Burn Jita

First time in years I've heard such WONDERFUL news on the eve forum. I think I'll do a little dance.

On a sidenote, I really don't care about what happened, I see that as "normal" in eve honestly nowadays. But if that thing got a goon rear end firmly parted by a boot on his way out the door... Then it's a freaking celebration to me. Where's a party emoticon when you need it?

Well seeing as the CSM members posted seconds after this thread went live either they knew it was coming or they just got very lucky indeed. My money is they were told what the decision was in advance.

Yeah it was made partially in response to the developer corruption scandal that involved T20 and Band of Brothers alliance and make sure the players had oversight to ensure that could never happen again.

The irony is we almost had a situation where Mittani was boasting of being in control of developers and influence within CCP and replaying this corrupt old scenario again. Had Mittani not been appropriately punished over his behaviour at Fanfest many many players and many external media sites would have considered he was being given unfair treatment that other players could not expect.

Ah Goon tears. They sustain me.

*snip* That was uncalled for. Spitfire

Dude. Goons can quit and war for their region will fuel up eve to some nasty temps.
Nobody gives a **** about a bunch of whiney noobs
If they leave it's going to be awesome. Big null space to fill!

Obviously more valuable than any of the goon/goon pets' insights.

Seriously, if you cannot argue more, just shush, stop pretending you're intellectually superior just because someone chooses to stay in a NPC corp because the fact is you're not intellectually superior. out of arguments, accept it that you have no grounds for arguing.

um, yes he did, listen again my dear goon.

Wasn't it goons that were praising CCP not that long ago when a nerf to tians was announced? My how the mighty have fallen :)

I approve

Quick goonies, go "burn jita to the ground".

Goon tears....so many goon tears....*nomnomnom*

As for the 10.000 voters....its not CCPs fault that you candidate shot himself in the foot and can't represent you anymore. Take it up with him.

Well, i do agree with the desicion, but it will hurt the game in many ways wich makes me even MORE angry at Mittens...you just couldn't pull yourself together. All this talk about "beeing a politician" and "understanding how this works"....and then you do something STUPID like this. Well done....not.

You morons say "10,058" like it's a large number. Do you even realize how many of those votes were probably alts? Do you know how many votes Obama alone received in the US 2008 presidential election? 69,456,897 votes. 52.92% of all of the voters in the third most populated country in the world. Kinda puts things into perspective, huh?

If Obama went live and told everyone in the US to feel free to call/mail/message a specific person and tell them to kill themselves, do you really think he would still be in office for much longer?

Most of you won't un-sub. Of the ones who do, I'm sure many, if not most, will inevitably re-sub. If you don't, good riddance.

Why don't you try looking at it conversely? Out of 59,109 votes cast, Mittani only received 10,058. That means 49,051 votes were NOT for Mittani. 83% of the votes/voters did NOT want Mittani for CSM. So while you're all bitching about how all 10,058 of you wanted Mittani to be CSM, consider the fact that the other 49,051 of us don't give a **** about what you think.

Math rules.

Grow a spine would you and get your facts straight.
There is only 8323 people in your alliance and out of the 123 corps under your umbrella, 3601 are under the gewns ticker. So even if all 8323 voted which is highly unlikey unless all corp's kick inactive members after 4-6 weeks your only looking at 2000-3000 active players based on a 1.8 vote per person with a few other alliances in CFC making up the numbers.

So No there is probably only 2-3k bumble bees and the rest are Pubbies arent they ?

Mittens,

This only happened because you didn't have your Douche Canoe Protection Insurance. Avoid future costly errors, by depositing 10058 million isks into the wallet of Agonising Ecstacy. A certificate will be issued forthwith, indemnifying you against the costs of such blunders in the future.

Amidoinitrite?

From the TOS:



Not to excuse what was said but how about some responsibility accepted for the debacle by CCP for allowing the presentation participants to get blind drunk before going "on air"?

CCP's actions where hardly responsible when 13 year old kids (well below the legal drinking age in many countries) where able to legally access the live feed but where subjected to constant references to the glorification of irresponsible drinking, therefore CCP need to issue an apology for their part in this and review their policies towards these issues before the next Fanfest.

Ya i know that's the most probable route of action for ccp .. but .. the CSM rules state NO EXCEPTIONS.
He must NOT be allowed into the CSM again, as per rules.

Otherwise, ccp is opening a very very dangerous door.
a) goon special treatment theory's are proven right
b) mittanus claim on his recent ceo update where he claims and i quote: "One could additionally argue that IGÇÖve spent so much time in Iceland this year that IGÇÖve become co-opted by CCP; I have too many friends who work at the company and I donGÇÖt want to **** them over " (source)
c) CCP wont be able to permaban anyone from CSM in the future, since a new precedent is set.

Once again, i am waiting for some official answer on the matter, altho i understand it's not a easy subject to reply to, must be answered, otherwise CSM <-> CCP <-> GOONS relationship is not as transparent as CCP claim and needs further investigation, at the possible cost of CSM complete collapse, not to mention CCP/EVE itself.

At least he won't drink before presentation any more. what a tard, oh wait... he's goon...

And then do the opposite - or at least think about it again and do it the smart way.

Alex/Mittens supporters....

Eve is a game focusing on a harsh environment where you are never safe and no one is truly your friend.

Deal with it, pubbie.

Because you won a election( even with vote rigging and manipulation ) doesn't mean you are above the law nor should CCP make a exception , that would only give the wrong signal
I am actually suprised CCP didn't change the rules since CCP so blatantly favours those certain group of people
anyway good riddance eve will be so much better for 30 days without that white trash

Cute that everyone thinks he should be let off.

Darling that they think 10k votes are wasted when most people have more than one account and probably voted with them.

Sweet that they think the numbers matter, what are they going to do unsub? Hahahaha. If that threat was maintained everytime something happened Eve would be in negative numbers.

Epic to see that no one is beyond the rules, no matter the size of the ego.
