I have officially declared my candidacy for this year's Council of Stellar Management. I would like to focus on player decline in eve-online and try to come up with ways to fix our community's dwindling numbers. I think that looking back to when eve was in its golden age (50-60k+ players online at high times) would help us work out some of the problem. I know some people just get bored of eve or don't have time to play because of jobs/family/etc, but I feel there are other factors too that have contributed. There have been many balancing/game-changing patches, some good...others not so. I'm a big believer that if it isn't broken, don't fix it. I know these changes are made to improve the gaming experience, but some of us like things to stay the same or similar.
Some of my ideas:
-More profitable pve, creation of more DED sites. -A dock timer on logistics ships, but no suspect flag, except to the war target. -Dock timer on suspect gank'n'scoop haulers. -Cheaper war declarations. -An interdiction nullified ship that can actually do sites above a 4/10. Or a change to the subsystem's slot configuration. -Make mining more profitable...it is the base of our economy. -High sec moons with rarity 8 and 16 moon goo. -More content, the eve gate...reopening maybe? Travel around the sol system?
Drop me an in-game mail anytime. I also have a TS server for those who want to converse about my campaign. Have a wonderful day, capsuleers of New Eden.

I think your analysis is incorrect. I think you may be biased by rumours and fiction about me, I'm an opportunist. I am more interested in bringing in fresh players and bringing back some who left because of game changes/boredom/etc. My campaign is for the new player who wants to experience what I did 8 years ago....a sense of excitement, wonder, and mystery.
I look back at my industrial ventures and am proud. I can PI and extract moon goo with the best of them; I once made hexite. I believe more players should have access to this income source hence the wish for rarity 8 and 16 moon stuff in high sec. It isn't worth much after all, even the reactions. I do realize mining is integral in the eve economy so why not raise the price of veldspar for example.
Missions/low sec and null pve could have some improvements in my opinion hence why I made mention of an interdiction nullified ship that has more than 400dps for pve applications. More DED sites are needed for each faction to keep thing interesting, I mean, once you've done The Maze a couple times, it gets boring. Maybe make 2-3 sites for each level of DED rating per faction faction would be nice.
I like the old war deccing system. I say we go back and analyze the worth of the new one. I want new players to experience the heart pounding excitement that I did for a long time. Finally I'm not the only one who would like logistic mechanics put back the way they were, retribution was a terrible patch...how many players did we lose on that one?
Also, I do enjoy popping ships on the undock, no excuses. I also have no problem roaming or hanging out in my new house in uedama. Talk of walls is silly, like I said, you've been manipulated into believing things that just aren't true.
Thanks for the endorsement fella.

My dear Noragen, I have some answers I hope you will find satisfactory.
1. PVE should be more profitable because basically all prices inflate except pve income. I remember buying a dominix for 32 mill way back when and plexes were 250 mill when I first bought one. Running lvl 4's will make you max 40 mill per hour with loot, salvage and bounties. With the inflation we've experienced, this doesn't cut the mustard. DED sites can be great but it depends on the boss drop completely which is random. Also, rated DED sites are few and far between. I would like to see more spawn. More DED sites would be great too....sleeper or Jovian maybe, plus a variety of new faction ones. Incursions seem fine but there seems to be a closed community that does them. I can't sit popping npc's for hours, I have housework and I drink lots of coffee.
2.The suspect mechanics hit many in the face and many more unsubscribed due to their logistics toons becoming targets for everyone. A person at war prior to retribution would have to plan ahead to neutralize logi or kill it. I conceded with the dock timer because the logi should be made to flee or die. This was the game I knew for 5 years before they changed it with the retribution patch and it worked for me. Interest in the game was higher and everyone had a logi toon....so it was kind of a level playing field imo.
3.Low sec industry seems worth while mostly. There's moon goo(good luck finding a decent moon btw), some decent ore and if you're lucky maybe a 6/10....not industry sorry. You don't have to deal with bubbles like in null and let's be honest, bpc copying can be risky in low sec. PI can be worthwhile but the concentrations on the planets are meh. Plus, a group of bad asses in dreads can come along and vaporize your pocos very quickly.
4.As with several things done in my youth, I regret the facial spikes. I think my avatar looks mean so I'll keep him that way. If voted in as CSM, I will address the issue of facial spikes. I reccomend as many as will fit.
I hope this answered your questions satisfactorily Norry

Thanks for the economics lesson. Did you ever watch that loony toons cartoon on economics, with the 2 mice? I did and from that I understand the basics. The fact remains that inflation of goods hasn't stayed in line with earning of isk. An increase in rated DED sites would benefit many.
Now bumblefck, if you're just here to troll I have no interest.

