Ooh, catfight time.

It's not a cat fight. Spank is just summing up James' qualifications. Which is zero.

OP, Hmm an interesting way to get people to vote from high-sec.
I am not sure you really want to wake up the masses and get them to go to the polls.
It may not end the way you think it will.

Let me rephrase that sentence for you.

"Someone that irrefutably did run one of the biggest ponzi schemes of the time, nowadays runs one of the most innovative organisations that highsec (if not the entirety of EVE) has to offer, and maintains a blog while writing insightful articles for popular EVE news websites on topics such as the problems with highsec and how to fix them, risk vs reward and why carebear entitlement is a bad thing has every business representing the interests of highsec as a whole at the CSM summits in Iceland.

Lol

Definitely must be 12-21-12 Doomsday.

Why?

Because I find myself in full agreement with Lady Spank and Marlona Sky.

IMHO, Sansha would make a better high-sec CSM representative. He may be an NPC, but he has more name recognition than James 315 could ever hope for. Universal popularity is key to consolidating the high-sec vote, IMO.

Thing is, the percentages of people voting are so skewed away from hisec that hisec is likely not electing its own representation anyway. Whoever proclaims to be representing them would actually have to be voted into office by residents of other space.

Since the last time this topic was brought up, there was widespread support from pirates and nullsec-dwellers for James 315 as hisec representative, so he has a real chance of winning (unlike Sansha).

I wouldn't be quick to throw Sansha off the boat. Only 16.63% of the players voted in CSM 7. The lowest vote count received by an elected delegate was just 1,282 (a mere three tenths of a percent of the player base!) The top vote getter only received a "mandate" from 3% of the player base.

Given such a low voter turnout for a relatively large number of positions (14 delegates,) name recognition alone could probably get a person or NPC elected by the high-sec voting "bloc."

James 315 is a buffoon and troll. If he were to run for CSM he would have to give his real name and it would be plastered all over the internet for all time.

No one really knows anything about him- check

Spouts senseless rhetoric that polarizes followers and detractors- check

Doesn't truly represent the people for whom he would be elected to represent- check

Easily manipulated by those with true power- check

Sounds like a prototypical politician to me.

About as good a representative as Kim Jong Il makes for democracy and tending to the needs of the North Koreans when he still drew breath.

James 315 being a rep for hisec would only hand that to nulsec.

A month ago I would've picked Cannibal Kane over James315. Today... I would still do it.

I'd do a better job than James. I was ranting about carebear entitlement before it was cool. If it was up to me there'd be no level 4 missions in hi sec and only veld in the belts.

EDIT: I'd also undo the titan nerf, torp nerf, and nano nerf if possible.


Or go one step further have absolutely no belts in hisec other than the ones you'd find in a tutorial mission.The only missions you could run in hisec will be only tutorial missions and reduce hisec to just a handfull of systems. That would make nullbears extremely happy.

The agenda/ propaganda behind some players is fairly clear. If players like yourself and James 315 had their way, eve would be dead already -.-' hence why James would not get my vote.
