True or false? __________

i mean, it makes sense that they would want to talk in person instead of online, so nothing would get leaked.

lol yeah, because they listen to the CSM so much these days. If it's true its undoubtly be a PR strategy instead of real good intentions. If I was CSM I would tell them to go FTS

If I were a CSM, I wouldn't report to Iceland. The way this Himmler guy talks, he obviously isn't actually connected to reality at all. I would be very afraid of why that guy would want me in the same room as him.

Only thing I have to say is that no CSM has really been heard from since the EVE-Radio show on the EVE forums or on twitter to my knowledge nor have blogged to my knowledge.
They may have posted on FHC forums, but I don't check there.

It makes absolutely no sense. Why would CCP have them make a trip to Iceland? I mean a video conference call is the norm if you want a meeting across the globe these days. BTW folks CSMs are not CCP employees but player elected representatives with real world lives much like the rest of it. I know there is no way I could drop everything and make a trip (even expenses paid) to Iceland for a meeting with a company who does not pay my bills.

Not sure why it'd matter. CCP has never given much heed or power to the CSM. CSM are only there to give we, the players, a feeling like we are represented in CCP's eyes. I don't recall the last time (or any time) CCP actually listened to the CSM in earnest.

Why would they?
Its obvious that CCP don't really take our concerns seriously.
If this had the remotest chance of being true, they would have said the CSM is coming in to talk as a form as damage control.
I find it far more likely that its the weekend, and they don't really care.

If I were in CSM I don't think I'd want to talk to CCP anymore. They made their opinion of the players crystal clear. The only thing CSM is going to hear is spin and BS from Failmar.

I seriously doubt they sold enough Monocles to support sending all of them to Iceland for a meeting.

Or they are bringing them in to make a tell them a bunch of lies again to quell the rebellion.
Only for CCP to proceed as planned as soon as they dust settles.

Don't go to Iceland. It's probably a manhunt. Failmar is probably going to put you in an interrogation room to weed out who leaked the stuff out. He already said ignore the players so the logical deduction is they want the CSM there for investigations into the breach of CCP's secrets

Did you miss where I said that it was being talked about as a rumor? I didn't say it was true - that it was in fact... a rumor.

CSM going to Iceland? Don't know and don't care.
For the love of god people don't fool yourself into thinking the CSM was/is or will ever be more than a CCP PR stunt.

Even if CCP were to "call" the CSM to Iceland, some of them may have more important things that can't be simply dropped. Like their jobs. CSM isn't a paying position, y'know, although the travel package is nice.
If a sudden "emergency" summit were planned, I don't think it'd be for at least a few days to two weeks so that the delegates can arrange things with family/employers. Outside of a medical emergency, you can't just ditch out on your job.(Note: Pann, I hope your daughter is doing well.)

I doubt this rumor very seriously.
Like has been said above, for this to be true:
1. It would mean that the CSM is anything more than an ongoing PR gimmick for CCP. 2. That CCP cares what its current customer base wants, thinks, or demands. 3. That anyone of consequence from CCP is actually WORKING on the weekend and paying attention to this and/or us. 4. That the CSM isn't already bought and paid for with "Free Stuffs" from CCP. 5. That the CSM, whether working directly on behalf of CCP's interests or not, actually CARES about the community as a whole.
Obviously, I am not convinced of any of these things, and highly doubt most of them.

I would hope the CSM'ers would decline the invitation as well. The CSM are people that want to help, but CCP refuses to utilize them. The CSM wanted to help repair the Zulupants dev blog and they wanted CCP to directly address the primary concern of the players, but none of this happened.
I respect the desire of the CSM to help Eve, but I also feel sorry for them. They've been put in the unfortunate position of being PR figureheads that are just as sidelined as the rest of us. They, and we, deserve better.

Actually, there's a slight problem with that. In that Iceland doesn't have an army, at all. They have a "navy" in the sense that they own a couple of small lightly armed frigates for cargo inspections on ship coming in, but that's about it.
The last military presence on the island was the US army base in the north, which has been mothballed.

Seems plausible. How else are they going to receive the coaching to ômanage player expectationsö while in a semi controlled environment? All fully covered by an NDA, of course.
In the end, who cares? CCP treats the CSM just about the same way they treat the rest of the players. ItÆll all blow over, right? It doesnÆt matter what the players say. It matters what the players do. Unless people do something, CCP will just wait to let things cool a bit and then continue to do what they want. IsnÆt that what HilmarÆs letter laid out?

well ccp can talk to CSM all they want, but unless ccp takes real actions to correct their mistakes theyr going to loose.
After all trade hub riots are not lead by CSM, they spring up as spontanious answer to ccps Up your blogs.
