Yes, I run Evenews24.com which is considered to be a 'media website'' However I have always looked at our site differently. In my eyes the work I do for Evenews24 is purely a extension of my hobby, Eve Online. I love to write about things that happen within EVE Online and I love to manage my team. I'm not working for evenews24 to be this 'journalist'' I'm simply a player who likes to write stories (hence why EN24 is registered as a Fansite)

I do understand the underlying concern that might be out there however I want too I'm already used to dealing with a same type as situations right now as that I might run into as a CSM member. I'm a member of PL and the feared #REKKINGCREW. Both organizations have a ''Zero tolerance rule'' which means that you are removed from the alliance if you do anything that is considered leaking.

Both PL and the REKKINGCREW are heavily involved with daily events that happen within EVE Online and has also resulted in me running into situations were I knew something big but I couldn't write about it. This is not a problem for me, again I'm not here to become this known journalist, I'm purely here to write about stories that interest me and not here to screw over my own fun in the game.

An example of this is the time when PL decided to sell Brothers of Tangra to XIX and go back to a nomadic lifestyle. This was a move that would later have a lot of impact, with other alliances doing something similar as PL did. This move was something that PL members, (including myself) were told about, long before it actually happened and still I didn't talk/write about it.

It's not about whether or not you are likely to leak. Sion has already been in the CSM and since he's not been kicked for leaking it's safe to say that's not why he's been disallowed. The point is that members of gaming media are not allowed to run, one assumes because of the increased risks should a leak occur, so the rule should be applied to all gaming media. EN24 isn't a simple blog or fansite, it is a media site, so there's no reason it should be exempt from those rules. CCPs acceptance of your campaign reeks of bias and inconsistency in the application of the rules, and your election would only exacerbate that. Should you be elected, it would be good form to push for more consistency during these processes going forward, otherwise the integrity of the entire CSM is undermined.

EN24 is not involved with any other games and there for seen as a fansite, this was confirmed by CCP Leeloo. There was always a rule which disallowed other gaming company employees from running as CSM so I see the rule change only as a smart update as it makes sence to not have other gaming media staff on a team which sees everything that happends internally.

Feel free to poke me on slack if you want to talk about it even more.

Bob, you have my vote. You have always been a good guy to work with and from what I have seen during my time with EN24, you put the good of the game ahead of personal gain.

I hope this year you make it all the way.

PS. If you do and you find any spare tickets to FanFest just laying around the CCP office feel free to send them my way. Big smile
