That's it. I have a horrible feeling this may well be true. It would not excuse in any way what mittens said, but it is the most likely explanation for the massive reaction to the unfortunate event. GǪespecially since the reaction was delayed by three days until it was clear that the CSM had a goon chair once again.

Let us know when two and three are done.
One is done, both here and to the miner. Three is done. Two takes a post, and I should probably discuss it with the CSM before I mash butan. I think Two Step would make a fine Chairman, though.

All of it.
This has been blown way out of proportion. Some of you guys have totally lost it. I think internet spaceships are a serious a biz as anyone, but wtf... it's still internet spaceships. Relax, take a deep breath, and go pod yourselves. People say stupid **** drunk all the time, myself included. I can separate the dbaggery I engage in while playing eve from RL... but I've never hung out with other eve people and while I sometimes drunk post on the forums those transgressions of character are easy to ignore because I'm only Gogela.
The apology is fine. Who cares anyway? Whether or not there was an EULA or TOS violation is up to CCP to determine and nothing changes what was done... but in principal from what I gathered its not that big a deal just tasteless. Let up already. I'd rather talk internet spaceships and these stupid treads are burring the useful stuff.

Am surprised Alex got into **** about some drunk stunt he pulled off at the appropriate place for it. As far as the footage goes, it could have went up with the name being covered up and beeped, seeing as it somewhat violated privacy or something.
I frankly dont see what Alex did wrong, if I would believe every person who claimed to be suicidle on the Internet, to be true, well that just makes the numbers close to population of New Zealand.
And just like the church, I disapprove of any suicidle tendencies and I be damned if I should feel pity for those selfish people who do it or claim to want to do it, and I suggest the person who complained about this case to re-evaluate his morales. |

since he postet AS THE real person that apology, you goons should stop posting and let it work the way it will, or not

The Mittani wrote:This has been hanging over my head since Thursday when I stumbled away from the Alliance Panel with a vague sense that I had done something horrible. I didn't know the extent of how much of a shitheel I had been until today, when footage of the presentation went up. As many of you now know, I gave out the in-game character name of a Mackinaw miner if anyone had wanted to blow him up - except that I was so smashed that I didn't recall exactly what I said (as anyone who was there can tell you). When I came to the forums the other day and saw threads complaining about my behavior - not remembering what I'd said - I assumed that I was enduring the usual anti-Goonswarm trolls, and posted something like "deal with it~" in my usual "The Mittani" way.
Then I landed, and saw the article listing my actual quote.
Christ.
I feel absolutely ashamed of my behavior at the Alliance Panel. It's one thing to play a villain in an online roleplaying game - when I post on these forums or on twitter, I usually do so as 'The Mittani', and do my level best to convince everyone that I'm an unrepentant space villain, as that kind of facade provides an in-game advantage to me and my alliance. But I am not that character in real life, as anyone who has met me can attest. I went way, way, /way/ past the line on Thursday night by mocking the Mackinaw miner at a real-life event. I, as a person, am not the entity that I play in EVE; I am not actually a sociopath or a sadist, and I certainly don't want people to kill themselves in real life over an internet spaceship game, no matter what I may say or do within the game itself. CCP may say 'EVE is Real', but EVE is not real - and the line between the game and reality should not be overstepped.
I'm relieved to discover that the Mackinaw miner is doing fine and mining away, despite being blown up by Goonswarm in-game. He deserves, and he has, my heartfelt apologies - here in public as well as a private apology. There's no excuse for what I did - while some might try to use my inebriation as a mitigating factor, I put myself in that compromised mental state, and the guilt of that is entirely mine.
If I could go back in time and not have included the slide mentioning the miner, I would do so. While the Eve Online character "The Mittani" would never apologize for any sort of villany in game, I myself, as Alex Gianturco, feel utterly ashamed and sickened by my behavior.
Sir,
This post was exactly the right thing to do.
You again have my support as chairman of CSM 7. I look forward to working with you.

I can barely tell what's worse, The Mittani being a huge inappropriate douche on stage or people (people on the CSM even!) trying to take advantage of it for their own politcal agendas. Jesus christ, it's like a complete ******** convention, everyone are ******** egomaniacal turds. |

I think it's more a case of the majority of folks not having the time to watch the live feeds, and it not being on CCP youtube channel yet. They're now catching on and realising what happened.

NO. You made a mistake and you are making amends for it. While I am the first one to talk about how perception is reality and that you have to avoid the appearance of impropriety, this situation has NOT escalated to the point where that is an appropriate responce. Had the person taken action on his threat: yes. Had he actually been upset or effected by your comments.. also yes. But that isn't the situation you are currently in. What is left is that you made some generally socially unacceptable comments, for which you have apologised deeply. Unless CCP is demanding your head on a platter, I think that resigning is an extreme action and inappropriate at this point in your mandate to say the least.
Stop, take a step back, take a day or two and let this **** calm down (IE: you to calm down). If you still feel that resigning is the only appropriate response and your presence as the head of the CSM will only further hard CCP or EVE.. THEN resign. Right now you are making an emotional and grand gesture which is nothing more than just that, a gesture. Manning up also means taking your lumps and continuing on.

Often times suicidal tendencies are brought about by severe depression.
You can't simply decide "oh I have depression, I shouldn't kill myself" when those thoughts start to invade your head.
If you have evidence to the contrary, please write it down and collect your Nobel Prize. |

As an alt of PL/Raiden/NCDot I also went out and created manufactured rage for all the electronic sheep out there by contacting every single online news site I could to create bad publicity for CCP over this. Although only a handful of the thousands out there took my bait, it was enough for me to create circular links and feedback from these forums to give credibility to the story. But I'm definitely only doing this because of my moral superiority (even though the victim doesn't mind), and not as metagaming revenge because titans are getting nerfed and I blame Mittens. |
