Edited by: Trickster Lokee on 15/06/2008 10:55:14 Currently these are the top 15 player supported issues in the hall:
30-90 day GTC 603 votes Use of eve mail as a logging system 465 votes Skill q 177 votes Should not post to support 155 votes Cyno jam / jump bridge 149 votes Remove jade from office 144 votes pos flogging dead horses 131 votes suicide ganks 117 votes Minmatar caps 106 votes player ban 103 votes looting kills should flag you to me 102 votes Vote of no confidence in CSM chairman 99 votes unfinished story arc 95 votes option to change all ammo at once 91 votes replace in game models of titans with monster trucks 84 votes
These are what your delegates are working on.

Delegated to: Serenity Steele Jumpbridges and Cynojammer fix Transferable Killrights (Not a top vote) Funky POS Alterations (Not a top vote)
Of the 24 issues your CSM are working on only 5 of these were actually supported by even a minuscule portion of the user base. Two of the highest voted on topics deal directly with removing people from office. Again, these issues are not on the agenda. One issue raised is simply ridiculous "monster trucks", however it should not be up to the CSM to decide the merit of the issue raised but to represent the people's decision to raise it. They are not "The Decider" as Jade "GW Bush" Constantine would like you to believe but rather they are REPRESENTATIVES of the player base. If CCP wants to shoot down a stupid idea let them. But if the players choose to bring it up LET THEM.
Now part of the fault here is that the hall only has a yea vote and is lacking a nay vote. I am certain we would get a much more accurate idea of what people want brought to the table that way.
We can not, however, simply assume that an abstaining vote is a vote against an issue, nor can we simply allow the CSM to decide for us what should and should not be brought up before CCP. Their job is to represent us not themselves.
CCP has laid down the law on the 5% rule, we do not however have to accept the CSM's cherry picking of issues. A popular vote should determine whether or not an issue is raised in the event that no issue reaches 5% or not enough issues reach 5%. Picking weaker topics simply because the CSM dislikes one which has more votes is not a justifiable reason to ignore the people.
Support this issue if you demand that popular vote be the determining factor in issues raised and support this issue of you demand that an explicit "do not support(thumbs down)" vote be added to the forum. The CSM must represent the player base.

you're pretty much wrong, I am glad that the CSM ignores topics like "monstertrucks".
As I understand it the CSM acts like a filter between CCP and the playerbase. the 5% rule makes it so that it is possible to force an issue through the CSM and to CCP. In other words, if monstertrucks gets 5%, it goes to CCP.
nice stats though, and interesting read. |

Well, why haven't Darius raised it to the council?
Originally by: Trickster Lokee

Is already sent off as a part of the agenda
Quote: Should not post to support 155 votes
Already being worked on by CCP, as per the first chat log.
Quote: Cyno jam / jump bridge 149 votes
Already raised
Quote: Remove jade from office 144 votes
This is already raised as a part of the "CSM should vote for its own chairman"
Quote: pos flogging dead horses 131 votes
This is the "Funky POS Alterations" issue. So you are contradicting yourself.
Quote: suicide ganks 117 votes
Ankh raised this.
Quote: Minmatar caps 106 votes
Get one of your CSM representatives to raise it. I don't know why it wasn't raised beyond time issues.
Quote: player ban 103 votes
We are requesting to talk the IA. This could very well be a part of it. But we have to make the request first.
Quote: looting kills should flag you to me 102 votes
I don't know why this wasn't raised
Quote: Vote of no confidence in CSM chairman 99 votes
There is no such thing as a vote of no confidenec from what I understand from CCP. But this kinda goes hand in hand with the voteable chairman.
Quote: unfinished story arc 95 votes
At the time of our last meeting for the Iceland agenda, the topic hadn't received 7 days discussion.
Quote: option to change all ammo at once 91 votes
This was raised
Quote: replace in game models of titans with monster trucks 84 votes
This means the CSM works as intended. Filter trough stupid ideas.

But people would whine if we didn't raise it. It was raised as it was a concern at the time.
Quote: General Eve Forums improvement/fixing (Not a top vote)
Yet a very very big issue as large parts of the community experiences it
Quote: Drone Implants (Not a top vote)
It was a topic which at the time had significant support compared to other topics
Quote: Re-examination of 0.0 Sovereignty (Not a top vote)
Reaches out to a lot of people, had a good amount of support at the time. Had support from CSM Member.
Quote: Evaluation of empire war dec mechanics (Not a top vote)
Was sponsered by CSM member I believe
Quote: Improve Bombs (Not a top vote)
Generally high support at the time.
Quote: 5% voter issue (Not a top vote)
Important issue, so that YOU guys can push forward issues onto CSM for next term.
Quote: Alliances and Faction Warfare (Not a top vote)
High support at the time
Anyways. You get the drift. I won't waste more time making the same point.
At the time of their posting they all had very high support % or they had CSM sponsorship.

