+1. Good points and well written. Another great set of criteria for CPM candidates.
I support SP rollover.

I've yet to find anyone I want to vote for (which is bad because I've told other players that if I couldn't find someone I wanted to vote for, let alone seven representatives, I would wind up running myself...). I certainly know more about what I don't want in a candidate than what I do want.
What I would like to see in a candidate is someone that doesn't fall into the usual non-sense of "I will represent everyone in the community". This is, to put it bluntly, bullshit. It is impossible to do this and if you don't believe me try delegating any AV vs Tank argument at any stage of Dust 514's lifespan.
I don't want a candidate that will be vocal as hell during election season and then absolutely silent after elected. If I wanted this, I'd look toward the CSM for my candidates.
I don't want a candidate that is a push-over but at the same time I don't want a candidate that will stubbornly stick to their beliefs no matter what is provided as evidence to them. This isn't to say that all evidence provided is 100% irrefutable and factual but it should at least cross the candidate for consideration before they retort with their counter argument.
I don't want a candidate that is "an advocate for 'x'". Seriously, if you're playing the role of advocate for scouts... or heavies... or tankers... You're not free-form enough to represent the community as a whole and will probably be bias against that playstyle's counters, despite what you may say.
I don't want a candidate that is vindictive toward "flavor of the month" players or players from "district locking" corporations. If you're bias against a certain group due to short-comings in the game's mechanics you're on a sure path to bias when presented information later on. Players should not feel punishment for taking advantage of what the game has to offer at the time, this is like getting angry at people who take advantage of coupons at a grocery store.
Just a few things I feel rather strongly about. /shrug

*Communicates with the player base - Doesn't even have to be about CPM things just be active.
*Actually play the game - I know that CPM doesn't require much out of playing the game but this ties more into the previous point.
*Be familiar with the game - ties into the last two post.
*Have EVE/lore knowledge
*Have common sense - A need for any figure.
*Know what an FPS players want while knowing when to stay away from generic fps simplification.
*Have a sense of Humor. - Some of these people are like the digital manifestation of Hank Hill on these forums.
Nice list.
I think the sense of humor is dead on. Call me fanboy or whatever but I think patients is needed also, sometimes the rush to do something is very intense.
An understanding that the NDA is there for a reason.
I am more looking for a group than an individual. The group needs to work together smoothly and be able, as a whole, to touch every part of the game.

Someone looking for balance, and ensuring that there is a suit for every playstyle and a role for every suit.
I would like to see an end to the days when a logi can do everything better than the suits intended for specific roles can.
Looking for the scout hangout?

I see a lot of current CPMs that have fewer than 1 mil lifetime warpoints and under 2.0 KDRs, then wonder how they could have any grasp of what needs changing in DUST when they clearly spend 90% of their free time trolling the forums and 10% in game.
You do realize most of us have alts right?

Representing us has to be a hard job because everyone cries about everything. The changes CCP makes seem rooted in some far off ideal that we just don't see in-game. I do not feel represented beyond what I do myself on the forums and with support tickets.
I would be looking for a representative that has some transparency. Not that they can show us the results of their efforts. They could however show us the means they are using to represent us and participate more in the community. If this is a sham at least we could see the wasted effort and that would earn my respect.
Now look here, had you been paying any attention what-so-ever, you'd know we'd been batting for a respec in 1.8. If CCP Says no its no and there is nothing you me and we the CPM can really do about it because there may be reasons well above and beyond everyone's control including CCP on making things happen.

The whole CPM thing needs to be purged with fire considering they support respecs.

I'd like to take the time right now, while I'm at work mind you, to take some time out of your playing and join the chat chsnnel in my signature. Then when I'm online, which I am quiet a lot and in many timezones prime times' squad up with myself or the other candidates and actually talk to us. I myself will make the time to play with you, the community so you can at least get to know me a bit.
If after you get to know me a bit and ask questions and you don't like who I am or what type of person I am, then by all means, don't vote for me, but I bet you will want me representing you after we hang out.
Feel free adding me on Skype as well, I'd love to talk to any of you, even face to face in a video chat if you'd like. My Skype is Moss-Delt
I understand I can't get to the whole community this way, but I'd like to do my best in that manner.
Join the Channel - CPM1 Candidates - Get to know who's running.

Someone who plays, someone invested in Dust, someone who thinks the players actually deserve a voice.
I want someone who actually fights for feedback and listens to the playerbase when we give feedback. I want them to stop CCP from not listening, stop leaving things unchanged despite feedback.
I want them to be willing to fight CCP on behalf of the players, not lay down and and only be in it for the trip to Iceland. |

Anyone that can perhaps make some guys at CCP, like, google a tutorial on game design, maybe?
Failing that somebody who can send them a link to the videos by the Extra Credits folks. That'd be a start. 
On a more serious note, as far as I'm aware, there are few opportunities for community feedback via CPM as long as CCP's internal processes lack the required quality. Maybe I'd vote for someone who doesn't have idealistic views of the CPM's capabilities, then. |

Someone whose not garbage(decent player)
Someone whose got a lot of SP to get proto stuff and run it ALOT.
Someone whose preferably in a PC corp, but thats not mandatory really.
But MOST IMPORTANTLY-
Someone who ISN'T biased, as in he won't complain that railguns are OP because he flies dropships. He won't say tanks aren't OP because he runs madrugars. He won't say PC is broken because he can't get in. He won't say the RR is OP because he uses the CR.
Someone who will say "I run this as my main, not my alt suit/wep/whatever but I run it ALL the time, and I can say its OP for X,Y, and Z, and I would like to know if the community shares these thoughts and believe its worth pushing CCP for over these other issues of X,Y, and Z"
Your post is making me facepalm very hard right now.

I admire the hard line you're taking on this. I've bucked myself, and i hate myself for it - but i hate CCP more ;)
I support SP rollover.
