I would like to announce my candidacy for CSM.
My main platform is about looking for the interests of faction war players, no matter which side they are on. So far CSM, in regards to faction war, has been dominated by people motivated more by their personal agendas than game play interests.
I dont promise to pull down the Dyspro moon from the heaven and hand it to you (symbolically speaking) because I dont believe that is even possible as member of CSM. I also dont claim to have knowledge of 0.0 POS warfare or SOV.
However, what I do know is the faction warfare mechanisms inside out, both high-sec and low-sec and all the issues which lower FW enjoyment. I feel that if CCP is to make corrections to many of the currently flawed mechanisms, I am qualified enough to consult on it.
I am also long-term resident of low-sec space and feel that I can also speak on their behalf, whether they are -10.0 or 5.0
This is what I offer, it may not sound much but it's something I believe I can deliver instead of making unrealistic promises such as "I will remove CONCORD".

I have no doubt that behind the smack in local you are a good guy Damar (who doesn't enjoy a bit of good smack talk?).
However I find it hard to believe that you could be the voice of all four militias.
That said, perhaps you could outline your views on the current imbalance between the minmatar/caldari vs Galente/Amarr Plex NPCs.

Why? Do you think maybe Ankh was? Does one have to go through at least three different militias to qualify like Ankh did? Backstab your former fleeetmates to demonstrate knowledge and experience in all fronts? Do you honestly think that Damar wants to get elected to persue some kind of personal or pro Caldari agenda?
Or do you just question his capability and knowledge and not his motives? Because I am getting a bit of both from your post.

First, I didn't bring up Ankh and I dont really understand why you did? Unless you think that Damar should stand on a 'I'm not Ankh' platform? I don't think that's what hes doing, but perhaps that's why you will vote for him?
Second, and to the point, all i know about Damar comes from the persona he projects in local and his posting on these forums. Neither of these things lead me to believe that he is able or perhaps willing to act in the best interests of militias other then his own.
I do however look forward to hearing more from him but it will take more then what hes written in the OP to persuade me.

As far as I understand, current issue with many people is that offensive Gallente/Amarr plexes can be speedtanked. This applies to medium and major plexes (if someone has to speed tank a minor plex, he is doing something badly wrong).
It is indeed possible to take a major Amarr/Gallante plex with properly fitted t1 frigate* while Matar/Caldari requires specially fitted tank (such as Enyo/Ishkur) or multiple warp outs which i've seen Amarrian inties do.
Now, the best solution in my opinion for a fix would be to simply give missiles to all plexes, either to npcs (note that many gallente npc ships already shoot defender rockets) or having the initial spawn in plexes to be mixture of missile and gun batteries (perhaps even a webifier).
This would also eliminate initial ewar from plexes if ships carrying it would only spawn after timer is started and perhaps urge more people to attack them. Defender would still receive dps bonus from them of course.
And yes, killing npcs should be required in all cases for plex to capture which would immediately help in regards to self-running timers.

* AB Punisher worked for me in Gallente majors while I hear Vigil works well enough for Amarr but I lack personal experience in conquering Amarr plexes so this is hearsay.

Damar has had the ear of the Amarr Militia for some time just as we have had his.
He has proven to have a thorough understanding of what is wrong with the current FW system on all sides of the war.
As he shares the burning passion that I myself have for this corner of the universe and since I am certain that he can be unbiased when called for he has my vote.

Sorry. Having had much interaction with Damar, his numerous alts and his best friends the Pervs , this statement is quite frankly laughable in its blatent in sincerity.
His repeated emotional outbursts in local, his vociferous ,real life hatred of your opponents in Faction War is out in the open is and quite well known. by even causal observers.
He is motivated by personal dislike of Ank, and a desire for revenge against the people he dislikes , of which there are many.
There is no possible way he could put his emotions aside to deal with Faction Warfare as a whole without making sure the interests of his self identified faction was paramount.
I strongly suggest that this canidate is not in the best interests of Faction warfare as a whole or Eve for that matter.

