I can see both sides of it, and at the base level I agree with Darius about the "don't say anything you wouldn't want made public". But at the same time I think there's a danger to every conversation and exchange being more performance than substance, something that I think has been far too much a part of some of the earlier meetings.
There are many situations in life where a dispute can be resolved by a private conversation between two people - but when that conversation is public record it presents an obstacle to compromise between strong personalities "on stage" as it were.

Originally by: Darius JOHNSON If it's good enough to be communicated to the ENTIRE COUNCIL then it's good enough to be shared with the subscribers.
I'm with you on that, I meant to go on to say it just depends where you draw the line with what's public and what's private. That's a good rule of thumb.

I got the impression that the Capital Ships Online topic just needed a one-line summary that encompassed the totality of what would be presented to CCP in writing. It sounded like it was the unknowns in Bane's planned presentation that were throwing people off, and next time around if it's all written up ahead of time and summarized in a way where the reps are clear what they'd be supporting, it will be easily escalated.

Originally by: Hamfast I think what Goumindong is saying is that CSM members who are not informed on an issue should not vote "No" but abstain...
I got the impression from the chatlogs that the CSM had word from CCP about abstaining, suggesting that it requires 5 "Support Escalation" votes to move an issue forward, and that an abstention is the same as a No vote because of that. Is that true?

Originally by: Yuki Santara That's only a technical difference though, one could always wait until everyone who cares has voted and then vote with the majority.
That's true, they could do that - but I agree with Jade that if you're elected to the CSM you should do some research and talk to people in order to gain an informed opinion, not abstain. I think people abstaining from votes are not doing their jobs.
