I now know exactly how Brisc Rubal feels, I do nothing wrong but I am slandered by CSM Steve Ronuken as being blind when in fact there were at least 3 errors confirmed by CCP on the CSM page.
A) The apply for CSM button does not appear for all users on all occasions.
B) The email address was indeed wrong.
C) When completing the application CCP are not receiving it.
Instead of properly investigating these errorâs the current CSM by way of agent Steve Ronuken viciously slandered my competence & called me blind.
Heâs not yet apologised for this but I think he may have helped CCP Dopamine resolve the issue.
And youâre one to talk. Sure, youâve edited your post to be more civil now, but it started off being a bare accusation of CCP trying to game the submissions of CSM ballots, to just people they like.
And yes, the email address was wrong on the application form. Which youâd only have known, if youâd seen the form. On the web page talking about the application process, it was correct. And did you really think that csm-contact@ccpgames was a valid email address? Seriously?
And just for reference, I did go and look at the pages (other than the applicaiton form) when you mentioned them. Which is when I told you were to find the link. That was through Discord. You didnât, at that time, respond, and instead posted this forum topic (which was a lot harsher to begin with)
And yes, I brought it to Dopamineâs attention. If youâre waiting for an apology, however, youâll be waiting a long time.
And just for reference, insulted, not slandered. âincapable of readingâ. Which is obvious hyperbole, considering the medium. Unless youâre talking about discord where I did ask if you were blind. Again, pretty obvious hyperbole.
Ah yes, a minor inconvenience because you couldnât find a link is exactly the same as having your potential legal career jeopardized due to an allegation of violating an NDA agreement which youâd have to report to your stateâs bar association potentially resulting in discipline or sanctions.
Nothing like having someone running for CSM who only finds fault with others, but canât look at themselves as having done anything wrong. At this point, Iâm surprised heâs even able to play EVE with it being a PVP game. Heâs the type of person who sits at home, looking for things to be offended and mad over. Seriously dude, grow a pair and HTFU.
I have said before, publicly and privately, that there are three types of people who make for very dangerous CSM Candidates - because they derail the functions of the CSM and waste everyoneâs time:
1. Players who obsessively focus on only one or two personal agenda items to the exclusion of all else
(a strong desire to see your interests driven is a bonus, but not if you canât hear other opinions)
2. Players who are incapable of expressing civility and calm
(passion is commendable but not when you canât express your opinions without some degree of composure and observance of decorum - worse yet: belligerence, aggression, insults, or vehemence)
3. Players who are inimical to CCP Games and the other CSM Candidates
(strong convictions are great but not if you canât cooperate in a room of professionals, and not if you walk into every encounter looking for a fight or some position to âwinâ)
Unfortunately, from every evidence, Brewlar is all three.
4. Players who fail to generate good/relevant ideas or make meaningful contributions, who perceive and attempt to solve non-existent problems, who fabricate poor solutions to problems (both actual and non-existent) and/or who suggest features that do not actually enhance the game or add a new interesting dimension but are rather unnecessary or obtrusive to the existing experience - in all cases without regards to their efficacy, emergent consequences, or alternatives/counterpoints raised by the community.
(In other words, players whose mental processes are indicative of gross incompetence, stubbornness, closed-mindedness, and shortsightedness, and whose ideas are not grounded in reality)
