The question is, how does EVE's jester get their voice heard by those who matter, in a timely fashion, and get heard above all the mindless know-nothing bleaters?

Regular people do that by posting well-reasoned, non-inflammatory posts in the proper location, while keeping to civil conversation and not reducing to petty namecalling, or by talking more privately to an elected representative.

If you want to play the role of "court jester", though, you are on the right path indeed, but don't expect to be taken seriously. Why? Here are a few of synonyms of "jester":


  • Fool
  • Clown
  • Buffoon
  • On the Eve forums... Troll

No, to what?

No Cov-Cynos in hisec?

No to revamped NPE?

No, I shouldn't run (already suspected this, Petrus' well-reasoned posts just kinda helped cement it into place...and once, again, I'm not so masochistic as to relish dealing with Mittens on a constant basisUgh)?

No, what, exactly, O Paragon of Ultra-1337 Endgame PvP?

Ni.

What a joke. I knew you would quickly resort to ranting, petulance, namecalling and generally exposing yourself as inept. Well done.

And you are, predictably as ever, contributing nothing worth mentioning to any thread on this forum whilst over-estimating your own worth. Vastly so.

1/10--got me to respond--but lacks any other redeeming qualities. Come on, Skank, I know you can do better than this. Feeling a bit off today, are we?

Next!

Read what I wrote:

I never said that I would run, just that I'd been thinking about doing so. But likely won't.

Stating a truth to a generic forum troll using words of more than 1 syllable is now "ranting," is it?

Well.

Aaaaall-righty, then.

E: Campaign-season hasn't started just yet, by the way.

Blocking me and ignoring me, but still finding the time to talk. I feel the love. Lol

Edit: I bet you secretly take a look at what I'm posting..... Hi \o

Well I wouldn't put much more thought into the subject because you clearly do not have what the roll needs

Instead of ~thinking~ about running for CSM, which you won't get into, you should be compelled to biomass.

Roll? Dice-roll? Barrel-roll? Immelmann-turn plus half-roll on top? Sweet-roll? What "roll" is that, mate?

But seriously, now:

If kissing ass to people I normally can't stand and want nothing to do with is needed for the role, then yes, probably, you're quite right.

I still want ideas though, as stated in my OP:

How to revamp lo-sec, bring back the genuine risk to hisec whilst preparing beginners to face it properly, and general empire-space PvP.

Plus ideally, ways to ensure Mittani and his ilk keep their grubby paws out of worm-space, just because someone else's end-game is different from his/theirs.

Being court-Jester to the 1337-sters' clueless, befuddled, and half-insane Lear is much more fun, besides Twisted

(And I can visit Iceland on my own time, as well. For reasons that--shock! Horror!--have nothing at all to do with EVE, imagine that!)

My God, you are such a perfect little Internet-cliche, aren't you.

Aaaaaand, blocked.

Generic little prat.

(Can I have my bandwidth back noaw, plx, kthxbai.)

I feel compelled to actually go play EVE, instead of moulding myself into anything the likes of you can approve of, and probably bending my principles and convictions into knots in the process, all for a bunch of meta-gaming bullshit about a pixel-spaceship game that may well not be around in another 3 years.

Sigh...Sanity is once again restored:

It honours me to note that I would make a reeeeeeeally bad politician.

I still want to hear ideas, as detailed above, though.

Make them reasonable, please, pants-on-head stupidity like wormhole mass stabilisers will be summarily eviscerated as they deserve.
