Though I have received many letters of support (my inbox is full of these, and for them I thank you) and the major bloggers have called for me to remain on as Chair, there are still some who doubt the sincerity of my apology to the player concerned, who - unlike those attempting to make hay from my mistake - is the person that matters here. I said that I would resign; to demonstrate the sincerity of my words and my apology, I will do just that.
With the increasingly high profile of the CSM in the wake of the Incarna Emergency Summit and the amazing turnout we had for the CSM7 elections, I have come to the conclusion that my two roles in EVE - that of the Chairman of the CSM as Alexander Gianturco, and the leader of Goonswarm as "The Mittani" are increasingly incompatible. It is, fundamentally, a problem of hats.
As the leader of Goonswarm I must be willing to make ruthless decisions and take actions that many players find objectionable - griefing, ganking, scamming, 'dishonorable' fleet tactics, espionage, metagaming, blowing up everyone who tries to mine Gallente Ice, sponsoring Hulkageddon, et cetera - whatever it takes to defend my people in this, the most exceedingly hostile galaxy to grace the internet. As Darius JOHNSON, the previous Goonswarm leader once said, "[Goonswarm] is not here to destroy /the/ game, but /your/ game.
Yet as Chairman of the CSM and Alexander Gianturco, I need to put a good face on CCP's experimental player democracy and keep my nose clean. Inevitably, these two roles conflict with one another; when Goonswarm does what it does in EVE, this reflects on the CSM as a whole, purely due to my position as both Chairman and alliance leader. If I abandon the brutalist tactics of an alliance leader in hopes of keeping the CSM's image pristine, I hamstring my people ingame and do a disservice to the line members who rely on me. In addition, the enemies of Goonswarm assault the CSM and CCP itself unfairly due to the in-game actions of our alliance.
After the successful restructuring of CCP, I am convinced that most of the hard work of the CSM is already done - CCP is now focusing on spaceships instead of avatars, and the success of CSM6 has led to a solid and competent crop of player representatives in CSM7 with a much greater turnout, demonstrating ever-more faith and trust from the playerbase in the concept of the CSM. This changes things for the CSM, as well as the Chairman title
During Goonswarm's highly successful Gallente Ice Interdiction there were calls for my resignation as Chairman; those calls increased when Goonswarm began to use false supercap sales as a method of closing the gap between us and our in-game enemies' supercap fleets. We are now planning an attempt to destroy Jita itself. All of these actions are entirely legitimate within the brutal world of EVE, yet, in the coming months, if I continue to hold the title of Chairman, CCP will be enduring one PR nightmare after another as Goonswarm's in-game actions unfairly reflect back upon the CSM as a whole through the Chairman title. It is increasingly important that the Chair be a GÇÿgood citizenGÇÖ in the game itself - and I cannot be a good citizen and simultaneously lead my alliance of magnificent bastards.
With CSM7's term beginning on April 4th, I now exercise my right as the winner of the election with 10,058 votes to decline the office of Chairman. It will then be up to CSM7 as a group to decide how to proceed regarding the Chair. As a member of the CSM without a title, what I do as the leader of Goonswarm will no longer unfairly reflect on the CSM as a whole - leaving me and my people free to do as we please without needing to consider corporate, political, or media ramifications every time we make a **** joke, offend someone, or sell a supercap made of vapor. The Mittani, CSM7: Vote Here - One EVE. One Vote. One Chairman

This is a cynical half hearted gesture that rings very hollow. You have brought disgrace on the CSM, CCP and the Eve community in general. While I suppose it is "better than nothing" it does not undo the damage you have caused us all. Stepping down entirely is the only way to remove the stain of your poor judgement.
I ask you to look beyond your power mad aspirations and do the right thing for us all: Step down from the CSM so that we can begin the healing process and get some closure. Mainstream gaming media will adore you for it and the players will rejoice. Merely abdicating the Chair is a token gesture that will be viewed with cynicism not from just your detractors, but by everyone who is familiar with who your really are. I am outraged that you think this does anything to address the severity of what you have done to us all.
Instead of this token gesture, if in fact this what you think will atone for what you have done-do something meaningful and quit the the Council completely so that the CSM may once again enjoy the respect of the player base. I urge you to take into account the bigger picture and for once-do the right thing. Your full resignation is the one and only this that will set this right. CCP has rededicated themselves to improving Eve and are by and large doing a terrific job at it. My personal faith in them is largely restored. I think the coming changes will revitalize Eve and bring joy to the masses. |

Disappointed, but respect your decision.
Glad you're staying on CSM, I think the effort you've put into it should be making headlines, not a mistake, one which you own.
Please continue the good work with the game designers and CCP. You seem to be one of the more knowledgeable leaders in EVE with a good group of resources at your disposal. This is what we voted for, someone who can pull that together.
Do EVE Online a favor and run for chair next year.

Mainstream gaming media will adore you for it and the players will rejoice. Merely abdicating the Chair is a token gesture that will be viewed with cynicism not from just your detractors, but by everyone who is familiar with who your really are. I am outraged that you think this does anything to address the severity of what you have done to us all.
Instead of this token gesture, if in fact this what you think will atone for what you have done-do something meaningful and quit the the Council completely so that the CSM may once again enjoy the respect of the player base. I urge you to take into account the bigger picture and for once-do the right thing. Your full resignation is the one and only this that will set this right. You know, when Mittens posted this thread, he let us know on Jabber, along with a personal CEO update for us to read (and someone else to leak to EN24 later :v:). That's how WE knew it was there.
In order for you to have posted a reply so quickly, you must be sitting at your computer for hours on end, F5ing this and other forums, simply so you can ~get your word in~. I pity you. Go outside. |

It's the right decision for him, the community, the CSM, and our friends at CCP.
I look forward to serving with Alex on CSM7.

Truly, for what it is truly worth, I think those that have acted despicably here - in this scenario - are not the members of Goonswarm or the Clusterfuck or Mittens himself, but those that have nurtured this little pearl of hatred for Mittens. The people who have acted despicably are not those who have spoken jesting comments about Mittens' words at fanfest, or about some pathetic threat of meta-suicide, but those that have used this thing for political gain.
The despicable I name as people like Jade Constantine, Darius III, Issler Dainze.
You are reprehensible examples of humanity.

Merely abdicating the Chair is a token gesture that will be viewed with cynicism not from just your detractors, but by everyone who is familiar with who your really are. I am outraged that you think this does anything to address the severity of what you have done to us all.
Instead of this token gesture, if in fact this what you think will atone for what you have done-do something meaningful and quit the the Council completely so that the CSM may once again enjoy the respect of the player base. I urge you to take into account the bigger picture and for once-do the right thing. Your full resignation is the one and only this that will set this right.
Any chance you could maybe not communicate with the rest of the world for a bit? You can say allot of about the Mittani but he never played the CSM as part of the metagame like yourself....or broke any NDA's. |

I like you.

He placed 14th. All he needs to be on the csm is for everyone that is currently CSM to suffer a stroke at the same time and be unable to travel. They'd still be able to use bigger words than him, but the not traveling part would be enough. |

By Mittens not taking the chairman role this simply means that the role will have no purpose. Leadership requires a certain talent that frankly does not often come along in a game that is filled mostly with, how do you say this nicely... socialy challenged middle aged men.
Besides lets be serious for a moment, its not like CCP is going to listen to some halfwit NDA breaking asshat who THINKS he has a purpose in life.

"Something something NDA breaking something I'm mad at Mittens again."
Just for the record though, nobody actually has any respect for you specifically, as D3. Perhaps you should consider stepping down too?
It's cute how you think that this attempt at political wrangling on your part isn't an obvious troll, or a blatant showing of your hate for The Mittani, or a way to use the situation as an excuse to wave your e-peen around.
If I haven't been clear enough, your breaking of the NDA was a betrayal of the player base. If you're really behind this idea of yours, I suggest you step down first. |

The people who have acted despicably are not those who have spoken jesting comments about Mittens' words at fanfest, or about some pathetic threat of meta-suicide, but those that have used this thing for political gain.
The despicable I name as people like Jade Constantine, Darius III, Issler Dainze.
You are reprehensible examples of humanity. You are disgusting, hate-filled monstrosities who are ready to use the publicised mental instability of an unfortunate person in order to get a leg up over someone who has angered you so.