Val do you also think that Damar is doing this for himself? Do you think that whatever proposals for FW changes go to CCP will be his own? Are you so set in your mind that you would prefer no FW participant in CSM instead? You have exchanged noumerous blows and words with Damar Rocarion - Brigadier General in game, maybe you should try shaking hands with the man behind the General. Because he is the one to represent us, not his ingame persona.
I have flown with Damar on many occasions and although I can not claim to know him very well, I can attest to one thing: he is an honourable person. And you just can not put a price to that especially in politics which is what this is all about. I would vote someone just for that.

The problems people have clearly and repeatly expressed which he has dismised are that Caldari NPC's are overpowered with ECM/missile spam and that this leads to less PvP as people dont want to be perma jammed while fighting.
But this does applies to both Caldari and Gallente plexes. Whoever has the aggro will be either ECM'ed (randomly) or damped (always works) and indeed be somewhat unable to do anything. Both of these can be bypassed in a way with fof missiles or drones or the plex can be captured anyway with specially fitted ship.
If you do solo plexing, of course the ewar in either races plex will gimp your perfomance and if you have npc aggro solo, I doubt anyone would start 1 vs 1 fight in such situation. Lets not forget that Caldari did conquer all systems and had to deal with NPCs and someone always had to be the fall guy for npc aggro and damps. (but of course we killed the rats so eventually everyone was free of Ewar).
Above of course speaks about Caldari/Gallente plexes. I cannot comment on Amarr offensive plexes as i've not captured any.
It is perhaps true that Caldari npcs are better than some but npcs are nonetheless important factor of faction war so removing all of them would probably be disservice (as it helps new people in pvp and gives outgunned defender some help). I do agree that some tweaks are likely in order for Amarr and Gallente npcs to put them more on par with Matar and Caldari.

I doubt you'd want to try this on the Live Server, but I do have a suggestion for you if you have access to SISI.
Get an alt into the Gallente Militia on SISI and try running plexes for the Gallente Militia on there where it won't affect whats happening on Tranquility. You've got a lot of experience with how the Plexes work from the Caldari Point of View, see whether the same tactics and fittings tailored for Caldari Rats allow you to run those plexes with the same degree of dificulty.
For example, was it possible to Run Gallente Medium Plexes (and higher) Solo by Speed Tanking in a Rat Specific Hardened T1 Frigate? If so, would the same frigate be able to do the same in a Caldari Plex when the hardeners are switched out to focus on Caldari Rats instead or would you need a much more specialised Ship to do the same task? To what degree does the NPC E-War hamper your ability to operate within those plexes when they're also defended by Enemy Plexers?
The Problem is, until you do this from an unbiased perspective and publish your findings, people are going to believe that your Candidacy will be biased towards making FW Better for the Caldari alone even if that isn't your intention.
For myself, I'm keeping an open mind on this and have not decided whether or not to support you in the Election Yet.

Yes. He is personaly invested in his faction 'winning'.
His other motivation stated by his most ardent friends , The Space Pervs who say in public it's " to get revenge for people who voted for Ankh"
His only goal appears to be to keep the current FW plexing system as it currently is, because his faction currently dominates that system.
He doesnt want to change anything except make other npc rats (Gallente/Amarr) more difficult.
What about changes in the whole plexing system? The only thing I can see from other forums is a notion that increasing the amount of time on plexs and decreasing the amount of plexs will somehow lead to more PvP. Does Damar endorse this idea still? I personaly couldnt think of a worse one if I tried.
I have seen proposals that offensive must kill the spawns to cap plexs......but nothing about a t1 frig 'defending' a major plex. That can't be changed becasue then how would a certain faction defend with their alts?  etc, etc.
So bottom line, I don't agree with the only proposals he has put forward. They seem self serving to his own interests .
It would take a lot for me to be convinced that his 'in game personae' isn't his real face.
So I stand by my earlier call that Damar is not the person best suited to represent FW to CCP. While he does understan dcurrent mechanics, he just wants them "fixed" not overhauled.
His ideas are out of synch with the majority of FW players who don't care for the current plex/system occupancy system and he has not demonstrated any impartiality in game or on these forums.

bugs in plexs should of course be fixed. But proposing that offensive ships must kill spawn for that bug only raises the question about 'defensive' plexers causing this any ideas on that?..... the whole sentence just demonstrates lack of impartiality.

