So first yes Corbexx will be joining goonswarm.
I'll be playing more on my alts now than him, which I was sort of doing anyway. One of the main issues of being on the the CSM is that when ever you log in you get bombarded with convos and mails. It makes it actually hard to play the game I enjoy very hard.
I'll still be in w space with my alts in several wormhole's. As alot know I have characters in 4 different wormholes so please don't think just cos Corb is in goons I won't be in W-space.
I'll still be working for W space so dont worry there.
I have a couple idea's and projects lined up already on stuff i'd like to start with.
Corbexx for CSM X - Wormholes still deserve better

Nothing in regard to "Corbexx the CSM rep" has changed, and anyone who complains from a CSM standpoint is terrible. He was the best option yesterday, and he is still the best option today.
Relax folks...

Look i can understand you want to do something you will find fun in the game, it is a game after all go for it man.
What i can't go along with without saying something though is you have been in discussing/planning this well before election and as soon as you are elected bamn you are putting your CSM elected character into grr goons. I find it personally very decieving from you.
You have been a great CSM and honestly i think you will still represent us well this year but i think you already know this will be your last year as CSM so make it count i guess...

I guess the biggest question everyone has is "why you do dis?"
If you really aren't going to be playing Corbexx much, you will be playing all your alts then why bother put him in your primary constituents and most of EVE's most hated entity? You want to go to Lazerhawks/SSC/Vipers/Isogen/(I guess other wh groups exist?) no one bats an eye, but Goonswarm just seems all to convenient with very little reasoning being presented...

I think that most of the people worries about the fact that he was not a part of a powerblock at the time they voted for him but from a community which was almost a family as most of people which were part of them could be ennemies but always ready to help each others if someone was looking for help, then they feel betrayed that 1 day after the CSMX election their favorite candidate announces that he will join GSF.
Then people are thinking about, that CSM candidates from powerblock are hardly relevant, as they have been elected to represent their alliance and defend their interests, so you can't be sure about their real ideas. |

If he announced it before election he likely wouldn't have been elected on the wh votes. To make the switch after the election is just a **** move. Likely knowing it would have ****** him beforehand. It stinks.
It just comes as a very hamfisted move and a bit silly. You essentially shot yourself in the foot and burned off lot of good PR. Which is a damn shame cause you usually came across like a level headed and competent guy.
You'll have to pull off some seriously amazing good work (more than already, which is a shame again) to mend some fences. |

ugh so conflicted. On the one hand as long as you perform as you have in the past year Im happy....but on the other I dont like it, results or no results, because you literally alienated the majority of your voters by going to a null block and everything you do or CCP releases that touches wormholes will be questioned because of the corp tag.
Am I upset?
A bit. I thought I was voting for a wormholer and i got a goon (It doesn't matter to me what you say about alts or not playing on main)
Is it gonna change my opinion that you will be a good CSM? **** no. I still believe you are a great CSM and while everything you do for the wormhole community in the coming year will be questioned by anyone that can afford to buy tin foil, it might just work out. |

I voted for corbexx and the views he ran on (disclaimer: I have no experience in WH). I don't vote for corp tags.
It's a bit hypocritical, I think, to fly off the handle about bloc voting and then turn around and make assumptions about people just because their corp is one thing or another.
He wants to do the job he signed up for. Please support him.

I have no doubt that Corbexx will continue to work hard with CCP on issues that matter the most to wormholers, and that will be touched upon in CSMX. (Tech3 rebalance, structures, capital escalations, capital rebalance etc).
Will it make it harder to communicate with some/many of the community? Maybe, but that is up to him and us to work out.
Is there a potential to get a 0.0 csm block (+ sugar) to get behind important issues for w-space; yes, but Corbexx has done an incredible amount of work on his own and when teamed up with another csm.
Best of luck in the CSMX! (I will continue to suggest stuff on Skype) |

Well, have to say that the venue and timing for this alliance change and possible shift in priorities does cast a dubious shadow on all this. You didn't delay this announcement until being elected by your peers as a WH representative to CSM with full knowledge that you wouldn't had been elected if your voters would had known you're jumping to another wagon right after the lections, now didn't you ?
In RL politics that would be conspired as awesomely **** move towards your voters and frankly no matter the intentions, results or actual loyalties it does make us voters feel like we've been had.
In that sense a perfect goonie material of brewing a **** storm in a wineglass. |

What options for discussion have been closed because Corbexx wears a different alliance tag? The only obstacle to overcome is the absurd hysteria amongst some wormholers that anyone with a [CONDI] tag is a baby-eating monster powered by mind control lasers from Lowtax's secret moonbase.
(Of course what this really demonstrates is that wormholers were never interested in voting in Corbexx the player, just in the partisan prestige of having one of "their guys" on the CSM)

Goons have always had a few bearing corps in C5 and C6 space, but they are slow to catch up with NC. when it comes to usage.

Dear everyone giving corbexx crap about this: you need to step back and check yourselves. corbexx was a wspace veteran while most of you were still running level 4s in T1 fit drakes. He doesn't deserve the flak he's getting here in the slightest, especially after how well he's been doing on the csm so far.
At least he s being up front here, unlike other groups who spend 95% of there time in NS but still call themselves wh corps. I have zero doubts that corbexx will continue to be an outstanding wspace csm representative.

Instead of laughing my ass off like my friend Calli there, I am facepalming pretty hard in "what the ****, dude?"-mode.
Alienating a lot of people just to get some internet spaceship fame isn't exactly the smartest stunt I know of.
EDIT: I voted for both corbexx and Endie, so I'm not conflicted and confused just because corbexx is a Goon. I'd probably facepalm equally hard if Endie had gone all "HAHA! I am actually a sleeper agent for CVA! Amarr Victor! You were all fooled!" |

Well - the problem i have with this is simply that he waited right until his reelection was announced. Change in one or two months and i'm fine with it. Make your own choices - but running with the NOHO Tag that has secured him a lot of the w-space votes (like it or not, many people voted based on the alliance ticker) and changing to CONDI the second after the election just feels wrong.
If corbexx would have changed to CONDI before the ecection, would he have been elected again without help of the CONDI ballot? I'm really not sure if he would have...I would have voted for him anyways, due to his good work in the past but he didn't wait until now solely because he couldn't make up his mind..but because he didn't want to risk his reelection..and that's why i feel a bit betrayed.
Would i have voted for him if he changed midterm or at any other timing? Yes (I voted for Endie as well but i expect at least basic honest behaviour from someone i consider for CSM) Will i vote for corbexx again after this? No, although i dount that he'll be running a 3rd time.
I don't like the Goon leadership solely because they have to troll and metagame the **** out of everything and this is just the kind of timing that truely fits them. So...well played Goons, just the kind of stuff i expect from you. |

Sadly i gotta say this was a **** move. Really should have thought of the repurcussions from doing this, ok so you may not have meant to alarm anyone and insult the wh voters.. but you have! After coming to suddenly and saying you are looking out for lowsec too, it strikes me as if you are just vote hunting, quite underhanded imo. |

Are you entitled to change corps/alliances - Yes Are you entitled to change playstyle and location - Yes Are you good at timing - No
Simply put this decision was badly timed as we are entering a period of unkown for W-space with the looming T3 rebalance, Capital rebalance, Structure changes and other smaller stuff alluded to.
Prehaps using an alt would of been better as now a lot of faith in your motives are shaken
