EVE General Discussion

Matches and gasoline are nothing to play with, mkay kids?

But yeah - not sure why goons are getting mad now either - there is no imminent threat, SCs will get nerfed to oblivion, so there is no future threat to their sov, PL is leaving the north, abandoning their tech moons and bots don't care if they have new ships to fly anyway...

Odd timing.

yeah its kinda laughable to say theres no isk in null

I wanna send an email as ask if high sec or low sec are gonna get love but I dont know the email lol

lol csm wasnt consulted on the 13 plex thing

HUGE SURPRISE there

Im actually wrong in that theyre all talking which is interesting cause in these these things mittens usually does all the talking

"if the pilots are claustrophobic an they hate leaving their pods, WHAT ARE WE WiS?????"
QFT

lol "what are you guys gonna do other than create negative press for EVE?"

Mittens: "a lotta ppl have ******** ideas what to do when youre in power" - He says such as resigning or breaking the NDA - so no releasing the minutes or Mittens actually rebelling guys

and no, he's not gonna retire cause "that would be stupid" lol

Gotta take another shot, Mittens said AGAIN "farmville in space" and "we need stuff to do not to wear" man can he come up with his own material?

Post with main, etc.

well that's about it for whatever hopeful views of the csm I had. (after listening to the radio broadcast)

They are just a tool for CCP to use, nothing else. Always have been. Good intentions, but expectations and self flattery that has spawned from them defeat it's purpose.

And what I find hilarious are the ones that claim they have 'connections' and pound concrete to the media over these issues.

NO csm, those media outlets have connections with you because they will always try to get you to talk for as you said, website hits. They don't care a bit about you otherwise, or CCP and EVE for that matter.

The EGO that has grown of this group, to think that they have an ability to call for the player base to do something and the crowds will listen and follow, is just unbelievable. The preaching done by mittens and the lot thinking they know what's best for the whole of EVE makes me gag, CCP just needs to yank the CSM program and wipe it's hands of it.

Pretty much. The only thing I learned about this is its not just the Mittani, its the whole CSM that feel the same way.
We (those of us in highsec) need a CSM representative. A whole lowsec (mind you he couldnt even remember the name of the one lowsec guy he was that important to Mittens)/0.0 CSM (even as ineffectual as they are) whispering in CCP's ear is bad for the ppl that dont have representation.

Honestly, and this isnt cause I want the game to die but for a reason Ill make more clear in a second, I hope CCP stands up to the CSM, disbands them, tells them to go screw themselves or something. Simply put because if they bend to their pressure, whats to stop the CSM from doing this kind of thing every time they want a change. Then the CSM really WILL have become a monster.



The democratic system (flawed as it is in this game) got him to the CSM but he thinks there shouldnt be such systems in games. Maybe he realizes just how much damage he can do lol

I find this entire situation completely unacceptable. The whole "meeting minutes" situation is really starting to **** me off. We've been more than patient and frankly - my patience level is starting to significantly drop. If CCP doesn't do the right thing and I mean soon, they're going to lose another two accounts and the possibility of me even being remotely interested in Dust 514 and WoD will completely vanish.

For now - I place my hopes in the CSM. They're our voice. Let's just hope those at CCP sitting on their thrones cannot keep ignore the peasants which support them.

---

PS: Furthermore I completely agree with Mitten's position. There has been a serious lack of "EVE-content" in the expansions lately. No trailers, no new features, and hardly any real content expansions.

/yawn

Who cares anyways?
When the game no longer is fun for you, find something else. When I finally get bored, I'll move on, until then, this is just stupid e-drama, and an ego boost for the members of the CSM for their illustrious non-positions within the community.

calling it now, Mittani is gonna ditch the whole "0.0 lobbying" thing and go straight to campaigning on a pro-PI platform.

I read this thread.
I read what Mittani wrote.
Looked around that Kugu site, browsing the convos about 0.0

Here's a puzzle, for people who say they don't care about the game and bump into walls all the time, they sure know why , when and how a system fell the other day. A system that oh, 95% of the players have never heard of unless it's mentioned in the login page news. Also a great depth of knowledge about SC blobs, hot drops, logistics, intel as well as all the meta gaming that can be applied.
I am reminded of Frank Zappa, sticking his finger up at high-tech studio production while at the same time up to his ears in it when it suited him.
This in high contrast to straight-out ignorance of activities like PI and mission running that (face it) most of eve is doing.

Think I've figured it out. We have here people who want to have it both ways, shrug and giggle when they lose, pump their fists in the air when they win, and all the while dramaqueen it up about issues they distort into calamities. Infantile.

tl;dr: for the livestock --- dramaqueens are playing a different game than you are.