EVE is quite complex game and you are talking about details when you should look at big picture.
NPC is not a problem, it really does not matter what it does if you have reason to kill those and capture that plex, you will do it.
We all want more pvp in plexes, but it seems that those who whine about npc does not want to capture those plexes. They just want easy kills. FW should be capturing systems not just easy kills. It has to have bigger goals too.
Caldari npc may need some balancing but not much. Val itself has shown that those can be captured by solo. He can kill enymy in those too, sometimes it goes well somethimes not.

I have actually tried tanking Caldari plexes with an alt of mine in TQ. And usually end result has not been very succesful. Interceptor certainly could not speed tank close enough without having to warp out repeatedly (neither could Vigil).
I've not tried tanking one in t1 punisher, perhaps only t1 frigate which might be able to pull it off. My alt did kill one to medium plex which tanked it quite well but I reckon it wont do it forever unless your fit is completely aimed at tanking the said npcs in which case it's quite useless in pvp.
However, what BM says and what Battlestar Crusader says in other thread raise a good point. People would need more incentive to go to plexes and then discussion about solo capture would probably no longer be necessary. The question is of course how it can be done?

You're a scumbag, griefer and serious exploiter that abuses the complex timer exploits with a bunch of alts, so noone in their right mind and any interest in FW should consider voting for you.
You should be banned instead. Which I'm sure which is exactly what will happen when Internal Affairs will look through your accounts as part of your application, by the way.

Tbh having you support your friend Damar should be good enough for most people to not support him . So keep on whining about other people whining.
But you say it should be about capturing systems, and bigger goals to... at the same time you say current plex system is fine, npcs are fine , everything is fine with FW.... so what are you thinking that Damar will do?
Stop changes to NPC's? Halt any changes to plex syatems and sytem capture? So many people dont share your view of FW.. and they should just change their minds? :)
And finaly a question for the Canidate himself.
What is your vision for FW? What changes would you like to see for th e future that you will push for? Do you share your great friend Bad Messengers views that all is fine? If people would just change their attitude it would be great?
Wholesale overhaul of plex system that most people dont like? Or a few tweaks here and there?
HOw about an outline of a real platform instead of I know current FW mechanics the best of all ?

Constant calling of us as exploiters with out proof while you plex with high caldari standings so NPC agro wont work on you?
Lets see what we got while YOU were on CSM:
1. Even bugged plexes, nothing done here only worse.
2. FW lp rewards + increased mission income.
3. Incoming nerf to obviously easy lp/isk farming machine that should not have been there in the first place.
PS.So uh nice ideas. Too bad CCP seems to thin other way around and not many your ideas has been noted.

HOw about Fw missions what are your thoughts on those? Success after all you say you made billions farming them, should they be changed now?
The current mechanism is flawed. I believe Ankh was talking about need for FW rewards and this is what we got. PERVS and some others said that system was broken the moment it was annnounced yet it came along anyway. I really wonder how come people required weeks to understand how to farm them.
We did the missions before the changes anyway, mostly to have an objective for roaming gang. Now there really is no need. We were given the key to bank vault so should we not use it?
The mechanism should not allow continuous declining of missions. This makes it possible to essentially have an assembly line for LP like Caldari have and I reckon Gallente have as well in Nennamaila area.
As said in other thread, make declining not possible (except the one in 4h) but if mission fails, dont give standing hit. This would reduce the functionality of "assembly line". It might also bring more roaming FW missioner gangs (like we had) to low-sec instead of current soloing/alt tanker setups which rarely pvp.