The Mittani wrote:Though I have received many letters of support (my inbox is full of these, and for them I thank you) and the major bloggers have called for me to remain on as Chair, there are still some who doubt the sincerity of my apology to the player concerned, who - unlike those attempting to make hay from my mistake - is the person that matters here. I said that I would resign; to demonstrate the sincerity of my words and my apology, I will do just that. With the increasingly high profile of the CSM in the wake of the Incarna Emergency Summit and the amazing turnout we had for the CSM7 elections, I have come to the conclusion that my two roles in EVE - that of the Chairman of the CSM as Alexander Gianturco, and the leader of Goonswarm as "The Mittani" are increasingly incompatible. It is, fundamentally, a problem of hats. As the leader of Goonswarm I must be willing to make ruthless decisions and take actions that many players find objectionable - griefing, ganking, scamming, 'dishonorable' fleet tactics, espionage, metagaming, blowing up everyone who tries to mine Gallente Ice, sponsoring Hulkageddon, et cetera - whatever it takes to defend my people in this, the most exceedingly hostile galaxy to grace the internet. As Darius JOHNSON, the previous Goonswarm leader once said, "[Goonswarm] is not here to destroy /the/ game, but /your/ game. Yet as Chairman of the CSM and Alexander Gianturco, I need to put a good face on CCP's experimental player democracy and keep my nose clean. Inevitably, these two roles conflict with one another; when Goonswarm does what it does in EVE, this reflects on the CSM as a whole, purely due to my position as both Chairman and alliance leader. If I abandon the brutalist tactics of an alliance leader in hopes of keeping the CSM's image pristine, I hamstring my people ingame and do a disservice to the line members who rely on me. In addition, the enemies of Goonswarm assault the CSM and CCP itself unfairly due to the in-game actions of our alliance. After the successful restructuring of CCP, I am convinced that most of the hard work of the CSM is already done - CCP is now focusing on spaceships instead of avatars, and the success of CSM6 has led to a solid and competent crop of player representatives in CSM7 with a much greater turnout, demonstrating ever-more faith and trust from the playerbase in the concept of the CSM. This changes things for the CSM, as well as the Chairman title During Goonswarm's highly successful Gallente Ice Interdiction there were calls for my resignation as Chairman; those calls increased when Goonswarm began to use false supercap sales as a method of closing the gap between us and our in-game enemies' supercap fleets. We are now planning an attempt to destroy Jita itself. All of these actions are entirely legitimate within the brutal world of EVE, yet, in the coming months, if I continue to hold the title of Chairman, CCP will be enduring one PR nightmare after another as Goonswarm's in-game actions unfairly reflect back upon the CSM as a whole through the Chairman title. It is increasingly important that the Chair be a GÇÿgood citizenGÇÖ in the game itself - and I cannot be a good citizen and simultaneously lead my alliance of magnificent bastards. With CSM7's term beginning on April 4th, I now exercise my right as the winner of the election with 10,058 votes to decline the office of Chairman. It will then be up to CSM7 as a group to decide how to proceed regarding the Chair. As a member of the CSM without a title, what I do as the leader of Goonswarm will no longer unfairly reflect on the CSM as a whole - leaving me and my people free to do as we please without needing to consider corporate, political, or media ramifications every time we make a **** joke, offend someone, or sell a supercap made of vapor. You have won my respect, for what it is worth. This is probably the single most articulate discussion of the current fiasco, and I thank you for the time you took writing this. While ingame, my character is hellbent on the destruction of the Goonswarm, I cannot state enough how much respect I have for you as a player and as a human being. What you have done with Goonswarm for ingame RP is beyond expression, and makes EVE the best damn game out there. Thanks to you, there is legitimate cause for ingame RP warfare, and that is just awesome. You show true dignity in declining the CSM Chair, and wisdom in understanding the "hat" problem. I applaud you, sir.
All this coming from a four year pubbie. Don't think so little of us, and you might be suprised. |

don't see why everyone's so butt hurt by this...
This is something that needed to happen and i respect the man for actually going through with it. His actions and his mouth were that not of what CSM chairman should be. He realized this and decided that after all of what had happend it was the right thing to do. I feel this is a better for the gamers in the long run and several people if not Thousands will see this as well.
Hopefully the chair is filled by someone a little more competent and worry's more about the game in a whole as opposed to how their going to stop the inevitable loss of their region.
See you on the battlefield (hopefully), and from a player and person standpoint, thanks for doing the right thing..finally. Constantinee video archive. http://www.youtube.com/user/Constvids?feature=mhee

No it wouldn't be unfair. it happens all the time. when ppl are elected and **** up they are often forced to resign completely.
this is just some half arsed attempt to close the case and walk on without any real consequences towards Mittens.
i pity you Mittens for being so weak minded. CSM would be better of you this time around, |

This has been a difficult few days and Alex did not make this decision lightly. The next CSM has a lot of work ahead of it now. Mittens has helped shape the CSM into it's current form and I've no doubt he will help where he can as he always has. I am glad that he has taken this step so that we can all move forward to doing what the community elected us to do. Seleene's Sandbox - My Blog, where I say stuff. Follow Seleene on Twitter |

Look everyone, the NDA breaking hypocrite had a ready-made response. You are such a gigantic joke that I am laughing hysterically at your feeble efforts to get what you want.
Even if he did resign, do you think it would elevate you? Did you think you of all the CSM people would get more power or influence? You are the disgrace. In fact, you should step down and just face it that you're barely worthy to sit in The Mittani's shadow. Need I remind you that of all the people slinging immaturity accusations around you should probably hold your tongue:

Keep saying that there was NDA breach when devs said clearly there never was. I will continue enjoying your impotent rage as I sit on CSM6, 7 and 8. Toodles. Mittani will be out in 24 hours, bet?

A new hat: Mittani the altruist.
While the CSM did not ask for this action, I do respect and support it. From my perspective, which us not infallible but quite keen, Alex was the most successful CSM chair in that he helped usher in a new era of the CSM where the rigid bureaucratic processes were thrown aside to streamline the process and allow all voices to be equally as significant. A solid change that has borne fruit in what has been an incredibly effective CSM term. As a member of CSM 6, I have nothing but good things to say about how useful and effective Mittani was. I have no doubts that Alex will continue to work hard as a CSM 7 member and I look forward to working with him in the coming year. ~ |

Name: Joseph W Morris EVE character: Darius III Corporation: Interstellar eXodus(IE-EX) Alliance: BricK sQuAD.(BR1CK) Useful links: Campaign webpage, Campaign thread
Joseph is a notorious forum troll who ran for CSM last year. Despite his campaign's being a two-line blog post and a forum thread featuring a video of animal abuse, Joseph secured enough votes to narrowly claim an alternate seat in CSM 6. This year he's back in the running with another two-line campaign blog post and a less offensive campaign thread.
In his previous term, Joseph was suspected of leaking confidential information to his corpmate riverini, who then published it on EVE News 24. This time around, he's been implicated in a scam promising players PLEX in exchange for their votes. |

Hopefully the chair is filled by someone a little more competent and worry's more about the game in a whole as opposed to how their going to stop the inevitable loss of their region.

Joseph is a notorious forum troll who ran for CSM last year. Despite his campaign's being a two-line blog post and a forum thread featuring a video of animal abuse, Joseph secured enough votes to narrowly claim an alternate seat in CSM 6. This year he's back in the running with another two-line campaign blog post and a less offensive campaign thread.
In his previous term, Joseph was suspected of leaking confidential information to his corpmate riverini, who then published it on EVE News 24. This time around, he's been implicated in a scam promising players PLEX in exchange for their votes. My my.
And here I thought EN24 was the internet newsite equivalent of a ~elite pvp~ ~hono-u-rable~ spaceship alliance. Take all the tech Build all the titans Drop all the POSes

What's really funny is since hte CSM (sans DArius, but who cares about Darius) don't really agree with Mittani refusing the chair, welp, he's still effectively the chair. It's all about respect, you see.
And hey, you know the really cute thing? The chair is a completely arbitrary, powerless position. I wouldn't be surprised if they just didn't HAVE a chair this time. |

I have no hate but they stand behind their buddy not behind the community. It's just a simple equation. They are there to do their business and don't give a **** about player base. So obvious Ray Charls could see it.
I'm pretty sure that you aren't the player base. They represent players from all walks of eve. From Nullsec players, to high sec miners. Of course, not all are going to be happy with the people chosen, but that can never happen. |

While i cant speak for NC. i cant lie that the showing of your super capital force outside of both prime times was a great visual experience. Would love to see these kind of cajones shown during our prime time, would indeed fit for a great fight. Perhaps after the April patch we can drop the 40 titans on 1k maelstroms again and show you that all the whining and complaining of titan tracking you had given was for nothing as they will still hurt the same.

For clarification, the two distinctly separate parts of this post:
Part A - In which The Mittani references the real reason he's stepping down, namely him getting drunk and urging thousands of people on live feed to find and encourage someone to commit suicide.
The Mittani wrote:Though I have received many letters of support (my inbox is full of these, and for them I thank you) and the major bloggers have called for me to remain on as Chair, there are still some who doubt the sincerity of my apology to the player concerned, who - unlike those attempting to make hay from my mistake - is the person that matters here. I said that I would resign; to demonstrate the sincerity of my words and my apology, I will do just that.
,,,and Part B - In which he fabricates a brand new reason to step down, as if he was going to decline the chairmanship all along. No mention of the real reason from here down. Except the part where he implies that he was "just mak[ing] a ***** joke" at Fanfest, right at the end. Of course that's what all bullies say.
Quote:With the increasingly high profile of the CSM in the wake of the Incarna Emergency Summit and the amazing turnout we had for the CSM7 elections, I have come to the conclusion that my two roles in EVE - that of the Chairman of the CSM as Alexander Gianturco, and the leader of Goonswarm as "The Mittani" are increasingly incompatible. It is, fundamentally, a problem of hats. As the leader of Goonswarm I must be willing to make ruthless decisions and take actions that many players find objectionable - griefing, ganking, scamming, 'dishonorable' fleet tactics, espionage, metagaming, blowing up everyone who tries to mine Gallente Ice, sponsoring Hulkageddon, et cetera - whatever it takes to defend my people in this, the most exceedingly hostile galaxy to grace the internet. As Darius JOHNSON, the previous Goonswarm leader once said, "[Goonswarm] is not here to destroy /the/ game, but /your/ game. Yet as Chairman of the CSM and Alexander Gianturco, I need to put a good face on CCP's experimental player democracy and keep my nose clean. Inevitably, these two roles conflict with one another; when Goonswarm does what it does in EVE, this reflects on the CSM as a whole, purely due to my position as both Chairman and alliance leader. If I abandon the brutalist tactics of an alliance leader in hopes of keeping the CSM's image pristine, I hamstring my people ingame and do a disservice to the line members who rely on me. In addition, the enemies of Goonswarm assault the CSM and CCP itself unfairly due to the in-game actions of our alliance. After the successful restructuring of CCP, I am convinced that most of the hard work of the CSM is already done - CCP is now focusing on spaceships instead of avatars, and the success of CSM6 has led to a solid and competent crop of player representatives in CSM7 with a much greater turnout, demonstrating ever-more faith and trust from the playerbase in the concept of the CSM. This changes things for the CSM, as well as the Chairman title During Goonswarm's highly successful Gallente Ice Interdiction there were calls for my resignation as Chairman; those calls increased when Goonswarm began to use false supercap sales as a method of closing the gap between us and our in-game enemies' supercap fleets. We are now planning an attempt to destroy Jita itself. All of these actions are entirely legitimate within the brutal world of EVE, yet, in the coming months, if I continue to hold the title of Chairman, CCP will be enduring one PR nightmare after another as Goonswarm's in-game actions unfairly reflect back upon the CSM as a whole through the Chairman title. It is increasingly important that the Chair be a GÇÿgood citizenGÇÖ in the game itself - and I cannot be a good citizen and simultaneously lead my alliance of magnificent bastards. With CSM7's term beginning on April 4th, I now exercise my right as the winner of the election with 10,058 votes to decline the office of Chairman. It will then be up to CSM7 as a group to decide how to proceed regarding the Chair. As a member of the CSM without a title, what I do as the leader of Goonswarm will no longer unfairly reflect on the CSM as a whole - leaving me and my people free to do as we please without needing to consider corporate, political, or media ramifications every time we make a **** joke, offend someone, or sell a supercap made of vapor.

