CSM Campaigns

Not voting for anything PL since I heard excessive use of racial epithet on Twitch Streams by PL leadership.

I think if i may be frank in my response that these two bullet points are the main reasons why I will not be voting for you in the CSM. I'll outline my counter reasons below:

1. "Hardcore Mode". While I admire that you think Pirates in Eve are "hardcore" I find the concept of alts skipping training and other foundation based skills for the sole purpose of having a "max level" alt is utterly ridiculous. Eve is full of alts. I myself have six accounts for various uses and I'm sure you being in PL have members that have dozens of alt accounts.

Putting alts in a position of "niche" maxed pvp skilled factions for the sole purpose of getting into pvp quicker in theory is okay but when looked at in Eve's current playstyle of having multiple accounts and characters is rather dangerous and unreasonable. Various entities would just train alts and place them in whatever Pirate Faction gave the best bonus for the current meta to support whatever doctrines were niche at the time.

Furthermore, the concept of locking out players of certain areas like WH's not only neuters WH's usefulness post Phoebe for travel and fleet placement, but limits the concept of the sandbox as a whole. Pirates already become locked out of High Sec due to Security Status. Further restricting players based upon "lore" or rather your loose concept of what lore should be in Eve is rather damaging to an already dying playstyle.

Which leads me to my next point:

2. Lowsec.

Your concept of low Sec being a "training ground" for a bunch of F1 pressing tidi fests is not only laughable, but is frankly insulting to those of us who live in low Sec for the very fights you claim Low Sec is to "train" people towards in Null. Null is not the end all nor is it the be all of Eve.

There are many players who flock to Low Sec to get away from the very grinds and blobs that you claim is the "Endgame" of Eve Online. Not only do I disagree with this ignorant concept but I find it rather amusing how Low Sec is so lightly thrown aside to only focus upon what makes YOUR game playable for your specific niche.

Indeed why wouldn't we get rid of post Phoebe changes to jump fatigue and give players streamlined combat alts? With your proposed reduction of nerfs to jump fatigue there would be no use for WH's and it would once again align entities who depended upon non fatigue timers and high SP characters with being back on top of the proverbial food chain.

Which leads be to my conclusion:

1. There are already Pirates in Low Sec (hi! *waves*)

2. Using Low Sec as a watered down region where players dip their toes in for very little to skitter off to Null is baseless and frankly insulting not only to those who thrive upon small gang PVP, but feel very strongly of improving and making Low Sec and Piracy a viable and fun place.

3. Post Phoebe changes are staying because it defangs entities who forgot to use Stargates and trying to undo them is laughable.

Until you actually approach people as a CSM candidate and try to learn their playstyle don't go throwing out ignorant concepts as the "best" solution or idea. it makes you look bad.

Do you have a link? I'm curious to see how bad this is.


Either way, not voting for Bobman or anyone else dragging their blocs agenda around trying to get on the CSM. I want to actual healthy change.
