If CSM Summits become online events, that problem goes away.

Now you are campaigning in my campaign thread.

Yet another ethical breach.

It won’t become _online events_, because as mentioned by people, talking through a screen and talking to a face is completely different…

Just like you’d probably never talk ■■■■ to anyone if they were in your face. (Like most of ag on the forums)

You are making claims that are simply not true. As for “stop” - this is a public forum.

It’s clear that players were fine with my advertising, as they elected me.

‘CSM summits are a vacation! Moving them online to be just like the other 50 weeks the CSM is in session will fix that!’  
‘They’re not a vacation, dude, they’re a pain in the rear for the people who have to go.’

‘CSM summits are a pain in the butt! Moving them online to be just like the other 50 weeks the CSM is in session will fix that!’

Self-contradictory much?

Let me be clear here: I’m not saying ‘don’t run’. I want you to run. I want as many people as possible to be engaged and invested in the process, to have an interest and to work to advance that interest. That’s how the system is designed to function.

I just want you to run _competently_. If you get past the ‘CCP says you can run’ stage (and you may not, because abolishing the CSM isn’t an issue the CSM has any input into, and that’s 90% of your platform here), then the scrutiny I, Brisc, and others have been subjecting you to here is _nothing_ compared to what happens when the people who are actively engaged every year take notice of you.

Welcome to politics. Ask Creecher if anyone wears gloves when the punches start flying.

Nope because they are all locked up inside a psychiatric hospital. @Salvos_Rhoska was too but unfortuantely for us he got out. They are currently printing his picture on milk cartons with a number you can call if you’ve spotted him in the wild.

Ive dealt with trolls for years, here and elsewhere.

3 sitting CSM starting trolling here, I did not expect.

That was surprising, but I should have seen it coming, as my platform undermines them and is to reach those/represent those dissatisfied with the CSM program whom have been ignoring them for years on end.

Now they will have a voice and representative, in me.

If I can mobilize them to vote for me, to change CSM system, or disband it if neccessary, I will get CSM seat with the most votes of any CSM, ever, easily.

Thats how bad CSM reputation has got with the playerbase at large.

Asking questions and disagreeing with the stuff you say doesn’t make anyone a troll

Refusing to answer those questions, deflecting, attacking people because of them not agreeing tho, that’s not acceptable for someone wanting to join the CSM @Salvos_Rhoska

Maybe you should hire a spokesperson to verify everything you want to send on here _cough_

I answer questions.  
If you dont like the answers, thats your problem.

Nor will you ever vote for me. Your entire post history is just trolling me.

Most CSM representatives reflect large blocks of players or multiple blocks of player. This is how they were able to attain enough votes to be elected to the CSM. Do you believe there is enough voting players who support the elimination/reduction/drastic change of the CSM that you are a proponent of?

And if so, where do you get these numbers from?

I previously linked a very educational YouTube video and if you have watched it I will ask again this way;  
Who are your proposed “Keys to Power”?

You might have 7k+ posts, but when 90% of them are of no value whatsoever, it shows a ton about your M-O

I do believe so.

But reaching them will be hard, as will convincing them that I am finally the candidate they can vote for to represent their dissatisfaction.

This made even harder by the fact I will be, and already am, trolled/attacked from existing vested interest CSMs and their supporters.

I will try. Im confident the voters are out there as a majority, atleast sufficient to get me elected to do this, but that is a struggle to reach them, and the hardest part comes only after that, to change CSM or to disband it.

No, that is not in the White Paper.

Nor is my IQ less than my shoe size.

And its “council”, not councel.

And if your post above isnt trolling…