Darius III wrote:This is a cynical half hearted gesture that rings very hollow. You have brought disgrace on the CSM, CCP and the Eve community in general. While I suppose it is "better than nothing" it does not undo the damage you have caused us all. Stepping down entirely is the only way to remove the stain of your poor judgement.
I ask you to look beyond your power mad aspirations and do the right thing for us all: Step down from the CSM so that we can begin the healing process and get some closure. Mainstream gaming media will adore you for it and the players will rejoice. Merely abdicating the Chair is a token gesture that will be viewed with cynicism not from just your detractors, but by everyone who is familiar with who your really are. I am outraged that you think this does anything to address the severity of what you have done to us all.
Instead of this token gesture, if in fact this what you think will atone for what you have done-do something meaningful and quit the the Council completely so that the CSM may once again enjoy the respect of the player base. I urge you to take into account the bigger picture and for once-do the right thing. Your full resignation is the one and only this that will set this right.
Soon in this thread you will see many goonies posting like mad, suggesting there was an NDA breach in CSM6, which of course CCP denied, dont let them turn this into something about ME this is about how Mittani's apology was not sincere, about how he cares nothing for the overall health of Eve, and just shows how empty his apology is.
In B4 1,000 goon alts post support and make laughable accusations about something NDA something that was shown to be untrue and denied by Dev post.
PS This is but a minor defeat for Mittani, but the goonies are going to howl all night. Like music to my ears.
I like to judge a man by his actions. Let's take a look at Mittani.
He's popular and famous (infamous) and has worked hard to make the CSM carry more weight than it used to. The CSM's that he has been on have lead to positive progress for the game.
He made a public statement that was very much out of line and then apologized for it publicly and privately. After that, despite getting a >50% mandate in a jungle primary decided to step down as the chair in order to help the CSM and CCP save face. Weighing his actions not his words, we can deduce that he made a mistake and has made amends.
Now, let's take a look at Darius III.
Elected to CSM6, leaked material protected by NDA to a news source run by someone of questionable mental condition. Implemented a spam campaign in game to garner votes, also implicated in a pay for vote scandal. Annihilated in the next election, failed to retain spot. Now sits on forums with pre-written statements to antagonize his political opponents.
If we judge by actions you're basically a complete failure in more or less every sense of life that can be reflected in this video game. What have you done besides make bad posts and be a bitter forum troll? What will you do now that your free ride is over?

~deal with it~ While the goonswarm forum spamming is pretty atrocious (but not unexpected), the members of the CSM really should have a united front on the issue. Get together, come to a mutually agreeable resolution / statement, and stick to it. Other CSM members expressed displeasure with Mittani's situation with far more class than this.
Otherwise you just end up looking like bickering brats. If you don't put this issue behind you then you, and the CSM as a whole, will be far less effective.
At least you said what you wanted, you own it, and you're not sorry about it. That's more respectable than using weasel words to back out and shift blame. CCP Sreegs is my favorite developer. |

Soon in this thread you will see many goonies posting like mad, suggesting there was an NDA breach in CSM6, which of course CCP denied, dont let them turn this into something about ME this is about how Mittani's apology was not sincere, about how he cares nothing for the overall health of Eve, and just shows how empty his apology is.
In B4 1,000 goon alts post support and make laughable accusations about something NDA something that was shown to be untrue and denied by Dev post.
PS This is but a minor defeat for Mittani, but the goonies are going to howl all night. Like music to my ears.
Just stop posting you moron. Take your 1200 votes and cry to mommy ffs. THE MITTANI IS THE SPACE KING |

Princess Bride wrote:For clarification, the two distinctly separate parts of this post: Part A - In which The Mittani references the real reason he's stepping down, namely him getting drunk and urging thousands of people on live feed to find and encourage someone to commit suicide. The Mittani wrote:Though I have received many letters of support (my inbox is full of these, and for them I thank you) and the major bloggers have called for me to remain on as Chair, there are still some who doubt the sincerity of my apology to the player concerned, who - unlike those attempting to make hay from my mistake - is the person that matters here. I said that I would resign; to demonstrate the sincerity of my words and my apology, I will do just that. ,,,and Part B - In which he fabricates a brand new reason to step down, as if he was going to decline the chairmanship all along. No mention of the real reason from here down. Except the part where he implies that he was "just mak[ing] a ***** joke" at Fanfest, right at the end. Of course that's what all bullies say. Quote:With the increasingly high profile of the CSM in the wake of the Incarna Emergency Summit and the amazing turnout we had for the CSM7 elections, I have come to the conclusion that my two roles in EVE - that of the Chairman of the CSM as Alexander Gianturco, and the leader of Goonswarm as "The Mittani" are increasingly incompatible. It is, fundamentally, a problem of hats. As the leader of Goonswarm I must be willing to make ruthless decisions and take actions that many players find objectionable - griefing, ganking, scamming, 'dishonorable' fleet tactics, espionage, metagaming, blowing up everyone who tries to mine Gallente Ice, sponsoring Hulkageddon, et cetera - whatever it takes to defend my people in this, the most exceedingly hostile galaxy to grace the internet. As Darius JOHNSON, the previous Goonswarm leader once said, "[Goonswarm] is not here to destroy /the/ game, but /your/ game. Yet as Chairman of the CSM and Alexander Gianturco, I need to put a good face on CCP's experimental player democracy and keep my nose clean. Inevitably, these two roles conflict with one another; when Goonswarm does what it does in EVE, this reflects on the CSM as a whole, purely due to my position as both Chairman and alliance leader. If I abandon the brutalist tactics of an alliance leader in hopes of keeping the CSM's image pristine, I hamstring my people ingame and do a disservice to the line members who rely on me. In addition, the enemies of Goonswarm assault the CSM and CCP itself unfairly due to the in-game actions of our alliance. After the successful restructuring of CCP, I am convinced that most of the hard work of the CSM is already done - CCP is now focusing on spaceships instead of avatars, and the success of CSM6 has led to a solid and competent crop of player representatives in CSM7 with a much greater turnout, demonstrating ever-more faith and trust from the playerbase in the concept of the CSM. This changes things for the CSM, as well as the Chairman title During Goonswarm's highly successful Gallente Ice Interdiction there were calls for my resignation as Chairman; those calls increased when Goonswarm began to use false supercap sales as a method of closing the gap between us and our in-game enemies' supercap fleets. We are now planning an attempt to destroy Jita itself. All of these actions are entirely legitimate within the brutal world of EVE, yet, in the coming months, if I continue to hold the title of Chairman, CCP will be enduring one PR nightmare after another as Goonswarm's in-game actions unfairly reflect back upon the CSM as a whole through the Chairman title. It is increasingly important that the Chair be a GÇÿgood citizenGÇÖ in the game itself - and I cannot be a good citizen and simultaneously lead my alliance of magnificent bastards. With CSM7's term beginning on April 4th, I now exercise my right as the winner of the election with 10,058 votes to decline the office of Chairman. It will then be up to CSM7 as a group to decide how to proceed regarding the Chair. As a member of the CSM without a title, what I do as the leader of Goonswarm will no longer unfairly reflect on the CSM as a whole - leaving me and my people free to do as we please without needing to consider corporate, political, or media ramifications every time we make a **** joke, offend someone, or sell a supercap made of vapor.

Well, it's more than I expected.
The logic behind this concerns me a bit thought. It seems to come across like this:
- My actions are often inappropriate.
- Inappropriate actions by a CSM Chairperson are a bad thing.
- Therefore, I will step down as Chairman.
As opposed to:
- My actions are often inappropriate.
- Inappropriate actions by a CSM Chairperson are a bad thing.
- Therefore, I will stop acting inappropriately.
Reminds me of an old Jerry Seinfeld stand-up bit about helmets. Humankind was engaging in activities that were breaking their skulls open, and rather than stop doing those skull-breaking activities people invented the helmet instead.
Either way, it doesn't seem like this is really going to change anything. The pro-Mittani side will always be zealously supporting his position, and the anti-Mittani side will still be calling for his head. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out.
Personally, I'll be staying the hell away from Jita. |

She tried to scramble backwards, but Darius hopped on her legs with a powerful force. Nida could hear the snapping and popping as her lower appendages became useless. As Darius' pants lowered, a single tear streamed down Nida's face. |

Well, I would point out that the Goonswarm Infrastructure is by far the most impressive in all of EVE, possibly the most impressive of all MMORPG player ran organizations (ALL HAIL SOLO DRAKBAN), but I feel you may be attempting to suggest that he won 10,000 votes by merely having all of goonswarm, well, swarm the voting process. Which is not true -- he won more votes than all of Goonswarm combined, and our vote was split between a few candidates. By goonswarm you mean the CFC, just incase idiots start pointing out the test candidates weren't goonwaffe ones. No, I'm not talking about the voting atm. Just about the number of GOONs posting here and at any other "about Mittani" thread ;).
If your information network is as good as you say I bet one GOON saw this post (or Mittani informed his co-leader who informed their members) and BAM ... forum start to colaps ;).
for the votes: 6000 member chars goons xxxx blues + well known name (while most other CSM names are "unknown") -> people vote for "known" average acc peer player ~2,75 (belive this was the number from CCP)