Well, small point. But it's not entirely true that the 5% rule will force an issue trough CSM. It merely means CSM has to discuss the topic at their next meeting. The issue still have to receive support from the council.

And this. We're there to read the issues and make sure the important ones that can be good for the game get onto the agenda. Part of the job is filtering out high vote "issues" that don't do anything good for the game.
-edit (and yep. 5% means we have to discuss it on the csm - it still needs to pass a CSM vote to be raised to CCP discussion in the conference.)

Raw number of votes isn't necessarily the only important statistic for gauging support for an issue. What about average votes per day (since some topics have been around longer than others), the vote-to-reply ratio, the sympathetic-to-unsympathetic reply ratio, etc. Some topics disappeared into the background when a CSM rep announced that they would sponsor them, so it's very unscientific to say that some of those wouldn't have had a great deal more support if no CSM rep had weighed in on them when they did. The reps preempted what they thought were worthwhile topics.
CSM is not obligated to put every topic on their agenda; if that were the case then we wouldn't need a CSM at all. They're doing what they're supposed to be doing; I have no complaints about their choice of topics.
If certain topics continue to build popularity, then yes, ultimately CSM will probably take them on. It's a long time between now and Iceland, though, so relax.

Whoops! Wow, time flies. I suppose that's for the better, though; the first CSM was always going to have much more to talk to CCP about than any subsequent CSM - gotta get through several years of backlog.

While I do agree that our votes are often ignored, in this particular case the most significant issue concerning Time Cards, IS being worked on. Therefore it looks like our concerns are being heard, at least to an extent.
Also, you gotta admit that it is silly to compare a 603 vote TC thread to a titans<-->monster trucks 84 vote thread. 603 votes is at least enough to get noticed, 84 votes, is just "a few" people. Off course they will get ignored. I see nothing wrong with that.
PS: I want to thank LaVista for working on mid sized freighters, and rigged ships and cargo. This might not be a "top vote" to some, but it is a very significant issue that can improve the game in many ways and allow newbie traders to get to the top within any reasonable time frame. The way it is now, for many traders, acquiring a freighter is just about as hard as acquiring one in real life... I've been playing for a while now, and I grind for hours on end, but I'm no closer to having a freighter now, than I was when I started. I understand that this ship is something that is not supposed to be accessible to newbs, but he way it is now, is the rich will only get richer, and the poor can only dream of getting there... ever. There is no "inbetween phase".
I'll give "a half of a thumbs up". The other half, is thumbs down.

I think half the problem is seeing what is out there as a popular topic and have decent support. There is so many different ideas and issues flying around it is a daunting task at best to see everything or catch them all.
Also the current work load of the counsel should have some sort of limit due to the fact there are limits to how much each one can actually do. Some issues are so complex that a rep may only take on one while some others might be more of straight forward proposal.
The counsel has a finite amount of time to spend on a certain number of issues. So we have to understand that if you have 100 well supported issues the counsel has to be able to pick the top "x %" of that group for this time around.
I think if we can somehow employ some tools that would make the issues/ideas by showing a more of clear proof of support I think that would help both the counsel and the player base.
(Aye votes: x )( Naye votes: x) (Base support: x%)
From there the CSM can quickly see what has some support and react appropriately.
As far as "Monster truck" posts. Its not a hard stretch to see that was a troll post. It does not take that much use of the brain stem to actually identify the fact that it is not a subject to be brought up to CCP. If the CSM can not tell the difference between a troll post and a real issue you are doing it wrong.

This. Raising a specific stat on a single ship (Nighthawk needs more PG) was brought before the CSM, yet a whole line of ships for one race being out whack was not. I'll add that the Minmatar cap ships thread has had much more support than the Nighthawk thread.

I'd like to know the CSM's comment on CCP's actions regarding the 30-90day ETC. They were aware of the issue, and surely aware that it was being taken into consideration. If the issue was beyond the CSM's level should we not all have been informed?
Allowing us to vote on an issue that has already been decided shows a very poor level of communication between CCP, the CSM, and the community. Sig removed, inappropriate content. If you would like further details please mail [email protected] ~Saint |

Edited by: MotherMoon on 16/06/2008 22:57:42 there are two ways for it get on.
A:A csm members can support it B:it can get 5% support of total voters. (needs to be looked at though but still)
so vote and it can count.
or elect better candidates next time.

What I don't support is this forum or this thread.
All those issues seems more important than what you've been lobbying for in here. With the exception of POS' being just that still, pieces of s***.
