HiSec is very hard to organize for a lot of reasons. It's where nearly ALL the soloish players are. It's filled with a ton of micro corps, industrialists, marketeers, miners and what not. All the NPC corps are here and there is nobody at their helm so it sets a precedence of a kind for the rest of the systems.

It would be like herding cats, not impossible, but getting a root canal might be more pleasant on a daily basis.

CCP treats HiSec the way it does because it's the Golden Goose of EVE. Most of your part time players, family folks, etc. live there and their monthly PLEX accounts are important to CCP and the game of EVE as a whole.

They get called Carebears and other unsavory names, but in the end HiSec is the anchor to EVE. It's the Continents in the middle of the raging storm generated by LoSec and the Islands of NullSec. It's EVE on 'slow' speed. You don't make much fast, you don't usually lose much fast.

CCP knows all this and they do a pretty good job of protecting HiSec all by themselves, the CSM doesn't really need to protect or represent HiSec but the members of the CSM should have a good grasp of it's importance and factor in that their recommendations should not include ones that kill the Golden Goose.

TL;DR:
Don't put HiSec into risk of too much turmoil is all the CSM needs to worry about that part of the game.

thanks for convincing yourselves that your vote didn't matter, highsec

Oh, we voted but we're a disorganized bunch by our very nature. We also can't be coerced into voting for a unified slate like the null rank and file can.


As such, you lack representation on the CSM. This causes your false sense of disenfranchisement, and thus a general feeling of apathy towards the electoral process. What you fail to realize is that it is your own behavior that is causing it. Honestly, if hisec players want to be represented, they need to organize and put forward a candidate or candidates(s) with enough support to get on the CSM.

With as many players as there are in hisec, I'm sure it can be done.



Pray show me one even half way decent candidate and I'll vote for him (next time)

As it happens my main vote went to Nash, a couple of other got votes from me as well.

Scandalous isn't it? A high seccer voting for a Low Sec Pirate.