Resigning the chair of the CSM is not a decision for you to make Mittens. The position was given to you by all those people who voted for you. The only way this would be acceptable is if there is another election and you lose.
Which I believe will not happen. Regardless of what that **** eating vulture D3 thinks you still have the support of the majority. |

I am highly disappointed. If there was any type of person I would want in charge of the CSM, it would be an unmitigated *******, and I say that with a sincere measure of respect. I don't much care for goons or their philosophy in general, but when it comes to the CSM I think its safe to say that someone like Mittani would have no trouble speaking his mind, which is precisely what the CSM is there for.
There is no faster way to undermine the vote in my eyes than to immediately run the landslide winner out on a rail for something he said while not representing CCP or the CSM. I only hope that future CSM members and chairs do not take this as a lesson in politics, because the last thing the CSM needs is politicians. "SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE." |

Yes, because every single member char is on a seperate account and we don't have accounts with 2 or even 3 characters to be market alts, PI alts etc,

I said that I would resign; to demonstrate the sincerity of my words and my apology, I will do just that. With the increasingly high profile of the CSM in the wake of the Incarna Emergency Summit and the amazing turnout we had for the CSM7 elections, I have come to the conclusion that my two roles in EVE - that of the Chairman of the CSM as Alexander Gianturco, and the leader of Goonswarm as "The Mittani" are increasingly incompatible. It is, fundamentally, a problem of hats. As the leader of Goonswarm I must be willing to make ruthless decisions and take actions that many players find objectionable - griefing, ganking, scamming, 'dishonorable' fleet tactics, espionage, metagaming, blowing up everyone who tries to mine Gallente Ice, sponsoring Hulkageddon, et cetera - whatever it takes to defend my people in this, the most exceedingly hostile galaxy to grace the internet.

This changes things for the CSM, as well as the Chairman title During Goonswarm's highly successful Gallente Ice Interdiction there were calls for my resignation as Chairman; those calls increased when Goonswarm began to use false supercap sales as a method of closing the gap between us and our in-game enemies' supercap fleets. We are now planning an attempt to destroy Jita itself. All of these actions are entirely legitimate within the brutal world of EVE, yet, in the coming months, if I continue to hold the title of Chairman, CCP will be enduring one PR nightmare after another as Goonswarm's in-game actions unfairly reflect back upon the CSM as a whole through the Chairman title. It is increasingly important that the Chair be a GÇÿgood citizenGÇÖ in the game itself - and I cannot be a good citizen and simultaneously lead my alliance of magnificent bastards. With CSM7's term beginning on April 4th, I now exercise my right as the winner of the election with 10,058 votes to decline the office of Chairman. It will then be up to CSM7 as a group to decide how to proceed regarding the Chair. As a member of the CSM without a title, what I do as the leader of Goonswarm will no longer unfairly reflect on the CSM as a whole - leaving me and my people free to do as we please without needing to consider corporate, political, or media ramifications every time we make a **** joke, offend someone, or sell a supercap made of vapor.

While I suppose it is "better than nothing" it does not undo the damage you have caused us all. Stepping down entirely is the only way to remove the stain of your poor judgement.
I ask you to look beyond your power mad aspirations and do the right thing for us all: Step down from the CSM so that we can begin the healing process and get some closure. Mainstream gaming media will adore you for it and the players will rejoice. Merely abdicating the Chair is a token gesture that will be viewed with cynicism not from just your detractors, but by everyone who is familiar with who your really are. I am outraged that you think this does anything to address the severity of what you have done to us all.
Instead of this token gesture, if in fact this what you think will atone for what you have done-do something meaningful and quit the the Council completely so that the CSM may once again enjoy the respect of the player base. I urge you to take into account the bigger picture and for once-do the right thing. Your full resignation is the one and only this that will set this right.
Soon in this thread you will see many goonies posting like mad, suggesting there was an NDA breach in CSM6, which of course CCP denied, dont let them turn this into something about ME this is about how Mittani's apology was not sincere, about how he cares nothing for the overall health of Eve, and just shows how empty his apology is.
In B4 1,000 goon alts post support and make laughable accusations about something NDA something that was shown to be untrue and denied by Dev post.
PS This is but a minor defeat for Mittani, but the goonies are going to howl all night. Like music to my ears.

So Alex/Mittens,
Am I correct in deciphering that you feel that your actions where unworthy of Chair of the CSM, but perfectly fine for a member of the CSM? Am I reading that right?
Just trying to follow your logic.

I think the NDA thing pales in comparison to him using a sick person to further his own personal vendetta against The Mittani. Leaking some information about a video game is pretty tame compared to actually using another person's pain to get yourself ahead in said video game. |

I ask you to look beyond your power mad aspirations and do the right thing for us all: Step down from the CSM so that we can begin the healing process and get some closure.

Merely abdicating the Chair is a token gesture that will be viewed with cynicism not from just your detractors, but by everyone who is familiar with who your really are. I am outraged that you think this does anything to address the severity of what you have done to us all.
Instead of this token gesture, if in fact this what you think will atone for what you have done-do something meaningful and quit the the Council completely so that the CSM may once again enjoy the respect of the player base. I urge you to take into account the bigger picture and for once-do the right thing. Your full resignation is the one and only this that will set this right.
Soon in this thread you will see many goonies posting like mad, suggesting there was an NDA breach in CSM6, which of course CCP denied, dont let them turn this into something about ME this is about how Mittani's apology was not sincere, about how he cares nothing for the overall health of Eve, and just shows how empty his apology is.
Jita will now suffer from your insolence and political greed. The blood of freighters and capsules will be upon your hands. I hope you can live with yourself Darius, this is all your doing. |

If you, sorry, "Joey Vegas" didn't start this shitstorm in the first place CCP, CSM and EVE would never have gotten any of the bad press in the first place.
I think putting yourself before the community was disgraceful and you should resign as a CSM alternative and just go back to being a full-time bad poster.

Fine then it is time to disband the CSM. Fully, completely and now.
Because if CSM members have to stop their in game actions and act like real life politicians in order to get a word with CCP on the issues then SCREW IT.
Darius III in my opinion will be an extremely poor CSM member. Yet it should be up to us the voters the decide if his attacking of the incursion community and similar disregard for grouping without the BS of nullsec politics NOT political bullcrap. The idea that even he has to "Not attack incursions" to prevent CSM controversy is sickening and goes against the spirit of EVE Online.
You got over 10K votes because the voters like you. You put in your time and talked to the voters while some of the other candidates scammed players in Jita for votes instead.
Now the CSM will be gutted by politics. It is USELESS now. |

Am I correct in deciphering that you feel that your actions where unworthy of Chair of the CSM, but perfectly fine for a member of the CSM? Am I reading that right?
Just trying to follow your logic.
Are CSM members not meant to play the game, and best represent the people who elected them? Are CSM chairmans not meant to play the game, and best represent the people who elected them?
Not being able to play the game would deprive the CSM chair/candidate of the experience of current game mechanics that would help him empathise with his constituents. How can a member of the CSM best represent his constituents if he doesn't even play and keep himself up-to-date? However, it's difficult to determine how a CSM best represents his constituents, since in many cases the elected representative would be simply elected based on the fact that he is of the same "tribe" as them, without considering any policy decisions that the candidate would champion. For lack of a better analogy, there is no a "left/right" spectrum in the CSM elections. There isn't even a "Pubbie/~Elite Pvp~" spectrum. In fact the majority of voters are single-issue voters with only one thing on their minds, be it reversing titan nerfs or being literally invulnerable in high-sec.
Since our Dear Leader is not resigning, it's disappointing that I can't propose that all our votes be returned so intelligent voters can vote again, by way of the Single Transferable Vote as a means of mixing it up. STV however has disadvantages when used electronically however (recounts are a mess) . |

I got into EVE because of the stories I heard, the scams and the ruthlessness of the player base. Goonswarm had a lot to do with those stories and I'm sure many people followed them straight into EVE and are still here today playing this great game.
It's sad to see that you have had to resign from a position you were entitled to. No one is perfect and anyone without an agenda could see that you were sincere in your apologies. I hope you resigning ends this matter. It's not fair but I hope people realise just how much a role you played in helping EVE become what it is and what it will be in 2012. |

Why is everyone not goon so buttthurt about all this? Sure he acted like a total douche and I really don't agree with what he did but this kind of stuff is what makes Eve so great, drama that echoes throughout the whole game.
What brought me to this game was when I read about the bankscam that happened back in '06. With that said stop being so butthurt and see this for what it is. A drunk guy who didn't think before he acted.

A lot of those outraged are either too young to get drunk off their ass and don't know anything about being drunk, or have been denied their 3rd liver transplant, (the hospital outright told them to kill themselves and stop asting them money) in which case they're just jealous that Mittani is a lightweight.

I am amazed by the amount of people that think attacking somebody who is somewhat mentally unstable and then encouraging the community to bully him into actually killing himself is acceptable and that a simple my bad is an ok resolution.
This behaviour is not acceptable in any medium.
He did not just shout out in local you suck go kill your self.
He knew the guy was suicidal and then tried to encourage it. This was also pre meditated he came to the speech prepared for this. Drunk had nothing to do with this.
Stepping down from this position is the least of his punishments, if CCP does not ban the account there practicably saying we don't care try to get people to kill themselves.
Mit has not even on any level apologized for this he is just trying to mitigate any damage CCP might do to him by saying look I apologized I have him a days worth of goon rent.
Non of this excuses his premeditated behaviour and he needs to accept any consequences that befall him and no one should be defending his heinous actions.
How CCP will let this go un-punished is beyond me, stepping down from the counsel is not a punishment. |

Disregarding the votes would mean not having Mittani on the CSM at all.
He was elected, then stepped down from that position. Nothing was disregarded. It's much like how the Presidential impeachment process works. If a President is removed form office, it doesn't suddenly mean that he was never elected to it in the first place.
Also, from what I understand CCP didn't do anything. Mittani did.

