I don't like the look of you.

I think that pic hurt your campaign.

Edit: I mean, it's like Edward Scissorhands meets Robert Smith, only fatter.

I am 6'8", so I can dunk on you.

Ventro69: There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

maybe just maybe if you actually asked me some legitimate questions about my platform you would get answers.

Ok....maybe we should be asking the question this way since direct questions from others have gone unanswered.

If you really believe you represent the majority of EVE players, what exactly are the concerns you have and what will you be trying to change? LIst them here please!

(PLEASE OMIT ANYTHING THAT RESEMBLES DISDAIN FOR ANOTHER PERSON ALREADY IN THE CSM, CONSPIRACY THEORIES OR PLAIN THEATRICS!)

I want to make the game more appealing to the current playerbase (via fixes and innovation) and also make the game appealing to a wider audience by fixing inconsistencies between the lore and the game. I want the game to maintain it's current learning curve but also be approachable by people who may not be as intelligent or attentive as the average eve player.

I wanna see eve swell with subscriptions and players of all different backrounds and ideologies. I want eve to be a diverse melting pot of intrigue and adventure.

I think we can agree that certain types of people simply find EVE "boring" and this is not because eve is in fact boring it is the way in which eve presents itself to new and potential returning players. This is where my psychology experience will come in handy.

Ellen Langer talks about mindfulness in learning AND teaching. Teachers are like chefs and the way they prepare a dish even if that dish is something a person may not be willing to try will effect the chances of that person accepting it and maybe even enjoying it.

The same can be said about eve and the way it presents itself as a package of information to new people. Keep in mind the intro game for eve used to be alot worse CCP has overcome leaps and bounds to make it better but it still is somewhat lacking in it's presentation. I think they need a fresh set of mindful eyes like mine to give them a different perspective.

So while the basic ingredients of EVE and its intro game may not change the way in which these features and functions are PRESENTED can be changed to appeal to a wider spectrum of people and in turn increase the subscription rate.

1) All I hear is that you want the game "dumbed down". If that is the case, there are other games out there for you.

2) It already is.

3) How exactly will your psych experience come in handy?

4) I believe the word manipulation would best describe that last statement.

Xenuria, please list your accomplishments related to Eve. Also, please list accomplishments in other areas that you believe are relevant to your candidacy.

You guys need to lay off of this guy. He has a lot of good points about the general atmosphere of EVE and the player experience.

So Xenu tell me, do you have any legitimate ideas except for dumbing the game down, annoying mitt romney because you don't like him, making eve more LTGBBQ friendly and other inane **** that won't improve gameplay at all? Because yeah, when I think of the problems EVE has, I instantly think of LTGBBQWTFQ people being offended because ~their eve toonie~ can't wear the clothes they want. No wait, it's the mittens, and his army of kittens (herding cats, get it? lmao) ruining the game. No wait, it's because EVE IS TOO HARD.

Just go away, nobody is going to listen to some self-diagnosed sperg (or real sperg same diff) who actually wears a fedora (lmao) and raves about their psychology background which somehow allows you to analyze why the game is boring people.

Not only do you get off to kiddy diddlin' which makes you a terrible human being and pretty much allows me to describe you with the word '****', your posts in this thread are either a) question dodges or b) suggestions for things that eve already has or c) dumb, no-content posts. I can go to /b/ right now and fish up posts with more content. I've seen better arguments on fyad. You literally have no idea what to do and are just running for CSM because of a longing to stay relevant and because you hate Goonies or something.

People aren't giving you likes because they genuinely like your ideas. They are giving you likes to see you sperg out more (which is hella funny tbh). You are literally Chris-Chan except Chris-Chan didn't wear a fedora all the time. And he wanted to be a little girl or some ****. But at least he wasn't a pedo!

tl;dr you suck and i'll probably get banned for this post (it was gonna happen anyway, that's why I have alt accounts)

PS. I voted for you with all my accounts, please make more videos

Have you named any actual plans yet? "Make eve more attractive to a larger playerbase" is like saying "I'll fix the economy!"

How do you plan on doing any of that?
