John Smedley (‏@j_smedley): @PoeticStanziel @themittani hah all I'll say is I'm in the CFC now :)

Admittedly, he was probably saying this in jest, but hey, I figure this should give some of you tinfoil hat wearers a bit more lines for your CCP / Goon / SONY conspiracy flowcharts.

Even if he was saying it in jest, the fact that he mentioned the CFC and replied to The Mittani shows that he is taking at least a semi-active role in the EVE community -- and apparently isn't shocked and repulsed by what he sees. This is a good thing all considered.

But yeah, the great pubbie hope that you will be able to convince "Daddy Sony" to make "Mommy CCP" stop Goons from being Goons? Yeah, good luck with that. :)

What. That's hilarious.

Hope he doesn't really go for TEST though. It would be horrifying to see what a pony-filled mind might lead to.

Oh no, it's Sony's plan to kill us. From within.

It's time to carry out a though purging.

This is the guy who managed to kill franchaises like SWG and Everquest. I cannot even imagine what he can/will do to EvE.

Oh well, it was good while it lasted...

You mean people trying to kill us from within, or the whole purging bit?

Spais get purged now and then, they slip up.

Considering he works for a Japanese company, who knows how badly the various subcultures may have messed him up.

@PoeticStanziel this was an fun read. I just play the game and that's it. I love hardcore PvP. Couldn't agree with Mittani's blog more.

I must bookmark this for the next CSM election.

Proof that the Goonswarm contains paid members of Sony and therefore has the ability to make CCP rig the elections. So if goonswarm win its a setup and CSM8 is a puppet or that any goon candidate should be ineligible to run.

I should be able to blow that out to 20 pages Big smile

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!
