Ok, some questions:
What actually do you stand for? I've not actually figured out yet what you're going to do in the CSM. All you say is you won't sweep stuff aside. Do you realise that trying to tackle all of the problems all of the time was the major failure of all the CSM's apart from 6?
Why is the current CSM so bad? I mean they actually got things fixed, the got FIS looked at rather than WIS. They got hybrids fixed, they got lag fixed and refocused CCP to look at core game play. Thats good for everyone.
In your video, you come across as odd, possibly like you have aspergers or you're an aspiring database programmer. Do you behave like that all the time? Its creepy.
The project management side of CSM 6 was actually very good, coming from an objective stand point. It actually fits in with CCP's sprints. How would you work with CCPs' existing development structure? (I assume you know what Agile is).
How do you justify having such horrific curtains? (Both you hair cut and the ones mounted in your house).
If you had one cause, and one cause only to champion, that you'd like to see fixed, what would that be? Only one mind and it can't be a broad 'low sec' or 'faction warfare'. It needs to be specific.
Do you realise you may have only got more than 100 votes because it just might be the case that certain elements would like the player base to spread there votes out as much as possible in the second round? How would you stop that in future? |

I didn't miss anything at all. You missed the point. The point is, you need to justify why anyone should vote you and so far there hasn't been any.

I do not feel that accomplishments in eve have any effect on my ability to lead or work with others collaboratively. If you are voting for whoever has the most space cash or rare ships then you are doing it wrong. I agree that one's Eve-related accomplishments should not be the sole measure of a candidate. That's why I also asked if you had any accomplishments in other areas. I do believe that a successful candidate must have some way to highlight their understanding of and dedication to Eve. At the very least, a successful candidate must be able to highlight their dedication to online gaming in general. In fact, can you name one person who has been elected to the CSM who didn't have some in-game accomplishments that made them interesting and important in Eve before being elected? I'm no Eve historian, but all of the candidates I can think of had done something of note in game before running. Yes, even Jade Constantine. So, second chance. What are the personal accomplishments - in Eve or elsewhere - that you believe make you a viable candidate? I have the following degrees Associates: computer graphic design Associates: Network Security /w Administration Bachelors: Psychology (Graduating after this semester) Bachelors: Technical Systems Management (3 classes away) I am 22 and already have more college experience then my peers because I skipped high school and started going to college at 14. I graduated with 2 degrees around 17 years old the same age the most people would just be starting. I have plenty of on the job experience with computers and employee management. I am a student of the Langer school of mindful thought. I approach every situation with a methodical mentality and a willingness to please others though my own deeds and agendas. I have worked PR and CI for Anonymous since as early as 2008 and I have also worked as a youth councilor.
I was right! You do have aspergers and an aspiring computer programmer!
Worse than that, you still live with your parents and haven't got a real job. |

It's not about bragging, I think that says enough about you already.
If you wanted to come across as a humble, genuine people person you have told us your're a packing handler for ups, you live a home with your parents but want to be a computer programmer. Instead we get pretentious bollocks about degrees and child geniuses. |

Why does that matter.
State your Internet spaceships experience or GTFO.
And no, I'm not watching your video, I used all the mind bleach after watching the last one. |

.
Everything you say makes me want to run for CSM, with my main goal of getting a dislike button added to the forum.
Corp emblems on ships is an old idea and may already be in the works, as are ship skins however theres thousand of people who actually fly in space who want there game fixed. |

D00d, you are a pubbie.
You still haven't answered any questions either.
I'm seriously worried you might end up getting accidentally voted in. You've still not realised you don't bring ideas to ccp when you're in the csm; you're actually a Ccp and community go between and a sounding board for ccp.
A vote for you really is wasted.
And shadow has really dropped the ball on entry requirements for new members. |

No you won't, because thats not what the CSM does. How can you run for CSM and completely fail to understand what it does at a fundamental level?
You don't get to pick and choose which features you want to add to EVE. You get to take what the players want and present it to CCP for them to look at; there is even a system in place to tell the CSM what players want most of all.
Your core responsibility in the CSM is to represent the players as a stake holder, not to suggest your own agenda to the CSM.
The whole point of the election is to pick the people who represent us. Think of the players like a Union; we're picking out diplomat.
CCP needs to remove you and anyone else who is treating this as a platform to get what they personally want changed in EVE, because it doesn't work that way. CSM6 understood that, and that is why it worked. |

