Curious where you're going with the question, since there are a couple of possibilities, some more interesting than others. Haven't mined since literally 2006, however. Made my first 100m isk mining crokite with an osprey in syndicate and went "never again". Member of the Goonswarm Economic Warfare Cabal |

How would you go on about fixing that AND perhaps addressing the issue of introducing more small gang pvp? |

Fix "that"? What, my complete lack of desire to ever mine again? Can't fix it, as a multi-trillionaire why the heck would I mine at all?
If I decide I can give you, of all people, a serious answer, I'll post it later today when I'm back from errands. Member of the Goonswarm Economic Warfare Cabal |

Can you please explain to me what a Permanent Attendee is and if that is something that you are looking forward to again? |

Mynnna, I'm asking you this question specifically because not only you have a very firm grasp of the economy and a good understanding of what CCP can and cannot do, but because the term "incursion like event" for mining has been mentioned a few times in this thread.
I agree that having an incursion like mechanism for a new type of mining would be cool - obviously this can't be ring mining - they are always there. So... why not *comet* mining?
I'm not talking about short period regular comets (like say Haley's which would have been mined out long ago) but the long period (or knocked out of orbit in the Oort cloud) comet that has never been seen before, full of primordial solar system materials. There could be all sorts of valuables in there (ores, ices, moon go, gases, certain types of PI good, etc etc), creating a short "gold rush" . After a few days, the comet has been mined out, or crashed into the sun or flashed off or whatever.
Is this something CCP could implement? Can it be done without wrecking the economy? |

It'd be easy to get all egotistical about it but the truth is competition for the two permanent slots was pretty tight last year with a spread of just 350 votes (out of 10,350) between myself and Mangala, the third runner up. So, I do look forward to the strong possibility of it again, but I'm not taking it as a sure thing either.

(p.s. of course, someone thought of it first https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=331766&find=unread )
Could they implement it? In theory I'm sure, I obviously have no idea from a technical perspective. And it's easy to imagine how a miner that can fly at 3k/s might be valuable there too (venture I'm lookin' at you). Rapid movement requirements & environmental effects would no doubt make the mining more interactive and interesting (whether it'd be "enough" more is another question). Throw all manner of stuff into there and you address some of the problem I'd presented earlier with the concept of ring mining, and so long as their frequency was reasonably balanced (and what actually was available thought out) I'm sure it could be done without adversely affecting the economy.

I posted my endorsements this evening.
http://interstellarprivateer.wordpress.com/2014/04/07/csm9-endorsements/
Mynnna is one of six candidates (along with Ali Aras, Corbexx, James Arget, Mike Azariah, and Sugar Kyle) to get a First Tier endorsement from me. Here's what I said about him:
Rhavas wrote:Mynnna: Mynnna may be the smartest person on CSM 8. The Goons may have their quirks, but they didnGÇÖt get where they are by being idiots. Mynnna can spot the proverbial butterfly and predict with seemingly uncanny accuracy exactly how the playerbase will manipulate changes into economic chaos GÇô because he knows what he would do. His insight is invaluable to the CSM and he deserves to be in any open slot you might have even if youGÇÖre not part of the CFC.
Thanks, Mynnna, and good luck on your upcoming term. Author of Interstellar Privateer Shattered Planets, Wormholes and Game Commentary |

What do you think about the idea of simply eliminating Sov as a mechanic? If you're there and you can keep others out, you own it. If you can't keep others out, you don't own it.
Surely there must be a way. Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.-á-á- William Pitt |

Really the question is more like "Why don't we just make all of 0.0 into NPC nullsec", to which the answer is "because NPC nullsec has basically zero of the reasons to want to live there fulltime that sov null has, seeing as almost all the reasons to want to live in and groom a system are tied to sov."
What exactly would be the goal you'd hope to accomplish by just nuking the sov system entirely? Member of the Goonswarm Economic Warfare Cabal |

I find it very irregular to have DEV responses to CSM campaigns. CCP staff should not have any influence at all on CSM campaigns or elections. That includes increasing a certain candidates visibility and therefore his or her chances of getting elected.. Either this DEV thread is deleted, or mynnna gets disqualified for favoritism. It's completely unacceptable. |

The dev response was to a question posed in the thread. Not to Mynnna's running for CSM. |

Use one of the other communication methods or forum threads / pages the CSM and customers have to discuss issues with CCP, there's no need to do this in the CSM election thread. This information is useful to everyone and it shouldn't be posted in an election thread. It's out of place here and reeks of favoritism. |

Actually I thought to myself "that's a good idea", pasted it to a channel with CCP Affinity and said, "this is a great idea, this should happen asap". Fans of the English language will note that there's not even an implication of a request to post there. Had the person who asked the question posted a link to a thread in F&I, I'd have pasted that to Affinity instead, she'd have responded there, we'd have had the same "wow I guess CSM really can get something done!" responses, and you wouldn't be here complaining.
But they didn't, so it wound up coming here. Deal with it?

A CSM member directly illustrating how useful the CSM can be in general and the specific candidate in particular has no place in that CSM member's election thread. Is that what you're saying?

With nullsec industry being custom tailored for your personal needs and agenda. I must ask?
Are you happy with these changes?
Are you happy that the entire games industrial aspect is being custom tailored for nullsec?

Regardless if they're just in the CSM for personal gain or not.
Giving all the power of all aspects of anything to the 1% is never a good idea!
And here I thought that Icelanders prided themselves for doing the exact opposite of what America does.
