you're still mad about the nerf because your alliance can't do anything without them.

CSM is a joke, nothing more than a PR disaster for CCP and a way for people with absolutely no social skills or real life to inflate their e-peens and leak NDA material. The maturity level of the people that get on the CSM every year is about the same as 12 year olds.

If CCP was smart they would restructure the whole thing and run their PR like every other company in the industry. Marginalize the CSM even more than it is now, and for god's sake stop spending money on them or disclosing information to them you don't want public. They have done nothing to help deal with the idiots that scream on the forums, actually this last CSM has done nothing other than insult the players and try to start even more **** for CCP to have to clean up, AND they can't seem to keep their mouths shut about NDA material either.

There are much more successful ways to interact with your subscribers and has been proven out by most of the industry at this point. This laughable excuse of representation is nothing more than a bunch of children playing dress up and stroking their e-peens.

And you've shown by your posts you don't know what you're talking about and liked getting mocked on an internet forum.

basically Avon I'm saying you were a member of a group of cheaters so you would not recognize moral or ethical distinctions hth

The irony is that almost all of CCP's current problems stemmed from them employing "industry experts" who wanted to make Eve Online "more like the rest of the industry" not realizing that once you homogenize the offering to that extent you can no longer compete on originality and indy vibes and people start looking too closely at the creaky game engine and slow content provision.

Successful CCP = wierdo icelandic hard core hands on visionary coder CCP.

Crap CCP = wannabe like MT cash store avatar dress up dumb down CCP.

Because you start competing head to head with the big guys like SONY and Blizzard and EA and whoever then a game like Eve suffers greatly from its lack of polish.

Whereas if you are content to do things differently for gamers that like a bit of difference and eccentricity you grow a whole bunch of subscribers.

Strange that isn't it?

If so many supercap pilots hadn't already unsubbed their accounts maybe 120 CCP employees wouldn't be so bothered that winter is coming.

I blame Harm Pit for CCP's woes. I blame Harm Pit for getting those CCP employees fired. If he had been a more active player or had gone to any of the Fanfest and actually shown CCP how to make a better game, we, as the player base wouldn't be in this position today. I blame Harm Pit for making super caps overpowered, and for dragging Faction Warfare down the toilet. I also blame him for not stopping the Goons from attacking us hisec miners. I also blame Harm Pit for me not getting any kills in over a year.

I blame him for everything that is wrong in this world today. Since he started playing EVE Online, the world economy has gone to hell. Famine is rife in Africa again. War is rampant within the Middle East. Children all across the globe are going hungry because he refuses to become a farmer. Harm Pit caused that tsunami in Japan, and the subsiquent nuclear reactor meltdowns, I know he did it, I just know, mkay.

CCP's current situation is CCP's fault, not the CSMs. CCP has openly admitted to their mistakes. Going too far too fast. Classic mistake all new companys make. You blame six people. Really? SIX! Are you daft? If anything, the current CSM has finally gotten CCP to see what is happening. Walking in station? Who gives a **** about that? Oooh, look I can sit on a couch. I can walk to my ship now. Big whoopty doo. I can buy a monocle and some fancy boots. Are you being for real?

Do you know why no one is in nullsec? Cuz the sov mechanics are out of whack. Kind of hard to start a new alliance and take space when the current alliances have something in the neighborhood of 250+ supercarriers and titans. Or should we just leave them as they are?

No my friend, I blame you for all of lifes misfortunes. I blame you for everything that is wrong in the world today. I blame you for not being a shining example of how we as humans need to be. I especially blame you for the colors toape and mauve and why little puppies die at birth. I blame you for the homeless people living in my city. I also want to blame you for the drought that is going on here. I blame you for crop failures around the world and why tires go flat at the most incovienent times.

You may start your name calling now.

I just discovered your problem

(using vile rat's post about the appropriate place for such threads...) I've posted a thread in the Assembly Hall. When will we be getting a formal CSM response to these events.

you're still mad about the nerf because your alliance can't do anything without them.

Bloody hell.

We live in the end-times of Monoclegeddon when the 4 NeX riders of the (aurum-skinned) apocalypse have murdered the good devs in the Icelandic night of the long knives while his ginger majesty Hilmar has offered up the virgin daughters of the content department to the many-tentacled elder gods of microtransaction hell to the flickering pyres of Vampire the Masquerade source books and you are still going on about player alliance rivalries from 4 years ago!

Talk about fiddling while New Eden burns!

Worst rationalization in history for keeping your supers overpowered. It's sad that you can take 120 people losing their jobs and turn it into a supercap whine. Shameful.

Yeah, that's how this thread went down. I'm sure people are totally unable to check if your revisionist version matches the posts.

Goon's should be evicted from the CSM, period. If that's my opinion, I am free to it. If I post with an alt of a 5 year veteran account, i'm free to do it.

The blind irrational rage in this thread makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

It's called the Foreverwar for a reason. I'm just disgusted that Avon is using 120 people losing their jobs right before the holiday to whine about supercaps.

It's horrible.

Vile Rat just confirms how useless and childish the CSM has always been. Yesterday this Goon was white knighting for the CSM claiming as the CSM did WE are at fault for the state of EVE. This USELESS committee should be completely removed because clearly they are out of touch with what people want. How is the Jihad against ice miners going? Nice move CSM Vile Rat!!

I don't know how much money CCP has spent on the CSM, but with the amount of entertainment it has yielded in this thread alone, it was worth every last pennyGǪ

So vote in the damned election. Get your friends to vote. All you need to get a seat on the council is a 1000 votes. I won the bloody chair position with 2600 (or something) and my alliance had 160 members :)

hah, funny. this is all a response to his immaturity on the forums, directed at people who could have been some of the members that elected him yet here you come along, his bro-**** buddy, to defend him and his lack of maturity. I, at least, have a maturity level that is above the scale of a 12 year olds. you really look stupid for defending him, but of course your obligated to

As I relaxed in the aftermath of a time-dilated fight where supercaps didn't rule the day and lag didn't determine the outcome, I browsed a rack of podkills with implants, spun my recently rebalanced hybrid-gunned ship, and typed off a poorly-thought-out ragepost about how the CSM was irrelevant, because I'm literally a big babby who has no idea what he's talking about.

I then went off to enjoy a bunch of new spaceship-related content that CCP produced after they finally acknowledged that focusing on FiS instead of WiS was the right thing to do!

I feel some vague sympathy for Avon, since Goonswarm has kicked him around the galaxy for four+ years without respite. But it's a shame that he's taking his misplaced rage on behalf of BoB and trying to spite the CSM as an institution, merely because he and his lot were torn apart by a gaggle of newbies in rifters.

You could always come after us again, Avon. It's worked out so well for you and yours in the past. Fifth time's a charm?

But do leave the CSM out of it.
