. Reeks of desperation. You are correct, this is no different than finding junk mail in a RL mailbox, or watching your junk mail folder fill up in your outlook. Because of this I treated this evemail no differently. I glanced at it and moved on. It didn't make me cry like a little girl. I didn't feel the urge to throw a tantrum due to some inanimate objects mere presence. I didn't even really bother reading it. I just continued with my life. This has left me at a crossroad however. Do I vote for Darius for scamming stupid people into giving him free publicity, or do I vote for Trebor for inadvertently pissing off the thin skinned sensitives?

Everyone mail him back 9 times. Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing.
