If you don't want to read through each candidate's wall of text, you can watch my CSM movie here.
Regardless of whoever you vote for, make sure you do! And don't hesitate to contact your CSM representative after the elections to get issues that are important to you discussed and looked at. |

Originally by: Abrazzar Had to abstain because none of the candidates has a large enough scope of view. Too petty, so no one.
Can any mortal live up to your criteria though? |

Originally by: Abrazzar Sure there can. Just need to leave of the comfort zone of their own ego and get out of their own mind. Everybody is going for specific solutions, specific sub-groups or general ego fapping. Just like the common politician and those don't get anywhere either.
There are people running that fall into that category, but there also are those that genuinely believe into making Eve better for everyone. I personally don't have an agenda myself, and I certainly support issues that go way beyond my personal playstyle or interests. People might call me a carebear for opposing suicide ganking, but the truth is that I was never affected by suicide ganking myself, and I raised this issue due to concern over the overall game balance.
Same goes with other issues. I went to do things that I would never do otherwise, to learn about other aspects of the game. I specialized in Factional Warfare, and on the current CSM I raised a few issues regarding FW, even though I'm not a PVPer myself. I went to 0.0 and low-sec to learn about small gang warfare and piracy, which are other important aspects of the game I never touched beforehand.
When discussing missions, exploration and industry I tried to integrate as many views as possible, resulting in unbiased issue documents. I treat the CSM as a job, and I don't even have the time to play Eve for myself, let alone have somekind of personal agenda or need to boost my ego.
Last CSM we had Dierdra Vaal from the Eve University, he wrote a whole document about bounty hunting, which is not exactly E-Uni's pet issue either, right? I'm sure that there are other candidates running in this election that feel the same, you just have to get out of your mind and look for them. |

I'm glad someones made this topic as theres scant infomation about this and everyone still seems more concerned with QR than voting atm, what would be realy helpful is a quick summary of each candidates views/issues. As Eva says theres alot of text to get through and alot of condidates.
EDIT: I still have no idea who I'm going to vote for.
There is a whole forum about the CSM and the candidates.
Here is the candidate index.
You can cast your votes here.

Actually Dierdra had a little help with the bounty hunting and Merc war issue...
Sorry, sorry, of course Arithron had a part in that as well.
I just wanted to illustrate that there are CSM that care beyond their own interests. |