I smell bull**** as we don't even HAVE a public channel! Communication with the majority players goes through E(ve)mail or private convos.
And we don't discuss individual corps internally. Erik didn't even know PERVS by name, until the week before Fanfest, when we discovered the complex timer exploit and the people involved.
TAKE CARE is there to make EVE better for all players, no matter what side they are on, not to pursue a petty vengeance agenda. Damar's sole purpose on the CSM is because he has beef with me, and that's exactly why I don't believe he will be a good CSM that represents all factions, not to mention all playstyles in EVE.
Damar just wants to keep everything in FW as it is, as evidenced by the earlier thread in warfare and tactics, which is exactly why he has beef with me and TAKE CARE, because we raised issues such as rebalancing the FW NPCs and fixing broken plex mechanics, which he doesn't want to happen.

Could you perhaps create a seperate thread for all the issues you have with me and PERVS, along with all the proof you have about said exploits. It would be nice to keep this thread somewhat on topic and relevant without getting all personal.

Yes, that must be why the QA department and game design didn't know about it until I reproduced it in their test environment in front of their eyes. It may have been reported as a glitch yes, we did that many times too, but not with any reproduction steps.

It'd be nice for the people that consider voting for you to actually know your personality. I have always been open about who I am and what my goals are on the CSM, so you should be doing the same.
First, don't turn it the other way around. I never had any issues with you or PERVS. It was you that harrassed, slandered and stalked me personally and with your alts, whenever I was logged in. It was you that applied for this CSM just to annoy me further, and to secure your own interests. Your entire business here is a personal vendetta, because you are totally obsessed with griefing me. So don't play innocent here and ask me to please bugger off, when your entire purpose here is to provoke me, starting with that slander that alt made at the top of this thread.
A lot of the time, when you speak in militia channel, it's ANKH DID THIS!!! WHAAH!. A lot of the time when you post on the forum, it's ANKH SAID THIS!!! WHAAH!. You're even using some alts in Gallente Militia to spam ANKH SHOULD SHUT UP, WHAAH! every time I say something. Every time I'm flying around with a few people and you show up in local, you can't help yourself ranting at them how ANKH IS EVIL!!! WHAAH!, sometimes these tantrum sessions last for over half an hour.
All of this is just because I was succesful and happened to be on the opposing faction, and because I wanted to make some hard-needed improvements to FW while on the CSM, which you considered a threat to your personal playstyle. Remember when I was in the Caldari Militia? Then you suddenly turned around like a leaf, being nice and helpful. Just because I had another faction icon next to my character. All of this is why I don't believe you will represent all FW players if you get on the CSM. Just the ones that are on your personal bandwagon.
You shouldn't be pretending to run on a FW platform. You should run on a "I hate Ankh and will secure my FW interests" platform.

This is a platform I can believe in.

Yes, you two are very much alike. Treat the CSM as a joke and backstab your voters, to further your own selfish agendas. Luckily your 'support', like Bad Messengers', will only show the rest of the players exactly what type of person they're dealing with.

Ack ack (that is the sound of me laughing like the Penguin from Batman Returns FYI).
This is as opposed to you treating the CSM like an extended job interview and forcing your personal ideals and beliefs on the community and Devs while trying to promote irrelevant and dangerous issues.
PS I was trolling. I would no sooner vote for this imbecile than I would allow an American Rendition Technician to remove my toenails.

You replied to one question.
Do you have any details to your platform? Please let us know. EDIT: And now ofc since you and your friends have made your isk lets nerf it :)
BTW any thoughts on high sec POS mechanics as they relate to FW? Any changes needed there you think?

For the full list of these irrelevant and dangerous issues, please consult my wiki entry. You'll find subversive things like the skill queue, scary live events, unnecessary drone improvements, irrelevant 0.0 reviews, and a whole range of FW issues which noone gives a .... about. Not to mention a whole lot of community feedback issues, which of course was my secrit plan to brainwash them with my personal ideals.
Yeah, right.

