It wouldn't matter whether it was the Mittani or Chribba, when somethings wrong its wrong.

Funny how every goonswarm post is in defence of their awesome leader by default, kinda like how he got voted chair in the first place Roll





It's funny how he got more votes than he has people in the entirety of the GSF alliance.



Cause I keep all of my characters in the one alliance too.

This may come as a shock, but there doesn't have to be a law passed against something to file a lawsuit over something. All you need is a damaged plaintiff, like a victim who attempted suicide for example, and a good argument for comparative negligence. CCP doing nothing about this would help that argument quite a bit.


problem is that the "victim" here doesn't give a rat's ass


The problem there is you're ignoring the possibility of future lawsuits in which the victim does give a rat's ass. And sues. CCP won't make the same mistake you are though.


Once Mittani issued a public apology and indicated that he was absolutely NOT in favor of harassing The Wiz (formally rescinding his previous stupid comment), and considering that no harassment took place in the meantime that would absolve Mittani from any legal issues.

CCP regularly bans anyone making any form of a direct death threat IRL if a petition is filed, absolving them of any legal wrongdoing or potential lawsuit.

As much as you'd like to blow this up into a huge drama, there is little chance of that.


And I just keep wondering... What is worse? The actual drunken comments that The Mittani made or these insidious attempts to usurp and destroy a guy who took responsibility, apologized publicly and from all intents and purposes (from my observation) is genuinely sorry.

Seriously what's worse? Opportunism from this incident or the incident itself?


Guarantee you 90% of the people here have said some much worse ****, I know I have in the heat of the moment.

I bought the gun, I went to his house and waited, then when he walked through the door - I shot his ass.

But it's ok, I apologised afterwards and told them I was drunk - for those 7 days.

Yeah doesn't really add up does it ?

So when is the new chairman due to be chosen ?


What... in the hell... are you talking about???

LOL Andski, you are even funnier now.

mittani, do us a favor and GTFO fast. That's not something CCP should take lightly. Not everybody is stable minded but they live among us and we don't mock them. We don't mock blind people, we don't mock people with any sort of handicap. We should help them. NO MOCKERY ! HELP ! See the difference? I guess not.

And that is exactly why CCP will have to ban The Mittani. Because in a way, inciting thousands of people to grief someone until the victim commits suicide is worse than telling someone "go kill yourself" on forums. I believe people have been banned for exactly that.

I believe you are griefing him right now. How about we ban you?

You sure as hell are griefing me.

If you run into more than 2 a**holes in a day, you should probably look in the mirror.

Let us know when two and three are done.


One is done, both here and to the miner. Three is done. Two takes a post, and I should probably discuss it with the CSM before I mash butan.

I think Two Step would make a fine Chairman, though.


Don't do it Mittani people are just jumping on you for a drunken comment.

All these people have done the same thing when they were drunk, even if it was saying to their boss that they think his wife's hot and wants to plough that one....just me then? :P

They may very well decide to do that, at their own discretion. They are certainly under no legal duress in this matter, no harassment actually took place.

Sincere apology my ass. He's only sorry he was caught on tape and his arrogant, drunken rant posted on the internet. I sure won't cry when CCP throws his sorry ass under the bus to fade the heat from this PR debacle.

You people defending this sort of behavior are damn near as bad as Mittens. Look up the word "enabler"... Roll
