Noobman is a WHer, and Jin'taan wants "focus on the issues of balance and iteration on stagnant features such as PI, Faction Warfare and PvE" there are 2 goons, 1 co2, and a NC member, of course null blocks are going to get a few in, 4/10 doesn't seem that over powering. The issue isnt the 4/10 obvious null platforms. Its that you know for a fact that none of the other candidates DONT have other alts. It is the silent alts and where they are found that unfortunately skews this fact. This is the major issue with gaming versus real life politics. It is also an issue in a lot of other factors in Eve itself but atm we will deal with the political arena.
The misrepresentation stems from the ability to have alts and where those alts are, what mains they feed isk and stuff too, and their general political alignments. Not just on the CSM but as a whole. Its why trying to find and destroy high sec alts, high sec alt corps or neutral freighter or hauler pilots is such a big part of the game. This is simply being transferred over in a very unique way to the political arena with the CSM being the largest, most visible head.
This is a very intriguing issue, that of the alt and the virtual world making it easier to "hide" oneself, that MMOs in general have created, especially in single shard universes like Eve is where what we do effects so many others in a ripple effect. Its sociopolitical influence is astounding and a really big issue in real life. Think recounts and multivoters and fake vote casting in an electronic age.
For me this facet of Eve is so amazing to study and look at. And it covers everything, not just sociopolitics, that people come up with by "gaming" the system in these respects.
Have you heard anything I've said?
You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?
That's right.
Had to end sometime.