Yes, that must be why the QA department and game design didn't know about it until I reproduced it in their test environment in front of their eyes. It may have been reported as a glitch yes, we did that many times too, but not with any reproduction steps.
You must have shown them the bug before early July where I reported it with 5 easy reproduction steps .. bug update even states that it was fixed internally.
But some GMs don't even know what I am talking about when I report abusers so don't see why Q&A should be any different to be honest.
And after that lobying you did last year to get medals and rewards for plexing/VP you really shouldn't play the "personal interest" card.
My dealings with Damar have always been fair and reasonable. Perhaps he behaves differently in his "natural habitat". I can only judge by what I know first hand, far too much slander and bad blood to do otherwise.
Shameless Plug: I would like to take this opportunity to encourage everyone to support my proposed VP freeze. Perhaps CCP will listen if we show that we would rather have FW dead than broken.

Which I didn't do as CSM, and didn't use CSM channels for. I just responded to the EVE mails that CCP sent to all the top FW players, any of player could have done that. I even informed CCPs CSM team of what I was doing, exactly to avoid such conflicts of interest.
My CSM work has been entirely honorable and only on behalf of the EVE community. Personal interest never came into it, and I don't like these accusations you are making after everything I have done for you.

According to Hilmar, EVE is not a game but an emergent nation.
And it's not narcissism. It's mainly debunking all kinds of false accusations and slander.
Some people here claim that I was driven by self-interest and only proposed things that were on my hidden agenda. This is simply false, as proven by my issue list, which proves I did serve the interests of the EVE community as a whole.
Then there are those that say I did it for the trip to Iceland. Yes, that must be why I flew back a day early so I wouldn't come into conflict with my study, and didn't participate in the 'recreation' during the evenings so I could be on time and sober during the meetings the next day.
Next comes that accusation that I only favor the Gallente side of FW. Right, that must be why I started playing for the Amarr faction, my first real player corp was the Ammatar Free Corps, and I often hang out in Providence when I'm not in FW. I actively participated in all four militias either with my main or my PVP char (GASP ANKH HAS A PVP CHAR) to evaluate the situation on each side. In fact the only time TAKE CARE did something exclusively for one faction, was when Erik asked CCP for a medal for CALDARI veterans which include corps like the 22nd.
Last there is this claim that I used CSM powers to get myself FW medals. Not true, I just rallied some other disgruntled plexers after this stupid plexing contest CCP held which turned out to have no meaningful reward, and used the normal ingame communication channels. You can see my issue CSM list above here, there is no "Give Ankh a medal!" issue in there, right?

Yeah, it's a computer game. I hear nothing but whining from you on most of your FW posts, before you got elected to your benevolent position. We will just have to disagree that your a spammy twit or someone who actually cares about the balancing of mechanics of FW. Mob consensus points to the first....

Damar you had to see this coming, you've made your self known to have a very touchy temper that is remarkably similar to my 1yr old niece when she isn't getting held.
If you don't get your way, you rage. If someone kicks you out of a defensive plex, you rage. We are talking about the csm here people. Do we really want a self driven, tempered person to be on the CSM.
Yes I am Gallente, I'm sure I've said enough to you in local for you to know I don't like you and your whining...Anybody in the world from any side will argue "biased!!!", this whole thread screams it, but the fact remains is you can argue as much as you want about plexing mechanics you want, But until you direct your attention to the pvp aspect of faction warfare, the rewards of pvp, and the plexing/pvp interaction you will do nothing for faction warfare.
You could go on about how what rats do what, and how they are unbalanced, and how ships can tank or not tank plexes, but tbh a lot of people I've spoken to (yes mainly gallente) don't give a rats *** (no pun intended)...
tbh I think from a pvp standpoint that if the whole plex system was redone (not system control, because the Caldari earned their captures fair and square...or so I think) to fit for better pvp interaction. Make control more easily lose-able (don't flame me I'm not done yet)...making plexes more dire, more rewarding to the player as far as experience, you will see a lot more people from both sides (all sides) get more involved, see the map become more dynamic (like alliances...cuz I've been there...alliance space changes a lot, making it more dire and rewarding)
I'm no expert about plexes and I don't claim to be, but the general consensus is that plexes can get boring to the average player, and they lose their 'zing' after awhile...
this should be about making faction warfare more attractive and dynamic/rewarding (experience wise)....once you do that, the experiences are that much better (even if all I do is defensive plex at least make it more dynamic and critical to the point people want to do them more often)
Lastly....I have even thought about running for CSM myself actually but the truth is...I'm too biased, I talk to much in local, and I'm a die hard pvp'r who cares very little about plexing, but only when the occasion rises...
I'm sorry Damar but I will not be supporting you, keep on plexing tho 0/
PVP FTW!
If I yellow box you, I'm sorry...err...I was just checking my ctrl key... |

