This time I want to focus CCP attention to solo players and small player group needs.
Those who new or was kicked and still decide where to join, small 2-10 man corps, lone wolfs. They need a place in EVE.

EVE large scale politics works great, inspiring us all.
But what happen to someone, who want to be alone for a time? What if you just joined the game? What if you were kicked from your alliance and don't want to pick a random one again? What if you want to play with your closest friends in a small corporation, but your friends are on vacation or just offline at this moment?
What can you do in EVE when you on your own?
What professions are there for player to explore?

This part of the game needs attention.

+1 for my CSM4 brosef Korvin. We have traveled the Icelandic wilderness together he's the best Russian the CSM can ask for

I watched Korvin work hard as part of CSM 5. He'll be on my ballot.

+1 for Korvin

A nonblock RUS)) candidate who isnt ******** and has previous CSM experience
Also at least some ideas i find agreeable

really hope you get in

I agree that Drone UI needs to be looked at. I want to set hotkeys for the different groups of drones, I want buttons to manage drones, right clicking menu in the middle of a fight is not the best way to manage them. Yes, I want it to be a higher priority.


First of all, I want to lower the entry barrier for small corporation in 0.0. Before Dominion the fact that you live in 0.0 was determined by your small POS online in the system, which was a sufficient condition if no more competitors in the given location. The income of a member of a small corporation was equal the income of a member of a large powerblock member, only the risk was higher. Now the risk is even more higher, the barrier and starting investments are higher, and the income is lower.
The second thought about sov warfare supporting small roamings is the idea of a large amounts of a secondary targets for a small gang to roam and achieve, encountering the opposite side roamings in the region. This small objectives can be a temporary booster structures the resident can deploy to get some benefits in a system, low hull, cheap, small and lootable resources inside. So people who want a system boost would deploy them with a high risk to lose, roamings search them for the low profit chance and high pvp chance, doing some moderate economic damage to the region. Making a 0.0 warfare is not only about the total system ownership, but about the degree of activity.


I don’t see a real issue here. Cloaking have a lot of penalties for the ship, and special covert ops are designed to have the less advantage in a combat. It’s all about the game balance, no need to force those players who need an opportunity to afk from time to time to logoff every time. Let’s say I’m playing at work (just make sure you won’t be fired for that, lol) and I need to get to work instantly as I need, so I cloak, do the job, return and play again. People need this option.


I remember the old Elite trading system, where tech goods were cheaper in a system with a higher tech level, food were cheaper in a low tech agricultural system ets. EVE needs a balanced regional resource system distribution, stimulating a diversification of a local market and making some group of production cheaper to produce in a particular region.
The second thought is the idea to make a planetary market, available only in a space near the planet, so people could smuggle goods, explore the map and look for the most profitable planet to trade to. This would also help those players, who want to run PI, but not enjoying the logistics. I think that planet colonies themselves should be also tradable.


I remember the new smuggling system idea floating around, where players could catch smugglers instead of NPC. I really like that idea. Some drawbacks rebalance would also be a good idea. I know that are CCP aware of those ideas, so it’s just a matter of time and resources.

Korvin will be on my recommended ballot. I served with him on CSM5, and I think he'll do well on CSM8. Every russian voter should have him in their ballot.

Frying Doom

Txs for the warning, but I don't see the way how can I stop anyone endorsing me, or why should I really do it.

Alekseyev Karrde for example is not running for this CSM himself but he also made an endorsement.

I strongly endorse this candidate! Good luck!!

Yeah. This elections caught me on the road. It was ok to post between a train or plain, but harder on a voice comm. Fortunatly things would change soon, I earned some extra free time last month.
