Wormholes

actually I did vote half based on ticker (not nullsec alliance). If he had been honest instead of waiting til csm were announced things would of been different. Then he would of either lost or won as a Goon WH representative. How can I trust him to do whats best for wormholes and not follow Goon agenda?

Hes done a good job last year, I will give him that. But he should of been open about him going to join Goons during the election.

We voted for a man from wormholes, living in wormholes, whose primary occupation was wormholes, whose primary concern would continue to be wormholes for the entirety of his term. Having him ship his main to a null block day 1 (day zero?) is a slap in the face to the voters.



Corbexx, you did a fantastic job last year. But I wasn't planning on voting for a guy with alts in several wormholes, I wanted a main. I look forward to seeing these projects of yours, only time will tell if you're able to stay focused on wormholes the whole year. Being a null diplo can keep you rather busy.

I removed some replies to an edited out part of a post. In other words, real life politics have no place on this forum.

Those defending Corbexx need to understand that the reason for the posts questioning him are not polarized. Nobody with any sense hates him, nobody has questioned his contribution in the past CSM. Infact we quite rightly point him out as one of the hardest working reps on one of the best CSMs we've ever had (that coming from both the playerbase and CCP). He is a nice bloke (standard, he's a Brit we expect no less) with amazing dress sense etc etc. I don't expect any of that to change.

The issue for me personally, as far as there is one, is the PR side. He's not trolled us, Goons have. And he let them use him for a stunt - they are lapping at our tears and WH tears:best tears as we saw with the mass changes. They don't like us and we don't like them. Corbexx knows this much at least, and cannot have expected a different reaction from the people who voted him in last year; the people that gave him this opportunity in the first place. What does that say about his attitude to us as players/his voters? To WH space in general?

In lieu of any real explanation as to why he made this move, what this tells me is Corbexx is a pawn, and wants to play at the big boys table, leveraging his work in the past year for dinner with the Mittani and connections with people that really exert influence over the game. Not wormholers. We are marginal at best and have to accept it.

Regardless, you had my vote and you likely will again next year if you produce like you did for us before. It's not as if we have anyone better to stand for us. Yet.

Huh... I didnt realize what upset me about the whole thing until I read this lol.

Except for that last part. I still want to believe that he cares for wormholes just don't know if he will have the time if he TRULY took the diplo job.

lost my vote.

There is a lot of anger in this thread. Aren't you guys supposed to give gf after you are beaten?

Why hasn't anyone given goons a gf?

If this was the only way goons managed to "get back" at wormholers, who have regularly been farming goon ratters, then no theres no point in giving goons a gf. Just a mediochre laugh in their direction and then continue as usual.

As he said above! At the end of the day, this is just a game and not a single one of these people are actually important.. however if you are going to play important, at least use the people who voted for you as ur followers. Corbexx made a bad move and should expect this response.

Indeed, and I would like to thank Corbexx (the man) for an effective demonstration of his honesty and integrity.

This demonstration is an effective response to any players who look to Corbexx to fairly represent their interests.

And, by extension, fully incorporates the CSM as being dominated by the EVE metagame,
rather than being an honest attempt to improve the game for all.