All this indicates is, 2 meatheads having some nerdrage are posting before thinking.. then forcing themselves to correct it to save face.. how are you to be CSM if you hit the OMFGNUKETHEM button when someone disagrees with you.
I sense much anger in you.. wait i can see it.. nm.

Damar is perfect for the CSM to represent Faction Warfare. He led the Caldari way for months because he had a goal and set out to see it happen. There were 4 major FW corps plexing continually while Damar liased between them all to get us all working together, it worked brilliantly. He represents many of us in Fac War for the sheer reason that he leads from the front.
He openly talks about the difficulties in the plex mechanic, the exploits possible, the ways in which Fac War is flawed while suggesting possible fixes for all of them. He is selfless about all of this with good intentions to fix the flaws and now has the guts to put himself out there as a candidate for CSM because he is the most qualified for the job, he knows it, we all know it.
Experience talks buckets more than some of the above personal opinions and I hope that you all see that and vote for him in the election. |

+1 for Val Erian is right, Damar definitely does not represent FW as a whole so
-3 accounts of Damar Votes especially as the ideas represented for a campaign are so bad (I know I'm not currently in FW but I did stay in over a year and just might be back at some point anyway)
+1-3 accounts of votes for the anti- Ankh movement, defo not a represantive of any FW I have been or want to be a part of (either).
+1-3 accounts of votes for Larkonis, I'm afraid.
+1 vote for kick BM from PERVS (or omnimute him at least), it's otherwise a decent enough corp and I hate to see my fellow countrymen in such bad (messenger) company

Woo! Thread revival! (Maybe)
First of all, I would like to think that I am rather unbias in all of this. Mainly because I don't care so much, to be honest. EVE is a game. No reason to get all worked up over it. : /
Anyway...I have noticed many of you keep saying that Damar is bias and is running just so he can have his way or whatever.
Have any of you realized, that by not voting for him, you are bias as well? You are looking at him being in Caldari militia, and you automatically assume he will not help the Minmatar or Gallente either. I don't know too much about his actions in local, but once again, it is a game. I troll local from time to time just for LOLs, but it is not who I am.
Damar is talking about a broken system that needs fixing. Not just on the Caldari side, but all sides.
I think some serious looking into FW is in order, because it is a nice idea, but is so broken. Also, Bad Messenger is very right in the fact that plexing does need more incentives, because that is the idea of FW. You are fighting for your chosen race. You want to destroy the other side. So far, Caldari, and namely PERVs as I understand, have been accomplishing that.
Damar has my unbias support. If he was a part of the Minmatar faction and told me he would want to fix a broken system, I would be for him also. I will be spreading his name around. :)

His answers to Dierdra's questionnaire say it all. Almost everything filled out as "I don't care" except him wanting to keep Bombs and bubbles out of lowsec, which are the most important issues in the game for him.

For me it's not a case for not voting for you because you get a bit upset in local sometimes. Or even for the times you have accused me of using exploits ( which anyone who knows me will know a) im not that good b) i dont cheat in computer games). For me the main problem is your inability to see the massive inbalance in the soverignty system between caldari-gallente and more recently the same imbalance allowing you guys to do lev4 fw missions in a stealth bomber (while we must use very well fit bc or hacs). It's fairly simple though, while you guys were capturing systems, anyone who can fly a t1 frig could go and do ANY plex which enables multiple alts to be used after a few days training i imagine and even if alts are not used allows many more people to be capturing more plexes at any one time. Secondly that you think damps are anyway near as effective ewar as ecm is just rediculous. Any pvper knows how much more effective ecm is and when this is used by rats in caldari plexes it's even more effective. I have regulary been jammed (ie unable to do anything) and still being shot by missiles at 150km from npcs, all you have to deal with in gallente plexes is blasters (uber short range) and a slightly slow locking time (oh noes).

