Entire thread seems preplanned to fish for gushing "no please don't resign zomzombbzbz we love yous"
Doesn't really matter, the typical american response of throwing a fake apology and some money at a problem and making it go away probably isn't going to play in a game with a global perspective. The I was drunk and didn't realize angle isn't going to play either. It was a side show, it was made ahead of time. If you can get ****-faced and modify a powerpoint presentation on the fly, well hats off to you.
CCP is going to have to show off for papa Sony and this guy is going to be punted.
The whole ccp "investigation" angle is hilarious, what specifically is there to investigate.. they were right there.. present, and broadcasting it. Its like a cop being an eye witness at a crime and when asked what happend, shrugging.
I didn't know Wis before this but I started a dialogue with the guy after the alliance panel. It made me sad to see how open his life and information is out there on the internet. His biggest crime appears being a decent person who expects other people to be decent, obviously had no idea what he would eventually run into in Eve Online. Having watched the downward spiral of the community culture over the years I am not surprised that something like this happend. It is actually happening every day just not as publicly celebrated. Griefing players within the confines of the game is fine, I have no problem with that and I don't think most of the playerbase does. The wider this thing goes the better. More unsuspecting players toiling around high sec not bothering anyone or doing anything to ruin someone else's game will get a better idea of the reality of Eve before this happens to them and if nothing else folks, FFS, safe guard your identity, just a lil.
A clear line needs to be drawn between the game and real life however. Searching people down online and using it for fodder to fuel your ingame cruelty has no place in any game and the fact it isn't even rare in Eve demeans all of us.
