Mainly because - no offence - it doesn’t actually do anything.

Answering you guys suggestions or complaints about things that aren’t huge concerns and CCP is unlikely to change is effectively just me doing community management work for CCP, rather than actually getting things done on the CSM to make the game better - Such as the wardec changes, April capital and balance changes, and the push to get the Rorqual economic genie back in the bottle.

All of those required me to be inwardly focused and communicating closely with CCP, rather than the outside community, in order to write breakdowns and analysis which would be conducive to those ends.

I appreciate that you feel the CSM should be a responsive, political body, which regularly engages with you on a daily-weekly basis in order to show we care for your concerns - and I did that for a while, as I agree it would be a good thing to have.

However, quite frankly, ■■■■ doing that for free. I have better things to do with my life, and limited time to spend on the CSM. I’d rather be trying my best to advocate for changes than telling you guys I am doing such so I can have the privilege of arguing with you other whether I’m doing enough.
