So this **** is kosher?

And this.

http://www.reddit.com/r/Eve/comments/2xwc4i/uaxdeath_and_ccp_leeloo_drama/

Have already read about drama BS about Leeloo, talking smack to people on Twitter. Now this fishy crap, defending UAxDeath just because she/he/it used to be in X.I.X.

I suppose I should have figured though, already knew the CSM was just a useless drama show, but really...

Old news. Nothing new here. It's been this way since the beginning. All hail democracy's true form.

We already have an imaginary space detective, so having an entire imaginary space police force isn't that far fetched.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Perhaps you should read the reddit article a little more into, instead of running your fingers. There is more to it than buying votes.


"UAxDeath is (or at least was) the executive producer of Digital Forest which is a gaming company. He deleted this information from his twitter, but you can still see it on the cached version. If he still works there, he is ineligible to run for the CSM.
CCP Leeloo commented this fact:
"This company localizes mobile applications, it does not develop MMO games. Besides this, the company consists of a single employee and was not really active for the last year. It is hardly a competitor to CCP. I've allowed a guy who is a programmer for a mobile gaming company to be a candidate this year, because this company is also hardly a competitor. A single person I had to exclude this year is a person who works for Star Citizen. No names, it's a private information."

i don;t have an issue with this.


you do realize the CSM has ZERO real power right? It honestly doesn't matter who is on CSM. They are merely an advisory council thats it. so.. who cares?

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

We should all care because they have so much power. Roll

I want imaginary space police ride-alongs, and to play with the imaginary sirens.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

I'm still in this 'what does this matter' phase of the discussion. Who gives a damn, it's the CSM. It's not like the dude is running for congress.

It's always funny to see someone drum up outrage only to find that no one else cares.

Oh that's pretty awesome - it looks genuinely embroidered by someone who also gives no ****s about how crappy the embroidery was done.

Well-played all 'round.

I don't imagine a CONCORD ride along would be very fun. You be sitting there eating a (blue) donut and a half second later you'd watching a dude get DD'd then you sit there in space for 20 minutes lol.

it's seriously not an issue if ccp decides not to allow a person to run because they're underage, or caused bad pr recently, or is an open racist. it's also up to ccp to decide if a person's candidacy represents a conflict of interest. ccp leeloo is part of the csm project and is a professional. this is a non-issue.

Ignoring the fact that none of this matters to anyone besides those who seek attention, her reasoning is perfectly sound. He is not a competitor and she is well within her rights to make an exception to a rule.

No, he isnt. But the last time I looked, I dont think CCP actually means for the CSM to be a big joke. And after all these people are supposed to be an influence, to the game we all play.

Back in the days, with the T2 BPO mess for example. That sure wasnt taking money out of the congress's pockets, but some people were concerned about it.

I dont really much care if you all care or not. I'm just helping spread the word about the great people around here. Someone has to, instead of being a blind sheep.

That last sentence is the tell. It's you saying 'everyone should be concerned about what I'm concerned about. The fact that no one is up in arms about it based on your thread should tell you something (of course, it won't lol).

But hey, keep spreading that word, I'm sure you can 'get 6, hell maybe 7 more people who will be outraged that a game company employee made a decisions about something or other!
