Who seriously care... don't get me wrong, i like the idea of the csm it's a cool eve gimmick, but it's really nothing more.
They are no say in the development of eve, if they did null would be in a lot better shape, it's nothing more then PR. I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous. |

quite.
but you can't disagree on the fact that no matter what you think of goons, they are the home to some of the brightest and most innovative players in eve. i often think that's why they're the victim of such hate.
i like the goons, personally. still, i wouldn't trust them. Want miners to move from high sec to null sec? Then give them a reason to join player corps, and stop null sec grav sites being worth less isk/hour than high sec asteroid belts. Really isn't difficult. |

But I wouldn't trust him with a dollar of mine. We all thought CSM 6 was a war crime with it's massive Null Presence CSM7 topped it by selling out our Council to CCP, don't let it happen again. Vote or next time Incarna is your fault. Stupid Signature Broke

sounds about right, to be honest. Want miners to move from high sec to null sec? Then give them a reason to join player corps, and stop null sec grav sites being worth less isk/hour than high sec asteroid belts. Really isn't difficult. |

If I had run under a STV system for CSM7, my 10,058 votes would have translated into the top spot for me, as well as #2, 3 and 4 spots for whoever was under my ticket. I advocated against a STV system as I believe it would allow nullsec to completely rig the election with maximal efficiency; Two Step likewise warned against this. CSM8 will be a test of my Cassandra-like warnings. Organization wins elections. Nullsec blocs are the most organized entities in Eve, because the disorganized ones get destroyed. STV gives voters a roster of candidates to rank; your average unaligned voter in hisec will put in maybe one or two candidate names. Your average nullsec voter, motivated by his bloc and their incentives/whipping methods, will fill out the entire ballot based on a voting guide provided to him by his leadership.
IMHO I think it'll be worse for HI SEC representation then mittens predicted unless HI SECers actually go out & vote ( ha ) they will either have 1 or zero reps ( depending on if you think James 315 as being a HI SEC candidate which I don't , if so then 2 or 1 ) Only time will tell if my ( mittiani, and Two Steps ) predictions about CSM becomming a 'NULL only thing' which I often hear it described as in fleets but I think it can be constructively disscussed here in GD...
There don't seem to be many "hi-sec" reps running in any case. Given that the deadline for submitting apps to CCP has passed, all the candidates must now have declared. Which of those who have declared would you consider a "hi sec" rep? Vote for Malcanis for CSM8 https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=192717&find=unread |

i don't understand why the people running for CSM are pigeon holed like that. i appreciate each player will have their area of expertise with regards to which security space they live in, be it null, empire, or wormhole space etc but surely it would be more logical for people to vote for candidates who simply understand game mechanics and have some idea of what balance is, rather than trying to push a CSM full of people who will just bias one section of eve over another?

CCP should roll a D12 followed by a D10 divided by 2 ... Then a D8. That should give them the month, week and day of the election. A day before-hand they post it on the forums and we all go and vote for somebody.
Maybe that will save us from the self-same threads year after year after year after year after year.
Which, you know, is amusing as we get to see the same rot every time. But I'd much rather read about the people who forgot to train racial Cruisers to 4, yeah? Malcanis for CSM7 - here Malcanis on High-sec - here |

that's fine you only need racial cruisers to 3. Want miners to move from high sec to null sec? Then give them a reason to join player corps, and stop null sec grav sites being worth less isk/hour than high sec asteroid belts. Really isn't difficult. |

It makes a hell of a lot more sense than trying to beat it by quitting. You know, like you're trying to.

Why even bother wwith this farce CSM was and always will be a PR tool for CCP aslong less than 20 % of elegible voters vote this will not change
CCP does what ever the pleases and the CSM will never have any influence in the descision making , not aslong as i said less than 20% of the voters even bother to vote I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it...... Voltaire |

So what you're advising is: is don't vote and keep it a farce instead of voting and making it less of one?

My thinking:
Mittens wants to ruin the game: - why would someone that puts in an epic amount of energy in a game want it destroyed again? They don't. Their intentions are to make it better (even if that means making it worse for the average player).
Voting changes: - STV solves what issue again? Seems more like It intensifies the original issue by orders of magnitude if this declaration is correct. Isn't their a better way?
CSM is useless / doesn't represent me: - CSM might be toothless but at least they do exist and do pass messages from the collective back. Keep them!
How much advertising has CCP done on the new voting system? I only follow FBI feeds and news at login. But I do follow those two closely when possible --- GÇ£If you think this Universe is bad, you should see some of the others.GÇ¥ GÇò Philip K. **** |

I've seen that reasoning before and it doesn't make sense. Change better to different and I agree:
their intentions are to make it different (even if that means making it worse for the average player).
No doubt there are plenty running for the CSM who are willing to support ideas which only help their part of EVE while crapping on everyone else. They will carry a banner calling it 'a change to make EVE better'... yeah, and the world is flat!! |

Just ABOLISH the CSM.
Not really a solution that many people want, but it's the only solution that treats everyone equally -- which is where a sizeable amount of the bitching is rooted, in the "issue" of Equality.
Personally, I enjoy the scandal and the dramarama -- but all good things must come to an end.
