Congratulations CCP, you just accomplished everything you claimed you were setting out to stop.

Yes. CCP brought this upon him. Not the rampaging goon idiots who can't tell the difference between reality and game. Nor is it Mr. Alexander Gianturco's fault for his inappropriate real-life threats over a game. Nope, it's CCP's fault Roll.

1. It's all of you who can't tell the difference between real life and the game, not the Goons.
2. It's not a real-life threat (see point 1.)

You're right. Encouraging people to drive someone to commit suicide has nothing to do with real life. It's all just fun and games.

Drama Llama: working as intended. CCP get attention, Mittani gets an excuse to have happy fun times in Jita, The miner Guy gets bilions.

Are you not entertained?

Are you kidding me ????????????

CCP did this... they surely didn't !!
Mittani did this, he was the one that put his name out there, it's sick that it seems a lot of you guys cant take responsibility for the actions done. Not even Mittani himself

Sociopaths ftw. It seems
All of these threads should be stopped now!!!

Perhaps you should just become a lot more smart and informed, because, sadly, at the moment your post contains a bit less intelligence than that of a smart amoeba.

It would be harassment, if his ships/pos/assets/etc were repeatedly killed for no gain whatsoever.

Going after 1.1B is quite a profit, esp. for PvP-ers, who are poor.


PS. Of course, if I ever bother to undock and meet the said person I would immediate speed the hell up in the opposite direction, because there are no rules for CCP.

If you are driven to committing suicide because your made up toon in EVE got a bounty put on his head or someone came along and blew up its ships. I am sorry but your account should be banned and stay banned until you can provide a Doctors note saying everything is fine.

If plp decide to attack this character, within the rules of the game (they have every right to) and now thats harassment???

2 Solutions right now for CCP, either remove ALL PVP from the game, or take down the servers.

Oh and if this guy is really thinking about suicide he should prob quit the game imo, if its really too much for him.

suicide ganking is a form of heroic pvp? wow you toughboys, go ahead if it is your will, but don't complain when the hammer drops.

You guys are not as important as you think you are, and the behaviour you all exhibit further proves that you all need to get a grasp of real life and stop been overly attached to your little space ponies.

FYI this just got posted in other thread

However, as soon as any action steps outside The Magic Circle and threatens harm to anyone in real life in any way shape or form, or when you incite others to do so (or when your in game actions are specifically geared towards that, joke or no joke), you break the EULA/ToS; even if you are only stating intent.

Any GM will always take immediate action when this is done.


it's your decision what you do, and when you do, man up and take the consequences.

Oh yea, it's all CCP fault.

They need to get rid of this CSM crap altogether.

It was nothing less than terrorism that Mittani did.

It has nothing to do with the fact that Mittani called the guy out in his stepping down post saying that the only reason he was stepping down as chairman was because the victim didn't completely accept his apology as sincere.

Naw, nothing to do with that at all.

Nobody is calling it heroic, but it is a part of the game. Whats next, umm i get suicide ganked and just out of spite i'll say the guy was harassing me and now im contemplating suicide..... hopefully he will get banned.

Btw I think that guy was bullshitting just to make Goons feel guilty over his loss.

Hope the OP is spouting nonsense and this thread is a troll.

If there is indeed a revenge assassination hit placed on 'The Wis', I'm sure the Eve Community would have no problem in funding the same thing to happen on all those involved.

This is definitely a clear case of harassment. I seriously hope their ISP numbers get banned and are never able to create another account with CCP.

What I see here is a bunch of butt hurt little testy goonie kids throwing a temper tantrum.

Pull your head out of Mittanni's ass. Right now any action taken against 'The Wis' should be considered and probably will be considered harassment due to all the recent developments regarding this whole Alliance panel issue.

Im ok with that i guess.


They aren't using the in-game bounty system, dumbass.



Wait seriously

I think that is definitely not ok.

Then get CCP to fix the broken in-game bounty system.

As long as they act within game mechanics its not harassment, sorry, but CCP brought all the attention on the man in question, he wasn't going to be bothered until they made a mountain out of a molehill.

If i was the man in question i would actually talk to a lawyer, as CCP has unquestionably put him in a position where the largest portion of the game possible hates him


Think that if you want. If said people go out of their way to harass that guy they will get a ban. I'd be very very scetchy on going out of my way to get this dude.


1) You make yourselves look like a bunch of babies going to go bother someone that had no idea that Mintanni would get HIMSELF banned


2) They are going to get the banhammer. CCP is not going to have to time to listen to your half-assed RP, clever use of game mechanics reason as to why you are harassing said person. They are just going to ban you, and no one wants that.

Don't be idiots, don't get yourselves banned for something so silly.. Why implicate yourselves as some sort of accomplance after the fact?

The said it's wrong, you'd just be commiting the same offense..


blowing up someones pod that has a 3b isk bounty on it is NOT harrassment. It's good business sense.
