PLEASE SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR MY CAMPAIGN BY CLICKING 'LIKE' ▬►


Hello, friends;

I have been thinking, with CSM season soon upon us, about what sort of qualities make a good elected representative.

To that end I thought I would poll the audience to see what issues the most vocal of you think are important. With respect to the fact that the most vocal of you are not necessarily the most numerous of you, I invite those readers whom usually do not post to reply with their own ideas for what they would like to see.

Please keep in mind that the CSM is not the development team, and that no candidate can in good faith run on a platform that promises specific changes. I am more interested in what opinions, what ideas, and what general principles you, the People, think are important in a person's character. I hope that this is a civil discussion we can have on these forums, particularly because it is the various alliances, coalitions and other organisations in EVE that shape the game content.

Oh, and vote for me for CSM7.

I want someone popular and likeable. Someone who can really communicate with the People Of EVE, cross borders and bring people together in like.

I would like a CSM candidate who really listens to the concerns of the EVE playerbase and isn't afraid to tell CCP, "This is what the players want." I want someone who really represents the EVE community and will work with CCP, the other CSM members, and the community to propose serious change. Let's bring the players and CCP together for a better EVE Online of tomorrow.

I WANT A CSM CANDIDATE WHO DOESN'T DRUNKENLY TELL A NEWBEE IN A RIFTER TO JUMP THIRTY JUMPS TO SYNDICATE PRIME THEN FORGET ALL ABOUT SAID NEWBEE AND FORCE SAID NEWBEE TO JUMP THIRTY JUMPS HOME. LUCKILY FOR SAID NEWBEE, JEFFRAIDER FROM PL WAS THERE TO ESCORT HIM HOME SO IT WAS OKAY.

THANKS JEFFRAIDER.

Whoever should be CSM must have at least 5,500 Space Likes. Otherwise, they clearly are not active enough in the community or are terrible posters. People with more than 5,500 Space Likes are active greatposters. This are fact.

We could just troll ccp and have everyone vote for the least likable, most annoying, unreliable, inconsistent, most cringe-worthy candidate.

but seriously... profligacy on the forums would be a great attribute of any potential csm member... Lyris would fulfil that role.

Donuts. I want donuts. Not just any donuts will do. They must have powdered sugar on them.

The powdered sugar on my donuts must be covered with pistachio icing. and not that cheap **** either, the good stuff!


tl;dr Pistachio powdered sugar covered donuts will have my vote.

I would like to see me on the CSM board just so i can have a big reset button on the table with the words TEST on it.

Failing that i am happy to see tittage. Lots of tittage on the board.