Without wanting to get into the whole troll-fest that has been going on in this thread and on the facebook posts CCP posted on their page, I have to disagree with you. Honestly, personally I don't care too much about what Xenuria wants to achieve in his campaign. The LGBT thing, well, I am gay. But it's not really something I care too much about, though I see how players might want things to change in that area. ( It would be funny if I could add my boyfriends char so we ditch corp taxes or something XD ) The walking on station thing got be hyped in the beginning, I really wanted to see some awesome dynamics being added in that area, but by now I don't really care about that anymore either. I'm just too focused on classic pvp, away from the captains quarters, away from the new stuff. Just because it wasn't ready when CCP released it :( Ship painting would be nice but also is an eye gimmic; so are the corp logos on stuff. What do all the above things have in common? They all root around the idea of making eve a deeper and more interactive game, letting players merge with their virtual self. That was the whole idea behind Incarna, making the world more "real" by giving players actual faces, actual bodies, so that they could say: "Yes, that is me, this is what I want to do". I'd have to lie if I said EVE didn't play a huge role in my life. My EVE Life is sort of important to me, so are the friends I made in my alliance and the people I already knew before founding our corp. And that is where the "Walking on Stations" feature kicks in: it wants to make this experience deeper, letting players experience their "EVE Life" in a whole different way. You might not be interested in that. 50% of all people playing eve might not be interested in that. 100% might not be, though that would be unlikely. There ARE people that are not doing hardcore "oldschool" pvp and want eve to become something better, something greater. CCP saw that, Xenuria sees that. It's always hard trying to get something new into a game, trust me. I've worked on a Homeworld 2 Mod as a scripter and storywriter for 3 years. But not trying to attempt it, would be wrong. So to get to my first point: don't smacktalk this guy. You might not like his ideas but there obviously are people that do. And as I honestly have to say that I don't care about it anymore as much right now, I'd still be interested to see how new implimentations of the "Avatar Mode" in EVE could influence nullsec pvp that we have right now. Nobody should force you to use features you don't like. I really hope you catch my drift here :P Don't give me the "it's not his job", "that's not eve", "he's a ***", "bla bla bla bullshit" answers, they're all invalid^^ He represents the opinion and likes of some players and that is okay. He is a right to be a canidate and CCP obviously recognizes that. Go flame me if you want, I think I said everything I needed to say. Thanks for reading and cheers.
D00d, you miss the point.
The csm has a clear mandate and that isn't member's giving their own ideas to ccp to get implemented.
It's taking what players have voted for and asking ccp to consider it or alternatives.
It's not that xenurias ideas are a problem, the fact they're his ideas is. They're not the most voted for by players ideas and are not the bleeding obvious problems with eve that need fixing.
If there was a huge outcry for cross dressing or wis content or even these quite bizarre fixes to missions, there would be a vote thread for it in the other csm subforum. |

It is laughable and puerile but this guys might, through an accident or people randomly voting on the CSM because they're forced to at the login screen of EVE, get on the CSM.

Noep, I think you clearly missed mine XD
If I may quote myself:
Makes sense now?
No, because what Xenuria offers doesn't matter. That is the point!
If, in an worst case scenario, Xenuria got into the CSM, he cannot just go to the CCP and go "I want cross dressing in stations". He cannot because there isn't player support by way of a thread with support votes in the forum where player concerns are voted for!
To quote the great one "It doesn't matter what you think!". What matters is the framework the CSM works within and taking your own ideas, no matter who stupid or how awesome doesn't matter, unless there is defined player support.
However...Xenuria isn't even trying to bring cool WIS content to the table, but being able to cross dress and some quite daft mission changes, mission changes that shouldn't be considered because the popular support for missions is more content and sleeper AI. |

maybe you should ask people what they want. Thats what I did.

Its his alliance dude, he's built it, he runs it and he's also respected by friends and enemies alike so you'll get no sympathy.

The funny part about the fact that he thinks you're stealing his votes is that he assumes you're getting votes.
Part of me thinks he made it all up.
