CSM Campaigns

Hi Hello my name is BadAssMcKill. I'm a strong independent PVPer who don't need no coalition and I'd like to announce that I will be running for this year's CSM.



I've been playing for 2 years now and while I may be a bit younger compared to some of the other candidates, I feel like I've tried a lot of what Eve has to offer in that time while not succumbing to the bittervet syndrome.



I am first and foremost a PVPer, while I've done missions, Incursions ,and manufacturing most of my experience is in PVP. I've done everything from solo and small gang to laggy blobfests, from interceptors to dreadnoughts. Most of my time has been spent in Love Squad [WOMYN], a corporation formerly in Confederation of xXPIZZAXx and best known for its bomber shenanigans and skirmishing against TEST and TRIBE in the past year.



Apart from obvious issues such as POS and SOV mechanics that everyone feels strongly about, I'd like CCP to focus on the following.

• Improving on tiercide/rebalance efforts , for example taking another look at the cruiser rebalance or the more recent RML rebalance. Iteration iteration iteration!


• Push for a module tiercide. There's basically no reason for some meta modules to exist right now!


• Removal or a further decrease on the cost of clones. When getting podded without implants costs you more than a cruiser, it’s a little lame.


• Introduce areas of NPC nullsec into regions without them. ideally more regions should have a few NPC nullsec systems. This would allow small raiding alliances to more easily harass the locals as well as potentially create more small-scale conflicts rather than everyone waiting on The Big War™ every few months.


• Smaller objective based PVP. While I can't say that I'm a fan of the ESS it seems to have a habit of attracting fights. Structures with less EHP or shorter timers would be nicer.


• Larger region gaps. I feel that currently capital ship jump range is fairly balanced at a local scale. This change would serve to increase travel time across the universe while leaving local travel much the same. Combined with more pockets of NPC space like mentioned above, it could do wonders for small-scale conflicts! Power projection on the whole needs a good looking at though, but that’s so closely tied with sovereignty mechanics that it’s a little difficult to outright fix.


• Improve PVE content, especially missions. In addition perhaps a rework of Incursions now that so many people run them and how easy it is to ragekill the Kundalini. PVE content could be fun by itself instead of being something you more often than not do half-afk only to see your wallet balance grow one digit larger.


• Space Volcanoes, we need Volcanoes. In space.

Thank you for reading! Feel free to ask me questions here, or through Eve Mail.

Badassmckill is a cool dude and would be a great CSM.

He has a very in-depth knowledge of both smaller scale PVP, and has participated in large fleet fights too, in Lowsec, Nullsec, and Highsec.

I actually really like pretty much everything you've said. I wanted to know your thoughts on "farms and fields." I've wanted CCP to introduce lowsec/FW aspects into 0.0 to give small gang fleets in nul a more impactful purpose.

Also being a bomber pilot myself...no bombs in lowsec? wtf is that!

Badass is a really good dude and knows a ton about the many varied areas of the game. He would be an awesome CSM and would bring a lot of knowledge to the table.

Well I wouldn't go for straight FW mechanics in 0.0, just take some of the aspects and modify them to a unique 0.0 flavor.

As for bombing in lowsec, I wouldn't also want bubbles, just the bombs. Bubbles make bombing easier but not completely necessary. The first wave hits in 10 seconds and the second wave several seconds later, that may give enough time for the ships to warp away. But throwing in a batch of void bombs in the first wave will cut off their capacitor in 7.5 and the following waves will land damage. (This is more for other readers as I'm sure you know this) So personally I think having bombs but no bubbles situation in low sec can create unique interesting possibilities. Nothing ground breaking but still.

what are your thoughts on pirate capital ships


(also badass is a really cool guy and i'm voting for him with 420 of my 1488 accounts)

Nothing would save the Thanatos from being garbage but gimme a Nyx with 90% webs

what about the other 666

i'm wheniaminspace and i support this message.

ps: clone costs are literally cancer and they don't function as an isk sink because they kill activity
