This is the problem CCP is faced with now.

And im sorry Alex needs to have some highly visible punishment.

Simple apologies do not cut it.

why is this a thread?

The Internet has been around for a while now, stop acting like this sort of thing is new and unheard of.

I doubt the apology is sincere. I doubt if he would have written it without such an outcry. I suspect his immediate response of, "deal with it" was more in line with his true intentions.

(shrug) It may impact how we are perceived by the rest of the gaming world, but there isn't anything we can do about it now. The barn doors are open and the horse is gone. Besides, in six months he's going to be joking and bragging about how he got away with telling his alliance to kill the guy.

I do hope CCP bans him. Not for what he did....

....but what an emboldened mittani is going to do next.


This.


I like the Mittani, I like the crazy arrogance, I like that he is the most powerful player in EVE.

However, CCP has to distance themselves from this sort of thing, they have to ban him. It's business.

What will really be interesting is if The Mittani gets banned and tries to retaliate. Are EVE and CCP strong enough to survive the wrath of the game's most powerful player?

because logic says so, if you allow one to do something you must allow all to do it

There are just as many people who think the opposite. You cannot claim that a handful of people posting on a forum constitute "a large portion of the community" no matter how much you wish it was true.

What little faith I actually had in this playerbase has gone out the window.

Everyone in this thread is essentially the pot. Mitanni is the kettle.

Pot; Meet kettle.

I have never liked the Mitanni; However, this is pathetic. Right now if I had to choose whose behaviour has been worse throughout this 'fiasco' i would pick this so called 'community'.

I find it vindictively hilarious that the only person who wasnt upset about the whole thing was the guy being 'bullied' in the first place.

You are the same group of people who feel the need and right to become upset and take action on behalf of someone else.

Get over yourselves.

So, keep doing it until someone does?

An example must be made if he does not step down himself.

Because they've violated the EULA.

Because that's a death threat. Mittani didn't threaten anyone's life, he gave the guy's in-game name and told people to harass him. That's bad, but that's not a death threat, and it's far from murder. And your original statement had nothing to do with death threats, so...
