I recently did an Interview with one of my hardest critics, who also started the bounty hunt. I think it is a good statement to publish here, however, I want to add this little sentence:
I am very careful with proposals. I don’t want to build my campaign around stuff like that. I think people should feel that I love the universe and that I take my part in it serioulsy as I will take the CSM position serious. 
(Expand) Summary of Archer en Tilavine’s interview of Komi Valentine
Archer: How many other characters are you currently playing with alongside Komi, and what kinds of activities are they doing?
Komi [OOC]: I have my old character on the same account + an alt (2012). At the moment I’m just using my old characters for PI. I want to focus on Komi and drive her story. I have created a second account for RP-Alts, I just use them for RP-reasons and they are alphas.
Komi’s CSM Platform and Positions
Lore/RP Enhancement and Game Immersion
- Address Lore inconsistencies (eg. regarding Minmatar magic elders)
- Show and link World News / ISD Articles / Scope Videos in-game
- Introduce lore guide/library in-game (eg. timeline)
- Introduce thematic lore elements to FW in-game such as freighters full of slaves warping away
- Introduce Bloodline/Tribe specific skins in addition to faction SKINs (eg. right now there is only one ship with a Vherokior SKIN even though it is only one of three playable races)
- Introduce bloodline apparel
- Push for more faction apparel as well as headwear and tattoos
- Introduce portal for direct submission of creative content (SKINs, apparel, stories for lore inclusion, etc)
- Create some civil shuttles (you can’t interact with them, they just warp from gate to station)
- Show maintenance drones flying around stations
- Discuss possibly bringing back and expanding the ability to walk in stations
- Wrecks should not suddenly disappear after salvaging. It’s silly that a battleship instantly disappears after salvaging one “Charred Micro Circuits”
- Increase input requirements of Upwell structures
- Split Upwell structures into four functionally identical racial variants each to enhance Lore
PVE
- Dynamically generated mission sites
- Dynamically generated Exploration sites – static sites don’t feel like “exploration”
- Adaptive AI (esp. on Rogue Drones)
- AI that competes for resources the same way players do
Active role in CSM
- CSM currently acts as an “echo chamber” – focus on countering ideas that negatively affect baseliners
- There are a lot of ideas raised on the forums and Discords I’m in (TIS, UK, RIP, DammFam, Matari, ARC, etc) that I agree with, and I’ll want to advance those ideas
Archer: You received an endorsement from Ferra Orta, one of the directors of Ushra’Khan. How do you know him? From publicly known information, that is an extremely unlikely endorsement to have! Do you know him out-of-game? Or…?
Komi: Ferra contacted me some months ago, we have done some business. That’s all. [And OOC we share some discords and stuff…]
Archer: A large number of players (RPers and non-RPers) are suggesting you are a hypocrite for leaving CONCORD’s protection in Hisec to get Ushra’Khan’s protection in nullsec, where they are perceived to be vicious and lawless/criminal by many (not me personally). How will you justify these actions RP-wise, especially since there does not appear to be an apparent connection (RP-wise) between Komi and Ushra’Khan/Ferra Orta, or any reason why they should give you amnesty at all. I think it is safe to say that if Ferra wasn’t your friend OOC, they’d have killed you themselves!
Komi: CONCORD simply could not provide protection for me. They would have blown up anybody who engaged me illegally, but they are not responsible for my personal safety. I knew of at least one smartbombing ship that waited for me, so I had to flee in a Probe that wasn’t even fully fitted and I soon found myself stranded deep in nullsec. It just happened that I was close to Ushra’Khan space, so I asked for help and they sent a fleet from Amamake to rescue me. The other RPers calling them criminals don’t seem to understand the concept of Ushra’Khan’s alliance Tag.
If I didn’t ask them for help, or if I hadn’t proven myself before, they might have killed me, but they are honorable and there are things worth more than ISK. I have shown my good will to the Minmatar people.
Archer: What are your thoughts, feelings, or comments on The Hunt up to this point in time?
Komi [OOC]: I think the hunt is an event that really fits into eve. Bounties in Eve are kind of meaningless right now, but since the hunt would end up in a biomassed character that someone really cares about, it would probably give a great feeling of accomplishment to the person that claims it, being the ONE that managed to take the target down. As a target it was giving me a lot of accomplishment, too. Dealing with blackmails, managing to escape a prison. However, I could feel it interrupt my gameplay a little since I was stranded in Nullsec and couldn’t return to my BPC-“business” and production. It was actually a little sad that the bounty didn’t seem to motivate anyone following me into Nullsec. I did not ever think the hunt was unfair or a bad move, but the one thing you could improve is not taking in game events to a personal level. “Egomaniacal RPer” is a personal attack and it really hurt me a little after all the work I had done for my campaign and all the future work I prepared for. So that was kind of a dick move. Whatever, it proves that Eve can be much fun and inspiration ^_^. For sure it has been a good RP opportunity!
