If a Sabik were to hold high office, I would look forward to......?

Greetings brothers, sisters, fellow servants of the great Lord, labourers in the Great Work, devout believers, warriors of Amarr, and of course a cordial, polite nod to the rest of you.

Now as you know, the annual election cycle of the Council of Interstellar Management is almost upon us once again. It is a powerless corrupted body created to appease the masses, but nevertheless there may be some change in the council, how it operates and its ability to push for a better New Eden.

Should, for a completely random example of a highly unlikely scenario, a Sabik be elected to finally bring true purpose to this body what wonderful things would you have hopes for? What fantastical positive policies, in character with your own interests and motivations do you think should be achieved?

My campaign advisor has spoken at great length of the importance of appearance of engagement and listening to your demographic. This is it. All your going to get. You piteous misled feeble minded souls. Use it. This is your chance for some pathetic measure of a voice whilst final policy positions are being formalised. Do not mistake this for some form of equality or recognition of value of your horrendously misguided personal morality and ethics.

Thank you for listening and I look forward to your response, and hopefully support in the coming weeks.

Are you running in the thing ?


I would like, a greater selection of clothes in the NES. Frilly dresses, lingerie, hats, gloves, etc. etc. etc. And handbags.

Indeed I am running. There will be a media campaign etc, and an interview as well (this weekend in fact).
But I was more after peoples ideas on a thought experiment that if an actual Sani Sabik ran and got elected. Not these pretend ones you see cropping up now and then, but a real one.


I do love the ideas around customisation and clothing. I think it is far too limited for clothing at present, and I for one resent that there is no blood stained Amarr robes to choose from. Very disappointing.

As a devout Amarrian I would like to have a small say in how I hope things will be if you are elected in CSM.

How will you make FW great again?

A) We have illegal Caldari second-class citizens coming into our war zone and claiming our rightful LP.

How will you stop this?

Would you go as far as to build a wall between their war zone and ours AND MAKE THEM PAY FOR IT since they have been taking loyalty points rightfully ours that they have stolen from us til now?

B) Slaves dock up at the sight of any great Amarrian armada.

How will you coerce them back into the glorious fray of battle?

I for one, suggest a longer combat timer in the warzone so one cannot just simply fight, disengage then dock up.

As a matter of fact if any of them dares to undock, there should be a severe penalty for undocking then docking instantly back up in the form of a timer.

C) Lastly, this whole pendulum nature of FW must be changed.

The minmatar are losing ground at an unprecedented rate. As the Amarrian warriors and battlemonks march towards the eventual domination of the war zone, it is only fair that minmatar gets a little advantage for their home system.

I will leave the possible advantages up to the wise decisions of the CSM, however, I feel that having some kind of advantage may convince Minmatar to leave their stations and defend their systems.

I must have missed the memo about the CSM being a platform for beating one's enemies and not, you know, being a simple feedback provider to the CONCORD Assembly about Capsuleer issues in general.

Edit: Also, I am being true to myself. I've always been a diplomatic kinda guy. It's why I was happy to change the set up of the Pakhshi Conference to enable a fairer voice for all. As someone of mixed heritage, it's in my blood to be sympathetic to multiple view points.

The correct answer to this question is that all Minmatar pilot licenses should be revoked and their bearers enslaved and sacrificed upon the Altar of God. However, CONCORD is a wicked and vile organization and will not do this, so I will not bother asking for it.

Being a small-ship pilot in a more-or-less one man corporation, I am not impacted by most of the issues the CSM handles. However, I do wish to register a complaint regarding CONCORD's poor regulation of the performance of ships in the frigate and destroyer classes lately. A couple years back, CONCORD outlawed so-called "tiers" and around the same time reeled in the dangerously unsafe Angel ships that dominated space then. For a year or two, we had the best frigate and destroyer balance we Empyreans had ever known. But then CONCORD starting screwing up again, authorizing more dangerous unsafe and overpowered hulls, culminating in the so-called T3Ds that obsolete everything of their size and lower. These things should never have been approved, but now that they are, they and a couple of other "cancer" hulls need to be regulated down in performance (even more than they already have been) so that we can return to the semblance of balance that we enjoyed in the immediate "post-tier" era.

P. S. In addition to the previously mentioned blood-stained robes, we need to get back the Visors that Khanid males used to be allowed to wear back before Captains Quarters were introduced.

Astounding! We are on the same wavelength in so many ways, New Prophet Nauplius. This last very night in The Summit I mentioned how delighted I was not to see a ******* Dramiel every other ******* ship that jumped through a ******* gate...

I see. Well I suppose "Oh My ******* God People There Are Too Many Clearly Defined Ships Doing To Many Clearly Defined Things Too Well So Lets **** All That Up Again Because Stuffing Our Thumbs Up Our Asses And (Re) Balancing On Them Can Be Billed As New Content" strikes again...

Well now I'm voting for him twice.

Nauplius actually speaks sense. I am terrified. Is this the end times?

In all seriousness, yes, some hulls can definitely use some rebalancing. When my Breacher can clobber a Dramiel over its head in a 500m orbit brawl and stand a 50-50 chance of coming up on top, something is very wrong.

Answering the actual question, if a Sabik is elected into the CSM council I expect him to be limited to working on ships, capsuleer infrastructure improvements, resource management programmes, dealing with the capital-class vessel power creep, capsuleer-specific laws and etc. instead of, you know, pushing for the legalisation of the Sabik faith in Empire sovereign territories.

A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.

This is a fanciful question.

God, your own lack of skill and devotion and the falseness of your heart made you too weak to be a worthy champion for Khanid.

Do you really expect a different outcome in this venture?

What would I like to see? I'd like to see CONCORD reduced to the minor political advisory board that it is supposed to be. I would like to see an end to the pointless border skirmishes. If a government wants war, then they should be able to wage it. If they want peace, they should be able to create it. If they fail, they should bear the brunt of that failure.

I would like to see our Empire BE an Empire. I want my people to reclaim their rightful place within that Empire. I want to see Khanid be the Sword of God again and be wielded without fear. I want a re dedication of honor, a rebirth of the Cyberknight! I want to stop having to beg and spy for the intel that I need to protect my people. I want us to be what we were designed to be! And should one such as you rise to a position to make these things possible, then I want the quickest route out of HiSec, because it would mean all is broken beyond hope of repair.

Does that answer your question?
