Every nullsec player I've ever spoken to has more characters in hi-sec than they do in 0.0. I think if CCP made it viable for nullsec players to run their industrial, R&D, Invention, mining, etc etc alts in sov space then youd be in for a surprise at how suddenly hi-sec would empty out.


Sounds like a plan to me.


It does to me as well. It's the central platform of my CSM campaignm, in fact Blink

"True" hi-sec players might enjoy such a change as well - not just because queues for production & research slots would get shorter and competition of hi-sec belts would decrease, but because a lower density of high-asset characters in hi-sec would support a much lower population of suicide gankers and war-deccers.

(Don't worry about those gankers and wardeccers though; they'll be able to follow the exodus just fine.)

In what way are you an advocate for new players in a better way than anyone else?

Perhaps you were unaware that Kelduum ran on exactly this platform for CSM 7. I'm also confused why a player who started playing in 2008 is going to be a voice for new players? Do you hang out with a lot of them or something?

Pretty much everyone who has ever been on the CSM thinks corp/alliance management is terrible and broken, so what exactly are you proposing to do differently?

Well as he is not a member of EvE UNI, maybe he only looks at these forums, which would really make it look like Kelduum has done bugger all.

As to the corp/alliance management, maybe he has a different approach, like not lying down and taking it when CCP cancels a Summit on this very topic or should I say this very broken topic.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

I would be interested in seeing how CCP would reinvigorate null sec in such a way but as it currently stands it's such a massive undertaking and there's polarizing opinions on how exactly to go about it. First thing first should be to make towers more usable as addressing structures in their entirety such as outpost, iHubs and TCU's is likely to be less rebalancing and more of a total reworking like Dominion was.

I don't see it as important or necessarily useful for people to continually change the 'platform' for which they stand for election so even if Kelduum did have the same ideas his lack of activity and visibility on the subject hasn't exactly inspired the rest of EVE to think it doesn't need fixing anymore. Corp management is something that isn't so much of a fix as it is actually being 'designed'. It's never changed, it's still awful.

I suppose I'd just be a little more determined to get things done and try and put some legitimacy back in to the CSM. After all, as much as I don't like Mittani as a person all that much, he didn't let things go and pushed the CSM. I want to improve it from what it's become and not just wait until next year to comment on someone's thread around election time whilst being silent most of the year.

Didn't you seek to speak for wormhole people?

How legitimate do you feel your candidacy would be, when you launch personal attacks on CCP employees (Sreegs) based on rumours and poor journalism on EN24?
Why should we trust someone who doesn't cease in this behaviour, going as far as to misquote and straw-man said employee, even when proper evidence is presented which refutes your statements?

Furthermore, taking any one of your candidacy pledges, can you give a simple 5 step process for achieving this, along with a definition of an acceptable result?

I think you will unfortunately find the same brick wall that CCP wont even consider redoing corp roles for a long, long time.

But your platform and appearance of competency at least puts you on the short list of serious candidates. Good luck.

Thank you Alek, I appreciate your kind words.

Hello there!

I would like to name several situations that I feel are detrimental to the game. Give a solution and ask you for your stance on both. I do need answers to all the situations for my vote(s)

POS those three letters bring nightmares to just about anyone having the misfortune of having to operate one. The solution in the long term is obviously modular POS. Yet CCP seems to be backpedaling on implementing this despite the MANY benefits. What is your stance on the possibility of a near term bandage of a form of player POS that is only designed to be the equilivant of a Secure Container for ships until modular POS is ready?

Overpowered passive cloaking. It is now to the point where people are now beyond AFK cloaking but running Twitch.tv streams of enemy stations and systems! Would you support balancing cloaking to punish those who go AFK (Eventually able to be scanned down for decloak) while maintaining the benefits to people actively cloaking (Remaining at their keyboard)

Lack of Ring Mining. Again with the CCP backpedaling despite the many benefits for nullsec and other areas for the game. What is your stand on the crap that is moon mining?

The silly push by some in the community to end or delay "Local" or any effective means for those in a nullsec system to determine if a hostile or unknown is in system in them. This obviously needs no solution but I want your thoughts.

The horrible state of missions in hisec. The solution in my opinion is a complete rewrite to allow for a more incursion like approach that rewards those who want to train up logistic frigs and cruisers or be a specific role in a fleet. Also providing a way for newer players to experience group play in EVE.

Incursion suckage. With the nerfs to Incursions fleets have slowed to a trickle and it was sad to see CCP willing to spend more development time nerfing entire expansions instead of doing what was right being making other aspects of EVE better. Modular POS and Ring mining need dev time sooner so I will admit this ought to be looked at later however I wanted to get your views on them and have this to be some context to the next aspect of Logi.

Logi suckage. Logis do not have the tools to do their job. They need to be able to tell who is locked and taking damage and in large fleets the watchlist can't handle that leading to dependence on broadcasts that most of EVE seems to not know or refuse to use right. Look at any average HQ incursion fleet where people don't broadcast right stressing out logi or in fleet fights where following FCs orders makes it harder to broadcast properly. A solution is a logi only screen that is completely configurable to show who is taking the most DPS and who has the most locks in fleet.

Logi Suckage #2 Reps don't get you on mails? Wut? Solution obviously is to have repping those in fleet land you on killmails generated from fleet.
