Edited by: Omber Zombie on 22/03/2008 16:23:52Since so many people seem to want to post about this, I decided to make a post that combines all the random threads so that everyone has a 'one stop shop' when trying to follow it all. If you've made a post and want it linked here (in case I missed it), let me know and I'll add it in. I'll also add in a brief summary of the initial post/discussion topic. Mods, feel free to sticky this Council of Scapegoat Management by DigitalCommunist CSM is pointless, we should get all the alliances to submit what they think is good Council Of Stellar Management by Sopha Serpentia What is it? Is it just a marketing ploy? political council by gramb0 It's just publicity, how can one person represent all the different pirates? Council is a stupid idea, here is a better one... by Asuka Smith Poll people instead of electing a council passport for council is silly? by Shananigan Why do we need a passport to nominate? Eve political parties, or lobby groups needed? by Uilliam Nebel We should be voting for political parties rather than individuals CSM Campaign Finance Laws by Herschel Yamamoto Introduction of laws to limit how much people spend on influencing the vote CSM, The Silent Majority Needs A Voice by Zaphroid Eulthran looking for a High sec champion to back The main issue for a CSM candidate? by Uilliam Nebel Empire Vs. Lowsec Screw the 'Council of steller Awesomeness' by 000Hunter000 Eve is not a democracy, one person sould not have more power than another The Goon Party, Surely impossible? (CSM) by Benilopax goons can't stack the Council Suggestions on Multiple Aspects of the CSM, Both for CCP and all of Us by Crovan Ideas and suggestions on how to make the CSM work a little better CSM - More of the same or a chance for great change? by Nyabinghi Breaking down issues into small/medium/large A thought on CCP's document for the CSM. And reasons for the CSM. by Uilliam Nebel The CSM is a good thing and a sensible next step for the EVE community, but before it can do much good the community is going to have to grow up a bit and appreciate each other more. (Tarminic summarised it for me) The Council of Stellar Management - Candidate Infozone by Winterblink Centralized thread of candidate information Council of Yes Men. CCP bang a gong for lip service. by Le Skunk CSM is pointless and they lied to the media CCP, The Council Of Stellar Management, And You. by Verone Agreeing with Le Skunk, but giving CCP the benefit of doubt and asking some very valid questions |

Thanks for gathering all these together, makes it so much easier to follow. I'll imagine as the elections get closer, we may actually see the topic get it's own forum. |

I love how various people seem to be going off on tangents concearning how the CSM will be in the pocket of some big alliance or whatnot.
... It's as though they haven't actually sat down and read the PDF, which in all likelihood... They Haven't.
More's the pitty...

Great idea to put everything in one place OZ. And as Gideon says, a lot of the FUD about the CSM is the result of lack of knowledge about it. Please, if you're going to rant, have an intelligent opinion and be prepared to back it up! Sticky Please!  |

I'm not largely in favor of the CSM, but there is one thing that can be said for it over what happened with SWG. No one knew anything about those "focus groups" before SOE released its decisions, and afterwards no one seemed able to find someone who had been a part of such a focus group. At least the CSM appears to be a real effort. |

Bit of a crosspost, but since this is the "Amalgamated" thread thought I would include my concerns. My post in the Dev thread Originally by: Treelox Is there a quorum requirement or minimum vote requirment to make this election even valid or for a canidate to "win" a spot?
I ask this because judging by current intrest it seems that so far the whole CSM concept is not getting very much "positive" response from the Forum masses. Since we know that those active on the forums is roughly 10% of the total eve population base, this could mean that this elected body would be representive of 5% or even less of the total player base. Not exactly a good representive sample at all.
If such apathy continues, I can see some of the "less popular" canidates winning their position with low triple digit votes, which out of +200,000 active accounts is really sad.
Maybe I am wrong, maybe not, but if intrest in this new standard of Dev and Player base interaction does turn out to be very low, what does CCP plan on doing with the player base that is disenfranchised by the whole process, ignore them?

You and me both, it would be helpful to have an area we could announce that we are running, until then I'll just link everything from the eve forums here and you can use Blinky's thread to put your outside of eve forum information. oh, and updated. |

This thread is an irreplaceable resource for the CSM topic... well, until an actual forum is made. Good luck with your campaign, Omber. I'm glad to see the dedication, effort and interest. |

no probs man, it's just without an official forum heaps of threads are popping up, mostly with great information in them and this way it might be a little easier locating them all instead of trawling through the forums.
and remember, if you find a threa dnot linked here (or create one), post it here and i'll link it up |
