Really? Good, then my comedic endeavors are complete. Thank you, you've been an excellent straight man, for a, well, you know.


BTW: if they're laughing at me, it's odd, because quite a few seem to be, you know, agreeing with me.

Unless you mean, you know, your fellow goons. Since, they just laugh whenever Mittani turns on the 'Applaud you Sheep!' light, it really does not count for much.

Wait a minute, you said a few posts back that we control CCP. Perhaps you are a bit confused.


Paint, I have the feeling that everything that I say to you passes through a filter that increases it by an order of magnitude. I said that punishing you was unlikely because they think you'll mass quit if it were to happen, and they don't want to see any big spikes in subscriber loss, particularly right now with every other MMO showing a drop in subscriptions.


Yeah punishment is unlikely mainly given the lack of punishment in other such circumstances in the past, AND the know on the payroll Goons currently working in the company now. They cant hurt their friends.


Good to know, I guess the Mittani Banning, and his removal from the csm as well as the asset seizures ongoing currently are just figments of our imagination.

Or maybe you are just an idiot.

Edit - no you are correct - Mittani is just a clever cover name. Don't tell damn it.

saw a commercial for these guys. Apparently mittens actually DOES need their services, or did when googling his name = cyberbullying cause we all know cyberbully = child molester



Actually, if you google him, articles like this: http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/14/feature/6263/The-End-of-The-Mittani-Era.html

still top the list.


Goons need to create some positive press.

I got that

Cyberbullying is like #3 on the list now lol


i like how all i have to do is type "the mit" into google search bar and of the immediate suggestions "the mittani" is second on the drop down box lol


Mitt Romney's wife calls him Mittens. I think the guy we know as The Mittani is just a smoke screen
Or Romney wishes he were the real Mittens

And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking, but when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, oooh, the sky is the limit.

You mean how he just hops right back on the next time around and pretends like nothing ever happened?

Yeah great punishment there.
30 days ooooooooooo
and yeah that twitter rage was such great type acting by the way.

btw when you pretend to punish someone who then pretends to feel feelings, its still pretend

A 30 banning is not what anyone else would have gotten. The EULA suggests a permaban

Gee, cheat and get it confiscated. Again, beats the bans that members might have gotten if CCP ruled it an exploit.

The real comedy here is no goons are upset at all. Only a handful are involved.

The real fun is poking idiot pond scum pubbies like yourself with a stick because you are too stupid to understand what is actually going on.

What I understand is that goonswarm have again succeeded in making themselves look like assholes and CCP look spineless in the public eye.

Again.

I'll just point out that you guys are playing a very stupid, and very dangerous game, for you. Eventually, someone at CCP is going to find themselves in a position where it's gonna be a choice between their job and giving goonswarm the heavy end of the hammer.

And I anticipate much tears and threadnaughts when they make their decision, because I doubt that you're going to like it.

The EULA applies to outside of the game now? (Hint: No.)

The Mittani banning was a travesty of justice, only done because a bunch of buttmad sockpuppets started attacking the CCP / Sony partnership. It was a masterpiece of metagaming, but remember this: For all the frothy ranting about how "Goons want to destroy the game", when faced with the opportunity to attack Goons via literally trying to destroy the game, the Pubbies actually tried to ruin the game just to spite Goons.

Close. He stepped down from CSM6 knowing CSM7 was starting in a few days. CCP intentionally misread his post in order to suggest he was stepping down from CSM7 and, in a bit of a loophole, banned him at that time. Since they banned him at that exact time, he will be allowed to run for CSM8 -- which was very intentional on CCP's part.

You are intentionally missing the point. This is not about the "exploited" materials being seized. CCP is also seizing unrelated funds and resources. This would be like getting a warning for speeding and coming home to find your house impounded.

Well we have been playing this game a very long time, this character, as an example, longer than you. So if KalMittani wants the blood of a few more Galente infants for his bath, who am I to say no?

I will admit that Paint's posts on the subject alone would be very humorous to read. I imagine that it would go something like:

'DAMMIT CCP! You promised us ETERNAL LIFE AND BIG TITTED NINJAS ON A PIKE! Why are you banning us! IT'S INCONCEIVABLE! We and WE ALONE dragged this game up out of the slime!'
