CCP is the only entity I trust with modifiying the game mechanics.
End of story. 
CCP has a long history of manipulating playing conditions to suit their own needs/requirements. Heck... why was there an internal affairs position appointed? Why are there these so called 'players representatives' elections? Why indeed?
Simple answer... CCP employees cheated their customers and this is nothing more than a PR exercise to facilitate damage control. You know, bring something out that CCP can claim is 'revolutionary' to the media. Never mind the fact Sony brought elected class reps/correspondents 5 years ago. Nothing new here. CCP cleaning/covering up for employee malfeasance.
CCP is simply using a ongoing weakness in their company and attempting to spin it into a media positive. So, voting is important if you want to trollop along with CCP's marketing/spin department vision for distracting the player base from chronically poor customer service.
I prefer not to be so gullible.

Thing is though Taikun, the fact that you hopped on this thread almost immediately after it was posted means you more than likely spend alot of time on this forum, participating heavily in eve etc- Hell you even have a very nice sig! Those facts and the fact that you still subscribe to Eve at all tends to diminish the appearance of your own conviction to your argument. Im no fanboi of CCP, but dont you think that there is more to the CSM than *that* incident that happened almost 2 years ago?
I really dont know why people continue to rant/whine/bi-tch about ccp WITHOUT giving an alternative, whether its about nerfs, player conduct or employee conduct for that matter. All you are doing is just bringing alot of irrelevant negativity onto a forum that really needs to clean itself up.
Im not saying dont post- but dont just ***** about something without providing a decent alternative. If ccp did nothing you would be complaining about that- if they sacked most of their staff you would accuse them of fascism- if they go to the playerbase for ideas/ opinions, you accuse them of PR fluff.
What exactly would make you (and the other whinny posters like you) happy? Why not just play the game itself and not get involved at all in the meta/running/community interaction that goes on if it really, really bothers you that much?
if they really wanted us to vote then let us vote on stuff that we want or don't want..
like "capitals in highsec, removel of suicide ganking, removel of gatecamps, pvp arena, a SKILL QUEUER system, should devs be allowed to interact active in the game. the nerf of nanoships how. etc."(yer yer just putting something out i have seen some pretty heavy debates on) such things that have come up time and time again let us vote and publish the result, and then state if enough voted for X for ccp to care and try to do something about it..
that is voting..
voting to have some asskissers sitting with them and saying "well i think the 0.0 alliances should have a I WIN BOTTOM against any not major 0.0 alliance" is just plain stupid and have no positive effect for those 81% players that is not living in a major 0.0 alliance (which will be the ones that get in this "group" of "elected" people
I declare war on stupidity |
