So, Mittens got banned for being a giant piece of crap...and goons are "Protesting" a valid and deserved ban. I'm confused about this whole Burn Jita thing, not to mention looks like CCP is showing their support for Goons in full by not only fixing a bug (just so they could do burn jita) but letting them get away with it...

Gotta love Eve Online...

Good to know people support thee single largest grouping of cheaters, hackers, and general scum of the internet! :)

Welp, good thing I've not been in Jita for many a year and have no plans on going there anyway. Suppose Goons think they are "making a statement / impact" with this and CCP's support proves them right.

Christ. Goons aren't protesting anything. If anything, they are celebrating the return of their leader. Also testing CCP's dedication to the sandbox.

And you base this on? Sounds like anger rather than facts.

FYI. There are more people there than just goons. Everyones getting involved and I for one think it's a brilliant Idea.

Edit: somethingawful created most of the early memes and in turn (unfortunately) 4chan.

Actually, he got drunk and acted like a giant piece of crap, got caught, made a fake heart felt appology to appease CCP, CCP was appeased but the PR division stepped in for the new Sony overlords (regarding dust 514), Alex got banned, he then got butthurt like a carebear, and then he formulated this plan that does not seem to be affecting me in any way shape or form.

I'm pretty sure Burn Jita was planned well before the ban.

Also Goons would do this for any reason whatsoever. Like for example is it sunny outside somewhere on the planet? rainy? Did anyone on earth take a breath in the last 20 years?

Burn Jita was planned a good 2 months in advance. A full month before Mittani ever got banned. It was to be a celebration for ~10,000 votes~.

Go listen to the recorded TS session, it was planned AFTER the ban. Where Mittens said, and I quote "CCP threw me under a bus" end quote. The TS recording is on these forums and on youtube and soundcloud, go look it up.

Burn Jita was planned ages ago. They moved the date to coincide with mittens unbanning. It would have happened regardless.

Here it is, for your proof. He was complaining about being banned, and being tossed under the bus by CCP. :) He knows how to complain that's sure.

Can you supply that TS3 recording? Because the one I heard seemed to suggest otherwise.

I think he's talking about 4chan denizens Roll

Burning Jita was planned before the CSM elections as a reward for Mittens getting 10000 votes AFAIK.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

He says right in the recording that I've linked 3 times now, that they are going to go burn jita in response to his banning. Are you people deaf? Anyway, I just think this whole thing is funny. It's all about Mittens being a sad panda and being upset about getting banned. *shrugs*
