The longer our tearful CSM Chairman stays playing Skyrim the better, that way he is not here actively screwing up the game for everyone who freely chooses not to be a full time ganker. Let's hope it is so much fun he devotes all his free time to a fantasy game where he can loot and pillage without Concord limitations. The Chairman of the CSM becoming an avid full time player of Skyrim equals a win for the greater good of the greater body of players in EVE that he holds in utter contempt, don't hurry back Mr. Chairman.

I wonder what lessons of gameplay wisdom Mittens will take back from Skyrim to be applied to EVE.

I'd imagine there's some stuff to be said for solo player content after all ;)

Removing minerals from drones would be a very bad idea. Mining isnt dead because of the drone regions, only someone who has never mined in null would say this, mining is dead because its impossible to stay alive. Even with decent tank an entire mining fleet can be wiped out by 3-4 stealth bombers. You cant stay alive period. And when your mining ship is 200 mil for the hull alone, welp you're pretty ****** there. If you could keep your ship alive you could make bank in null, problem is once that industry index hits 1, you're guaranteed to have 3 or 4 twenty four hour cloaky camper jackasses in system just waiting for you. So no, mining will NEVER come back in null. Unless something is done to make null mining defensible in some way, only the completely insane, or the completely ******** will mine. And no one will buy it anyway because its easier to import everything. Even when mining was going full swing i could only get maybe 25% of the minerals I needed for subcap production, I dont think there's an alliance in existance that could mine enough minerals for a titan in a reasonable time. Last time I did the math it would take 3-4 years for one alliance to mine a titan in null. Just leave things how they are. You wanna mine, go to highsec or **** around in low. Otherwise, switch to industry or get your ass in a combat ship and get the hell in fleet.

Mittens, for the love of god, don't listen to any of these fucktards on this forum when it comes to industry. Please please please please. I have NEVER ONCE seen anything from any of these idiots that makes me think that they have ever done any real mining, built a ship, even looked into cap building, mined ice, researched a bp, or anything else mining or industry related. Its just the same **** of putting down any and every ******** thought that comes into their heads while not knowing a thing about what theyre talking about.

Oh, don't you worry, the rest of us have enough contempt for idiotic pubbies and AFK Bot Minters that are ruining the game to make up the difference.

Yeah strangely enough I took about 8 months off eve and rediscovered single player games... It was quite refreshing not to have my computer constantly abusing me ;)

He'll probably come back and ask for more dragons in 0.0.

Ser Mittens,

What is your opinion of the attribute system? Some suggested changes include removing the ability to remap, removing attributes from skills altogether, or changing the effects of attributes to something more interesting. Do you favor any of these ideas in particular? Has there been any discussion regarding attributes between CSM6 and CCP? If not, would you be willing to bring it up as a future topic?

Princess sadly the Chairman thinks all miners are wasting their time and not playing EVE. EVE is all combat all the time if you believe the posting from our Tearful Chairman and his loyal toadies. I just wonder if everyone followed their lead where would they get the ships to fly an ammo to shoot?

Most of the hive minded minions do not have the capacity to perform PI and think thru all the steps it takes a product to transform from raw material to marketable product, genetic victims of limited attention span it seems. Instead of figuring it out they hold disdain for their betters who can make things and enjoy PVP as well.

Our Tearful Chairman has said some players want to build their own empires in Null, and it sounded as if he supported the notion, but how can you build an empire when everyone who builds anything from anything other then salvage is shot to pieces?

Truth be told if Null is so superior to Empire space why don't the goons and their ganker pals just stay there and gank each other non-stop 23/ 7 365? Because without empire space Null collapses. If our Tearful Chairman wants to dispute this i challenge him to keep his vermin swarm out of High sec for 6 months. Show us their style of play can survive on it's own merits. Accept the challenge Head Goon or just dish out some insults like they are not your tears because YOU KNOW YOU NEED empire space an in empire space WE KNOW WE DO NOT NEED YOU.

The nuts and bolts that make up a player based economy is what is beyond the understanding of our Tearful Chairman and that is why he will be limited to this one devastating term as CSM Chairman. Thanks to their punitive Ice Miner interdiction they have awakened the "Carebear" majority and the goons and their hand picked high sec flunkies will see the power of majority in the coming election.