DED sites are like fun missions with some risk. If you get a bad drop, it's worthless. I remember the Kul zatath monastery site, I made 500 mill one time, then 5 mill on the next one. It's random. More DED sites = more fun and faction stuff. If the prices crash, we'll still have fun sites to do.

Greeting again today my friends. I thought I would talk about margin trading today as it's something I've made billions on when I was a new character and even now to an extent. To those who don't understand margin trading, I can give you a few tips.
1. Have a toon that sits in jita and make sure he is trained to have at least 40-50 open orders on the market. The skills margin trading and accounting help also with taxes and deferred payments.
2. Now here's the tricky part. Do a market survey and find items with decent margins between buy and sell orders. Add these items to your market quick bar to make things easier. It can be difficult finding profitable items, I myself have about 20-30 items that buy and sell quickly.
3. Set up buy orders for those items through the market interface and wait for the items to appear in your inventory. Now here's the trick : buy your items an isk above the lowest bid and sell an isk or 2 below the lowest sell. Now you can start watching your wallet blink like crazy; income each time whether it's a sell or completed buy order.
4. I've only had luck in jita, elsewhere it seems pretty dead...the orders never fill.
I've pretty much done it all in Eve, so if you have any questions, please feel free to mail me anytime. Have a great day.

I haven't read the thread. If people are looking for sympathy votes in the CSM campaign, you'll make a terrible CSM. I have the utmost respect for those with disabilities, physical or psychological, but I don't think this is a place for it.
My CSM campaign focuses on improving the eve experience and bringing in new or old characters. Eve online is great. Hoorah for the game we love.
Mail me with any questions or concerns. Or heck, post em here. Have a wonderful day.

Well, after a night of hard station trading I'm quite tired.
I think a vote for me is a vote for a higher standard of intergrity in the csm community. Most are biased in one way or another, but I believe in impartiality as far as the subjects at hand. It's the voter's who own the right to choose. I've explained my platform to the satisfaction of some and probably the disgust of others. Being quite experienced at most aspects of this game I think I would be a good voice for our community. 8 years of experience with ups and downs like a roller-coaster leave their mark. In this we can make a compromise and find the best solution to bring OUR game back into a golden age that would nerf any other. Let's forget about skins and new mechanics and look at what everyone wants, not what is imposed on us.
Choose wisely I say because this is a critical time to save Eve Online and make it an awe inspiring experience for everyone. lets turn 20 thousand players on average to 50 again!

I think the sensationalized fiction about me is a wonderful way to learn about my role-playing villainous ways. The lead farmer saga was a personal attack on a level unknown in internet gaming. I did nothing to them but yet they made up all this fiction, as well, real life threats were involved. Honestly, they were lucky they didn't have Interpol show up at each of their doors, but I realized it was just a bunch of computer geeks from the UK, and couldn't be bothered. Photo shopped texts and images that will immortalize me, in a way I've learned to accept. At least I've killed over a trillion in isk now and collected some of it, it was about 3 billion that was stolen from me when I lost my wh network.
I'm sorry for the previous post. Some people must bang their head of an imaginary wall I suppose.
Have a great day

