There is a good percentage of scamers and lamers in the game, and they deserve to be represented by at least one scamer and lamer in the Council. It would just be unfair if there wasn't anyone of them in the Council. |

Well, this is an discussion for different topic. But just out of curiosity how do you describe an "My views" and "My own" as clearly we are nothing more then an biological machines, the electro-chemical reactions are well beyond our reach. We dont have any "own ideas" or "own opinions". We just have an idea and an opinion based on reactions which are beyond our ability to control.
Sure for the sake of "sapient" life we like to think that we actually are able to control our thoughts, but it is not like it. Everything is based on one true feeling called fear. Fear controlls everything, your lower processes chose to fight it or accept it, depends mostly on chemicals your body produce.

So the point is they need to know the game well, I'd agree with that. But that does not make scamming for votes an acceptable vehicle to be elected by. I will point out again at this stage that these are my views, I have no idea what CCPs views are about this although it would be interesting to know. Its a political thing. People want to vote for people like them. A farmer is more likely to vote for a retired farmer than a retired software engineer. Its no different than the political ads in Texas of Rick Perry(our governor who tried to run for president) riding a horse working a lasso. He wanted to demonstrate that he too, worked on a ranch like so many Texans did as kids.
Edit: Respect for reformatting as a pointless debate instead of a 'CCP DO THIS NAO' demand as most posts look like on these forums Inappropriate signature removed, CCP Phantom. |

Quite simply, you have the ability to reason therefore you have the ability to workout what you consider to be right. Of course your views will be based upon the data available to you. So it's up to you to collect as much data as possible, which is why I used to question everything. |

Logic is clear. Reason is not.
I could probably discuss your previous point, however my arguments are somewhat flawed. As the reason is there for some, and some may actually find it logically correct, i do not.

Chemicals in your brain have been proven to modify your reasoning, so views are not ever based purely on data and logic/reason.

Are you talking about additional chemicals (drugs) or chemicals produced in the brain (emotions)?
Emotions get in the way of logic/reasoning so do drugs. Also diseases and tiredness can effect logic/reasoning. |

While the years since have dulled most of my academic skills, I can still be concise as hell.

Ok we've established we both agree on the fact that chemicals do effect logic/reasoning.
Your views are still based on the data available to you, although some are based on lack of data (faith) or the fact the data does not exist to dispprove it.
I don't think your views actually alter under a state that is not the norm as they're prominent memories but more your ability to communicate them. |

I have done enough drugs, and known enough people who did ALOT of drugs, to know that your actual views do change based on chemical influences, simply because your base drives get modified.

This is my last comment on this subject as it needs to get back to the title of the thread.
I also experimented with some drugs when I was in my late teens, although I was a bit of a natural analysist at the time, pretty much analysis everything.
Those drugs don't effect your memories or your ideas they just effect your perception whilst you're under their effect. |

Edit: Drug abuse (if done excessively) can alter the brain chemisty, i.e. a person becoming paranoid. But that's not a brain under normal conditions which is what we were talking about.
Depends, i went through more then dozen depersonalizations and several de-realizations, and through many association based methods.
And it can screw the reality pretty hard. Al-beit there is no reality. Well there is but we are unable to comprehend it.

SIr, I would like to point out that you underestimate me if you think I can not scam up 100 votes. 10 Hours/Day scamming, 2-4 assistants for part of that time....
Sasha Azala wrote: Except it does not work that way, because he'll earn the votes from scammers (as you put it) but also he'll get the votes he says he does not want (in effect) the scammed.
No where did I ever say outright or even imply that I dont want those votes. Every vote will count this cycle. I CHERISH the votes I have scammed, almost as much as the 'real' ones. Many people who didn't 'fall for it' asked questions and I answered, and I went on to get their personal votes as well as their corp/alliance mates. A vote is a vote!

Scamming is used ingame and accepted ingame by most people.

Even 100 votes might not seem a lot but if it was a close race for the last CSM position it could make all the difference.
Last year, I beat a better candidate with the votes I scammed. Ripard Teg is a great guy and by rights should have probably won a seat. But the early bird gets the worm

/fake reporter voice on Shocking!
The quote is from local, and I said just what he quoted me as saying. And yet still more people in that same system got scammed out of their vote AFTER I HAD ADMITTED IT WAS A SCAM.
As for targeting the RvB guys, thats simply not true, my scam targets everyone dumb enough to fall for it. I have tremendous respect for RvB and they do something wonderful-they provide instant action (pretty much) and if Eve had an arena combat system, subscriber numbers would double. at least.
Not everyone has three hours to go roaming, looking for a fight, only to get blobbed/hotdropped. World of tanks now has OVER 18 Million (18 MILLION!!!!) players because people want to fight. Combat in Eve offers 3874.82% more options and variables than in WoT, yet is so hard to come by. If the blockheads would work that out-we could get arenas, and CCP could make real money. But they think that combat is not 'fun enough' or 'interesting enough' to support arenas with combat ladders. Not that if they offered it they would lose anything by trying.....
Now, if you Gentlemen and Ladies would excuse me, I need to get back to getting people to vote who otherwise would not be a part of the electoral process. Thank you-and good day. D3 CCP and even the CSM have a lot of hardworking men and women who are very intelligent, working on making New Eden a better place-it is CCP management that I fear the most.
