No they should represent there constituents.

You can suggest anything you want but then again since scamming is legal and supported by most of the playerbase and CCP you probably will not get very far.

That is your opinion and yours alone. I like him.

It is the only issue because as 100 Posters before this have said and will say again...

SCAMMING IS LEGAL IN EVE!

Wonder what?

The Mittani did not break any rules.

Yes. It's called voting. A new round is due quite soon

Being on the CSM does not mean you stop playing the game and become a saint.

Guess you should have voted



Vote him and being scammed as well would've been too much for me ^^

Where did you RMT your toons and isk from?

It seems obvious you're new here. CCP dev's aren't the least bit shy about saying how scamming/backstabbing in an MMO is something they not only endorse, but enjoy themselves.

Go look at some of the dev interviews (pick them at random) and you'll see this game was made by people who probably are cheering The Mittani on. You wont get any sympathy from CCP on this.

You screwed yourself.

Now, since it seems you have lots of isk to give away, how about you throw, say, 5bil my way. I'm tired of seeing everyone else just be handed billions of space money. I need to get in on this cash cow.

They didn't vote him in to give us Hugs. They Voted for him because they like his platform. Outside of that he is a regular EVE player and nothing more.

You are going to be disappointed when they get around to responding to your petition.

no, csm represnt the players who voted for them, which in mittens case is mostly goons and other goon type people. and are you saying ccp should ignore the csm? do you actually want anything changed in the upcoming expansion? becuase smoe (most? all?) of those changes wouldnt be happening at all if it wasnt for the csm, in fact if it wasnt for the csm ccp wouldh ave continued heading straight off a cliff and eve would actualyl be dying right now ( and not the doom and gloom dying, actual legit dying with more mass unsubs)


The CSM is supposed to represent the whole playerbase, and secondly stop talking azs if the CSM have changed the world, because they havent. They may have helped on something, but there are many things they havent done. So give it a rest

ITT, Admiral Whatever went in the Lions' cage with a meat-suit.

With CCP, Mittens in a Chairman. Ingame, he is just a regular dude that likes to fsck over other peoples.

Oh and you might want to read this, It's probably what CCP is going to tell you : EULA

I am sorry but really? Really?

CSM is designed around a REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY.

By definition they do not represent everyone. They represent there constituents only because those are the people who got them elected and are the people who will get them re-elected.

Don't be pissy because no one cared to vote for the guy who represents you.

Actually CSM6 is the most effective CSM in history. They've been so effective that Hilmar is considering tweaking the voting process so he can get CSMs that don't cause him so much trouble.

Build a bridge and get over it...

CCP can't help because Mittani hasn't broken any rules. If he had broken the rules/EULA whatever then sure, CCP would look favourably towards you. However in this instance, you made a mistake therefore no rules were broken.

If you wish to unsub your accounts then so be it, you will still be out of said 20bill, someone is flying a nyx and the rest of us can have a laugh.

Enjoy WoW won't you

He does not represent me but still is a buffer between CCP and me? Doesn't make sense, does it?

He is a scumbag, nothing more. I learned my lesson...Don't trust the ones who shout they wanna make a better game and 'fight' CCP for it. If 20 bil was the price for it, so be it.

But if CCP agrees with these guys who supposed to be a sort of syndicate then I'm disappointed.


Sorry to burst your bubble here but as previously stated in this thread, you should've preformed a background check if you were unsure or waited for a trusted name such as Chribba or Grendell.

CSM are elected from us the players to represent our voice. Just as you vote in a President/Prime Minister, they are just normal people and therefore are allowed to play the game as seen fit. Only rules that appiles is an NDA to prevent new content and stop CSM members gaining an advantage 'insider knowledge'.

EvE is a cruel mistress and you paid the heavy price... Space is a cold, desolate place isnt it?
