I am running for CSM. I am a long-term player of eve, of which almost all of my history in eve has been in nullsec Sov Space. I have fought in many great battles, and been in many great alliance, and have even bee in leadership in a few.
I am currently the ceo of a high sec corporation, and the executor of a high sec alliance. This experience has opened my eyes on just how bad high sec has been over the years, and I would love the chance to change that!
My Positions
Due to my extensive history as a game designer, I have very strong positions that are diametrically opposed to most players in eve. I will advocate for changes on things that have not been touched on (IE things that have not actually has not been changed by ccp).
Here are a few lists of things I would advocate for
Revamps of the Standings systems
Growing standings and access over time
Reworks and improvements to corporation/alliance creation
Including new logoās
Removal of tickers (they are just annoying part in the creation process)
new uinque options in alliance, and corporate structures including
Democracy: The ability for everyone in the corp to vote (with out shares): votes for democratic leadership shifts every 3 months. Votes that allow for mechanical changes to the system (like limited number of terms in a row).
Oligarchy: Founded by 1 leader who can give ācouncil memberā to 4 others (a replacement to director). These individuals alone vote.
Dictatorship: As it works now.
Shares converted to standalone system and more functionality included, including
A new display option on the corporate info panel that shows āshares return rateā to demonstrate how often a ceo will recall shares.
Smaller reworks of mining systems.
including making ice and gas accessible in high sec, and low sec more commonly
War Declaration changes Growing war eligibility based on a growth over time standing system which will open up corporations to build stations but not be war eligible
Removal of criminal actions in high sec
by removing the ability to do any criminal weapons attack (suicide ganking) in high security space.
by removing insurance payouts in low sec when criminally flagged.
Fixing other work-arounds players have created to get around the intended design of the game.
by finding fixes, or advocating for philosophical changes to the games identity to stop local spam-scammers, and the likes.
Stabilizing the resources, and income of the game
high sec income between 60 and 80 million an hour (exception being incursions, or abyssal)
Low sec income between 80-100 million an hour
WH/Null sec income between 100-120 mllion an hour
Capital Changes
Removal of capital ships ability to target sub-capitals with direct targeting, and potential changes to the capitals to buff aoe smart bomb ranges or look into creation of similar mechanics that do not require direct attack but give capitals limited ability to protect themselves against sub-capitals.
Creation of capital ship specific encounters in null, wormhole space, and low security space (player caps vs npc capitals) This will set the income of capitals between 120-150, and open them up to attack to sub-capitals once again placing them in balance of each other.
Reworks to the way reactions, and inventions work
Promised by ccp long ago, we needed this to be simplified.
Reworks to abyssal
expanding the timer to 30 minutes for death
creating a 20 minute timer that provides isk bonus for completion in that period
Level 1, 5 Million + 10 Million for each additional level
you should be rewarded for good behavior, not just punished for bad
In all of the games content, i would like to make it so that grouping is more encouraged and ideal for players by introducing buffs to grouping for players to do things together, rather then being punished
Examples of this would be
Bonus isk and LP for doing ratting, missions, mining, etc together.
reworks of current game mechanics to help facilitate such things.
ā¦ a liar, who claims to be from 2003, while not being willing to back it up.
ā¦ a liar, who claims to be from 2003, while his first post claims heās a new player.
ā¦ a self proclaimed game developer, who not once shows any sign that he really is one.
ā¦ a self proclaimed game developer, who not once shows any evidence of him being one.
For all of the above there is proof to be found on the forums and Iāve made screenshots, to make sure you canāt just edit it all away. The guy above is a hater. Everyoneās free to go through his posting history, add 1 and 1 together to figure out that heād be nothing but a serious disturbance.
Those of us who remember Ankhesentapemkah know exactly how this is going to work out.
Hahahahahahahahhahahabahbabababa,
Thatās a good one, 0/10 troll.
You arenāt wanting to make āsubstantial changesā to eve, you are wanting an entirely new game.
Since you are such a fantastic game designer, you should put your vision in motion in your own game. Look at how much money Star Citizen has made on kick starter. Iām sure you will do well
You do know that csm members have to make their real life identity known, so your claim about being an developer will become clear. I and propably others for will back you up for this reason alone.
Ps. Dont dismiss me as a troll, as you have made it clear that your real life experience is part of your csm campaing and csm candidates should be abel to engage voters in conversation.
Before I ask you any specific question on your campaign, I first wanted to ask you a question about the CSM white paper:
In particular, the section on āCandidate Requirementsā which states:
CCP employees, ISD volunteers, CCP interns, CCP affiliates, CCP strategic partners or employees of other gaming companies/gaming media and family members of CCP are all ineligible to run for the CSM. In cases were an active CSM delegate becomes involved in any of the above activities they must resign from the Council.
Given you have claimed on this forums that you work professionally as a game developer, do you meet these requirements? If you do currently meet the requirements, are you willing/able to decline work in the gaming industry for a whole year to serve out your whole term?
I am not currently employed, and i am not interested in working for other gaming studioās at the moment. I am working on personal projects but i am uncertain to their release dates as of yet. So i do not think these points in the (obsolete) white paper are an issue.
If for some reason i do take on such roles i will resign, but i do not think its likely at the moment just because i have been inconsistent of late with the work on my personal projects.
I am quite curious still about what successful and long lasting games he has worked on? He refused to comment on it in the past citing off topic, he canāt use that excuse now.
I have a game that is close to alpha stages, but i have not been working on it. Iv been preoccupied by my mother who is having issues with her heart while battling cancer.
Enough of the discussions about me. Im growing tired of them. You guys are being childish. Either your dev alts, or your egotistical children trying to prevent eve from gaining anti-egotistical changes.
I got a lot of votes stacking up by the way, are you read for change?
At this point i am just going to auto-flag any post that is about me and my personal life. I try to be kind by inviting you to know some about it but you guys just play stupid games.
Grow up, or we can play this by the book and iāll just report every infraction you do on these forums, and the admins will be left with no choice but to eventually remove you from it
show me one csm that gets as much personal life attention as me. your a straight liar. whats worse about it is you really dont care your just trying to discredit me to keep abusing players in the game, and that just makes you 2-3 pathetic. btw, got a good number of votes already ready.
He is public figure and already is exposed to the public eye.
His proof was already there, willingly and publicly.
If you have worked on popular games as you have made the claim, your name is already in the credits of the games so revealing what you have worked on isnāt a big deal. Unless you havenāt.
