Then don't site it as a source M`kay? It makes you look stupid. K, thx. Kisses.

Actually I will, as I said the forums are mostly hardcore players and a percentage of these have only 1 account.

Maybe you could site any facts at all rather than just making things up.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

You dont get it do you? Most of the people are in those large alliances vote and their alts also. Do you not know that most of eve is nullsec vet alliance members and their multiple alts? Doesnt really leave many 'others' to vote.
Also the only people really interested in stroking their egos rather than actually doing good for the game are those nullsec vet players.
And what is wrong with the people contributing the most, cash-wise, to the game getting a say in the process proportional to the income they generate, eh?

Don't like it? Get Hi-Sec to vote. Hi-Sec won't vote? Deal with it. Or join the WH- or Nul-Blocs.


lmao. Isnt that why i said i didnt vote... duh... sorry about you...

Easy question, If most of EvE is Null sec and their votes, then why did they get so few votes last year compared to the over 400,000 subscriptions?

Or are you now saying that 90% of Null sec did not vote?

Hmmm now that is an interesting point... I wonder what % of NULL residents don't vote

The realistic facts are that only about 20% of EvE is in Null sec, with a large number of alts off those accounts in hi-sec, but this is normally balance by the third alt still remaining in null(per account)
So say 400,000 players at 20%, is 80,000 players. Now in previous elections only 30-40k have voted for Null, so it means 50% of Null is not voting

Nor is the other 300,000 accounts in lo, hi and WH space.

So No if people voted Null would get drowned out, which is why they make claims about 30% of hi-sec being Null ect...

But the facts are that they are actually a drop in the pond and it benefits them for people NOT to vote.

But for things that suck the most.

I think that category is filled by the fact that so far this year more is being done by players to get people to vote than CCP is doing.

So far their promise to promote the CSM has run face first into a concrete wall.

At this point, your'e really going to want to cite anything that starts with "The realistic facts".

I think this concrete wall will be repeated again and the final solution is compulsory sufferageIdea

Nice try, but the high numbers = more alt accounts.

Allowing ISBox to multibox 20+ accounts ensures it.

Compulsory sufferage......LOL

THAT would be funny to see.


Also, the amount of people who do not understand the rudiments of causation makes me sad.

I AM SAD NOW GODDAMIT! FU!

Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

It's filling all the issues an industrialist would be concerned about in the questionaire (e.g., more ME/PE slots for one), and seeing your platform near the end of the list.

I mean even Greene Lee who isn't running on any industry platform came in higher than you. One WH candidate got 71%.

If you really were about industrial concerns a WH candidate shouldn't beat you on your own platform.

You're really upset that he asked you to cite a claim you specifically made.

In case the point still flew miles over your head (a point fiying miles over the head of a thick as pig **** SMA shirtlord? NEVER), there's a big difference between "there's more alt accounts now than there was years ago" and "there's a steadily growing trend of alt accounts". If you still don't get it, maybe someone can draw it in crayon for you.



I seem to have made you angry. I am pleased. And here is me drawing it in crayon for you, "there are more alt accounts now then there was years ago" and "it is do to a steadily growing trend". Guess what, these two ideas fit together quit nicely.

Look can we avoid any of your Evil Null sec propaganda at the moment.

Look at other realist facts, I really care about the high sec vote.

And due to the hordes of evil Null sec, candidates 5 wonderful candidates have stepped forward to combat, the massive attempt by Null sec to control the CSM

These wonderful people fighting against the darkness of Null are of course.

Ayeson
Chitsa Jason
Cipreh
James Arget
Nathan Jameson

So please save the CSM from the hordes of darkness and vote for those above.

So vote for the WH candidate then.

71% is better than the 0% you are looking at if you don't vote.
