You just keep on thinking that. Its not like he has any way to actually track who voted for him. Nobody in the CFC was ordered to vote for any specific candidate. Encouraged to vote is different than ordered to vote. Encouraging people to vote for you is called campaigning.

Clearly, the line has been crossed and no amount of "I don't remember what I said and I'm truly sorry" will fix the negative PR that has been brought to CSM, CCP, Eve Online, and most importantly, Eve players as a whole. Nothing short of resign from the CSM or being removed by CCP, that is.

Let me say that again since it's important: The Mittani's behavior in the fanfest is the antithesis of what CSM council member should stand for. The shame is not only on Mittani's voters, but in a degree, all of active Eve players due to the number of votes he received. Great power... or popularity, rather, comes with great responsibility. Since a revote doesn't look realistic, It's time for the Mittani to look for a solution with CCP, such as appoint a successor, who isn't a sociopath that announce his or her interest of rallying harassment to force another Eve player to suicide in real life.

Notice how easily it could have swung the other way and ended witht he guy dead by his own hand because he was told by a tonne of people to do so?


Personally as a person who went through a depression/suicidal phase while I sympathize with him greatly at the other time I am disgusted by him

As you said yourself, there is no excuse for it. Every minute you continue to serve on the CSM contradicts that statement, as you are excusing yourself.

Let us know when two and three are done.


One is done, both here and to the miner. Three is done. Two takes a post, and I should probably discuss it with the CSM before I mash butan.

I think Two Step would make a fine Chairman, though.

You know, I've made my jabs at Mitanni, but I've been thinking. Maybe we should give the guy a little bit of a break. He's really only human, right? We humans sometimes screw up.

I will not feel represented by another CSM than the one elected legally.

What Mitanni said in Alliance presentation talked for it self, he presented his excuses thing is done.

WTF THIS STUFF HAS A RATS ASS TO DO WITH CSM??? -you bunch of paranoid hypocrites.

It just keeps going, and going.

Wonder if we'll get a statement from CCP tomorrow.

You have to understand, this apology is coming from the same person who runs an alliance that literally finds most of their fun in screwing with people. It's a LITTLE hard to take this apology at face value.

I'd still have to say that I think you should step down as chairman, Mittens. The only way that an apology from a goon can be considered heartfelt and honest is with a gesture as big as that...


He didn't just apologize he also sent the dude 10.7 bil ISK.


Ohhhh then it's perfectly ok.... jesus.... how morally bankrupt are you?


Your right, he should obviously sign over his house too.

Maybe let the dude come over and bang his wife.


No, he should step down from his position of power in order to solidify his intentions. 10 bil from a leader of an alliance as large and prevalent as the goons? Hardly a gesture.


How would this do anything but disenfranchise 10,000 people who voted for him. Oh wait it wouldn't. But then this isn't really about telling people to harass someone who is perfectly ok, not actively killing themselves, and 10bil richer.

I mean the timing on this whole thing is comical.

Lets drop the bullshit pretense about him being a bad goonie man who you don't like and get down to the nitty gritty: No one was harmed. Someone came out richer.

I doubt a single person who voted for him is protesting, and it seems to me that the loudest complainers are the people who voted against him.

There is a saying that "The real you comes out while you are drinking". If so, is this what you have been like this whole time, Mittani? You may think it is funny to make fun of suicidal people, mittens, but I assure you people's lives are not a joke. I also cannot believe the amount of people on this forum defending mitten's horrendous behavior.

Hard to believe this apology (drunk excuse - lame) when your earlier comments in the forums are totally opposite dude. You think you are good at PR campaigns but next time might not want to use your usual ******* style on multiple posts before trying to appear the not understood victim. Sheesh. Not everyone are the stupid lemmings you think they are. You have shown what and who you are.

Don't loving fall on your sward unless the other CSMs think its a good idea. Form the outside you seem to be a pretty impotent guy for getting CCP to get the right stuff done. We know your a jurk, but your our jurk and you loving useful.

How many of you think that if we did this that we wouldn't be looking at a week-long suspension from the game, care of CCP?

So a majority of eve players shouldn't be represented. As an asshat, I must disagree with you. Trolling, scamming, tears, and butthurt pubbies are part of the game, as much as ice mining or afk ratting. It's a sandbox, and just as in real life, some little kid is going to get sand kicked in his face, and his helicopter mother is going to get real bitchy real fast.
