So, xenuria.

You want me (amongst others) to send you to Iceland so that you can "reform" the CSM?

When you were asked to define "reform", you decided to define the word "reform" and not how you would reform the process.

I've read through your thread, and you know what? No, I won't be voting for you. There are too many smart mouthed politicians in real life without adding you to the list.

Come up with some actual reforms to the CSM, and how you would change EVE for the better.

Eve is the dark haired, totally hot emo gothchild of the gaming community

What's wrong about CSM ?

What would you do to reform CSM ?

Also what is your expertise field in eve ?

Would you still be useful to the CSM once you've reformed CSM and in which manner ?

Details are welcome.

So, Xenuria agreed to answer some questions for me, for which I would like to thank him.

Behind the platforms - Xenuria

You are 100% correct. This is because there is something called an NDA or Non-disclosure agreement that all members of the CSM agree too. This means individuals who are not on the CSM are not privy to insider information. ...
This is a reform platform which means there are black boxes and unknowns.
I don't know if you are taking medication or I am starting to be in need of them but if you keep putting out posts like this one then I think you may well win some genuine votes to your side.

Seeing as how I rather vividly remember one of your strange Youtube videos, here is a multi-part curve ball question with a central theme (do try and hit it out of the park, please):

  1. How do you think EVE players in general would react to unisex / cross dressing for their characters.
  2. How do you think they would react to pink ships?
  3. Do you think that Walking in Stations and other "Barbie doll" development would attract more females to the game?
  4. Do you think that CCP will ever pick up WiS and run with it again, such as integrating Dust social areas into stations or even implement a few things smaller like inviting a friend or two to your Captain's Quarters?
  5. Arrow Do you think that CCP would ever make an overt stand for LGBT (assuming budget and staff are available) and implement the cosmetics in the above questions?

CCP - Building ant hills and magnifying glasses for fat kids

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

Ask me about this in slack, this thread is for questions about my reform platform.

If your OP actually contained any useful information then sure but you haven't provided anything of use in your OP and refuse to answer people when they ask you for clarification.

Your short version is 3 lines, your "long" version is only 6.

There was a time when I ran as a reformist candidate and was laughed at by the mainstream establishment, one former CSM member even went so far as to compare my reforms to the gestapo.

Are the issues you saw with the CSM back then the same as they are now?

If so, have your reform plans changed since then, or are they still the same "Gestapo"-type ideas?


Quote:
Controversy after controversy rattled the CSM and the eve community.

Can you specifically list a few of those controversies, especially the CSM-rattling kind for those of us who were not playing then, and let us know how you would go about avoiding incidents like that in the future?


And something you did not mention in your original post. Do you think the CSM has any kind of power or influence on anything these days? If yes, could you define that kind of influence for those who may not know the ins and outs of space politics and give a few recent examples where the CSM did anything?

If no, do you think you can change that, and how?

I was having a rather awkward conversation with a former member of the CSM in the basement of the celtic cross in iceland.
I proposed the idea of term limits and a system to kick involuntary people and she told me my proposals were "gestapo-esk". She has some rather strong opinions and she is perfectly entitled to those opinions.

We now have a system to kick people who are asleep at the wheel and while term limits aren't a policy I don't think they will need to be at this juncture.

So, does that mean the reforms you are proposing without laying them out in detail have already happened?

Many of things I have pushed for in the past ended up just getting implemented when CCP Seagull took the reigns as executive producer. So yea it can be kinda funny or unnerving when your ~master stroke~ that you have had on the back burner for half a year becomes to focal point of a rising star's new game design narrative.

The next logical step was reform because it's not within CCP's Decision tree or behavioral norm to do that unless prompted too.
Some things have already happened, but as the result of player actions; not development practices.

Once inside the CSM, I will have the data I need to bring about reform.