Well done NPC alts,
You just cleared Mittens of any sense of pandering to any role he needs to play and he is now free to leverage the full arsenal of goonswarm against you in any manner the TOS allows.
Yes, this means completely destroying Jita.

I always wondered how the combination of chairman and being leader of Goonswarm would co-exist.
Stepping down from chair but remaining in the CSM would have been a better thing.
Besides The Mittani who would be left to hate? The rest just tries too hard and fails too much.
Regardless how I look upon The Mittani I am glad Alexander chose the smarter path. An EVE without the ultimate bad guy is like Hello no Kitty.
As for Darius.

This is pretty sound reasoning and if it is genuinely your decision rather than bending to pressure, then godspeed and good luck. You may have lost respect in some players' eyes, but gained it from others. I know that I'm inconsequential as is anything I say, but--yes, much respect from me. You're good at playing a giant space douchenozzle, leader of douchebags, a fine job indeed since you don't appear to be like that when speaking as a member of this so-called "real life" world.

Quote:As some of you might have heard, one of the Alliance leaders speaking at the Alliance Panel during EVE Fanfest 2012 breached our EULA/TOS with some ill-advised remarks about a fellow EVE player. It goes without saying that CCP deeply regrets this incident and will work towards reducing any possibility of this happening again in the future.
CCP requested that all panel PowerPoint presentations and discussion topics be handed in beforehand for approval. Regrettably, the offending comments were made during an unscripted Q&A session after the main presentations.
Following a thorough internal review CCP has decided to respond to this clear violation of our Terms of Service and wholly inappropriate use of the Alliance Panel. According to our existing policies, we have issued a 30 day ban from EVE Online to the panel speaker.
The policy of CCP is not to publicly discuss warnings and bans on an individual basis. This situation is entirely unique because the panel was displayed via CCPGÇÖs Fanfest video stream component, a platform analogous to our forums. As a result we have published this statement due to the special circumstances involved. However, our policy remains that we will not publicly discuss warnings and bans.
The panelist has subsequently posted a public apology as well as a private apology to the victim of his attack. He has also resigned from his position as Chairman of CSM 6 and has forfeited his right to serve on CSM 7. As per our policies, this candidate may be eligible to run at a later date subject to candidacy review.
The Council of Stellar Management is a democratically elected council that represents the players of EVE Online. Although council members may represent the players in any manner they choose, being a council member does not permit actions or playstyles that violate our policies.

Good on you for admitting that you ****** up and realizing that being the leader of the Swarm conflicts with being CSM Chairman. I'm no goon, but this is definitely something I can respect as a WH dweller.
No matter what others (like Darius III) say, don't step down from the CSM. EVE needs you and the nullsec nutcases who voted for you deserve to have the representative they want, and not the representative that carebears think the nullsec bloc should have.
Again, man, I commend you for giving up the power you had as Chairman so you can represent your people and play the game the way your need to, without your actions ingame reflecting poorly upon the CSM, CCP, and the EVE community. |

I am not "happy" that any part of of this mess occured. I wish Mittens had not have made such a fool of himself. However, a 30 day ban from EVE Online and complete removal from CSM 7 seems like a fitting punishment in view of the violation. I am satisfied and can't accuse CCP of favortism or corruption in the matter if it holds true. It was a punishment they issued in light of their own rules. I figure select members of the CSM are reeling just a little bit. If nothing else, I can say I am glad some of this can be put to rest.
Sure, I can't ever fly near goon space with this character. lol... But in spite of any harsh seeming words it wasn't ever that kind of personal. Unless you've ever been targeted by that type of attack in real life I doubt you could ever get it. Stuff like that has no place in gaming. Hoepfully, it'll straighten him up and remind him of why it's a game and should stay that way rather than bleeding into real life so much.
Good luck with the next election Mittens. And that's not stated mockingly. |

While I suppose it is "better than nothing" it does not undo the damage you have caused us all. Stepping down entirely is the only way to remove the stain of your poor judgement.
I ask you to look beyond your power mad aspirations and do the right thing for us all: Step down from the CSM so that we can begin the healing process and get some closure. Mainstream gaming media will adore you for it and the players will rejoice. Merely abdicating the Chair is a token gesture that will be viewed with cynicism not from just your detractors, but by everyone who is familiar with who your really are. I am outraged that you think this does anything to address the severity of what you have done to us all.
Instead of this token gesture, if in fact this what you think will atone for what you have done-do something meaningful and quit the the Council completely so that the CSM may once again enjoy the respect of the player base. I urge you to take into account the bigger picture and for once-do the right thing. Your full resignation is the one and only this that will set this right.
Soon in this thread you will see many goonies posting like mad, suggesting there was an NDA breach in CSM6, which of course CCP denied, dont let them turn this into something about ME this is about how Mittani's apology was not sincere, about how he cares nothing for the overall health of Eve, and just shows how empty his apology is.
In B4 1,000 goon alts post support and make laughable accusations about something NDA something that was shown to be untrue and denied by Dev post.
PS This is but a minor defeat for Mittani, but the goonies are going to howl all night. Like music to my ears.
Most immature comment Ive ever seen anywhere on these forums. Nice job taking fullest advantage of another person's political mistake like the leech you seem to be.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkNM8uDapgU
So what am I not supposed to have an opinion Should I keep quiet just because I'm the Mittani Call me a ***** cuz I speak what's on my mind Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled
When the Mittani fires back Suddenly big talker don't know how to act So he does what any little Darius will do Making up a few false rumors or two
That for sure is not a man to me Slanderin' names for popularity It's sad you only get your fame through controversy But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say
This is for my goons all around the world Who've come across a man that don't respect your worth Thinking all gooners should be seen, not heard So what do we do goons? Shout out loud! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground So lift your hands high and wave them proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down
Nobody can hold us down Nobody can hold us down Nobody can hold us down Never can, never will
So what am I not supposed to say what I'm saying Are you offended with the message I'm bringing Call me whatever cuz your words don't mean a thing Guess you ain't a bit of man enough to handle what I sing
If you look back in history It's a common double standard of society The guy gets all the glory the more he can score While the goon can do the same and yet you call him a griefer
I don't understand why it's okay The guy can get away with it & the goonl gets named All my goonies come together and make a change Start a new beginning for us everybody sing
This is for my goons all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth Thinking all gooners should be seen, not heard What do we do goons? Shout out loud!
Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down
Vile Rat: Here's something I just can't understand If the guy can break NDA then he's the man He can either give us some grief, **** us off If a goon does the same, then he's a griefer But the table's about to turn I'll bet my fame on it Cats take my ideas and put their name on it It's aiight though, you can't hold me down I got to keep on movin' To all my goons with a pubbie who be giving us flak Do it right back to him and let that be that You need to let him know that his game is whack And Vile Rat and The Mittani got your back
But you're just a little boy Think you're so cute, so coy You must talk so big To make up for smaller things So you're just a little boy All you'll do is annoy You must talk so big To make up for smaller things
This is for my goons... This is for my goons all around the world Who've come across a pubbie who don't respect your worth Thinking The Mittani should be seen, not heard So what do we do goons? Shout out loud! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down

As someone Who openly felt that alex's behaviour was highly out of order, and also feel that although his stepping down is actually unneeded and should never have been pushed this far, it should certainly help. I'm not a religeous man however i believe theres a quote in the bible which fits here nicely "let he that is without sin cast the first stone". You're all condeming "The Mittani" for an action that "alex" (i'm not going to try spell your second name, appologies) Did at fanfest while drunk, and while surounded by friends and in a situation where everyone was happy, and giddy. I'm not saying this makes it right, but it certainly help's explain. you've all did stupid ****, anyone who says they havent did something they highly regret whilst drunk is a liar, he's openly admitted what he's done was wrong and is taking steps on his own to try fix the situation. i don't feel a ingame ban is fair for an action that was done out of game while at fanfest, it's like jailing someone in real life for a crime in eve. i honestly done think it matters anyway, the ceo of goonswarm is unlikely to have only one account, and all this is only really going to appease to the masses of idiots that have been annoyed by the mittani in the past.
In any case, i look forward to an unshackled goonswarm. Cant wait to see how the carebears and idiots pay for this. Good luck in future Alex and as a player and a person, i hope this doesn't affect you too much, if anything truely can peirce that heart of coal of yours. |

Mittani ****** up, that much is clear, and considering the amount of media coverage about it, he has handled it professionally and courteously, unlike you, who seem to think that you should be loved for trying to spearhead a crucifixion of one of the best voices we have had for the playerbase as a whole.
i would not trust you with one vote, let alone the voice of Eve players.
and you may be thinking oh yeah, just another flamepost from some CFC guy but i can assure you, this comes not from anyone in a corp or alliance, not from anyone who is biased towards anybody, but from myself, an Eve player who has paid open minded attention to the workings of eve politics and noticed you for the cancer that you are.

Mittani has posted that he hands the CSM chair to another person cause he fears that the planned actions of griefing and harrasment by goonswarm would be negativ publicity for CCP and that he is better at planing on how to destroy Jita entirely than leading the CSM. Still keeping the seat in the CSM of course.
Only 2 hours later CCP bans him for 30 Days and thus kicks him out of CSM while still allows him to candidate for the next CSM , of course only if the candidature is reviewed positively. *hint*hint*

You know as well as anyone else that what matters when it comes to public statements inciting harassment against another, is that you made the public statement inciting harassment. The actual mental state of the target doesn't matter, just as in a defamation case it doesn't matter if what you utter are factual statements, it only matters that there is an impact in the perception of the target by the population you spoke to.

It is, fundamentally, a problem of hats.
I disagree: the problem was more with you running your mouth off without considering what you were saying, especially given that there were cameras in the room broadcasting your words live to the thousands of people who weren't in the room with you, whose appreciation for your humour could not be gauged.
There is absolutely no incompatibility between being The Mittani and being CSM Chairman. I found the calls for your resignation during the Ice Interdiction to be laughable. You could, of course, stand for CSM Chairman with a sock puppet alt. This should help distance The Mittani from CSM Chairman even though both roles are played by the same human.

