After almost 10 years of playing this game, and yes reading posts for all those years, I decided to write in because of this matter.
First, I would like to say Eve is a great game and I continue to play because of CCP and their abilities to listen and provide great content on occasion. With that cudos out of the way let's get to the point
This year I watched all of Fanfest on live stream and after watching the Alliance Forum this year I must say I found it hard to be proud of the fact I have been a member of Eve Online for almost 10 years based on th actions I saw. I found the forum a waste of my time and it made me sick (or maybe sad is a better word here) to see all the things said and done during the forum event.
I found it sad that the big (and small) Alliances members of this forum felt the need to be drunk in public, use the F-bomb word, say any cuse words the could to grab attention from another forum member, and constantly and basically act like a member of Animal House during a public and streamed event. I love beer, the F-bomb, cusing, and the movie Animal House but there is a place and time that they are appropriate to use those things and act like a high school kid. Passing a bottle of booze around on stage and telling everyone how superior you are to them and telling people to get a life is not what the Forum was for. I thought I would learn something new as always watching this but all I learned is that some people think they are bigger than the game itself and find it funny to make fun of others and push them to the point of no return. Thats not right ad I guess people her agree.
During the broadcast I watched the CCP moderator just stand there but never step in which also pissed me off. I was so stupid and obvious the forum had become meaningless and was just a forum for where each member wanted to bolster his god-like image in Eve. It was obvious that bringing up a specific Eve plauer and calling them out was the wrong thing to do and Im glad CCP did something about it in the end. It was far too late though.
As for Mittens, it was wrong and claiming you dont remember saying waht you did and said that night is just a lame excuse and is no excuse.
Skinny, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life but it seems some people feel it is.
