The argument that a certain segment of the player base was using was that the only reason people were throwing a tantrum was because it was the Mittani who did it, not because of what he did. If the leader of EVE Uni had been on the CSM and did the exact same thing, it would have never been an issue. The vast majority of the people who were calling for the Mittani to step down/get banned did not give a **** about the player who was mocked and only used it as a political excuse to go after him. Which to me, is every bit as bad as what Mittens did.

It wasn't a first. IIRC, he was the third CSM to be kicked out of office.
I sit corrected.

That's the thing. The leader of EVE Uni would never do such a thing. MOST people wouldn't. You're also overlooking the fact that what was done violated Icelandic law - re: Iceland Media Board. MOST people don't get drunk and engage in unlawful activity (then claim being drunk as an excuse.) That CCP allowed Mitt an open mic without a broadcast delay and a kill switch makes them culpable. Don't minimalize this. It isn't a small thing, and it certainly isn't "just because it was Mitt." Though, the fact that it WAS him is more reason why more caution should have been taken by management.
Never drink with the customers.

Where favoritism shows is allowing Mitt to resign. They needed to give him the boot, but good, to allay any doubts about their capacity to be trusted with broadcasting rights. You can't just broadcast anything you want. You can't broadcast a call to commit a felony. In the U.S., conspiring to commit a misdemeanor IS a felony. Mitt had said beforehand he intended to make such a speech. AND, in the U.S. it is recognized there can be a conspiracy of ONE. (The U.S. becomes relevant as CCP has offices in Stone Mountain, Georgia.) This is really an issue you don't want to be in front of.

…as demonstrated by the fact that the “outrage” came, not when he made his controversial statements, but when he was re-elected chairman.

Does anyone know if Issler is a real girl? Maybe next year at fanfest we will get to see some bewbs

Partially true I suspect

For those who used it go go after mittens in the political sense, good, mittens would have, quite rightly, done the same if it had been some one else.

Eve is a harsh and brutal game, as mittens now knows to his cost.

This is not a signature.

One thing is followed by the other and therefor is caused by the former.

I wanted some sort of reprimand and never heard about the comment until after. I voted for him before I did.

Some people did it for political reasons (In a video game as silly as it sounds.) but it doesn't change the event.

No, but it makes their outrage and the baying for blood insincere and hollow and belittles the whole deal even further. Calculated cynicism is a nasty (and very contagious) affliction.

Really CCP need to look at that rule that stops "HS" voting for "HS" candidates.


Wait no they need to look at the rule that you're allowed to smear your posts over everyone's screens like the feces of a deranged paranoid-schizophrenic.

I think I can safely say 93.64% of EVE's player base doesn't give a flying squirrel, one way or the other, about CSM or its members. Let it be.

I've seen this argument used a dozen times by Goons and it doesn't fly with me. That's the thing - the leader of the EVE Uni wouldn't have called for people to encourage someone to commit suicide. He didn't call for people to encourage someone to commit suicide - Mittens did. You can get into all these hypotheticals until the sun turns black and it won't make a bit of difference - it was Mittens that did it, and it was Mittens that got punished for it. To be honest, I think he got off incredibly lightly for a man who was essentially implying that a living human being should be encouraged to end their own existence - a 30-day ban and forced resignation from one CSM is an incredibly lenient punishment when I personally know people who've been permabanned for less.

Here's a hypothetical question for you - if the offending person had been a member of Raiden. or NCDot, or a large hi-sec alliance... no, wait! I've got the perfect example. What if it had been Jade Constantine? I don't think there's a single member of Goonswarm who likes Jade Constantine. Jade seems like an excellent person for this hypothetical.

What if it had been Jade Constantine who had done what Mittens did? Would Goons be so quick to leap to Jade Constantine's defense if he'd violated the EULA in such a manner? Would the Goons be clamouring for him to be allowed to stand on the next CSM, or would they be calling for a permaban? Or would they just not care?

Herp derp, let's make vaccuous and disjointed derogatory guestures, because that will make our arguments valid.