Of course he won't, he's a selfish fraud.
Not that I give him any chance of being elected, maybe be becomes some low alternate if he's lucky, though, so he can sit there and be quiet while Z0D fixes the REAL FW problems.

Some comments about Damar Rocarion are unfair - He has killed me many times - I have heard him lose his cool but on other occasions he has been courteous and one one occasion that comes to mind even sympathetic. There are plenty of rude pigs in the Caldari Militia (even the odd one in ours) Damar is not one of them.
I am not going to vote for him because he seems only marginally interested in the complete imbalance between Caldari and Gallente Plexes - Perma Jammed for 2 minutes by rats (happened to me yesterday) - can not be alluded to by his words "NPCs defending plexes need to be adjusted somewhat". Its a gross imbalance and needs too be fixed along with the obscene range on Caldari Battleship rats. Without more precise details of how he thinks the imbalance needs to be addressed I could not vote for him.
Some of his other ideas such as encouraging plexing via reward have merit at the very least they need to be discussed.
Damar you have to specifically adress the imbalances for anyone in the Gallente to support you - you may win a spot without our votes but if you want our respect then deal with issues of balance not just rewards.

Perhaps it would be possible to reduce the number of ECM ships spawning in plexes. However, often times when someone has complained to me personally about being permajammed, is when a gallente has been in the plex and is chased off.
As we know, this triggers full npc spawn. Now, situation is perhaps that a cruiser sits alone in a plex when hostile battlecruiser comes along and looks for easy kill. However, now with full spawn inside, it's pretty likely he will be jammed the moment he enters. And then we get lolmails like Executioner killing an Abaddon.
Of course, sometimes i've had to credit people like Val Erian for essentially saving my life in this way, such as when I killed two pirate battlecruisers with a caracal.
That aside, i'm ready to agree that Caldari npc ECM could be toned down. Amarr/Gallente
npcs need boosting somewhat to remove their current weakness, which is speed tanking t1 frigate capturing an offensive plex. After all, even caldari npcs can be kite tanked and I know gallentes do it.

I would not vote for you because of the lack of experience in PoS warfare and SOV mechanics. While the FW stance is appreciated, it isn't the entire game. A wider scope of experience is something I feel a CSM should strive for.
Good luck in the polls, Damar.

p.s: I'm also still waiting for Ankh to actually prove any of his accusations about bugging timers and flying cloaked/stabbed ships. So far, she has only proved that she herself flew such things
Too bad it has already been proven many times over and everyone can look for the proof themselves.
What Damar, his corpmates, and his alts have done, is use a cloaked ship in combination with warping out / logging off to keep the timer running, while moving on to the next plex. I worked closely with CCP to get this exploit fixed and CCP is aware of the Caldari having used this exploit to their advantage.
There still is another exploit going on which involves running timers without being present. This exploit has been used by the Caldari to capture all Gallente plexes while keeping their own decontested, and is still being used to prevent the Gallente from capturing any systems back. After the timer has run down in its exploited state, the plex itself becomes bugged and will not respawn until downtime. Which is why the Gallente could never find plexes in systems they wished to contest/decontest and why the Caldari won by focussing on after-DT plexes almost exclusively.
Unfortunately, despite Erik Finnegan and my efforts to inform CCP of the situation, they are still not dedicating much time to fixing FW issues, and this exploit is recently also used being on the Minmatar-Amarr front causing a great deal of frustration.
Initially I was against resetting the FW front on the Gallente-Caldari side, but seeing that the Caldari won solely due to exploits, NPC and reward imbalances, I think even FW "expert" Damar would agree that the current situation is unacceptable and has to be reset (after everything gets fixed and those responsible are banned), do you not?

