ITT: NAV HIV takes least charitable interpretation of every single post and runs with it, entirely missing every point they come across.

It's an election in which the CPM are totally welcome to say that they don't think most of the candidates are up to the job.
For the record, I don't think most of the candidates thus far are up to the job.

NAV HIV wrote:jenza aranda wrote:just to clarify we have a very long list of people we would love to see run, though it seems hardly any of them have shown an interest so far. Who's "WE" ?! If it is an election, then the party interested should run for the position. There are a few players i'd like to nominate, but it should up to the player if they wanna run for it. Not decided or pushed by Current CPM or CCP. Wont be much of an election then... More of a puppet and puppet master thing
It's a very simple equation wherein anyone who wants to run and is eligible can run but the CPM remain free to comment, with their being the experts in the capabilities required, on who they believe to be a good fit for the role.
What part of that is difficult? They're not proposing that they strictly choose their successors.

For the record, I don't think most of the candidates thus far are up to the job. Only Kain and Wolf has been seen trying to fix more things. Not saying much against the rest. But How do you conduct a proper election with the ruling party still in a position to influence decision?! Don't call it an election then
Lol, the ruling party.
Yeah, the CPM are kings. Gods among men, during their term. Definitely that and not the underappreciated (by playerbase and CCP), underutilised resource given a thankless job to do and then scorned at every possible opportunity when they try to do it, yet still expected to continue to work at it until their hope dies completely.
More likely that they're the most powerful players in the game.

"Just a heads up that we had a meeting this morning with CCP peeps and among other things we spoke about both CPM candidate eligibility and voter eligibility."
Yeah. You can't run if you're five years old. You can't vote 500 times from 500 alts. You can't run unless you can travel internationally.
Did you expect the election to have no rules?
Remember that part where I said you were taking the least charitable interpretation? Stop ascribing malice to totally innocent comments.

You're the only one who read it the way you did. Perhaps that's a sign you should reconsider your reading?

1 vote per unique IP address.
Good joke. There are people having multiple players in a single home sitting after NAT, some even may use the same console. Some providers also put their users under a single address and the list goes on and on...
If it was IP based I would exploit that to vote in someone terrible, just to make a point.

Maybe given a chance I could prove more suitable for consideration, but for now I am here to learn
The main thing I want is to be able to trust that these decisions are made wisely
I definitely think we need the CPM election to take into consideration that the forums are a specific subcommunity and not the be all and end all of DUST, however it's difficult to find methods of engaging en masse with the players who aren't on the forum. It's something more thought needs to be put into.
Honestly, I think we need social spaces that our mercs can interact with one another in, in game, but that's a dream for a much later date.
Keep providing input into the process, though. You're not alone in being concerned that the CPM will become a reflection of an echo-chamber which isn't in the game's best interests.
