This is not a CSM issue.
Mittens was on the panel not as the chairman of the CSM, but as the leader of Goonswarm. And the leadership of Goonswarm routinely tells people to kill themselves.
Not seeing an issue. |

Not seeing an issue. do they really "routinely" tell people to kill themselves irl?
Actually, yes. Yes they do. "Kill yourself irl" is a thing you see goons, esp Mittens, say all the time. |

Your point? Why do you care if I tell another goon to kill himself, or that his post was so bad that I'm going to kill myself?
I don't. I don't care at all, in fact I've come to expect it from goons.
Hence why I don't see what the fuss is about what Mittens said at the panel. My point was that it'd be hypocritical to be upset over that and not over goons posting "kill yourself irl" on various fora. Which, for the record, I don't think anyone should be. |

And indeed I would not. It's just words.

And indeed I would not. It's just words. Walk up to a real goon at a bar this weekend, if you're old enough to drink, and tell him with all heartfelt sincerity he should kill himself because he's a waste of space. Go on....see what happens. That's my whole point..in the real world there are grown ass consequences for talking this kind of sht to people.
Honestly, if I walked up to a goonie and told him to kill himself, while grinning the same grin that Mittens grinned on the panel, I'm pretty confident it'd get laughed off. I'd probably even get laughed at.
Goonies, back me up here. |

Do you feel that this will help you in your goals to make eve a better place for miners? I too am curious what possessed Issler to run off and make this thread without consulting the rest of the CSM about how to approach MittaniGate. It would have made a lot more sense for them to discuss the situation privately, decide what they were going to do (after seeing what CCP wanted/required out of the situation)) and then make a united public front about the post. Having one of them run off and immediately condemn her fellow CSM member's actions (while arguably morally justifiable to an extent) is not a very politically thought out move. Is Issler really so quick to stab her fellow CSM in the back? She has to work with the rest of the CSM for a year, and I don't think this is a very good way to start off for her. They probably see her as some kind of rogue element that does whatever she wants for her own purposes. Not a very good first impression. But, you know, to each their own or whatever.
You mean this isn't the official CSM response?
Wow. I'd assumed it was, since, you know, it has CSM stamped all over it.
Ball = dropped, well done Issler. |

Calling for someones death and harrasing someone is totally different. He didn't say "Go round his house and kill him".
No he basically did exactly that, he said find him and drive him to suicide. Your just quibbling semantics when the end result would have been similar had the community not gotten up in arms about it. Its not funny. Its not excusable.
Since when has Goonswarm ever been funny or excusable? |
