That still doesn't make your action tasteful.

I'm wondering how I, let alone 3 of my alts who never forum post or are in any Public chat channels made your list of likely voters and received this spam.

/T

So...what? It isn't any different from making a post on the forums like every single CSM member did. You have the same option to ignore the mail as you did the forum post.

Seriously people...you act like he called your mother a 2 cent whore or something. Get over it already. For Christs sake...he is one of the most if not THE most active CSM members. He actually works to get **** done and isn't in it for the free trip to Iceland. The responses from other CSM members in his own thread attest to that! Why do you get all butthurt over an email? Why would getting a harmless package of data bytes make you so angry as to not want to vote for him?

I would love to see what you guys do when your POS runs low on fuel...

Bounties for all! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2279821#post2279821

If you don't like getting spammed then increase the amount of ISK people have to pay in order to PM you.

I figured Trebor got my eve mail after we had a bit of an evemail chat last year around Incarna.

He gets my vote because of that chat. It was informative and what I like to see from a community representative.

Two ways of doing this.

The Mr Epeen way: Open mail. Note it's nothing interesting. Close mail.

Everyone else: Open mail. Have an apeshit panic attack. Run screaming for the forums. Emopost insane drama in every thread they can find.

I like my way better. Although, yours is more entertaining.

Epeen way best way. Blink
