Jade, so democracy only works when you agree with the conclusions? The CSM was going to talk about what they decided, including removing Mittens, this was cut short by CCP. What kind of independent body is the CSM now? |

I'd like to raise a historic point. At some points in history games have been seen as the way for people to become more civilized. For example, many students who want to play college sports must keep their grades up. Before online gaming, you could be a dickwad all you want, but NOT on field of play.
With online gaming, we get the chance to reverse that and we have.
Mittens showed on film the face of gamer bullying and his ridicule of a player victimized was the call of a bully.
Bullies are playing hot and heavy in EVE. I'm so astonished how instantly bullies turn into victims if they are called on their stuff.
Bullies are very comfortable ridiculing other players...makes them feel better. They think because it is online, the rules have changed and they can bully people in a game much easier than in real life. They think it is FUN.
Mittens was having a ball at fanfest, but he wasn't there as a griefing eve player. He was there as the head of CMS and an alliance leader. He needs a time out, at least. Frankly, this is serious enough to warrant he step down.
I would respect him if he did it of his own accord.
On the other hand, FanFest was amazing and I'm looking forward to 60 million new DUST514 best friends. \o/ |

sigh really. CSM was never independent of game rules and enforcement of eula/tos. And certainly never "independent" of the need to represent the game in a positive light.
Yes this current CSM has probably lost some credibility by attempting to keep Alexander Gianturco in position which was a stupid move.

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.

Did you get drunk on stage and embarrass the company and player base of Eve Online in the eyes of the gaming media perchance?

Personally, I feel a 30 day ban in accordance with EVE TOS is fine, as you could argue the Alliance Panel in an extension of the forums (especially due to the live feed). Yes, Alex did something stupid but he is doing his best to make amends and appears to genuinely regret his actions; not because of the consequences but because he believe what he did was wrong (a lot of people are judging him on his in-game persona, but I have seen no factual evidence from which to question his sincerity).
His removal from CSM IGÇÖm unsure on, the decision to drastically alter fanfest has me extremely worried.
CCP, you have just gone over the edge of a very steep and very slippery slope. You need to ask yourself: GÇ£If this hadnGÇÖt gone to gaming media and become the story of the week, if we werenGÇÖt concerned with the reactions of companies such as Sony, what would our reaction have been?GÇ¥
If the answer is GÇÿdifferent to our current responseGÇÖ then I suggest you start seriously reconsidering, before you build up too much momentum to turn around. If you try to fundamentally change the mindset of EVE based off the gut reaction of a wider gaming (or worse: business) community who have little or no understanding of what EVE is, you might as well ban all forms of griefing and release GÇÿpay-to-winGÇÖ items, it will be just as fatal to the game.
You nearly lost EVE once within the last 12 months, please CCP, think before you put yourself in that situation again.

No, I got drunk and gave an interview to some podcast or another pretending to be Mittens, which ultimately could have ended the same way. |

I don't particular like the decision (his resignation + tempban would have been sufficient).
But its done now. ALL of you (Issler, Jade, Darius III: you didnt make a good impression), including goons, remember one thing: We all like this game, we all want it to succeed. So try to restrain yourself before you create a marketing disaster that leaves it ruined. (basically, no mass-rage-goon-unsub, ect.)
A jita-burns-event... ok, don't care too much. But think before applying scorched earth to CCP itself. Doesn't help anybody if the whole thing fails. |

Holy shi CCP what are you smoking ? How can someone break the EULA/TOS without logging into EVE ? also he didn't forfeit being on the CSM, he simply declined the chairmanship, maybe you should activate your brains before posting a devblog
leave the handling of this to the CSM, you're obviously incompetent |

I am looking back at some fanfest footage and I can see other instances of the EULA being violated.
Do I assume these are being investigated, also?
Or is your ban just the pandering to gaming-trash journalism that it looks? - "Do not touch anything unnecessarily. Beware of pretty girls in dance halls and parks who may be spies, as well as bicycles, revolvers, uniforms, arms, dead horses, and men lying on roads -- they are not there accidentally." -Soviet infantry manual, issued in the 1930's |

You've played this game longer than I have, you were around when the CSM was actually formed and why it was formed. The CSM should be independent. They are adults and yes it is CCP's game, but interfering with a democratically elected body that in part is there to ensure that CCP is being "fair" in game is a horrible precedent. |

What a complete farce this election system is. 10,058 pay to play subscribers democratically elected our Socialist Dear Leader to be a voice for the people,but c.c.p. (a.k.a. The 4th Reich) has deemed him to be impure and therefore unfit to spread their message of meaningful progress (lol) and superiority over other mmo's. Our goose stepping overlords have made it abundantly clear now that anybody who is in the public spotlight that plays this GAME better not get egg on their face, or they will be subject to harsh reprisals regardless if said offense is committed ingame(within our jurisdiction) or out of game(well beyond our realm of jurisdiction, but hey we are a dictatorship,we give no f**ks)

That is an interesting precedent in itself, that CCP is going to police all of our thoughts and words from out-of-game now... time to update point 5 on the TOS, something like " Yes, we CCP are responsible for actions taken by our subscribers that occur outside the jurisdiction of our game servers or web site." would be more accurate with these recent actions CCP is taking.
it was broadcast via EVE TV..... which CCP control, which means the ToS/EULA is applicable since its a CCP service

hate to be the bringer of bad news to you but 1 , a member of the CSM has just shown that he isnt adult enough to handle alcohol and 2, CSM was never a democracy
CSM are expected to adhere to the EULA/TOS and carry themselves in a manner that sets an example for other players to follow. http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/What_is_the_CSM |
