CCP - You host an "unfiltered", drunken troll-fest, then cry foul?

I'm not going to talk about the actions of any one person, or whether they were right or wrong or should do whatever as penance.

My question are to CCP who seem conveniently corporate damage control on this.

Quote:

We are undertaking a full internal review of this panel as well as the process used for vetting the panel's materials. Even though this panel was billed as unfiltered by CCP, we expect public presentations to be courteous and professional towards others.

Sorry, but this seems contradictory.

- You don't vet the content i.e. "unfiltered".
- You encourage and promote the innebriated state of the participants.
- You have promoted a long history of "naming names" and mail tear showcasing. Basically the more cutting of others the better.
- You feed it all live to the public.

Quote:

Exactly how is that expected given the nature of the event you have held here?

CCP I think there are more questions for you than there are for anyone else. Such as:

- What is CCP exact policy/process on reviewing presentations for the Alliance Panel? Does CCP contribute to the creation of the content?
- What are participants briefed on with regards to "no go" topics before they appear?
- Are participants briefed on CCP policies that would be relevant to a live global broadcast?
- Does CCP make any evaluation of a participants "fitness" to participate before they take the stage?
- What delay/dump protocol does CCP use in broadcast of these events? If it exists why was it not used?

CCP - you have a lot of explaining to do in my opinion.

EVE has been a drinking fest since forever, it has always done fine. Just because someone made questionable decisions and now blames it on the booze doesn't mean we should have to change that. Perhaps it would be better to simply revoke said person's access to any future fan fests, just to make sure he won't do anything silly again. To me that sounds like a far better plan.

Excellence is not a skill, it's an attitude.

Who from CCP let drunk people on stage if there was a chance this kind of thing could happen?

You missed the bandwagon bro. It left town yesterday.

You asked me once, what was in Room 101. I told you that you knew the answer already. Everyone knows it. The thing that is in Room 101 is the worst thing in the world.
