As the CSM applications are about to begin, i thought it would only be logical to start my campaign for CSM. We all know that eve has its problems, in fact the only people who say that there are no problems in EvE benefit from these problems themselves. I'm talking about broken market mechanics, marcos, ganking, abuse of wardec mechanics, etc. In fact every day i see posts based on these ideas, which ofcourse only seem to attract the trolls, adding such enlightening comments as..
"lol carebear"
"mmmm cry some more!"
"tears fuel my ship"
and so on..
As CSM i would work towards a future where players opinions matter and allowing us to mold the game around the community.
A wise man once said " a reasonable man will change to suit his surroundings, an unreasonable man will change his surroundings to suit himself ".
I believe in this idea, but i obviously don't mean for my own personal gain. I am talking about the gamer community as a whole. It's time that we took control of our game, it's time me made the choices!
So vote for me, and be unreasonable!
An outline of my referendum.
Introduction of mechanics that will destroy the macro armies and restore stability to the market.
Replace the mechanics of ganking in order to stabilize trade and make the game more entertaining for criminals.
Modifications to the wardec system to prevent unwanted griefing.
Increased system defense mechanics that will allow smaller alliances to secure space.
I am of course willing to answer all questions you may have.
thanks you for reading.
p.s i know a load of you want me to do my avatar, i just haven't got it right yet!

Originally by: Jenny Cameron What's your opinion on bloodline change for free/ISK/Plex?
Well i certainly don't feel using RL money is right, our characters belong to us and we should be able to decide what they are like. I would say that something like a bloodline or ancestry should be able to be manipulated at will, maybe for an ingame isk pay out. On a side note our avatars should also be changeable at will in game. Maybe we could even start buying bling for our characters?

May want to rethink your choice of quotation here.
Unless you mean to say you are unreasonable.

Thats exactly what i mean.
Think about it, do you want a perfectly acceptable and agreeable CSM who isn't going to get anything done and be a complete waste of space, or do you want to make your vote mean something by voting for someone who will fight your corner?

Two worst ideas ive come across in a long time.
You cannot replace the mechanics of anything, it would amount to replacing combat mechanics (Read: SOE, NGE, Starwars Galaxies) and that is bad at its core.
Also, attempting to Quote: prevent unwanted griefing
goes against EVE's entire core of being 'cold and harsh'. --

I'd actually prefer a nice plant for my corner, to help the feng shui.
Maybe you can fight the snowdrifts outside instead?

i think there might be people who want it.
griefing and being griefed, loosing and winning - people sometimes call it "playing a game".

clever diplomatic hint: unreasonable people get ignored. This is especially true with the CSM, which continues to exist only because CCP wills it - they are under no obligation to reveal anything or discuss anything with you. Raging at them will only hamper the ability of the CSM and CCP to actually get anything done
basically, i won't vote for you, and no one should vote for you. good day sir~ _____________________ Look down. Back up. Where are you? You're on a forum, with the alt your alt could post like. |

Well you have basically just said csm's are useless and hense nobody should waste their time voting?
CCP wants to improve their game, it makes business sense.

No, i just said that your particular (extreme) position is useless. There are moderate positions between being an spineless CCP fanboy and being a disagreeable douchebag. _____________________ Look down. Back up. Where are you? You're on a forum, with the alt your alt could post like. |
