Yes. Bad press. A bunch of MMORPG sites reposting a blog post from someone who is almost definitely in these threads ranting about how the big bad goonies destroyed their Hulk and it took them hours to get the bot script working again. This is only a scandal in the minds of a bunch of pathetic Cyberstalkers with an axe to grind.
If we can manage to solve this shitstorm without direct CCP intervention, it's another step in the right direction. |

Its about real people.
And real world ramifications.
Its not just about the mittani and whom he tried to lynch mob. Its about anyone else that comes after. Whom might actually be pushed to far.
Mittens went to far and needs to back off and step away from the CSM.
He won, but he then shot his own foot off. He bears the responsibility for his actions.
He sounded like he was on the right path and was going to be a man about it. Now it seems he is backpedaling off of stepping down like he should. At this junction its bad PR for him to be on the CSM for all of EvE at a critical junction for CCP with dust coming out.
His actions ruined what seemed to be a good fanfest as well.

While I wholeheartedly believe we should all support the BDS movement I do not believe that the Mittani should get away with cyber bullying. I care not what the excuses are, Mittani turned up drunk at fanfest then spouted heaps of disgusting rubbish. As a lawyer he should know that being stupid and drunk are no excuses and in fact it makes this case even more severe because this fool knows the law. Thus him not only overstepping the boundaries but actually attempting to ruin the lives of the dearest and nearest of the person he encourages to take his own life is beyond sickening. Before anyone else jumps to the defence of this waste of space, remember that he is a lawyer.
He's more than atoned adequately by apologizing and paying 10.7 bil.
also get over yourself, buhu some miner got bullied big deal and someone drunk at fanfest ? shocking.
PS; he's a former lawyer |

He knows that resigning completely from CSM7 is the right move, but he will not. We will see how CCP responds to this soon I think. He made this presentation in advance, I know this guy, trust me he bullies people if he thinks he can get away with it. I know first hand, having seen it myself in CSM. He excluded me from Skype shat before I ever even made an introduction post. This is how he is, and the real Mittani is the one on stage not the one apologizing in the OP.

I think it's more that he himself doesn't know if he's the "sociopath" Mittani or the "normal" Alex. Split personalities is a very obvious sign of alcoholism and alcohol abuse. I don't know if you've seen the posts talking about how he's an alcoholic with a severe drug abuse problem, but I can assure you that even Mittani doesn't know who he is. Living life in a stupor, drunk all the time and unable to handle alcohol responsibly, such a situation would easily lead him to having a dualist view of who he is.
I think you should forgive him about the bullying he's done to you, and try to contact him and get him to seek some psychological help.
You're right in that he won't resign, and unless CCP is able to step in and get him some help, he quite likely will just continue trying to destroy others in order to salve his own inner issues. |

It's a crime because of it's potential to harm people. Is my point. The fact that everyone who drinks and drives doesn't get in an accident makes no difference. |

I am certain these are not the kind of "gaming ideals" they would encourage as "entertainment" with Eve Online soon to be connected to the Playstation Network.
The Line was Crossed. I'm most certain Sony is meeting AS WE TYPE. IF CCP takes no action to their satisfaction, you may as well kiss that uber-cool EVE/DUST Link good-bye. It matters not what the Goons think, or what the rest of the players think at this point. This is exactly the type of thing that brings businesses down. And we only need to look back 10 months to remember JUST HOW FRAGILE CCP REALLY IS. I'd be real worried about playing EVE on any long term basis depending on how this turns out. I don't think Sony Entertainment would want to advertise connections with Eve Online Community Figureheads who encourage others to harass those with mental difficulties? I think not Sir. Your sarcasm has no place here. The Line was Crossed. |

I think the kid made a stupid, drunk mistake. He was showing his ass, basking in the glory of CSM 7, and embracing his image as 'king of space.' He ran his mouth, and everything went nuclear in the aftermath.
I don't think there's anyone on this board who hasn't done something completely stupid, maybe even hurtful, and wished he/she could take back the action. No one is perfect, and no one has the right to toss stones.
But, this is real life, and we all know once the genie is out of the bottle, you can't put him back in.
I'd like to believe Alex's apology, as I don't know him, and have no reason to believe he's just playing politician. What he did was no more horrible a thing than I've seen other folks do while intoxicated...other perfectly decent, nice, respectable folks who wind up making a dumb error in judgement.
Unfortunately, an apology is not always the sole means of paying your due. I don't think this is a case of it being simply, 'apologize and this will go away.' There are too many other circumstances, too many other issues involved, that have now removed this from a simple incident where an apology would suffice, to a monster fed by public opinion. This has gone corporate, and a more serious show of force will most likely be necessary to appease the masses.
I don't agree with what he said in the panel, or his attitude, but I'm not a hypocrite enough to slam the personal integrity of someone I've never met and call for a crucifiction.
But I don't see him lasting as the CSM chair much longer. Blood is in the water, and the sharks must be fed.
Now it's time to face the consequences.
Good luck, and fly safe. |

Having watched it live on the stream I thought it was pretty tacky. With his apology during soberness I am willing ot bet he realized just how tacky it was and I applaud him for that. I also applaud him for being man enough to apologize and accept responsibility. However, I'm not the man who thinks that laying yourself out in sacrifice is a gesturethat stops the executioner because you were willing to accept responsibility.
If he truly accepts the responsibility then for what its worth, I'll always be impressed with the goon. He'd definitely be a pretty big man for accepting being stripped of his hard won power. |

The Mittani is an online gaming character. I don't care what he does in the EVE universe.
Alex Gianturco is a representive of The EVE online gaming community. His face is the one people will see when they assess this community. He should step down now.

Look at how jealous you are of how impotent you are with Mittens as the CSM chair. No wonder you're a do nothing. You're so intimidated by him that you just look on helplessly as people who can get things done (i.e. Mittens, Vile Rat, Krutoj, Seleene and Elise) get things done. You are the biggest waste of a CSM seat. Hell, Xenuria would be a better fit and probably contribute more than you.

To be honest, the whole "lol im drunk on stage" thing is so tired at fanfest. If you wanna be ******* drunk at 2pm in the afternoon then this is cool and if you can be entertaining at the same time then also cool but the trend seems to be going the other way - being drunk on stage at fanfest make you and the event look dumb. . |

So what, nobody should ever gank anyone ever again? Nobody should shoot freighters off the Jita undock, or go tackle some miners in a belt and blow them up because they might go abloo bloo and kill themselves? No, that's bullcrap. One badly thought out and errant comment does not a resignation make, especially when the person has apologized and paid reparations to the party targeted by that comment.
Also, I didn't see any particular outbursts over the panel until Fanfest was more or less over. Just a few threads going 'wow what a bad alliance presentation. |

As a member of AA.....it is a program of promotion NOT ATTRACTION.
Nobody in AA ever, ever 'converts' or even mentions to someone that they have an 'issue'. That is up for the alcoholic to realize. Talking to a using alcoholic does not work. Never has, never will. I threw myself into a rehab in 1997 by my own hand, nobody else's.
And as an observer of alcoholics for well over 15 years now, I can say that I do believe the mittani (I can't capitalize it after all this) is a black-out drinker.
Whether he is alcoholic to the point of being unable to leave it alone, that is up to him to decide. But by his own words he is a blackout drinker, which is indeed well on the path to full blown addiction.
Next time, type about recovery and AA and things related when you actually know what you are talking about. OMG He Spent His Free-áAURUM ! God is simply-áthe very extraordinary power of the Universe to organize Itself as percieved. -á-á- Lee Smolin "Three Roads to Quantum Gravity" |