While I suppose it is "better than nothing" it does not undo the damage you have caused us all. Stepping down entirely is the only way to remove the stain of your poor judgement.
I ask you to look beyond your power mad aspirations and do the right thing for us all: Step down from the CSM so that we can begin the healing process and get some closure. Mainstream gaming media will adore you for it and the players will rejoice. Merely abdicating the Chair is a token gesture that will be viewed with cynicism not from just your detractors, but by everyone who is familiar with who your really are. I am outraged that you think this does anything to address the severity of what you have done to us all.
Instead of this token gesture, if in fact this what you think will atone for what you have done-do something meaningful and quit the the Council completely so that the CSM may once again enjoy the respect of the player base. I urge you to take into account the bigger picture and for once-do the right thing. Your full resignation is the one and only this that will set this right.
Soon in this thread you will see many goonies posting like mad, suggesting there was an NDA breach in CSM6, which of course CCP denied, dont let them turn this into something about ME this is about how Mittani's apology was not sincere, about how he cares nothing for the overall health of Eve, and just shows how empty his apology is.
In B4 1,000 goon alts post support and make laughable accusations about something NDA something that was shown to be untrue and denied by Dev post.
PS This is but a minor defeat for Mittani, but the goonies are going to howl all night. Like music to my ears.
There are times when politicking in EVE reminds me of real world politics. Oftentimes I see this as an interesting and even beneficial thing to a game like this. However, Darius, your post is a sore reminder of the fact that most politics is ends up effectively as a **** size contest. While I support Mitten's decision to step down from his position as chairman, your effort to pull him out of the council entirely is a sadly obvious ploy given your obvious bias from the events of the last year or so. I suggest we leave Mittens where he is.

So, in summary.
Mittens gets up on stage, berates a player and makes fun of his depression, lots of nasty words. Not smart, dude. Some of the mails you posted were generally hilarious. But that one in particular, picking on those particular things, showed an unpleasant side that, as mittens, is almost expected in this game but, as head of the CSM, is not and is not acceptable. I'm disappointed that it happened, but it's a momentary lack of judgement, and I accept the apology that was given publicly and privately.
As much as I dislike mitten's comments, that's nothing to the revulsion that I feel toward those making "political" hay over this issue. The amount of recreational outrage and feigned moral panic from Darius and others is appalling. You're using this scenario to further your own interests, just like mittens used that guy to get a laugh. You don't give a **** about that guy, or the abuse he felt and suffered as a result of the presentation. It's just convenient. You do it to get a rise - you've said as much in this thread while delighting in the "tears" it has produced.
You're pathetic, and deserve as much censure as mittens for your opportunist abuse of this situation.

Thank you Taihbea. Simple and elegantly said. A CSM should put the community and game ahead of their buddies, corporation, alliance of coalition. This is why Politicians in come countries are expected to resign leadership positions that are in conflict with their duties as an elected representative of the people. This is a Democratic ideal but a good one that prevents corruption. |

Nope. Some Spacekiddy went into Real Life and got hurt in the process.
This has nothing to do with hating the goons but with Real Life decsision made by real persons and consequences that companies decided to take as reaction to prevent damage from their assets. Grow Up! |

As a random, awful pubbie who just happened to watch FanFest and follow this whole thing?
I wasn't particularly impressed by The Mittani's presentation. I was somewhat irked by his original statement in the Q&A session. I was satisfied with his apology of both words and actions. I was surprised but understood him choosing to decline the Chair - I didn't vote for him, but I know he did a damn good job with the CSM6. I'd like to see him continue to work with the CSM7 on improving EVE. I'm impressed that The Mittani, in linking it, agreed with what amounted to a very cutting biography of him as a public figure. I greatly disrespect everything Darius III brought to this conversation.

This all seems to have gone ridiculously far. Hearing about what was said early on I thought Mittens had gone too far. Watching the video of it I really didn't have a problem with it.
If he had said it about another csm member or an alliance leader would everyone have made such a big deal? It only seems to be a big deal because a pubbie said he was suicidal on the internet. |

I don't think any "crime" was committed. You should be banned for saying you are going to kill yourself until you bring a doctors note back to the devs saying you are fit for podding and not psychotic. You morons are blaming the wrong guy. There's plenty to be pi55ed at the goons about. I don't think this is one of them.

So does this mean people convicted of manslaughter while DUI shouldn't be held accountable for their actions? It's comparable.

The argument being made is that The Mittani isn't at fault because he was drunk. My argument was that drinking does impair judgement, but you are still accountable for those actions. Sa souvraya niende misain ye. |

If there is anyone who is a disgrace in these matters it is you. You were not party to the incident yet you are drawn to it like a fly to **** to try to promote your own agenda.
Mittens at least realizes the dichotomy of leading an alliance of incredibly amoral people and being Chairman. Meanwhile you are so desperate for votes you were trying to lure them with PLEX, and scamming them to boot. How convenient you don't hold yourself up to that same standard of moral purity you seem so eager to weigh others against.

Um, no, he doesn't realize the dichotomy of leading an alliance of incredibly amoral people and being Chairman. If he did, he would still BE Chairman, and on the CSM, and not banned for 30 days, and not barred from all future CSM elections. http://eveprincessbride.wordpress.com/ |

The healing process? It's a ******* video game, do people in Call of Duty ask for a period of healing when some random person on the Internet yells out obscenities that contain racial slurs or slurs towards ones sexual preference? What he did was clearly in bad taste, I seriously doubt anyone would deny that. That being said at the end of the day eve is not a real world and you are not that connected to it. |

The Mittani wrote:Though I have received many letters of support (my inbox is full of these, and for them I thank you) and the major bloggers have called for me to remain on as Chair, there are still some who doubt the sincerity of my apology to the player concerned, who - unlike those attempting to make hay from my mistake - is the person that matters here. I said that I would resign; to demonstrate the sincerity of my words and my apology, I will do just that. With the increasingly high profile of the CSM in the wake of the Incarna Emergency Summit and the amazing turnout we had for the CSM7 elections, I have come to the conclusion that my two roles in EVE - that of the Chairman of the CSM as Alexander Gianturco, and the leader of Goonswarm as "The Mittani" are increasingly incompatible. It is, fundamentally, a problem of hats. As the leader of Goonswarm I must be willing to make ruthless decisions and take actions that many players find objectionable - griefing, ganking, scamming, 'dishonorable' fleet tactics, espionage, metagaming, blowing up everyone who tries to mine Gallente Ice, sponsoring Hulkageddon, et cetera - whatever it takes to defend my people in this, the most exceedingly hostile galaxy to grace the internet. As Darius JOHNSON, the previous Goonswarm leader once said, "[Goonswarm] is not here to destroy /the/ game, but /your/ game. Yet as Chairman of the CSM and Alexander Gianturco, I need to put a good face on CCP's experimental player democracy and keep my nose clean. Inevitably, these two roles conflict with one another; when Goonswarm does what it does in EVE, this reflects on the CSM as a whole, purely due to my position as both Chairman and alliance leader. If I abandon the brutalist tactics of an alliance leader in hopes of keeping the CSM's image pristine, I hamstring my people ingame and do a disservice to the line members who rely on me. In addition, the enemies of Goonswarm assault the CSM and CCP itself unfairly due to the in-game actions of our alliance. After the successful restructuring of CCP, I am convinced that most of the hard work of the CSM is already done - CCP is now focusing on spaceships instead of avatars, and the success of CSM6 has led to a solid and competent crop of player representatives in CSM7 with a much greater turnout, demonstrating ever-more faith and trust from the playerbase in the concept of the CSM. This changes things for the CSM, as well as the Chairman title During Goonswarm's highly successful Gallente Ice Interdiction there were calls for my resignation as Chairman; those calls increased when Goonswarm began to use false supercap sales as a method of closing the gap between us and our in-game enemies' supercap fleets. We are now planning an attempt to destroy Jita itself. All of these actions are entirely legitimate within the brutal world of EVE, yet, in the coming months, if I continue to hold the title of Chairman, CCP will be enduring one PR nightmare after another as Goonswarm's in-game actions unfairly reflect back upon the CSM as a whole through the Chairman title. It is increasingly important that the Chair be a GÇÿgood citizenGÇÖ in the game itself - and I cannot be a good citizen and simultaneously lead my alliance of magnificent bastards. With CSM7's term beginning on April 4th, I now exercise my right as the winner of the election with 10,058 votes to decline the office of Chairman. It will then be up to CSM7 as a group to decide how to proceed regarding the Chair. As a member of the CSM without a title, what I do as the leader of Goonswarm will no longer unfairly reflect on the CSM as a whole - leaving me and my people free to do as we please without needing to consider corporate, political, or media ramifications every time we make a **** joke, offend someone, or sell a supercap made of vapor.
To be honest, I'm more disgusted at this post than anything Mittens has done. So yeah, Mittens has made a decision not to lead the csm. That was his decision. Not the CSMs, not CCPs, his decision. But another member of the CSM isn't satisfied with it therefore he is going to loudly say so on the forums. The TL;DR of the quoted post is something like, "You've shamed us, shamed yourself and now you should gtfo, live with your face in the dirt and get spat on by the whole community."

nnnnnnnnnNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo is basically my delayed response to this announcement.
Just as the threadnaught was forming, too late, I should have made it a day sooner, but even then it may have been likely futile to what is set in stone by ccp.
On another note, course its the 3ed tier bottom of the barrel candidates who go the mile to still smear mittani. They get everything they want, and then they want more, the dung keeps flying. I do hope they stay low in the polls (maybe fall off) and never get the chair.

Since when did you ever give a **** about the CSM except as a vehicle to get a free trip to Iceland?
You've made no secret of this: you've openly said that anyone who voted for you got scammed, and it's a known fact that you didn't lift a finger to contribute any work at all during the last CSM. Whatever else might be said about Alex, he did put in the work that his constituents trusted him with.
You accomplished nothing except to waste everyone's time.
Your sole goal in this controversy is to get Alex removed from the CSM so that you can get a step closer to once again getting your free ticket for doing nothing. Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.