So, I thought an interesting topic today would be setting up a reaction of moon minerals in a series of pos's from my recollection and experience. I used internet resources and about a couple dozen moon probes to find my system. I found 2 viable moons for extraction and reaction. It was 2 moons, a platinum moon and a chromium moon. I checked and there was a reaction for hexite, what a fun endeavour I thought. Now I wanted to do this on-the-cheap because I knew the pos's could be vaporized at any time and fuel costs for the pos's were a part of the equation also. At the time...I think it was maybe 2010, the profit after costs was about 900 mill a month which was great for me as plex's were hovering around 300-400 mill, everything was substantially cheaper. I had my fancy new crane and a sense of adventure. I knew this would take a few trips so I bought all the stuff including the old pos fuel elements for about a month. That's a medium pos of your choice, and a small pos for starters. I needed two moon extractors, 1 for each moon, 4 silos, a simple reactor and the hexite reaction blueprint or whatever it is. Ok, so I anchored my pos's, got them running and anchored the moon extractors and linked them to the silos at each moon. The medium pos had just enough powergrid and cpu for my needs as far as the reaction. So my moon goo starts filling up in the silos...what a glorious thing, practically, completely passive isk generation. Now I set the reactor up at the medium pos linked with the last 2 silos; one for the platinum I was collecting at the small pos and the other for the finished product, the hexite. Once I had amassed enough of each material I started her up. It was a beautiful thing, I transported the platinum to the medium pos, put in the hexite reaction bp and it starts printing isk. I had it up for a few months before a large entity at the time asked me "nicely" to go away. I knew my moon harvesting time was over so I bought all hardeners and guns/utility defences and anchored them to both pos's and left with a message that ill go down fighting thanks very much. If not that, at least waste their time a little longer shooting down the pos's. I left the solo moon mining venture ahead of the game...minus 2 pos's. In the end it was a great experience. Trying to find any viable moons is a tough job however in today's eve. That's why I think rarity 8 and 16 moon materials should be offered in high sec. It's a fun process to set up and it's isk made easy. We need prices to go down, Eve is getting too expensive as far as in-game ships/items. This would contribute to helping lower prices which is good for everyone except the fat cats who profit from gouging the players.
Have a great day everyone, I hope this was enlightening to some. It was similar to the lead farmer's saga which follows me like a fictional/virtual ball and chain, but these guys just took their moons and didn't go on a crazy rampage making up slanderous stories and threatening me in real-life. Negatives aside, moon mining is great fun and as your CSM representative I will look into moon materials being offered in high sec for the benefit of newer or older players. I think it would set off a lot of competition and interest too.

My father was a Hungarian immigrant. I was born in Canada. I appreciate my roots and wished my father was still around so I could learn more about the culture. One thing that I did learn is that Hungarians are the best at everything. While I am humble these days, I tend to agree with him.
Considerr a vote for me for CSM. I will represent you, the player, and create a better starting experience as well as try to entice more to come to OUR game.

Good morning capsuleers on this February 9th 2016.
My topic today is ganking. I was convo'd by someone asking me whether I support ganking. I have always had a pod popping toon based in perimeter who ganks autopilot pods. It can be good fun and can really tick someone off. I did this even before implants were displayed on killmails, so you would have to judge it's worth by hate mail you received. On the flip side, I've tried the tornado and hauler gank and scoop technique in Amarr. It can be very profitable and fun. I haven't had that much success but one time a hauler I popped gave me 1.3 billion in loot. I've never taken part in a freighter gank but have watched many. People just need to haul less so you're not such a juicy target. I wouldn't want to say I am a pioneer of ganking, but Code definitely perfected the art.
I know also the sting of being ganked. Why, just this weekend I was writing on the forums and had one of my toons on the uedama gate in sivala. While writing I looked over to see my guardian in structure then pop. At least I got the pod out (mid grade slaves phew). I know there are 2 sides on this but I think ganking has become an integral part of eve and players must take precautions to avoid monetary loss.

It would seem I let my passport expire a while back as I don't like flying anything but spaceships. It's a technicality as I can get it renewed post haste. However, if this puts me out of the running I hope some intelligent people with good ideas will be voted in this year. Let's make the new player game experience better. Let's attract more subscribers. Don't let special interest groups run the game. Good luck candidates and this thread was fun. Remember our game needs some cardio pulmonary resuscitation or it might die.

I'm looking at the bright side as this gives me an early start for next year, if this year's councils ideas ruin the game further, c'est la vie. My job next year will be tougher although if average numbers drop below 10k I will probably find something else to fill my time.
I endorse any council member to use my ideas. They are written here and dated so I would appreciate some mention that they were my ideas.
If I do happen to show up on the ballot, vote for the guy who loves eve and has great ideas. I remember years ago a forum post I wrote on a covert ops mining ship. The t2 venture was built and I got no credit. You're welcome CCP.

Your comments deserve no answer. As far as your bounty on me, I will match it if you ever get one, which you won't. You're a mildly annoying troll. That's all you will ever be in eve. Although your actions make you look more a fanboy. I'm unsubscribing this thread, so continue talking to yourself by all means.