Despite all the foaming about 'personal agenda', the biggest personal agenda I'm seeing here is Ankh's, who clearly hates Damar and is doing everything in his power to derail the campaign train

I am doing what is best for EVE as a whole.
And I'm not the one running for CSM nor the one posting with a bunch of nameless alts.
I don't need to derail his campaign train though, as that is already a wreck and Damar doesn't have a chance in hell to win a seat in the CSM. He has an unlikeable personality and is despised even by the majority of the Caldari Militia due to his obvious personal agenda and constant emo raging.

You are so wrong on so many levels its hard to know where to start. Damar is a great guy and has my complete support.

I wish to thank all who voted for me. I am quite sure I got more votes than some people thought but was not quite enough.
Nonetheless, I will continue bringing up issues which I consider to be wrong in Faction war. With this in mind, Caldari militia has already initiated an operation* which will probably soon get attention in various forums.

You fail and you will always fail.
As for your plan B, probably a lot of alts with a lot of standing in a crossed militia capturing sites unhindered, yes?
Using an army unskilled alts to defend plexes with overpowered NPCs doing all the "PVP" for them, and abusing timer bugs to claim them while you're absent, is more of a problem in my opinion. Like I predicted, you have problems running the rather strong NPCs in Minmatar plexes, which you cannot run with an alt in a T1 frigate like the weak Gallente NPCs, thus you have to use standings to circumvent them. Meanwhile you continue whining about me doing the same with the Caldari NPCs, which are much more of a problem than the Minnies.
CCP is already aware of the issues, Erik and me already made them painfully aware of the problems. You're not needed. If you think differently and do want to bring up a CSM issue, you can bring it up through me or Z0D, who will represent FW in this CSM and has already raised his first FW issue yesterday.

But what if someone doesn't agree with the way you do things?
Also..lets point and laugh at people that didn't get voted in...wait, let's not.

That is fine. But there are several reasons why someone may disagree. And one of the reasons is that the person that disagrees has a personal agenda, and is not interested in making EVE better for all players, but only for his own specific niche group or playstyle.
And that's why I'm glad Damar didn't get elected. Fortunately the voters realized this as well.

You managed to do nothing about these issues and Erik managed to nothing so why would zod do it any better?

Correction: CCP doesn't give a sh!t about Factional Warfare, and we're the only ones providing continuity throughout the CSM to keep the pressure on CCP to do otherwise. That is how we got the FW Lag problems addressed too. I started that issue, Erik finished that issue.

That is why there is always plan B, make them care you were not able to do that so someone have to do it.

There isn't anything you can do which I haven't tried or set in motion already.
Feel free to try though, but remember that it took CCP 4 months to fix the cloaked plexing after apocrypha despite me sending numerous mails and even made phonecalls about it. Despite me reproducing the timer exploit in their office, they still haven't fixed that either. Even if you were to capture all minmatar space through whatever exploit, they're not going to care just as they don't care about the exploits you used to capture all gallente space.
We all know that FW is full of bugs and the game mechanics are so fundamentally flawed that the entire thing should be sent back to the drawing board. CCP wants do dedicate an expansion to fixing it. But the problem is to get them to give it any priority, as there is always more important stuff to squash into an expansion.
The most you're going to get at this point is some band-aid fixes, which will be the NPC balance, and the plex spawning mechanics we brought up. We might even see some exploits fixed. But that doesn't fix the fundamental problems with FW, at all. You know how clueless they can be, just look at the entire FW mission debacle.

I find the na na na da you didn't win rather poor and do not condone it in the slightest. In fact even I find it petty and in bad taste. Damar did nothing wrong in his running for CSM, I did think he was too much of a divisive figure to run for CSM under a FW ticket (abit like myself, I know lots of people hate me.. I cry sometimes when I go to bed) however I wish him luck. (i'm sure he dont need it)
All this exploit crap is just that.. crap. Anyone can do it, its out there everyone knows.. so everyone likely does it.
No other peron running for CSM has a 4 page threadnaught.. so congrats at least you have got people interested.
I WOULD love to know what plan B is... Knowning pervs its going to be a DOOZY!