@ Mittani:
Step down from CSM, not only from chairman but from the hole CSM, as Darius III said correctly u brought shame on the hole EVE community and yes this is "just a game" but i don't wanna play a game, where people think, that there are just social retardet players. Really after this hole thing, how can you think that you can stay in the regular CSM like nothing happend? I mean just look at the impact your words had. Every other person would have stepped down from CSM.

Mittins has done a lot for this game and for CCP to toss him under a bus like that was unclassy they should at least talked to him about it before hand, shown him some respect like he did to them with monoclegate.
are you that stupid? I mean, this was a PR-bomb, every other politican in his position would have declined his position and even though he has done a lot for EVE, does that apologize his behavior? No i don't think so. Every person earns a second chance but not in a position like this. What would you say if Mr.Obama would do that? He is a representive person, he represents the EVE community...

I didn't even show this whole shebang to my out of game nerd friends because its really ******* boring.

What this guy said. ^^ Darius is obviously just throwing fuel on the fire to try and further his own "political" career
there are about a million worse things said in EVE every day probably EVERY minute but no one cares cause it doesn't catch the public eye.
At the end of the day its a GAME!!!!! Mittani is not the CEO of some huge company like Microsoft or IBM ect... his a player of a video game (a very cool video game mind you but none the less a game) The fact that this is getting so blown out of proportion.
Everyone is angry at his actions and behavior...... HOW SHOULD HE BEHAVE? I dont know about you but every board meeting i've been to the CEO was not drinking booze at. You cant have it both ways guys. Don't go YAY FANFEST CCP ARE SO COOL, we are all super smashed having a great time then all of a sudden flip out when someone says something that goes a bit to far. What he said was in poor taste yes but he has apologized for it several times If something like this was said at an after party it would not be given a second though.
All it boils down too is other people wanting to make the most of his misfortune. I don't know The Mittani personally or even in game very well but even though he can be very smug he seems to make for a great leader and to be able to get things done. Im very disappointed he wont be chairman I hope that while not being chairman he is still able to continue making great changes in EVE as a regular member of the CSM. |

This was a "PR Bomb" set up by people with an agenda, sent to an audience with a very well known bias against Mittens. The whole drama was calculated and manufactured to take an event that was totally unheard about until the election results were announced. So, again, any sort of damage done to EVE was part of the "PR Bomb" created by those who considered smearing The Mittani (and Alex himself, going so far as to wish personal ruin on him outside of the game in their rabid hatred of the guy.) There are even those (whose hatred was so great and so great was their fear that the figurehead of all of their rancor might escape the whole false rage fiasco with only minor burns) decided it was worth going to any company even associated with CCP (those associated with the upcoming DUST for example) and throwing the future of the company itself onto the tracks in order to drum up even more outrage over an event that never warranted the attention it got in the first place.
It was/is wholesale artificial witch-hunt and apparently the law is strong in Salem these days. Its a shame that these people so excitedly braying for Mittens's head on a plate considered their own personal hatred over the the future of CCP and the game itself. Shame on all of the band wagoners who helped them to hype up their fiasco. |

Actually I just think he kicked sand in so many peoples faces over the years that when he did something really stupid they made sure it was out there for all to see.
The only one to blame for what happened to Mittens is Mittens. You can say people blew it up and they did but if he had not done it in the first place, he wouldn't have thrown away so many votes and so much work. His actions have disgraced the CCM, CCP and even Goonswarm(as people will be throwing this in their faces for years). He has undone any good work he did do because that is not what will be remembered.
He is to blame for his own actions, no one else. Any Spelling, gramatical and literary errors made by me are included free of charge. |

It would have been the best way forward I guess but you don't make those decisions. You can't expect to pick and choose the consequences of your actions.
In effect you have given CCP no choice in the matter of your removal since you had taken all other steps. This doesn't mean CCP wouldn't have done what it did. But they have to be in control of your punishment, not you, at least in the eyes of the media, players and partners. They are in control after all, especially in the business part of their spaceship business.
The media and attention that you nurtured came back to bite you, that is unfortunate but could have been avoided. Use it as one of the hard lessons of leadership you so often speak of and learn from it and run for CSM8.
But don't go looking in the shadows for others to blame for this, you did this and shaped the course of the debate. Really own your mistake and you'll get the respect that comes with that. - [img]http://go-dl1.eve-files.com/media/corp/janus/ceosig.jpg[/img] [yellow]English only please. Zymurgist[/yellow] |

Of course he is feeling sorry for himself but I dont think its for the reason you are thinking. I think he realises that if his comment was taken seriously and an already potentially unbalanced person did something drastic, he would feel responsible. The Mittani persona prolly wouldn't give a crap about it but Alex the person probably would (who wouldn't feel bad about causing another human being harm even if indirectly).

I see you miss the voice of your mother I see you miss the taste of ice-cream And the sand of the beach between your little toes
Come press your face of sorrow between my ample hills of femininity I soothe you, I hum a nameless tune for you Open your well of desperation and weep Empty your fountain of desperation, let it flow
Open your empty eyes and see your tears run Down my ebony skin All the way down to my thirsty paradise

@The Mittani
Probably the best possible choice.
IMO, the game is better with you as the villain you choose to play, and we need someone on the CSM that has no fear of getting dirty when an ugly job needs to be done.
That said, from the PR side of things, neither Eve, the CSM, nor CCP needs the baggage of having 'public enemy number one' in such a visible position. |

I ask you to look beyond your power mad aspirations and do the right thing for us all: Step down from the CSM so that we can begin the healing process and get some closure. Mainstream gaming media will adore you for it and the players will rejoice. Merely abdicating the Chair is a token gesture that will be viewed with cynicism not from just your detractors, but by everyone who is familiar with who your really are. I am outraged that you think this does anything to address the severity of what you have done to us all.
Instead of this token gesture, if in fact this what you think will atone for what you have done-do something meaningful and quit the the Council completely so that the CSM may once again enjoy the respect of the player base. I urge you to take into account the bigger picture and for once-do the right thing. Your full resignation is the one and only this that will set this right. It would be unfair to 10,058 voters if he didn't represent them.
This is what happens when alcohol is involved and you are so loaded you pick up the asshat by mistake.

Well all I can say to this now is thank you for doing the right thing.
I will confess I did doubt that you would go no further than an apology, which I have said was not enough to satisfy my own concerns. I only see you as Mittani in game where you are a self confessed troll who I do not trust one bit. And then on the Alliance panel where I saw someone I do not respect one bit, either.
So maybe you can see why people do not trust what you say because online you are like the boy who cried wolf too many times. And when that is the only face you show most people then I have no way of trusting you when you say you are not like this in real life, which I know I am sure most people are not anyway. I am hardly a cynic about human nature in general, just individual cases. But 'sure' is not enough when something like this happens and even if I were completely aware of your real character I think the situation itself called for actual consequences. And I do not agree that those should include a life time ban or other extremes called for by the excitable mob.
So, again, thank you for showing me another side of yourself, and for doing the right thing here. |

PS This is but a minor defeat for Mittani, but the goonies are going to howl all night. Like music to my ears.
Doesn't your obsession with themittani bother you? It bothers me, it's kinda romantic, I trust your missus doesn't mind.
And what does your shrink say about the state of your mental impoverishment that leads to your thinking that your only advancement comes through such transparently cheap shots.
Nobody voted for you bro. Now just nip off, pick up some viagra and it will work just like it used to work without needing reference to better ...men?

I am not a member of GS, nor I think I ever be, but Mittens(thou I didn't even vote for you), **** all those who keep throwing **** at you. You did awesome job as chairman and as most know alliance leader.
Everyone have **** ups from time to time, and you just have to "deal with it".
My big pros to you as a man, who could understand what is better for "serious spaceship business" and stepping over your pride.
You prolly wont even find this post but - grief, scam, spy, gank, metagame - keep doing all of the things, because whatever pubbies will say, EVE wont be that sandbox we love it for without Goonswarm.

I said that I would resign; to demonstrate the sincerity of my words and my apology, I will do just that. With the increasingly high profile of the CSM in the wake of the Incarna Emergency Summit and the amazing turnout we had for the CSM7 elections, I have come to the conclusion that my two roles in EVE - that of the Chairman of the CSM as Alexander Gianturco, and the leader of Goonswarm as "The Mittani" are increasingly incompatible. It is, fundamentally, a problem of hats. As the leader of Goonswarm I must be willing to make ruthless decisions and take actions that many players find objectionable - griefing, ganking, scamming, 'dishonorable' fleet tactics, espionage, metagaming, blowing up everyone who tries to mine Gallente Ice, sponsoring Hulkageddon, et cetera - whatever it takes to defend my people in this, the most exceedingly hostile galaxy to grace the internet. As Darius JOHNSON, the previous Goonswarm leader once said, "[Goonswarm] is not here to destroy /the/ game, but /your/ game. Yet as Chairman of the CSM and Alexander Gianturco, I need to put a good face on CCP's experimental player democracy and keep my nose clean. Inevitably, these two roles conflict with one another; when Goonswarm does what it does in EVE, this reflects on the CSM as a whole, purely due to my position as both Chairman and alliance leader. If I abandon the brutalist tactics of an alliance leader in hopes of keeping the CSM's image pristine, I hamstring my people ingame and do a disservice to the line members who rely on me. In addition, the enemies of Goonswarm assault the CSM and CCP itself unfairly due to the in-game actions of our alliance. After the successful restructuring of CCP, I am convinced that most of the hard work of the CSM is already done - CCP is now focusing on spaceships instead of avatars, and the success of CSM6 has led to a solid and competent crop of player representatives in CSM7 with a much greater turnout, demonstrating ever-more faith and trust from the playerbase in the concept of the CSM. This changes things for the CSM, as well as the Chairman title During Goonswarm's highly successful Gallente Ice Interdiction there were calls for my resignation as Chairman; those calls increased when Goonswarm began to use false supercap sales as a method of closing the gap between us and our in-game enemies' supercap fleets. We are now planning an attempt to destroy Jita itself. All of these actions are entirely legitimate within the brutal world of EVE, yet, in the coming months, if I continue to hold the title of Chairman, CCP will be enduring one PR nightmare after another as Goonswarm's in-game actions unfairly reflect back upon the CSM as a whole through the Chairman title. It is increasingly important that the Chair be a GÇÿgood citizenGÇÖ in the game itself - and I cannot be a good citizen and simultaneously lead my alliance of magnificent bastards. With CSM7's term beginning on April 4th, I now exercise my right as the winner of the election with 10,058 votes to decline the office of Chairman. It will then be up to CSM7 as a group to decide how to proceed regarding the Chair. As a member of the CSM without a title, what I do as the leader of Goonswarm will no longer unfairly reflect on the CSM as a whole - leaving me and my people free to do as we please without needing to consider corporate, political, or media ramifications every time we make a **** joke, offend someone, or sell a supercap made of vapor. So basically you got the boot. Also a joke is one thing but what I seen on the webcast was way over the line. Personally I would love to see you charged with harassment and something else if anything happens to that guy. |

