If they have broadly the same interests then what is the issue? Isn't the point of the CSM to address these issues?
And, as it stands there are only a few key components of the game that can be brought up, all of which most everyone is interested in.
They are:
Usability[U.I. etc] Sovereignty Mechanics Space Quality[And all things pve] General Ship Balance New Features
It would be nearly impossible with the small player blocks to be able to really organize an effort to steer CCP towards an outcome that would benefit any specific player block in the game.
Everyone is interested in general ship balance, and there are no racial blocks of which you can really speak. Everyone in 0.0 is interested in having fun sovereignty mechanics. Everyone in the game is interested in space Quality, and Usability. And most everyone is interested in how new features play out.
Yea, i just can't see it happening.

Why are names being made public? Surely this is not a requirement to run, since everyone is going to be running essentially on their eve persona. I understand the reason to disclose name, but not a reason to make it public.

Originally by: CCP Xhagen You have to be able to travel to Iceland is the only requirement. That means you have to have a passport. I don't know how it is to get a passport if one is not at a legal age. But, we did not pose any age restriction.
Signing an NDA involves being 18 though...
No it doesn't.

What, do you believe there will be no press coverage of this ? And the CSM members won't be quoted (with real names) in some of the news-items ?
Frankly no, if i were elected i would not expect to be quoted in the media, and of course you can always opt out of that[or at least opt out of being named]

No it doesn't.
An NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) is a legally binding document.
You have to be the age of consent in the country that the NDA is written for (country of origin for the company it applies to) before you can sign it.
In this case, you have to be 18.
No you don't. it only means that the contract is voidable.
At least it does in the United States.
And likely in other countries, since minors need a method to purchase real property or inherit real property.

Read what Xhagen posted, he explains it better than I do as I didn't post about minors and parental consent.
Being at the age of consent still applies to being able to sign an NDA and for it to be a legally binding document, which in this case, in Iceland and most of the rest of the EU is 18.
Hence why CCP will not allow under 18's on the volunteer programme.
Then its a iceland thing and not a NDA thing.

From the PDFs :
Because election winners will ultimately make appearances on EVE -TV and EON , candidates must run under their real-life names, and may either create a new character or use an existing account name to give themselves an in-game identity.
So, there you have it...
Yea, because we all know all those Eve-TV folks were named Spiral Junkie and Stavros by their mothers...

Quote: It is very important that the information entered match with the information on your passport scan.
Does this mean i should lie about my current address, because my current residence is not the address which is on my valid and not out of date passport.

I agree with Hardin.
I would also kinda like to know if i would be disqualified because my contact address isn't the one on my passport.

Was there any thought to not releasing the names of the Candidates?
Cause i don't see a good reason for doing so except opening up candidates unnecessary retribution and harassment.

Appearing on Eve-TV and EON is not a legitimate reason, while i haven't been watching the duration of the run. I have not witnessed anyone being referenced by their real name. Even developers are referenced by their moniker or handle.
If you know who we are, and we know who we are, then why does everyone else need to know, especially if they will be voting for Goumindong or Verone or Bane Glorious and not John Kilgore or Barry MacDaniels? It very unlikely that anyone will run on anything other than their forum presence, but making the disclosure optional would be a better idea to allow someone to run on their own good name while not forcing everyone to open themselves.
It was decided very early on to require people to give up their real life names in order to run, and that the real life names were going to be made public. This is of course the first run of the new CSM and thus I will note down this observation and take it into consideration for the next term.
Why not simply not disclose unless it becomes necessary in execution of duties of the CSM and save yourself the hassle?
I can't see how changing the non-voluntary disclosure to a voluntary disclosure would be a problem for you. You will still be receiving and verifying identities, you still have account information. The only thing that changes is that people don't get told our real names unless we want them to.

edit: by the way, the EVE-Online.com forum software keeps screwing up URL parsing. The above link is just supposed to take you to http://eve-helldump.com, if that's any indication.
Put the entire URL in the quotes next time.
