hmm... I smell a code alt.
I just went through your eve vote match answers, It seems you think high sec missions have too much reward, odd stance for a high sec carebear.
Your regular pvp area is solo and in high sec.
High sec suicide ganking is "fine as it is" but yet you also say it needs work?
For the question How should CCP balance the development of PVP content vs PVE content, your comment was "mining is boring, ganking needs work"
...but most importantly was your comment on the should high sec feel safe... "High sec is worth fighting for"...now that is a familiar moto.

My previous post was designed to be provocative and accusatory, you are the only candidate with 'High sec care bear'. So thank you for taking the time to answer my concerns. I love this game and I believe in the CSM.
I have voted in the last two CSM's, this will be my third. I joined eve a couple of months before a CSM, despite only playing for almost two years now.
Mr Azariah was not a great highsec rep. Most of the bus mail consists of poor typing, giving ships away to probably alts and trying to get newbro's to join pvp fleets. Most of us where under no illusion that he would make high sec better, but we had hope it wouldn't get worse, and too Mike's credit, It hasn't. However, It is stagnant, and It still feels like the community and CCP don't actually want us in the game that much. I personally believe this is the root cause for the high sec apathy of which you speak.
When I saw your post on the candidate forums I though, hoorah a high sec dude, a beacon to hold back the swelling ocean of "your not playing eve right' voices, of which there are many. You don't need to represent null/sov/low or wh's, the game is dripping with players eager to represent these areas. If your stating you represent the high sec care bear, yes balance is key, but at the end of the day, you need to represent us, the highsec care bears.
I PI, Mine/research/copy/invent/make, and run lvl4's, that can no way be described as having to much reward, the loot is pants, the bounty's, unless doing missions like worlds collide or the extravaganzas are often only 2 - 5 million, and the LP/Isk/standing from the agent (with all relevant social skills at lvl5) is offensively low for the time it takes to complete most of them.
My father always said "only boring people get bored" mining is a excellent time to read or even work, I often have eve running while I work, just sitting in a barge mining, and popping into a WH for a bit of the good stuff is certainly not boring. The mention of moving asteroids/comets is a outstanding idea, or harder rats that come and say hello from time to time.
This year there is a poor choice/representation for high sec, esp with candidates like Annexe and Gorski Car getting better % on the vote match for some of the high sec concerns. Both have clearly stated pve needs more work, high sec should feel safe (to a point, no one sensible wants 100% safety) and ganking should not always profit the ganker. When cold hard killers and scammers take this position it shows clearly that true pvpers are not that interested in high sec or killing noobs there, it's a relatively small group of people with one specific ideal, and nothing we can't or don't already deal with.
So...
I would like to hear your opinions on NPC corps building POS's, https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=247402
Allowing player owned corps with citadels the ability to let NPC corps have access to station amenity's like the market or ship fitting areas.
For those of us in excellent NPC starter corps like CAS, how do you feel about allowing players to leave the starter corp but rejoin should the player corp experience not satisfy their play style, Or be full of arss hats? To not have to join the holding corps? I think it would be interesting to see how many players in player corps rejoin their starter corp, and how many would leave to try out a particular corp as they know if its not right they can just return to the starter corp they were happy in.
And lastly, what do you think about letting dreads/carriers and lvl5 missions into highsec?
Thanks again for your time. |