Anyways im not suprised that Darius had the least votes and by his posts he wont get much at all next election.
I wish Mitti gets re-elected for CSM8 wich i wouldnt be suprised at since he done shitloads for the eve community.

It is, fundamentally, a problem of hats.
To me, this incompatibility is a fundamental problem for any member of the CSM, regardless of anything else that has transpired in your specific case in the last week. If a sitting CEO were to be elected President of the United States (or any public office), his/her ability to govern would be hamstrung by the threat of conflict of interest claims, legitimate or not. Similarly, any member of the CSM who is an alliance or corporate CEO will (and maybe should) be viewed through the skeptical prism of potential conflict of interest. Are they acting in the best interest of EVE as a whole, or for the best interest of a select minority? I am sure that this question has been beaten to death such that the horse is begging PETA for assistance - but it is still a valid concern.
Quote:The purpose of the CSM is to represent society interests to CCP. This requires active engagement with the player community to master EVE issue awareness, understanding, and evaluation in the context of the GÇ£greatest good for the greater player base."
Based on the above, the CSM should not have certain constituencies (read: their alliance/corp membership) bending their ears. If they do, their objectivity is compromised, no matter how much they try to separate their in-game character from their RL persona. |

I have no love for the Goons, but fair credit to Mittens for recognising the dichotomy between character and player personalities and in the process revealing himself not to actually be the sociopathic nutbar that many would make him out to be. Let the enmity continue in the game, not in RL. My cooking is like my lovemaking - fast, greasy, and unsatisfying. |

All I can say.. after posting 3 different locations that I support The Mittani is; even though we would not see eye to eye in EVE policies is.... I want heads.... Mittens gets banned for 30 and steps down from CSM because he bullied a guy who was down... Which we still have no idea if this was a character trying to troll a troller. So what is the response from some of the Eve community and even a few obnoxious CSM members... To kick Alex when he is down.. Making them just like Alex, by there own definition. I want there heads, I want bans.. Give me them now. They are Cyber Bullying Mittens. CCP feed me some removed CSM heads. I have played this game for 6 years, EVE is mean evil and harsh. If you cant handle the harshness of Eve get out. If your life is screwed up.. log off.. I love this game, but right now... Im disappointed with some of this community, and embarrased by CSM poltical games amongst yourselfs. Politics over, your in CSM now work together not against each other. How do you expect us to believe that you can move forward together for us, if you cant work with each other.

Wow. Just wow.. I didn't even know of this till I got back in today. First of all, I don't like Goonswarm and already i'm thinking of supporting them.
Darius III the door works both ways. The post in which you first replyed to this thread equaled one thing for me.. You don't care about us, just about gaining a spot up in the CSM.
The Mittani, I voted for you because I thought you were best out of the other people on the csm voting list. The fact that you do even though your a leader of Goon understand a few of eve's flaws and are trying to fix it without most of the political bullshit you'd get from other people. Thank you for leading the CSM last year.. This year. You made an fool outta yourself when drunk.. and i'm sure you won't get drunk anymore in the spotlight and I urge you not to. I seen your apology first. If you don't go around doing it again, I won't pull this apology back. Other then that.. I think you made the right choice by stepping down as chair, but don't let these idiots ruin the CSM by their failpolitic's. Your the only one that keeps them in line. :P
Oh and other goons. I only Semi-hate you now. Mostly because.. Well i'm not sure why I hate you, cept that a few of your players get annoying fast. If you have any words to be said with me, you can gladly drop me an eve mail. I'll get around to it whenever. :P |

The mistake that has been made was to provide a herd of mainly males with an abundance of alcohol during a live event and assume nothing bad could come out of it, while at the same time announce the start of a major development feature to a select group of poshed up wannabee alpha's. Some media coverage right there those distinguished brainfarts dont want to be associated with.
Step down from chair over this ? You shouldnt have and i wont buy the reason you give eihter. You getting banned over this ? At first i though yeah ban his ass, but as time sinks in it is an unfitting and pointless penalty.
You dont log in so no loss on that front. You wont be on the Csm, well that's a pickle. Like it or not, you did help with various issues and that input will be missed this year. Unless of cource you will play a role behind the scenes.
Said guy does what ? Mine with a herd of Macks and you gave him a sum of isk as a guesture ? herd of macks = lots of isk. both asset and profitabillity.
Would have been more fitting and compasionate to shelter said guy under the protection of your alliance to mine his heart out in peace and get his act together. Provided the information on said person is accurate.
Well, good luck with burning down Jita. I hope it burns for a loooong time. And if possible do the same with all the other market hubs aswell.
The people, not the accaunts, that voted for you will support you during this latest eve drama. I didnt vote for you, i went for some of the least popular guys just to spice it up.

Apologies about the chair m8, you did what you thought was right in hindsight. I will still vote for you for CSM8, even if you decide to decline the chair again, as I think you do have a way about you that draws people to you and unites them for a single ideal. It is good to have someone in the CSM that is looking out for the bigger picture of the EVE playerbase, and not just a bunch of people who squabble and cannot agree on a point to unite under. o7 from a fellow Goon.

You are reprehensible examples of humanity. You are disgusting, hate-filled monstrosities who are ready to use the publicised mental instability of an unfortunate person in order to get a leg up over someone who has angered you so.
I pity each and every one of you.
Hmmm ... Don't you have a thread on Kugu where you laugh about deliberately targeting someone else who expressed suicidal thoughts for a scam?
I think your disgustometer may need recalibrating.

Also this:
Quote: Although it might be callous, I don't really care about this dude's wellbeing. We genuinely thought he was playing for time & attention by crying about being in hospital after taking an overdose.
Then we put a ton of effort into the scam, and by the time we actually thought he MIGHT be telling the truth, we'd simply put too much time and invested too much to walk away. I'm sorry that the guy is going through a harsh time, but i'm not sorry for scamming him and I doubt I ever will be.

I wouldn't really describe these damage control efforts as trolling. And from the posts on SA and Kugu quite a few Goons do appear to genuinely share this rather weird sense of outrage. Whether any particular Goon does is hard to tell but it's good of you to flag up the fact that people really shouldn't take the statements being made by Goons on these issues seriously. Best to have it straight from the horse's mouth.
Btw, can you confirm for me that the Mittani was 'trolling' with his apology as well? |

The Mittani wrote: The theme of this year's Goonswarm Alliance presentation is going to be Goonswarm hates you - and basically just talk about each different little aspect of demographic of eve of how much we hate them and want them all to die and kill themselves. Like highsec miners, we want them to kill themselves; people who role-play, we want them to kill themselves; people with Titans, we want them to kill themselves. There's just a whole host of people I hope to really offend by telling them to commit suicide while on stage in front of thousands of nerds.

I'm afraid I can't respond to you directly because I took a 6 month ban for threatening to kill myself if The Mittani was forced to resign (like The Wis, I also failed to follow through on the threat). But now I've gone through the arduous process of selecting a different character on the same account, let's have a look at your post.
you're trying really, really hard to score points around this whole anti-goon thing you've got going on and as a result are taking a lot of posts seriously. i'll answer my earlier post for you: yes, you're being trolled bad. also "goon" isn't typically capitalised! |

Actually, and unironically, you are completely right. I more or less retired from eve 6 months ago precisely because I take the game too seriously but I was tempted back a few weeks ago to do some pre-patch speculation. I now find that I continue to take the game far too seriously (especially the ethical angles) and I think I should call it quits for good. I've given away all my isk in the last five mins to deter me from coming back again. As the Zen master with the enlightenment stick I've sent you a small token to buy some Tornados or a new toon.
Au revoir o/

So what is the response from some of the Eve community and even a few obnoxious CSM members... To kick Alex when he is down.. Making them just like Alex, by there own definition. I want there heads, I want bans.. Give me them now. They are Cyber Bullying Mittens. CCP feed me some removed CSM heads. I have played this game for 6 years, EVE is mean evil and harsh. If you cant handle the harshness of Eve get out. If your life is screwed up.. log off.. I love this game, but right now... Im disappointed with some of this community, and embarrased by CSM poltical games amongst yourselfs. Politics over, your in CSM now work together not against each other. How do you expect us to believe that you can move forward together for us, if you cant work with each other. Go play WOW if you want to play nice, go play Star Trek online if you want to have no consequences.
I agree, Mittani is one of the few that made me feel like he actually represented me as a player. I don't even like the guy but i think the punishment was way too much. You want to crackdown CCP? Why don't you crack down on all the players spewing the N-word and dogging jews and gays in local, everywhere in game? Hell, being on comms and chat with PL made me wanna jump off a building myself. |

When did mittens run for the third time? Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.
