At least he's honest and voted for a Goon, instead of voting for an "independent".

When you have an industrial candidate scoring lower on industry issues than even a nullsec candidate...yeah!

Like the people that voted for Bush because at least he was "decisive". Deserve what you vote for, eh?

I'd vote for Pat Buchanan, despite being Japanese-American. At least he's independent enough and stands for his convictions, even if not popular among those who'd claim to be non-racist, but can't refrain calling people "Japs" in their "enlightenment". At least I know his standings and he doesn't wear a fig leaf to "pass".

I don't want more "popular" candidates anywhere. Want them to have the balls to stand up for their convictions, even if they can be unpopular.

Yeah, I voted for Ross Perot, too.

Closest candidate I'd vote for is Greene Lee, as she (I'm not going to post s/he junk) wants to address customer service issues with CCP.

That's a real issue, the rest of the stuff are gameplay/mechanics issues, not the true bread and butter issues that affects everyone. Waiting 3 days for a reply/resolution of ingame issues is too long, 2 weeks to a month, is beyond belief.

Too much self-centered interests. I want issues like customer service; server lag/congestion (why in this one-world server why we have limits on how many are in Jita -- and for that matter the Caldari Prime event); POS interface changes; UI interface changes...not the special interest sideshows.

Real game mechanics.

Goons are one of the few nullsec entities whose candidates consistently appear to think the purpose of influencing CCPs game design decisions should be to make the game good, rather than to serve an ulterior in-game motive, which seems to be the approach of a lot of CSM members.

You can do far worse than vote for a goon.

Having riverini around is constant entertainment. Its fun to watch Goons pour out their hatred for him. Hate is a precious commodity in EvE. It usually leads to something entertaining.

I think we have different definitions of the word "good" though.

I mean some people might not like to be on the receiving end of the "good" that they are talking about.

Looking to talk on VOIP with other EVE players? Are you new and need help with EVE (welfare) or looking for advice? Looking for adversarial debate with angry people?

Ali Aras and Corebloodbrothers is what I voted myself.

Goons dont need any more votes, theyre doing a dandy job trying to rig the elections by themselves.

BoBwins Law: As a discussion/war between two large nullsec entities grows longer, the probability of one comparing the other to BoB aproaches near certainty.

I don't think people know what it means to "rig" an election. Because people keep saying it when it clearly isn't an accurate representation of what is happening.

Not sure if riverini alt or troll alt.

In either case, voting for him is beyond a mistake. He doesn't even listen to peoples concerns about his own website. *cough* greedy goblin *cough* So he won't listen to peoples concerns regarding a videogame.

You misspelled "sphere." In your corp name. You should fix that, it kinda makes you look like a tool. (A 7/16ths ratchet, to be specific.)

You need somebody who plays all aspects of EVE to be on the CSM. Those are typically null / wormhole dwellers. Players that seclude themselves in high-sec don't have enough coverage over the game as a whole to have a cohesive contribution on the CSM. I think, leastways. I personally prefer to pick candidates that look at the game as EVE; rather than as "PvE server", "Flagged PvP server" and "Hardcore PvP" server. It's EVE. It is a game filled with PvP from market warfare, social and political and good, old fashioned ships blowing up. Better to think of how Industry and Exploration and Sovereignty and so forth interrelate and how they can be improved to make the overall experience better.
