I think this will all be let go if The Mittani shared a video of him FCing an op while fapping to IGB pron. If he could do that I would vote he be appointed head of CSM for life.

Here ya go!

I believe this sums this whole thread up nicely.

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!

its not classed as cheating
and the isk is from the fountain of tec
and no one will mind several GSF fc's using this toon
not like surge is going to ban his friends own accounts over it


It really wouldn't be of much use to our FCs since we don't do armor fleets for strategic ops.

Why can't someone buy an alt now? I mean ffs, what next? Mit's crosses a road to buy a pint of milk from the shop but it's actually a ploy by GSF to alter milk pricing for the third world.

Sure some people think buying skills/characters is OK, many think it cheating, but was very surprised to find the CSM chairman doing it openly...

Glad to see he sticks by his word of no transactions for game play advantages. Roll



Another thread about a legitimate practice within the game, supported and moderated by CCP, being "cheating". If you don't agree with a rule, then post in the appropriate forum about not agreeing with the rule - don't accuse others of cheating when they are playing the game within the rules. It is insulting, shows a lack of character on your part, and merits nothing.

If I buy a Maelstrom and destroy your Rifter, I didn't cheat - I played the game within the rules. Same applies here.

I for one am appalled by the notion that our Dear Leader would betray the public trust so recently granted him by a wide-eyed and forward-looking voting populace. It is my sincere opinion that with this dastardly action, he has set back years of negotiations and irrevocably damaged Goon-Pubbie relations with brazen disregard for public perception in his pursuit of wanton largess. Make no mistake, ladies and gentlecolts: this will be dealt with, and the Heart of the Swarm shall rise up and devour this false messiah, this traitor to our glorious cause. Down with Mittens! Vote for Kittens!

The only way for us to bring down the monster—no, the tyrant—which has taken the reins of our noble coalition and bring justice back unto the fold is for us to subvert Venus Vermillion. Though she has done nothing wrong and would suffer for her action, I honestly think that the best and perhaps the only course right now for us to take collectively as a nation and as a people is for us to conspire to have her abscond with the Titan Funds. Mittens is too strong within the framework of Goonswarm itself—and infinitely more so than a mere Kitten—to take on directly, but if he can be pointed at and shown to be super-deep-cover-spy, then I think we can bring this entire house of cards down on top of him and leave him shunned and alone with a bewildered look upon his face. And isn't that, dear friends, what EVE Online is really about?

Since when is buying a character in the official character bazaar forum against the rules? The extent that you guys go to in the attempts to smear Mittens is astounding.

Look man it's not a matter of fact it is a matter of principle which is at stake here, not that I would expect someone so under the control of Dear Leader to understand what that even means. Sometimes it is more important to recognize the principle behind a decision than it is to recognize the decision itself, a fact which I am sure is lost on your jack-booted, hypnotized responses. Get it through your head, man, the jig is up and this story is about to blow the Clusterfuck wide open. John Wayne's not dead, he's just frozen, and when The Duke wakes up he's going to be madder than all hell and at that point you really need to ask yourself which side of The Line you're going to be on. I don't know about you, brother, but I'd rather be on the side of Truth, Justice, and The Duke; moreover, it is entirely possible that Hulk Hogan AND Macho Man Randy Savage would be there, which I am sure I don't have to tell you would be pretty much The Best Thing.

We already have her in Theta. Stage one is complete.

Stage two, however, looms close...

Thanks for posting this, when I read it I literally laughed out loud. Poor mittens, showing he supports (and indeed buys) things that give an in-game advantage on top of the CEO of CCP expressing publicly concerns about the null sec slant of the CSM.

Well you reap what you sow as my Grandma always said. Comforting she was right.



Could you show me where The Mittani has publicly spoken out against character sales for ISK?

Look here, you brain-dead automaton: The Mittani ran on a platform of freedom of all, of egalitarian utopia in a dystopian future, of pink fluffy clouds and most importantly—pay attention, because this is the relevant part—not being able to pay to win. You know what happens when you have a big, shiny alt? You win. And guess what The Mittani just did? He paid for that advantage, right there as clean and as clear as daylight. If you disagree, then you're wrong; if you try to squirm around and present multiple sides of this story, then you are some sort of fascist propaganda machine; if you "Like" my space post, then I will post more space posts; if you do not "like" my space post, then I will post more space posts. The truth is inevitable, and We The People feel that we deserve it, and more importantly that we are entitled to it. We want answers! We want the Truth. Step away from the screen before you immolate yourself with your halitosis and wall-eyed stares, because this is about to get "real".

This is what we have to do. The Mittani, AKA The Man, has to be shown that he is not "too big to fail". This is an error, misstep, that cannot go unrecognized or unpunished. We have to tear him down before we can build him up; then, only once he hits rock bottom will be be free to be the hero that we truly need. But not yet. He's not ready to be Batman. Right now, he has to be Edward Norton in Fight Club, and you and me have to be his Brad Pitt alter ego. The first soap was made from the ashes of heroes. Can we truly consider ourselves loyal goons if we do not do everything we can to redeem our Dear Leader? You bring the lye, I'll bring the rope. We will make him better.
