quote=Dry Martinis]I don't care for goons, but it sickens me to see 10k ignored. Especially when that 10k is most of CCP's business. You guys can hit the goons with at the sarcastic and "moar tears" comments that you like, but they keep eve interesting and keep stuff going. If they all left today eve would not be half as engaging. Keep acting like CCP can afford to lose the pirates/griefers and scammers of eve. When the game shuts down cause ccp can't pay the bills, then you can go play wow or rift I guess. Unless you really think dust is gonna save the day........................... [/quote]
The votes weren't ignored but waisted by Mittens because of his actions. If the table were turned, the forums would be a glow with "HTFU" and "LOL" by Goons and their supporters.
I doubt 10k goons are going to quit (we aren't that lucky.) just because their leader was reprimanded and punished for "HIS" premeditated actions. I'd like to think that some Goons can still think for themselves and realize wrong is just wrong!
CCP knows and understands that inaction would mean far greater implications, not just buckets of Goon tears.
There has to be accountablity for one's action. This wasn't the first time someone in Goons blantantly broke EULA/TOS, just so happens to be the first time it was done in such a public arena as Fanfest.
As for burning down Jita, I hope that CCP bans any participates as this action would be a reaction and support of; someone who has already been banned for violations related to EULA/TOS.
oh... not all pirates affiliate themselves with Goons. Fact is no REAL pirate ever would!
The game will no more shut down because a few goons quit the game. However the game would shut down if CCP were to allow silly behaviour shown during Fanfest. |

You said:
Take your comment for example about banning anyone who participates in the burn jita campaign. That is not the future of eve that I want and I hope that you are not considering yourself a pirate with that kind of mindset.
and I say if the "Burn Jita" campaign is in response to what happened to Mittens then I say "YES" ban anyone who participates as it could be interperted as a support for violating EULA/TOS.
There is no need for a re-vote as the votes were cast for Mittani and he would have been on the CSM7 if it weren't for his violating EULA/TOS. Contrary to popular opinion there is such a thing as accountability for those who violate rules regardless of tenure or position.
I fully support CCP's action and thank them for doing what might cost them a few accounts. So in return I renewed two of my accounts the other night I read what happened. I will probably open two more NEW accounts in support.
CCP's not ignoring the votes. The votes were thrown out in the wash because of the actions of one person, Mittani, no one else. CCP simply enforced EULA/TOS and the one deserving the bad karma finally got it. Wish more people would get the karma they so deserve in game and real life.
EVE is a harsh world, no doubt. But just because it's a sandbox game built around the brutality of living in space doesn't give anyone a right to be an complete arse to people in real life. We've seen too much of it and people are tired of it.
Play your game, but lines are drawn when it comes to RL attacks. I commend CCP for taking appropriate action even though they know it might effect their bottom line to some degree. |
