We were discussing ganking and yes, then there are only two sides. No need to bring in irrelevant societies in to the discussion. And you can say anything you want. If you want people to take you seriously, then also try to respect other peoples opinions. Have a nice day Blink

You know, your argument might have more weight behind it if you chose to post with your main, instead of hiding behind a 'consequenceless' alt.

Funny, to this day many people don't believe that William Shakespeare wrote all those great plays.

To post on my main would mean an instant declaration of war from the marshmallows.

Not one to favour one C&P associate over another, another bump for another day on the campaign trail.

Thieving pirates discuss INTEGRITY; Anarchist gankers give us LAWS; and Whoring merc's cry then blow off clients with INSULTS.

Up is down and down is up in the C&P Forum.

Good luck tora, I haven't gone over your campaign but maybe you'll get in this time. Imagine us both getting in? Would I need a Kevlar vest? Just kidding.

Bon chance to a good administrator, even though your arrogance negates that to a degree.

In real life I agree with this. In a game where people are know to be extremely petty, not so much.

But hey, keep propping up your homies by trying to shoot down valid concerns.

Anyway, is there any proof of the CSM actually changing anything that the player base has asked for?

And by player base, I mean across the board.

It's fantastic that you compare yourself to Shakespeare, and it's at this point that you lose any and all credibility that you might've had.

Running for CSM you do as a person, not a character you play in Eve. In real life I help people, in Eve I want to be evil. Don't mix them up when you vote, as the real life player wants be in the CSM.

You've got my vote for making these statements.

Not to de-rail this thread too far, but yes, there is plenty of proof of topics that the CSM and/or members of the CSM have advocated for being implemented by CCP. The CSM are not game developers; they're an advisory body. The actual development cycle and implementation of 'changes' is completely at the discretion of CCP. However, that doesn't mean the CSM doesn't have input into pushing for priorities for CCP to focus on and by assisting CCP in fleshing out ideas. Proof may be found by using this.

You missed that one by a mile friend.

I was merely saying that the content is what should be weighed.

Keep posting with your alt Deity, for all the things I have said about CODE I would be perma-deced.

Alts and the forums are part of Eve so don't change your game play to suit others.




Another bump for hisec.

On any other post then this you would be right (as thats what Tora does), but like I said before, this is a serious CSM post where we should be able to seriously discuss subjects. As a CSM you should be able to handle disagreements. If you cant, you shouldnt run for CSM.

I would like to know your thoughts on the bounty system. I think the fix presented a few years ago was rushed and temporary and the whole system is overdue a rework. In my opinion kill rights work, but I think they are backwards. A player should be able to issue a kill right on a player for a reward to the person completing the kill. What are your thoughts on this?

I agree with your sentiments on bumping, though bump fatigue is a little extreme :) I think MJD's for haulers would be interesting.

I've had so many thoughts about the bounty system since they first started it and yes, it never really worked. Outside highsec people often fly small ships or pods, so getting 20% of the killmail is not worth it and in highsec there are so many people abusing it to scam players, that even if you see a killright, you often need to long to check it all before you activate it. Why would you need to buy a kill right at all, you're hunting down someone for someone else aka working.

Offering a reward on a certain player via a killright makes more sense. That also solves the problem of war deccing an entire alliance/corp just because you have issues with 1 guy.

Yeh, bumping fatigue is a bit to much, was just kidding. Lol MJD's for haulers. That would make ganking way harder. I'm ok with harder, unless it makes it almost impossible to gank, then it would be unbalanced again towards the other side. But yeh, something to look into to.

At least bring back the criteria that a pilot has to have bad sec status before you can place a bounty on him/her. Perhaps have another mechanic for placing a "hit" on someone.

Bounty: an amount of money given to someone as a reward for catching a criminal

To put a big red, "WANTED" on someone implies that they've committed a criminal act.

"Bounty Hunter" could be a legitimate profession.

Make it a random mission-type endeavor from Concorde agents. You don't get to choose the target (which avoids gaming the system) and it pays a flat rate % of the bounty for bringing back the corpse to the Concorde agent.

You would have to have a non-negative security status, but would not suffer any security loss for killing your target and podding them.

Just an idea...
