Originally posted in features and ideas it has been suggested that this should be in this forum so I am reposting. here is the original post and a link to the http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1440598
I like several of the new ship designs and as a fully paid up member of eve I would like to join in and vote.
But...
I AM NOT AND NEVER WILL BE a member of Facebook. I object to being forced to use a third party site dedicated to data mining customers to sell advertising to vote on your competition. I strongly urge you to make your own IN-HOUSE voting system so your paying customers can use it without having to use some random third-party site many of us have a deep objection to.
Anyone else who thinks we should be able to vote without joining Facebook please sign here. Even if this doesn't effect this vote it might effect subsequent competitions.

Agreed, understand the reasoning of ccp using facebook...
ccp using facebook is not the problem itself, using facebook exclusively is the problem, what about us people who do not use social networking sites such as this, are we not allowed to vote? do we not count?

Edited by: Drake Draconis on 31/12/2010 21:13:09 Agreed.... I find it offensive being forced to use some other service that CCP could just as easily do themselves as far as voting is concerned.
After all... wth is the point of developing space book if your not going to use it?

Edited by: Windjammer on 31/12/2010 21:46:44 I could not agree more. This is far more disturbing than Real ID, as well as the objections raised by the OP. This was poorly done by CCP and is no service to the subscribers.
In point of fact this is so outrageous that the CSM should be able to pick it up without even waiting for the outcome of a vote of support in Assembly Hall. ItĘs that obvious. Further, CCP themselves should be scrambling to correct this matter without waiting. The reasons for placing the voting on facebook exclusively are very disturbing. CCP is being cheap, lazy and short sighted. They could have put the voting through their own spacebook instead of a site many of us avoid like the plague. EVE's spacebook could use the support.
Best regards, Windjammer
P.S. OP, your link is giving a 404 error message.

If the account based voting is good enough for electing CSM members, surely it is good enough for helping CCP make up their minds as to what ship model to adopt.
Failbook is is number two on my list of evil things in the world, right below politicians. Insecure (multiple hacks of their main servers the past two years alone), non-existent privacy rules, money-grubbing and ultimately useless.

I could, but I choose not to. I donĘt want a Facebook account, fake or otherwise. I pay CCP. I play EVE. I do not expect CCP to require me to sign up with an organization, Facebook, that is remarkably unethical in order to participate in an aspect of EVE.

One could also speed through a town, jump off a cliff or try to live on tofu .. doesn't mean it is wise or even legal.

I'm suprised and disappoint that CCP isn't using the same mechanism as the CSM vote.

Well said.
I was excited by the prospect of a new competition after the whole Deviant fiasco, when I saw I would be required to join facebook in order to take part I was somewhat irked.
I have taken one look at the competing entries, some very nice work there but I won't be voting. It's a shame CCP went down this route as I certainly would of voted had it actually been an "in-house" competition. |
