Who the hell are you? I am Promithius (go figure) many of you already know me, and many more have absolutely no idea who i am, so here is a brief introduction.
I have been a member of the eve community for going on 4 and a half years now, iv been a CEO a capital FC (some of my more notable madness occurs at this point), an alliance leader, and i dare to say there are few areas of eve i am yet to encounter, apart from those mysterious "zombie entity's" that lurk at the bottom of your celestial groups in your overviews (seriously go check).
Why should we vote for you? Hopefully many of you will cast your votes based on your experiences of my defecation and determination, and perhaps some of you because your mad.
To be serous for a moment, i chose to stand for the CSM this year because i feel that the gap between CCP and the player base is not only vast, but its widening. My intention is to work tirelessly to bridge that gap, taking your ideas and opinions and making your voices heard by CCP. If there is one thing that i have felt constantly throughout my time in eve, its that my words have never carried to the top, I intend to change that.
Thats all well and good but how will you help me? In every way i can, tell me your opinions and that what i will deal with, after all that is the point of the CSM.
Feel free to contact me with any questions and thought, either by replying to this post, or by visiting. My website where there is a contact form you can use. |

Although what is your stance on the nano nerf?
I believe that the up-coming nano nerf is yet another example of the lack of direct communication between CCP and the players. Yes some balancing is necessary, we all know that nano has become the staple of roaming gangs and not re-balancing the mechanics would just let the situation get more and more out of hand. After i encountered a 45kps crow a few days ago i came to the realization that any ship able to go so fast that they are for all reasonable purposes invulnerable is not a good thing.
HOWEVER and this is a big one, i don't think that the way CCP are suggesting these changes are the best way to go about resolving the issue. The idea is clearly unpopular, almost everyone i have spoken to believes that its to harsh a change, and i am inclined to agree.
So in short, i believe that the nano changes were made with good intention but very poorly executed with a distinct lack of listening to peoples opinions. |

Originally by: Itukki If you could take 2 topics straight to CCP what would those be (apart from the nano nerf)?
Its difficult to rant about only 2 things :), but if pushed i would speak about the old GTC issue and how in my mind and the minds of those i regularly speak to, it has never been resolved. As far as we can see all this has served to do is increase the price of plying eve , it has also artificially pushed up the price for gtc's with isk, given that before when you had 30 day and 90 , the price of the 30 days put a limit on how much you could charge for the 90's , now we are up as much as 500+ mil, which is more than we used to pay for 90.
Secondly i would want to raise the issue of the petition system, as im sure all of you have experienced the time honored tradition of the "copy paste response". The system makes the players feel disjointed and as if they are not really being listened to, some small changes could help make the system feel a little more player oriented, im not entirely sure what those changes might be right now , i have some ideas but that would be the point i would raise.

I have been wondering around talking to people on vent and ts servers and decided that i should do it more often.
If any people/corps would like to speak to me regarding the csm election , ask question, express opinions or just have a chat i will be more than willing to oblige. Contact me ingame ( send an eve mail to Promithius) and we can arrange something from there. After all communication is the most important aspect of the csm.
If you are unable to use ts or vent feel free to post questions and the like on this thread. |

Originally by: Amarkon Would you support the introduction of new industry icons for corp logos? I mean don't we have enough skull and crossbones? How about some industry icons, asteriods/mining. Doesn't seem that hard of a thing to do. That would be enough to get my vote.
Sure why not, its a simple suggestion and if it makes people happy then it gets my support, god knows i have seen enough silver skull and crossbones and circles of stars to last me through the next 10 patches. |
