The last CSM had the most horrible ideas written down in some document they supported unanimously.

Which ideas were these?

There was a lengthy discussion thread about it on these forums. I can't be arsed to look it up.
Lets put it this way: what's there to choose when the entire CSM puts down their ideas into a single document and unanimously supports it. I haven't seen any of of the current candidates clearly distantiate themselves from this document either.

I believe he is talking about this document

http://dl.eve-files.com/media/1211/EVE_Online_Development_Strategy_%28CSM_Public%29.pdf
Which were only ideas for how to release an expansion, not the ideas within it. They stated very clearly that these were just examples when they were taking flak.

Well until CCP decided to do some work on POSs then the ideas were no longer examples apparently.

Let's face it, large blocks of well-organized (credit where credit is due) electorates will always win the day, no matter what "hocus-pocus" system is used to count votes, massage the numbers, and allocate "seats".

All we need now is an adult movie star to run for the CSM next time. Cool

At least the "robots" of null have the programming to go vote for their interests Blink

Voter apathy is because voting is for suckers.

As I posted here: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2880545#post2880545

Non-voting is the ultimate risk aversion, these people are so afraid that if they vote they will actually have to make a choice.

As to their "right" to complain afterwards, I see no reason why they should be able to be included in the process after they have chosen to opt out.

It is like refusing to enter a car race and then complaining that you are not winning.

So to those that have chosen not to vote, you have also chosen to STFU for the next 12 months. It was after all your choice, so don't complain about it afterwards.

I dint vote because it would take everyone together in CMS to make right things happen so i let the dice roll with out the regret of choosing wrong rep.

So in another words you didn't vote for fear of making the wrong decision.

Just don't complain if the dice roll, ends up being what you don't want.

In order to engage the general population, CCP needs to understand their customer.......Oops

All CCP has to do is create an ingame voting interface, in stations, and they would triple the involvement in the voting process.

I understand your argument, but I lean towards not changing my opinion - i.e. the CSM doesn't fit ingame. The CSM sits in the meta-game, channeling stuff into EVE and out from EVE.

I suppose even mentioning the words "T20" and "Aurora" counts as "rumor mongering" too? Might want to send your people to edit that wikipedia article then. Oh and be sure to send people in to burn down Kug's blog and stuff, too.
