Do you support the de-risking of HighSec? CCP has effectively removed wardeccing as a mechanic for aggression (since alliance hopping and super-sized inexpensive decshields are now allowed.) Hilmar has expressed a desire to beef up CONCORD.
Since the CSM (with you as Chairman) were presented with the wardec policy change and approved them, I wonder if the sandbox (outside nullsec) means anything to you?
I think you've done a pretty good job this year as CSM chairman, but I wonder why you'd let such an obvious game-changer, with respect to the PvP sandbox, get by you, even if it was focused on protecting carebears in HighSec space.

How he plays is how he's going to represent his position on the CSM. The activities he enjoys in-game are the sorts of activities he's going to push for improvement on.
(I've got no problem with the way he plays. His Ice Interdiction is fine with me, other than that it might push CCP towards making highsec even safer.)

Soundwave has already indicated in the just-released video blog about balancing that the value of anomalies in nullsec will be increased, so CCP is taking our feedback into account.
Instead of increasing the value of anomolies, why not decrease some of the rewards from other regions, such as highsec incursions (which are already grossly imbalanced with respect to risk/reward.) This, in turn, would increase the inherent value of anomolies. There's already more than enough ISK flowing into the system, do we really need more? It's simply causing inflation. CCP should be looking at removing some of the ISK flowing into the system, not increasing the flow.
Was CCP economist one of the people laid off? It would seem so.

I think you've done a pretty good job this year as CSM chairman, but I wonder why you'd let such an obvious game-changer, with respect to the PvP sandbox, get by you, even if it was focused on protecting carebears in HighSec space. Even a blind man can identify your well-known and rather obsessive stalking of Eve University and penchant for freaking out at anything that benefits them. Your question is full of hyperbole and you should feel bad about it; only the largest hisec entities have the intelligence and organization to manage dec-shields. I think dec-shields are dumb; I think the entire corporate war mechanic as it stands is dumb. Hell, I miss the Privateers days where you could wardec hundreds of corporations and not care. When CCP mentioned changing the policy I noted that I didn't like it, but it wasn't worth dealing with the endless petitions the existing system was spawning - since the GMs are usually overloaded anyway. Ideally I'd like to see a completely new war system, but I haven't given it much thought as this is firmly outside the realm of most of my constituents. Hilmar's random tweets don't concern me. As for your fears of 'carebears' and your obsession with Eve-Uni, if I truly felt that they were spawning weakness and not teaching people how to PvP, I'd just wardec them myself. However, around the time of the dec-shield change, I investigated their practices and Kelduum is running a solid shop with lots of PvP training opportunities - and I expect to see him on CSM7, so get your tinfoil badposts ready.
My issues with E-Uni are not the point. If CCP is making highsec safer, that's the problem. And it is a big problem.
When I do make an issue of connecting E-Uni to the highsec issues, that's to give people someone to point to. People get behind issues a lot quicker when there's an obvious scapegoat (look at how many people enjoy scapegoating Goonswarm over pretty much anything.) Considering CCP sees E-Uni has their highsec golden child, attaching E-Uni to the issue is not particularly difficult.
(But in deference to you, I refrained from doing that in my original reply in this thread.)

Nullsec does not live in a bubble (so to speak.) New Eden is a complex ecosystem, where what affects one area of the game has a ripple effect throughout the rest of the game.
Make highsec safer, less risk for more reward, then people will start to migrate to highsec, this in turns lowers the population of nullsec (and w-space and lowsec.) This in turn increases ISK in the system, causing inflation. Etc. Etc. Etc.
You cannot ignore one area of the game thinking it has no downstream effects on the area you're most interested in.
Attempt to have a larger world view, Mittens.

Once he gets re-elected, you can expect him to communicate again in Nov 2012.

As Chairman of the CSM King of Space, you must get many letters from irate pubbie constituents. Can you please publish a blog of the most entertaining complaints you have received? I am particularly interested in reading letters written in-character by Very Serious Roleplayers. Also any letters threatening legal action.
Sincerely,

Where was that keen eye when, over a year ago, someone in Goonchat wrote "Hey, Mittens, you should run for the CSM."
Kidding. You've been a pretty good King of Space.

Why is Goonswarm Federation listed as a FACTION on EVE Gate and not as an alliance?
What is the difference between Goonswarm Federation and GoonSwarm (the Alliance)? (I'd link Goonswarm Federation, but factions don't get their own EVE Gate page, so they are not linkable.)
