That said, it's also a douche move, and should be remembered next year during Election time.

If a significant portion of Hisec coordinated their voting, not only would Hisec get its fair share of delegates, but Mittens would lose his position as chair (assuming he decides to run again).

What Mittens and his goonies are doing is entirely within the bounds of acceptable gameplay in EVE.

Also, if you believe that changes need to be made to the voting system for CSM, you should start a thread in Jita Park and agitate for them now.

Why is it more of a douche move than, for instance, invading someone's space?

Perhaps the statement "ruin the economy of a broken game" may be giving it away?
Maybe?

I for one am glad that this is how our CSM's choose to spend their time!!!



CSMs should be trying to **** on everyone in EVE and ruin the economy of a broken game right? Publically no less. I also like that our CSMs are abusing the macrobot feature in order to temp ban everyone mining in a mac.


Also...

I am impressed with the rest of the CSM's silence on this matter as well! Well done! It is good to see that Goonswarm and Pandemic CSM's have no other interests the then the bettering of EVE Online!




This is 100% your fault CCP.
Fix the voting system.

Baiting CONCORD in such a manner is considered an exploit by CCP.

@ Maelstrom Crew


Do I need to say duh?
Counsel of Stellar Management are meant to be our representatives for the bettering of ALL EVE Online. They should not want to "kill the economy" or "Abuse the macro-report feature" and they sure as hell should not be manipulating the vote via an obvious exploit.


They should be helping CCP

* Stabilize the economy.
* Support any feature that helps remove macros from the game
* Work towards a more fair CSM voting process that cannot be screwed over by the interests of Super-Alliances.




* Eternum wipes the drool from Maelstrom Crew's bottom lip.
* Then dribbles it onto Malcanis' face.

Oh wow


I meann wow

It sounds like you don't understand that "sandbox" means sometimes people do things you don't like.

Not empty quoting this.

Lol, Goonies trying to claim an exploit....Priceless.

Cleaning up your own CONCORD spawn, so other people can make their own attack runs, is actually really easy. Dock at the closest station to the belt you just ganked in, then immediately undock in a newbie ship and don't move - simply drift for 30 seconds with your docking immunity. This will pull CONCORD to you, and since you have your docking immunity sentry guns will not kill you before CONCORD gets there. If multiple people participated in a gank, they should all do this at the same time.

Please make sure to clean up your own CONCORD spawns whenever possible: it makes life easier for everyone else and really isn't very difficult.

CLEARING OTHER PEOPLE'S CONCORD SPAWNS

Sometimes clever pubbies, or lazy goons, will leave a spawn in a belt. You need to get rid of that before you gank, or you'll be instagibbed when you gank (unless you're in a Galtpest).

Concord usually only spawns one fleet per system. Concord, once spawned, will travel from place to place dealing with anything that shoots something they shouldn't. That means you just need to summon CONCORD somewhere else: take a newbieship in an alt and plink something - a GSC, or the staging pos. Just don't do it near faction police or sentry guns, so you don't die before CONCORD gets there.

If two people gank at once, however, there will be two fleets. It appears that the closest spawn is the one that moves: ergo get closer to the spawn you want to move (nearby belt, nearby pos, whatever) than the one you don't, then summon it. If all else fails, use safespots just off-grid. Don't worry about CONCORD being close: they take a flat 6 seconds to warp regardless of distance.

U keep bitching but I don't you see you adding anything constructive one way or the other.


So you think CSM's declaring war are the economy of the very broken game they are elected to help fix is "ok".
And, reporting every ice belt miner arbitrarily is also "good CSM behavior? "


Seriously?




@Ispia Jaydrath

Your stupidity astounds, how does CCP's business model benefit from a failed market?
Do you think that either CCP or the general player base is interested in a collapsed market?

...Thus should the CSM's be?

@Malcanis: and we don't give a turd about you either.
It's not your game...it's CCP's and "ours", and the CSM's represent us.


So... meh.

I thought you said something about not ruining the game, yet you are above advocating ruining the game.

Doesn't seem logically consistent to me, as we all know that stability ruins fun.

One thing we have learned from this.

Removing or limiting high sec ice is a very bad idea.

BTW tengu prices have started to climb.

That's right it is "our game" as in the ENTIRE community, and CCP's game.

We are not playing "Malcanis's vision online" LOL as much as I am sure that you would like that

I absolutely love a dynamic, player-driven, conflict-driven exciting event changing things in the game.
