Needed steps

1. look at thread
2. dont give a ****
3. walk away

/see no posting..
more people do that better chance it stays burried.

I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but "hybrid rebalancing, supercapital balancing, time dilation" sounds to me like "nothing happend".
For a carebear like me those changes didn't help at all.

But it did not harm you ..

Got some ideas. Push them forward. Make an discussion. Provide some well written document. Consult with CSM*

Profit ???

Its not like CSMs are some unknown force. They are well known. And as far as i know they are "normal" people. So if someone contact them and they have time for rational discussion .. "you know how it works. "

I'm curious. Why do you support this?

Asking because to a point, I do too, but only if the ballot paper had an option for "None of the above" in the cases where I don't find myself agreeing with the policies of any candidate.

Currently the only way to cast a no-confidence vote is either through a spoiled ballot or by not voting.

Good example: I want my lasers to be useful in PvE because there is a lot of NPCs that have high EM/Thermal resists. Amarr ships are the worst in missions. Therefore I want selectable damage types for Amarr lasers.
So people that live in null start trolling/whining that Amarr is fine and their ships are good in fleet and so on. While it doesn't concern PvE.

I believe in compulsory voting because people are inherently lazy, but thats not a good enough reason to avoid your democratic duty.

If only you could train other races' ships!

And really, with lasers you don't have to reload (faction/T2 crystals take forever to burn through so that's not an argument) and pulses with scorch have a hilarious optimal, and it really doesn't make sense that lasers would deal kinetic and explosive damage, now does it?

Good point, thank you for the response. What about the risk of random voting? If somebody is forced to vote when they are not sufficiently motivated / educated / invested in their democracy, would they actually vote for somebody that represents what they believe in or would they vote for the one with the funniest looking avatar?

So let me get this right.

People who dont care about the game enough to vote are angry at people who did care enough to put in the time to become CSM and got voted in by other people who cared about the game enough to vote for them.

This smacks of the silant majority argument.

Most people play the game without wasting their time on forums since 85% of forum people are trolls.
If I was at home at the moment I wouldn't waste my time here too. When I lived in null and had a lot of time at home I didn't pay attention to forum too - it's better to do something fun then reading trolls.
The logic is quite simple.

Yes, it didn't harm me. It was just sad because something new came out and there was nothing for me or any other carebear.

Just like the rest of the game the past 2 years, and at least nullsec was beginning to stagnate hard because of it. So crucible is an attempt to try to at least partially rectify that.

Also, don't tell me nothing came of crucible that you'd care about, there are tons of UI changes and new boats which can be used with a fairly high amount of damage for a fairly low SP cost.


Actually, I'd argue that lasers have a huge bonus in the form of not needing to be reloaded, which is useful both in PVP and PVE (PVE because it means less ammo costs, and you can do missions in deep nullsec without a particular base of operations for longer), which is offset by the fact that you have limited damage types.

Rat somewhere which is vulnerable to EM/Therm, or change the tools which you use?

- T1 laser crystals are useless. T2 or faction ones are the only valid choice for missions.

- I never lost even a bit of my DPS while reloading guns on Vargur or Kronos.

Anyways this arguing won't help improving the game because no one listens and CSMs are busy fixing null.

I am a highsec carebear too and quite enjoy Eve as such.

When I look at the CSM priorities and people it consists of its probably true a vital and big part is absolutely not represented by the CSM. Though I like the new Crucible very much I would also wish for a more PvE focused and laid back expansion in the future that will be more interesting for the non-PvP players out there.

A change in voting mechanics will surely help to give us highsec people a louder voice. So please make it happen.

Make an ingame Voting (maybe at startup like issued) and make it simple and understandable what each players goals are and most importantly what sort of player he considers himself (business tycoon, alliance leader, mission runner, wormhole dweller etc)

The real money now is in highsec incursions.

Highsec bears outnumber null players by 4:1

So what?

Highsec bears outnumber null players by 4:1

If you're still complaining the voting system is skewed in favour of the null players (and the system does NOT use proportional representation) then you're doing it wrong.

During the last elections, most of the people I spoke to in highsec didn't know what they were.

That kind of apathy shouldn't be present on the CSM

Few facts:
- New BCs are useless on missions because they have no drones. Only Talos have them, but it is a blaster boat = useless too.
1st scrambling frig will be your death.

- T1 laser crystals are useless. T2 or faction ones are the only valid choice for missions.

CSM still here ?

Oh... and i see that "goons forum poaster brigade" is forming to deffend their mittens

it really sucks to get kicked around nullsec, doesn't it

Im not living in nullsec.....
Im a highsec carebear
