Yes they are distinct in EU law. the racial harrassment part of ythe charge was due to the use of the N word. The breach of the communications act charge was the use of the internet to do so.

As for me being a wannabe lawyer no Im not but in my proffessional life I do have to deal with the impact of cyberbullying and yes I have had to deal with the fallout of suicide caused by bullying. I dont guve a damn about him being a goon, I give a damn about somthing that is utterly reprehensible.

Ah josef or should I call you stalin? Personally I spend most of my life correcting spelling and grammar so would rather not have to do it here. I merely responded to someone complaining I hadnt answered their question. Grammatical mistakes are not the issue the incomprehnsible nature of the question was. As I said to Karim ask a question I can understand and I will answer.

I didn't know who this guy was until fanfest. Sure, getting drunk and spouting off like this was inappropriate behavior. He has apologized for it and if he curbs his behavior in the future, done deal. There is no need for him to resign or do anything else that would satisfy certain people's lust for blood.

I am seeing a whole bunch of people on these forums who should be ashamed of themselves. I am very shocked to be reading people actually calling for lawyers and law enforcement to get involved. If you call his behavior wrong, how can you justify trying to ruin this person's life over such a trivial matter? It is trivial.

It is obvious to me that most of you wait for any opportunity to do harm to this guy in real life. All because of this video game.

It appears that people have gone stupid in this day and age.

I should point out I wasn't referring to Alexander Gianturco here, but was gently mocking Daviclond (in case anyone was in any doubt.)

Oh man, my sides! Do you SERIOUSLY think UK Politics work like this? (I can tell because you said whip). They usually apologise, then the story gets spun so hard that nothing of value is lost. That or they get 're-assigned' to a new post. If you still think this happens, then you citizen, have a lot more faith in politics than the majority of others.

Most hilarious part of The Mittani's apology: Where he claims he's a roleplayer.



So he's a roleplayer now? And not only in game, but he's roleplaying on the forums too? Oh wait and Twitter as well. ROFL! Anyone who has seen him and other goons continuously mock roleplayers in general snorted milk out their nose when they read that part. Even if they weren't drinking milk at the time.

Can anyone name other Eve players who also roleplay on Twitter?

No, it's not. Well, not, if I am counted among the idiots (reported for flaming, btw).

I think I'll make a separate post about it, but what I want is an EVE where scamming, baiting, blobbing, ganking, trapping, and using clever tricks is still allowed, where we can have PR wars and gloat on locals about how wonderful players we are, and where there is no guaranteed safety and total opt-out of pvp. I also want an EVE where it is not acceptable behavior to point and laugh when someone is obviously RL upset about losing, to use stage time in a CCP event to humiliate and berate your rivals rather than talk about what you do well, or to flame people on the public forums, and where racist/sexist/homophobic slurs are grounds of immediate warnings and bans.

I do not see those as contradictory. I doubt most of the community does.

the atrocities of the EVE community against the english language in this thread have probably been my favourite bit

Yeah, he apologized to the family, and compensated them for the troubles he caused them with a monetary settlement, and they forgave him for making an ass of himself and all in all it ended pretty calmly and without incident. Seems familiar, at least up until the whole 'forgiveness, ended calmly' part.
