I hear that CCP is allowing the formerly suspended, should have been banned, now Mittani media startup to write a book about eve-online. I think the cover should be a wall of flame, with the words burn new eden on it, because CCP just burns all their own rules when it comes to Mittani.

Is CCP partially owned by Mittani? Does he sit on the board or something? How does he get away with not being perma banned after the Eve-Fest / Sony fiasco, death threats, real money transactions, on and on?

Shame on CCP.

Wait til the Eve-Fan videos hit You-tube of players burning the new book in protest!

Your tears as well as all of the tears this book is creating and will create are glorious.

Youtube is great for creating negative publicity about subjects when the truth becomes known, effecting change on a broad scale. Once the world wide gaming community sees people burning the new CCP book in protest, they will come to find out that CCP accepts and encourages bullying, harrassment. and violence outside the game, not just within. Eve might get a Rated-R!!

This will be epic!!

Goons is not good for EVE.
Goons started out with the objective of shutting EVE down and winning the game that way. It has only changed because Mittens is making real money off a site based on EVE now.

I think a side shot of Mittens holding a box labelled "CCP" to his pelvis would be a more appropriate cover picture.

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

We're talking about The Mittani, here.

This book will mention EVE in passing but all it will be at it's core is a masturbatory autobiography of lies. The cover will be a picture of Himself in all his cosplay glory.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Not really relevant to the OP but I thought it needed saying, anyway.

I'm not a fan of Goons (they are sometimes funny, and I remember their antic in Star Trek online fondly, mainly because they didn't happen to me, I'm not stupid enough to let unknowns onto my bridge), but that's ridiculas tinfoil-ism there.

Hell, it's out right prejudice. Goons have always said they don't want to destroy the game, they want to destroy YOUR game (meaning they enjoy the tears of people they screw with). The only thing it ever took to beat goons is NOT CRYING like a kid because of what they do.

If CCP let us put mottos on ships, mine would be "You can take my Vale of the Silent, you can take my Fountain, BUT YOU CAN NEVER HAVE MY TEARS, Alba Gu BRAH!"

A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.
