gotcha, however I would still disagree with you. A persons play style has no relevance on whether they would make a good CSM.
it does not.
However Erotica1 use lie in his "double ISK" game. Why should anybody trust him after that?
That's the question
Null people are like a kid who broke his own toy and is jealous about another kid that still has a new, shiny toy. In the kid's mind, the only way to happiness is to grab that shiny toy and break it so both kids are in equal misery.

I can see what your driving at and yeah looking back at previous candidates who have been elected I would have to agree with that |

If I understand correctly I think what he is saying (and I apologise if this is wrong) is that people will simply vote for somebody just because they have the same play style and disregard everything else.
So for example say some who stood is a scammer they would vote for that person simply because they also scam regardless if it is quite clear that that person has no business being a CSM.

Or, because things didn't go as planned so after trying to shape shift the conversation and threatening to report people who went off topic we now see that your thread did truly deliver in derailing a campaign that should have never started.

No ... people who DON'T think and are CLEARLY just followers.
It is moot anyway ... they removed themselves from the running.
And to clarify, I would support people into chairs that match their playstyle, as long as CCP balanced
the CSM to represent ALL of the players, not just nullsec/lowsec -bears.

Ah, this thread was amazing. After being called a troll, an alt of Heavy Rayne, an alt of someone Erotica 1 had once scammed, he turned around and asked me to stop fighting against him and to throw my support behind him.
Thanks

To: Xavier Higdon,
I sincerely appreciate your questions and rebuttals. Later today or tomorrow I plan to post a rather lengthy post. Originally I was going to make it a separate thread, but I may just post here.Can you evemail me some of your questions and concerns to help me cover as much ground as possible?One thing I have not really mentioned here, but will, is that I love trading. I have a number of ideas to enhance the game for those interested in industry and markets. I am terrible at pvp, and trust me, I am the last person who wants to remove pvp.thanks-Erop.s. I'd like to build up a lot of support in the mining and industry community, and no not for some scam or bs. I have reached out to my friend, the wis, but havent discussed much in detail with him. perhaps you could contact him and together help me shape this campaign to be truly inclusive?
Now can anyone tell me who "the wis" is?

Wow this thread really delivers! Personally i've been pretty anti-Erotica, mostly due to his scams. But i felt the bonus room was really stepping over the line. Taking someones isk and assets is one thing, and though i might personally think that is the sort of thing a bad person might do, i also acknowledge that it is part of the game. Making a room that also strips players of their skillpoints, the very thing they've paid cash for, on the false hopes of wealth, is questionable indeed. But making them sing, and collecting pictures of them, all for the amusement of those involved? We're talking way over the line. Been plenty of examples of that happening in the real-world, and having real-world consequences. I see no difference here, and honestly hope that someone looks further into just how far this has gone, and just how many have been effected by Erotica's scam room.
Mynnna, you have my vote for the CSM, for this alone. Talk about putting the smack-down!

I suppose the biggest let down is that the persona, the rabble-rousing, the savior of hisec nonesense, all of it was just a bid to impress the goons and get their votes for CSM. If I was an Erotica1 supporter right now (or a new-order financial backer), I'd feel a little bit betrayed.

..... it is pretty obvious that the New Order is little more then a rather easy manipulation of dumb and lazy pilots who have no concerns for the grift as long as the money keeps coming in to replace their Catalysts.
James/Erotica get mad charisma props and will keep us entertained as long as there are dumb and lazy pilots who enjoy being manipulated.
I guess you need dumb and lazy miners too but there will never be a shortage of them.
