Today we shall have a celebrity contest! (My apologies to the players Justin Bieber and The Justin Bieber, as this article is not actually about them.)
Remember how I introduced Miroslav Hebky and pointed out certain characteristics that are continuously exhibited by people around EVE? Let's get to it.This time with pictures!
Did you know that Bieber stands for moustache in czech? (Usually as the unshaven childish mustache just like in the pic!)
I have written this in czech a year ago, but hey, green life says recycling is good for you.
Who's Justin Bieber and what is he (or she) like?
Skipping over the wikipedia article devoted to this public figure of girly teenage hearts, let's go with characteristics I have chosen:
 |
| Bitch can't even shave. |
- JB has a talent which draws attention of the infantile masses. Which in turn makes his existence known even through the rest of the population. Except for Ozzy Osbourne, he knows not.
But let's say you ever looked for inspiration among the top X musical content and probably heard of him. Of course there is nothing wrong with anyone listening to Justin Bieber. Do what you want, in space nobody knows. - Is recognized as a fag and an arrogant prick or simply ignored throughout the non-fan community, cunt for short.
- Has a devoted fanclub which follows him and together they throw a big trantum every once in a while.
- Is becoming less and less relevant to an average Joe. as he never really was.
Anyone in EVE like that?
Ok based on the characteristics who could contend in our EVE life?
Ok based on the characteristics who could contend in our EVE life?
While many contenders may arise from many walks of public EVE life like CSM, NPSI and CCP dev commmunities I shall skip over to my the personal favourite of mine, The Mittens! ^_^
Who's Mittens you ask? Well played.
 |
| Close enough. |
To be perfectly honest I know not much of Mittens as I only heard of him of sorts.
He is an interesting fellow to say the least, with history at CSM and lots of other stuff going on. He is attributed lots of stuff most of which is questionable as it is constantly questioned by the opposition. See example:
Player one:"Who is Mittani?"
Player goons:"Oh, he only did -boring enumeration- ."
Player one: "Single person all that? Wow. What a guy!"
Player two:"No, he just shat over someone who did and took all the credit. Oh and also there is that fanfest thing."
Player one:"I see. Grr goons. What a cunt."
You see, he is part of somewhat part of the folklore of EVE by now, gets a mentioned every now and then. Has a news site which recently decided to relaunch just to get rid of the stain of his name from it. Anyways, he is a good example of negative publicity being also a publicity. Even CCP took advantage of his loud mouth in their scope thingy!
What is not questionable is his often called upon (this makes for a really good last resort in any anti-Mittens argument) behavior at 2012 fanfest which has a video proof! YEY!
Mittens: "... if you want to make the guy kill himself, his name is ..."
Well he kinda FUCKED UP there. (btw, he made a forum post in which he apologizes, so it's like all fine.)
I mean plenty of other people do this too so whatevs, but ever since we have the B4R program (hi, Olivia) and this so called "common decency not to push it too far" well, his behavior was frowned upon at best.
But that has been 4 years ago, let's not hold grudges, because those are long term investments of hatred which might not come to fruition, because EVE is falling! Make a wish! (Not really though. EVE is as strong as ever, come play, use my referal program, join my corp, be my pal!)
I believe there has been talk of him being banned, but since he was spotted recently I think not.
More or less he makes a good figurehead for his bunch of cunts known also for vandalism on the EVE online monument and other lovely things in addition to being selfproclaimed strongest in the game.
Made a good business RMTing, or at least so it is told. And at the very least is profiting from plex referal code system.
Ok, sidetracking aside. Let's get to JB characteristics list:
For funzies I decided to give an opportunity to the esteemed audience to make the call, the deciding factor will be ISK. There is an alpha account with api access:

Ok, sidetracking aside. Let's get to JB characteristics list:
- Yes. Mittens has proven himself being a strong leader of his community which some come off as questionable characters, sure they are probably not teenage anymore but some of their in game behavior begs to differ.
- Yes. Poll of Jita local chat approves.
- Ever heard of goonswarm? Me neither. But yes. Burn Jita events made for a splendid display of childish trantrum disguised as content. (No salt here, was not even near there. But I am sure it made for some). Also the world war bee I think some of you might have heard of.
- Some of the alphacas (is what happens when you mix alpha, alpaca and someone who fucked everything up) probably do not know Mittens, and after the overly publicized war nobody gives a shit again.
Final verdict
From the attributes I picked so they would suit my conclussion, because I can. I judge thee, Mittens, kinda like Justin Bieber.
You have the love of your people and hatred of the people who don't love you. It happens. But how much of each?
Bonus: A poll! Make your voice heard!For funzies I decided to give an opportunity to the esteemed audience to make the call, the deciding factor will be ISK. There is an alpha account with api access:
