DUST Search - Let's talk dust: Why the hate for CPM & Mintchip?

Ahh finally a thread i can feel home within

1 - Mintchip isnt that bad really, i was wrong to cus her out in my (much requested to return) video that was pretty unfair about her. I think she has done well in CCP and seems to be pushing for better comms et al. Its hard to have much of a hate for her (aka shes doing a good job from what i see)

2 - The CPM however arnt - CCP don't support them with either a framework of communication or restraint at the 'holier than thou' attitudes many possess. The CPM was always going to be a hard thing to swing in a FPS gun game when compared to the armchair fleet commanders that EVE has and frankly when someone tells me to 'better educate myself' so my opinions perhaps morph to theirs, that's red rag to a bull as there are much more diplomatic ways to say this, especially when given the position they occupy, they should know better.

Hubris and ego have toppled the CPM in my opinion and cant wait to mess with the elections as best i can to get a budgerygar (bird) named 'Derek' to be elected and see how they handle it. (i predict a marked improvement tbh)

Hate him or like him, You will always see IWS here. Partly cause I think he's homeless and lives in his Mercs MQ. but mostly cause he's a tough SOB who grinds in the forums. It came from a our tour in nam. (battlefield Vietnam) when did you guys play together?... I don't know mintchip, and tho I've mentioned at times that she might be part of a larger conspiracy with all the other girls in dust about knowing what happen to my socks, I think she's your average gamer/blogger. I've gotten mail from some here to tone down my "attacks" about certain MMO games. Cause she apparently plays em, and I might be insulting her, But she's a big girl. And If she found something insulting a "stop it surt" will stop me. I sometimes say my opinion on something without regards to those that enjoy it. Whether any of them believe it or not, my intent is never to bully. sometime? Shut up. anyway, the divide between you and the jedi council and mintchip is not that large as you may think. and in the end it's just of personal taste in a hobby we all have in common. games.

They are here to point out big talking points in the community, I see them more as a good version of a prision snitch! Hey CCP have you seen that thread on such-and-such? Except IWS sometimes makes his own threads. Like the TTK one was the last one I saw, I think Waiting on PvE Balancing without core content is a fail "Don't chu go disrespecting coconut water!"

If I ever said anything negative about her, it was only to test the limits of her invulnerability. ¶Gêƒ__ Gò« Gû¿GûêGûêGûêGòáGëíGëíGëíGû¬ « GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GÇó GåÆFAT GATGåÉ pÇûGûôGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæGûæpÇùForum Warrior LV 1 (NEXT: 100/1000XP) ¯Gò¦pÇôpÇù

Poplo Furuya Condotta Rouvenor Gallente Federation 723	Posted - 2013.11.18 15:36:00 - [39] - Quote It's quite simple, really. Dust is flawed and has had plenty time and little enough variety to become stale. Why? Comprehensively answering that question is time consuming, also effort, when we could just band together and burn some effigies, bask in the blaze and make a night of it. CPM are a group, groups are easily hated by looking at the least-liked member and perceiving them as representative of the whole. Mintchip is a Community Relation something-or-other for a community that has felt ignored. The fuel's there, all that's needed is a spark.

They were just chosen. This is what gets me really confused, how can someone represent the players if they never voted for them The CPM that you see right now are just a preliminary set of representative. They were elected by CCP directly for at least their involved with the community. They were also selected based on what the community (at the time) felt about them. Back then, the vast majority of the community had no problem seeing them as representatives. Some people actually mentioned that they were alright seeing me become a CPM member but I turned that down because I'm just not the kind of guy to get involved at that level. At least not yet. But don't worry. There will come a time when we finally start to elect our own players. CCP, thank you for hotfixing the knives. But please make sure they're at their full potential in 1.7.

Rasatsu Much Crying Old Experts 917	Posted - 2013.11.18 15:45:00 - [41] - Quote Alaika Arbosa wrote: I am betting most of the Mintchip haters are secretly crushing on her. You know how most all teenage boys are when they find a girl on the internet and with the average maturity of your typical console FPS player, is it any wonder why they haven't progressed beyond the whole pulling pigtails phase? Now, the grown men that play Eve? IDK what their excuse is but I'd imagine it has something to do with the alleged "pics for ISK" goings on. I haven't really formed an opinion on her, she's just another human seeking internet fame through youtube who happened to get picked up by CCP as a Community Reps (which, IMHO, she could be doing a better job of but this by no means a reason to hate her). There's a bit more to the situation that that... But hey, I like my accounts~ Only time will convince us if she's good or bad at the job.

I kinda understand the former on some levels, though it seems to be taken to extremes, but why the latter? CPM are GÇª.
