Anti-Goon? You mean, will I let the in-game politics/events carry over to a PLAYER body that meets in real life, to discuss whole game issues?
I won't! In-game remains firmly there. I am working on the principles that all those that have stood for the CSM have stood for the right reasons, and wish to make the game that we all enjoy (all players enjoy it, otherwise they wouldn't play) better. Darius has shown himself to be a good, intelligent and useful member of the CSM last round. It was just a shame that many CSM members couldn't put in-game alliances and politics aside.
Eve allows for many different playstyles, which is why it's such a rich and entertaining place to reside away from the real world. I don't think it follows that a player's style reflects in any meaningful way their RL ability to be part of a council. There is the possibility this round of 7 members of Goonsquad getting onto the CSM. So long as they are there for the right reasons, and are prepared to listen and represent players, does that really matter? Is it any worse than CSM members being on the council, and running for the council, with the stated aim of catching CCP's eye for internship?
I find it interesting how there is always one large alliance that everyone loves to hate...a few years ago it was BoB, now it's Goons...hopefully in a couple of years it's the Gallente Trade Alliance!
Take care,

Destroy Eve? They are doing a pretty good job so far, just a goodly-sized chunk of 0.0 to go, plus Empire....
PvP for the world!

Are you implying that I am in the Goon's pockets? I might have misunderstood.
It's really irrelevant which alliance/corp you play in within Eve. Given that players often have multiple accounts, they can be members of opposing alliances if they wish! What's important is the PLAYER- they are the ones that front up to meetings, discuss issues and vote. It's up to voters to decide which candidates they think will do a good job on the CSM. It's interesting that 7 of the candidates are from one alliance, but there is no way of knowing how many of the other candidates have a Bob/Goon/Red Alliance etc alt. For all we know, 20 of the candidates could have a character that is a member of one alliance!
I can look past in-game politics and work with others on behalf of players. It doesn't mean I am in anyone's pocket; just open-minded 
Take care,
