Mittens was the best choice from the last election. Too bad I'll have to pick Lyris this time though as he has more likes

Some of you guys that have never set foot in null sec have almost no understanding that high sec carebearing is nothing without null sec. Null sec last year was in a really sorry state and to a degree still is and the csm has done a good job sorting that. Don't forget that that last few eve expansions have been high sec/carebear related content. The last null expansion was years ago.

So:
Miners, who buys your minerals? What are the used for?
Mission runners, where do all your deadspace officer mods come from? Who buys all that salvage?
Where do vital components of tech 2 ships come from?
Who buys all the faction ammo?
Who buys up many of the ships at market hubs?
Who buys up most of the modules and rigs at market hubs?

The answer to all the above is null sec/pvp'ers or people involved in supporting null sec and pvp. Null sec drives the eve economy. Without it, there would be no demand for ships and no demand for modules or faction ammo.

So basically, any CSM elected by anyone needs to look at 100% of the EVE aspects and population and as much of "Future EVE" as they can. They can't only be for one part of EVE or the whole thing gets too unbalanced, too unfun for one portion, which affects all of the rest of EVE. If the CSM discovers that the council is too thin in representatives in wormholes or lowsec, then they'll need to make up for the lack by talking to those that primarily do those activities.

If CCP perceives that the CSM isn't considering the whole EVE picture when recommendations are made, the CSM's credibility with CCP is likely diminished, and thus one body of player voices is reduced.

Got any evidence to support your claim that one or more CSM members support RMT? Or are supported by RMTers? I'm not sure which your claim is, because it doesn't seem like English is your first language. To which I say that I am absolutely sure you speak English better than I speak any other language, but you might want to fix that ambiguity.

If Mittens and Co didnt say that he/they are againts RMT that almost like the supports it, you know "for evil to triumph good people have to do nothing".

"almost"

And I've always thought that saying that you misquoted* is bullshit.

"When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle." is the Burke quote from which that comes. Sounds a little different from the standard:
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
Doesn't it?

The CSM will again be made up of people who for one reason or another represent players who actually care enough about their game to vote.

If you care enough about Eve, then vote, its that simple, all you need is a candidate who wants teh things that you want. If no one else cares enough, then yes, itll be another nullsec csm.

Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing.

I actually think that zombie one was quite good. CCP always likes that kind of thing, zombies, kittens , communists and such. Just takes a few seconds to warm up to the pic. Could be a hit or a sleeper hit at least.

edit: on the king of the neckbeards one you should photoshop his face more western or so then photoshop it into the sign. His face is too american, that is why everyone hates us, our faces dont natural conform to the background and such.

To the Goons


Your master the Mighty Mittans posted a picture of himself with a women he was not related to for the envy of all other neckbeards. The problem is that if you post pictures of yourself into the public domain anything can happen.

here is CCP whatever her name is as a Zombie as imagined by Andy Warhol

Well I have been watching cowboy films lately so there are lots of cowboy looks to choose from. Good cowboy, evil cowboy, or a miner or hermit cowboy. Your the artist, so you get the artistic licensing to choose which look to add for him.

Also pretty funny with how the Goons wrote the Bible. The Goon God looked upon Job dissapointingly and sent his Goon angels to interdict all of Job's family members and belongings. Then the Goon God looked down upon the destitute Job and smiled. Goon God ordered for Job to be interdicted for 3 months, then finaly the Good God was satisfied and let Job have his family and posession back. So it is Written.

Yes punish The Mittani for having pre marital relations with a woman. Or at least being seen in public with a non family female. He was hired to push the players issues to the devs, not create romance drama in the work place.

A very true statement. I agree 100% that EVE would be nothing without Null sec.

However High Sec is equally important.

If not for the high sec care bears all those things the Null sec/PVPers buy would not be there, for them to buy. There is no where near enough industry in null sec to support the demands of the Null sec EVE community. Without high sec care bears most PVP would be done in the free Noob starter ships with only the rich players even having the isk to buy anything higher than meta 1 mods.

Supply and demand. Without high sec supplying 95% of the products sold, the demand for decent modules would be so high most PVP players could not afford them.
