Edited by: Khamelean on 13/07/2011 09:03:55 ooh ooh, shall we play "Antagonise the fringe lunatics" or "Marginalise the whiny babies"?
So many ways to play. That's why I love eve :)
EDIT: To the OP, which are you? fringe lunatic or whiny baby? Only way you could possibly be offended is if you fit in to one of those categories and feel marginalised/antagonised by mittins' statement.

4/4ths of the non-American player base hasn't got a clue what you are on about?
Not true - I can for example tell you that the Tea Party are a bunch of looney toon soccer mums who'd rather believe 'facts' they make up themselves to fit their own ideals rather than what could be reasonably proven.
But whether there anything more to them than that I dunno. Besides EVE is not the best place to talk politics, even of the bat**** nuts kind.

if you really want cheap monocles so badly go for second life.
i'd rather shrug at designer g-string thongs for 10 plex worth of aurum. if that helps to pay for devs to get 0.0 fixes sooner.

Edited by: Ramma Lamma DingDong on 13/07/2011 09:42:28 Educated, intelligent Americans (granted it may seem as if there are few of them) don't take the teabaggers seriously at all.
I mean come on, it's a party that supports people such as Michelle Bachman, a candidate who doesn't know the difference between John Wayne and John Gacy and who along with her husband runs a clinic that "converts" homosexuals.
She warned us all that The Lion King was "g a y" propoganda. She claimed abolishing the minimum wage would create jobs. She called Carbon Dioxide, "harmless." She suggested that Melissa Ethridge, a well known lesbian artist "repent" after getting cancer.
Sadly, there is a portion of American society that buys a ticket to ride this crazy train but the majority are just watching and waiting for the inevitable crash. The Republicans bought a ticket early on and are currently trying to get off at the next stop after realizing the depth of the crazy (and believe me, it is deep.)

I think the csm is probably as out of touch and deluded as some of the ccp staff who feel $1000+ are needed as a micro transaction in a spaceship game

The csm represents 14 out of every 100 eve players as that is the percentage that voted.
no more, no less.
I didnt vote because as far as I can tell, like all politicians everywhere the CSM primarily serves first itself, then CCP and lastly the players.
so in short it doesnt matter if you have no confidence in them - what are you going to do? replace them with another group of people that 86 out of every 100 eve players dont care about, who will be just the same as the current CSM?
let them get on with it, in the end you either like EvE and pay or you dont and you dont!

Sounds like we need an electoral reform candidate for the next CSM election. I wonder if the character name Nick Clegg is taken...

The protesters should feel lucky if they're even remotely as relevant as the Tea Party.

The CSM represents enough of the people who actually bothered to make a few clicks to vote. No vote, no relevance. _

Seriously think about what your saying! what do u want to do replace the CSM members? theyre prob the most organised, comunative group weve had, not trying to belittle any past CSM's. Or do you want to get rid of the CSM completely? where would that leave us? this thread fails.

Lmao.
This communities entitlement complexes have gone off the charts since you all whined and stomped your feet about the Monacles and 'Protested in Jita' a bloobloobloo.
The more people make threads like this the more I want CCP to put things like pay2win in the game so you will actually leave and stop pretending you're going too.
Thread is dumb, OP is dumb.

He didn't compare the CSM to pedophiles, he just pointed out that you didn't need to vote or be in the CSM to voice you opinion, and proved it using an example of a social group which few belong to but most have an opinion about.

The CSM along with you has a right to their opinions. While I disagree with insulting the players who left I do not see how it constitutes a vote of no confidence. It shows you take something CCP has done for you for granted, they didnt have to create the CSM you know. Just shows you identify perfectly with the insane Tea Party. Those Americans are completely clueless as to how Government functions. Please, Leave the Jesus Freaks and Bachmann Bots out of Eve.

Well, he didn't compare CSM with pedos. And secondly, how about you as CSM make a comment on the actual subject matter since your obviously reading it.

Originally by: mkint Who cares about confidence in the CSM? It's CCP I have no confidence in. When (not if) CCP fails, nothing the CSM does will be able to save them.
Also, the only thing relevant about the TP (toilet paper party?) is what their existence implies about the state of America. Their philosophies and policies are just Republicans in khaki's, nothing revolutionary or even interesting. Bringing them up as an argument as to why CCP and the CSM are incompetent is an absolute failure of an argument.
Since the CSM is suppose to be a bridge between CCP and the players, what is the point of that bridge being just one way?
lol i lost my confidence in the CSM ever since Darius III found it funny to use his position to scam people for votes.
Just stop voting on the CSM next time, the amount of votes they have are a joke anyways.

All the hallmarks of illusory superiority and continuous failure to recognise the extend of their incompetence.
The current CSM is a text book definition of the Dunning Kruger effect.
