Dear Eve community.
I'd like to offer you a unique opportunity which, I think you'll agree, is far too good an opportunity to miss. We see a lot of smacktalk and chestbeating on these forums.
But how do you know if your forum warfare is actually hitting the mark?
What this community needs, more than anything else, is some independent, impartial research into public opinion on the major alliances. Yes, that's exactly what it needs. That's where Skullduggery Inc comes in.
I propose founding a monthly benchmarking survey, stopping and surveying a random cross-section of the community from key systems throughout Eve. Research would primarily be of a quantitative nature, to allow easy tracking from month to month, but some qualitative elements could also be includes.
So why would that help you?
I'm proposing setting up the first truly reliable analysis of public perceptions in the Eve community. Want to know if your latest threadnought hit the mark? That's where I come in. Want to see if your alliance's CAOD gag helped increase public opinion? That's where I come in.
Research would be benchmarked on a monthly basis, so you could track the public's view of your alliance over time, to help you optimise your public relations strategy.
That sounds great, Windy, What do you need from me?
You'll be surprised how little it will cost to buy in to this truly independent research. In fact, I'm offering my services for free!!
All I requires is donations to the value of 1bn isk. That would allow me to conduct 1000 surveys, each one incentivised by 1m isk.
So let's get this project off the ground asap! Get those donations coming in, and together we'll help to make COAD a better place for all!

Actually thought it was a good idea up to where you said it was free, then wanted a billion isk in donations, nice effort that one though, might fool as many people as the rapier/reaper contracts XD...
But i suppose if people voted how they rate each alliance you could get a prespective of respect shown.. not a bad idea, if you find a real way to implement it.
Pack it up, Pack it in, come on let it begin!

You'd have to pay me more than 1M ISK to take a survey.
In fact, you owe me 30 seconds of my life back.

Good luck anyway Windy.

You should invest in this endeavor! General Windypops is an alt of integrity and vision. Honestly, he has built up heaps of credibility with his constant spamming of the CAOD. What would take 30 goons to do, he does himself with style, panache, and a deep understanding of english grammar. His spelling? Spot on. Diction? I don't know. But I do know that he is the man for this job and this job of taking your isk is very important. Though I have no honor, I can recognize it in another, and that honorific pod person is General Windypops.
Let him be the professional unbiased pollster that we need. All this takes is a small donation from you. Please, for what amounts to only a few isk a day, you can help a poor out of work General Windypops.

You need to preface your surverys with a screening question to be sure you get people who actually pay attention and don't just waste your time. Something like "Do you follow the Great War." or "Do you read CAOD at all?"

Depends if you only care what COAD readers think. Most forward thinking Public Relations experts are also interested in 'control' groups - people who haven't necessarily been exposed to propaganda messages.

Show some good faith and sportmanship then Windypops and take those 500 mill from your own pocket! When the survey is done and you can show us something truly amazing facts, we the CAOD readers will take your current CAOD attitude up to evaluation! Maybe next time your CAOD posting rate/score will be higher..

Just a tip. If you're going to launch personal attacks on people's intelligence then:
a) Use a spellchecker first b) Try to post an intelligent burn, rather than just a meme.
I'm trying to do something constructive here for the whole of the Eve community, so stop trolling.

No one cares - and you're awful at this.
If this is the closest you come to a "constructive" post - I can't believe you haven't been banned already. Bob hates you. Goons hate you. EVERYONE hates you.
Stop. Friggin. POSTING.
