We know that the game's population is split something like 70% hisec, 10% low sec, 20% null-sec. Something like that, the exact figures are not important. Yet it seems that the CSM is composed entirely out of representatives of big alliances in null-sec. So the CSM which is the voice all of Eve's population represents only 20% of the game's population...
I know there have been talks with CSM of how to bring more people into nullsec? But why are people that already live in nullsec trying to find ways to bring hi-sec into null-sec? Seems kind of backwards to me. I'd rather people like myself, that live in hi-sec, had more influence in finding ways to make null-sec more attractive to us.
That's just 2 thoughts I wanted to bring up... not sure if this has been discussed or not before. |

So, from your responses it seems the problem stems from the fact that even though Hi-sec may have the majority of players, only very few of them ever vote. Why do you think this might be? What steps can be done (both by CCP and the players) to increase voter turnout?
Certainly you can't expect a new player that's been playing for a month or less to even understand what the CSM is doing. Do we need to worry about that? Do we care about what new players think? |

Players less than a month old can't vote, can they?
I'm not sure. What do you consider a cut-off point for new players? How long does an average player play before something finally *clicks* and they just start "getting" Eve and are thus now hooked forever and are no longer a newbie? 2 months? 6 months?
Regardless of that, I'm still interested to know if you guys think that newer player opinions should matter in the CSM. |

If you had read the thread, you'd see that I am looking for two things: 1. Is this an issue that needs to be addressed? 2. How can this issue be addressed? |

Then here's another though I want to bring up: What if some players really are voting by not voting? What if the lack of votes is a sign that many players either don't care about the CSM, or don't put much faith in it, thinking it to be too ineffective or a PR farce that was that set up by CCP as damage control after that incident.
What if, by not voting, some players are saying (directly or indirectly) that they put their full trust in the developers of their favourite game? |

Are there many more with such consent? |
