It costs less than two hundred US dollars to buy 10 billion ISK.

That is not real money.

I find the claim of the Mittani that this amount is meaningful extremely insulting.

"Sure I BLEEPED your girlfriend, but here is a whole two hundred dollars!"

"Wow dude, that's like big money, no problem!"

"Really?"

"No. Not really."


The Mittani ****** his girlfriend!

This changes everything.

Is she hot?

Last time he was bragging about being a bigshot DC lawyer, he was a paralegal. That was a few years ago though. If he's gotten his degree, I'd like to hear from which school. Proof or gtfo.


He has probably discovered that law degrees from schools that aren't part of the Big Law top schools are nearly worthless in America today.

If he has crushing debts as a result of foolishly believing the stupid lies pouring from the media then I suppose I have some sympathy for him.

Of course he only has that debt because he was stupid enough to take their stupid lies seriously. And I could say much nastier things if I wanted to speak like a typical Goon.

Yes, yes... this is a good start, Mittens. But I think CCP also owes us an apology, as does the entire GoonSwarm alliance.

And also Lowtax.

Correct - his drunkenness is no excuse. We read the post and agree. It is no excuse. None. Agreeing with you dude. It was no excuse at all and he admits it. So that some 'get out of jail free card'? Explain that non-logic?


No, it's not a get out of jail free card.

However, the fact that he has publically apologized for being a shitheel, gave the dude who we blew up and who he went 'Hey go harass this guy heh' 10.7 billion isk, everything he had in his personal wallet, and now will discuss what should happen with the CSM and CCP IS.

Wis is fine and more or less stumbled into 10.7 billion isk out of the blue today. Maybe if Wis had actually killed himself, or made some sort of attempt on his life, then all this damn indignation and moral superiority would be proper, but nobody came out of this worse for the wear. Mittani learned a lesson about how maybe he shouldn't get drunk off his **** on a live broadcast, that he should choose his words carefully, and now CCP and his peers in the CSM can decide what happens from this point. Everyone screaming and hollering that he NEEDS to step down and how he's a shame and disgusting and whatnot are showing their own immaturity for not being able to forgive a man who's admitted he did wrong and made amends for it, especially in a case like this where nobody's gotten harmed.


Sensible stuff.

Don't totally agree with the last sentence however.

He will be asked to make further amends I'd imagine, stepping down from Chairman probably. Have to keep his mouth shut for a bit and concentrate on pissing people off in-game likely but talk of perma-bans are way off the mark.

If only bar associations listed lawyers licensed to practice law.

Mittani

If I believed you actually care about the game and it's future development for the entertainment of all, rather than for the select group of individuals with similar immature and reckless atttudes you represent, then I'd believe the apology.

If you really care about the game and not just your self interest, man up and resign immediately. Go off and carry on roleplaying the super villain, which of course I believe panders to your childish egomaniacal sense of worth. By all means, continue leading the herd of bleating sheep you call an alliance to glory, just don't think you can pander to the masses ("pubbies"?) or CCP and worm your way out of a display of total real life arrogance and lack of decency.

CCP if this foolish individual continues to hold onto his CSM title it will make a mockery of the organisation. I strongly suggest he is asked to resign.

There's no excuse for what I did - while some might try to use my inebriation as a mitigating factor, I put myself in that compromised mental state, and the guilt of that is entirely mine.


I'm starting to seriously question if anybody's reading the actual apology.


You seem to be one of those people that no matter what the offense, 'I am sorry' is supposed to make everyone accept it as fine and dandy.

Eve people are better than that.

Yeah, if it wasn't for any of that, Mittens would like... magically not be a horrible person.


Battered wife assumes he is hitting me instead of arranging for all of my ship losses to magically be payed for. And all I have to do is show up on ops nothing because peacetime reimbursement is pretty boss.


10.7 billiong ISK...
"arranging for all of my ship losses to magically be payed for"...

I'm starting to see a pattern here...

Hey Mittens, can I be your friend too? Oh wait - I'm not for sale, sorry.

I like how everyone is glossing over the fact that Mittens did not give a f-ck about what he did until he realized that he'd really screwed up after watching all the relevant media on it. He's not sorry because he realizes what he did was wrong and feels bad about what he did and realizes that he's a horrible person - he's sorry because it had personal and "professional" consequences. What he's doing with this apology is trying to mitigate the damage.

I mean this is a guy who admittedly enjoys ruining the game for other people, and has admitted that that's why he plays this game.

Get your heads out of the sand. All Goonswarm is is propaganda - they even have youtube videos about it making fun of the EVE playerbase for being dumb and falling for it.


This is amazing. According to your logic anyone ever who shows regret and apologizes must be disbelieved because they might have a hidden agenda. The world you live in is a sad one: Nobody can ever feel sorry for what they did, because nobody will ever believe them. When a young boy hits his little sister and apologizes, the parents beat him/yell at him/punish him harder because he is obviously now lying. Your pessimism is more troubling than Mittens' low alcohol tolerance.

Get real. All the crappy anti-mittens trolls either have something to gain and are hypocritical (Darius III), are blatantly half-intelligent brothel runners (Jade Constantine) or already hated the Mittani and goons to begin with. It's nice to see that there are a large group of people who can see the apology for what it is and move on with their lives.

Also, Krutoj owns hard. Make this man Chairman when Mittens resigns.
