Nixon was the peoples choice here in the US.

He resigned. No one was disenfranchised. There was no "re-vote."

True story.

Dude, Mittani rendered them worthless by his behavior.

CCP had to react after all the "out of EVE" press.

If the election has been tainted by The Mittani's behavior, it should be thrown out, and new one held. If The Mittani has destroyed the integrity of the current CSM, a new one should be elected.

Or is this not really about The Mittani's behavior at all?


The CSM and the election were in no way tainted by mittens. Mittens tainted himself.

CSM7 starts on April 4th.

No ones votes were wasted. Mittens was in fact elected to the CSM and the chair...and then he screwed up.

He's the ONLY person any of you "I CAN HAZ RELECTION?" people should be mad at.

If you feel like mittens stepping down was a waste of your vote, Mittens wasted your vote. Take it up with him.

Mittens stepped down as chair from CSM 7. He will still have a seat and the CSM will decide who shall take the chair.

Sorry m8, but check out the latest devblog. Mittens wanted to step down from the chairmanship only, but CCP went full ****** and nullified 10000 votes in the process. If you voted for mittens, then you are now effectively punished along side him.

Mittani committed the crime and got punished. You goons shouldn't have voted for a sociopath and you wouldn't have wasted your vote.


Crime? Do you mean giving out the name, which CCP has laughably claimed wouldn't have been allowed into the slides despite the national anthem ransom slides having plenty of victims names? CCP either has completely inconsistent standards there, or didn't actually vet the slides at all and was covering their ass when they claimed they did. Or did you mean the tasteless and unfunny joke about trying to get the guy to kill himself at an event that for years now has been filled with alcohol and tasteless and unfunny jokes not much better? The only reason this prompted any sort of action at all is the gaming press, which were fed a rather sensationalized version of events, which is not at all consistent with it being just punishment. Why do you think this blew up 3 DAYS LATER and not when it happened?

And surprise surprise, he was replaced by his vice president, not his opponent in the race. A vice president still represents the same people, an alternate intended to take part in the process regardless and only come to meetings in Iceland if one of the main 7 can't make it doesn't. Do try to actually think through your analogies before using them.

Yes your post is quite an example of bad posting but I don't think it will make it to the news.

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

Three things

1) This is my main. Ran for CSM twice btw.

2) You reap what you sow, should not have voted for someone who would do something that they would have to resign over.

3) .... Goonie tears, best tears.....

Actually your wrong.

Spiro Agnew was Nixon's VP. He resigned before Nixon did. Gerald Ford was appointed as Nixon's VP. After Nixon resigned Ford became president of the US. He was elected as a member of the House of Representatives. So, after Nixon resigned the US had a president that was never elected.

So your argument is that a replacement VP picked by the president represents completely different people? That's an interesting theory you have there.

Wow the amount of goon tears present have made my day.

He did something stupid, admitted it and apologize. Doesn't mean he shouldn't accept responsibility for it. You all knew that there was a chance that something like this could happen. Not CCP's fault he did something that stupid thus throwing your votes out the window. As a quote that goons were so keen on using before this happened "HTFU"

Get over it and move on. Maybe actually talk to the other members of the CSM about your concerns. Shocking I know there is more than 1 member on the council!!!!
