gIRL LOOK AT THAT BODY

Cancel the CSM and be done with it.
Personally I think the money for this group of idiots to travel to iceland is put to better use to provide free espresso to each ccp office to improve efficiency.

I've witnessed what happens when all the nullsec leaders get together. It is not boring.

heh here you go m8

You can't vote until you're 18 years old.
Some years back women or black people weren't allowed to vote either.. .. for women in Koran-ruled countries this is still true, afaik.
If you're in a foreign country you're not allowed to vote either.. no matter how old you are.

So in essence, if your main (the one with the most skillpoints) is/was mostly in region x and you got alts all over the place the account can only vote for a candidate from region x.

Well, it would be interesting to improve the politics of EVE in regards to the CSM. However, ther isn't a system of residency in the EVE universe so creating areas of representation based on geography and or population isn't a possibility. If CCP wanted to they could do this though.

EVE does have a tremendous amount of potential. The above setup would inject a political simulation into the game along side the space pew-pew. EVE was moving to having a really interesting market and industry simulator too. That seems to have perished over the past *18months*. Not the game style for all players to be sure, but many were avery active. Then again I used to enjoy a game called "Capitalism". That was an interesting market sim.

Some days in EVE it seems that everybody who came up with the sandbox idea has left CCP and the EVE community.The current trend seems to be moving to PvP-only sim with people calling for the removal of mining and industry, insurance, clone costs, etc. World of Spaceships with 15 minute PvP matches in your gold Scorpion.

Save the sandbox and you save the game. Null sec and PvP are not the end game. There is no end game in a sandbox.

But no, just because there is a single server system doesn't mean the CSM won't work. The CSM doesn't work because of the people in the CSM.

Naturally, PvP has a place in the sandbox. It would be boring without it being present. However, if it becomes the only primary activity in the game, then you lost everything else the game had that made it different. What difference would it make if you have a player driven economy if nobody does the industry? Then the only choice is to turn it al back over to the AI in the game.That's just one example, but do you se what I'm saying? After a while all you get is World of Spaceships with pew-pew arena matches. Some would love that, no doubt.

The recent releases from CCP have been improvements to small things. some worked and some not so much. The real issues are not being deealt with though. CCP is looking at the contuation of releasing more shiny items over fixing things like POS management. That's actually a bad practice. I understand it in its current context since its save the game or look for a different job time. Shiny only buys time.

Sadly, the only thing that the CSM and CCP seem to be able to do these days is structure grinds (like the POCO) or try to break everything they don't really understand (which seems to be most of the game). Going to the PvP aspect of the game with continued degredation of the rest of the game is porr management. It doesn't sem athat anybody talking about the changes are familiar with anything but structure grinding so that may be why there is actually little in the way of game improvements.

Mars base. With lasers....

Yep, it's all self interest. CSM full of Tech moon holding alliances like Goons and PL asks CCP to address the technetium bottleneck in T2 production, thereby reducing the value of tech moons... Totally selfish. It's a conspiracy

Yes. I'm sure that's just what happens. I'm sure Mittens is somehow involved with their nuts though. That much is probably true.