Math does not favor the loud, the goons are a political minority and they just need to be put back in their place.

Mr. Chairman you have said two things that fall like a ton of bricks upon your credibility, #1 goons don't mine, #2 there are no mining bots in goon sov systems. These are easy statements for you to make because anyone trying to prove how false your statements are has a gauntlet of deadly systems to traverse to witness it. So your amazingly absurd statements stood unchallenged, until now.

You are the CSM Chairman, ask CCP to no longer respawn asteroid belts in Goon Sov systems with ores that can be mined keep the belts for ratting only. This should make your constituents jump with joy because none of them mine right? If you are unwilling to do this then please stop spinning the yarn that goons don't mine it's laughable. Put up or shut up.

Hrm. 3 things.

1) Why do you keep adding the word "tearful" all the time? Do you even understand what the word means?
2) There are quite a few roaming gangs going through Deklein each day, actually. Have you tried going all the way up through the region, or are you just assuming it's "oh so deadly" if you're in a fast ship? A newbie ship, frigate or shuttle should do it just nicely. Please, do give us a detailed report of the findings you make on this trip.
3) Why don't you ask CCP if they can remove the asteroid belts from goonspace in a petition? Actually, please do so, and tell us if CCP responds with anything other than "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA no".

Seriously, your ideas are getting weirder and weirder by the minute. If they weren't as hilarious as they are right now, I'd ask you to stop, but given how hilarious they actually are, please continue.

Zim you are a loyal supporter to the throne I expect such comments from you, so please continue to speak for our Tearful Chairman he needs all the help he can get.

(Rumor has it a Dragon in Skyrim is roasting his toon there as we type) Maybe you should get 10 or 30 of your goons from Bat Country to save him. LOL just kidding he is probably having a great time looting and pillaging and destroying things.

tear·ful/ˈti(ə)rfəl/
Adjective: 1) Crying or inclined to cry.
2)Causing tears; sad or emotional ; “ a tearful farewell”

Yes I know exactly what the word "Tearful" means but just as importantly I know you are living down to the definition of the word Goon in these threads like an automaton spouting the absurd party line.

goon/go͞on/
Noun: 1) A silly, fooloish, or eccentric person.
2) A bully or thug, esp. one hired to terrorize or do away with opposition.

I'm certainly not a friend and supporter of the Mittani, but this is really getting tiring. There is a proper subforum dedicated to bashing the Goons and getting bashed back in turn, you know. This is not it, and neither is it the Assembly Hall.

The Mittani has in this thread been arrogant and mildly abusive a couple times, but it is his thread and it serves its purpuse, which I can respect. I'm not sure your denigration of anything that smells of Goons here really serves any purpose at all.

I have seen some good posts from you elsewhere, constructive thoughts on some issue or other. Things worth discussing. Why don't you keep it there?

BTW, sorry if I'm singling you out unfairly - but you do post alot...

Amazing that posting a definition of the word "Goon" is my "denigration of anything that smells of Goons", I did not select their name, i merely pointed out how some players have adopted it as their style of response in the forum threads. Any honest reader would be hard pressed to post a legitimate argument against either the content or the context of what i posted. Those readers with an axe to grind or brown nose points to earn are left with the argument of last resort available whenever the message is too powerful, ..... attack the messenger.

I expected such responses ..... because really ....... what else you got?

I understand completely if you are tired of reading, lots of players can't tolerate anything over a paragraph unless it's full of abbreviations. I'll try an accommodate those afflicted thusly in future posts. rotfl!

Also would you please direct me to some of the posts you have made chastising the goons and other like minded players for their constant and REAL denigration of "pubbies" and "carebears", names they feel free to attach to players that those players have not selected themselves, i'm sure you are consistent on this topic, right?

Or does your sensitivity begin an end with goons and their alts posting in this thread and many many others with the thinly veiled, short form, juvenile caliber insult of are you mad bro? Signature party line of those ill-equipted to make an intelligent response but nonetheless feel compelled to say something they think is witty.
