My point is that if you want to maintain economic balance between two games where ISK will eventually flow freely, ISK flowing to one has to roughly match the ISK flowing back to the other. And since items have value that is exchanged for that ISK, the items flowing from one to the other need to also make a return trip. By ensuring the bulk of the value is brought from DUST to EVE, and then from EVE back to DUST, the balance is preserved. That's economics.

Did I miss questions in my thread? I'll have to go back and look.

To be honest, I gave you a GIF response because I can see what you're trying to do, and I'm not interested in participating. Your notion that I've failed to have a civil discussion with you, is in fact, your opinion. ;) A couple of your responses were somewhat condescending, but I let them go.

You present yourself as a candidate, I ask questions about your experience, and I am condescending?

Perhaps it had more to do with the naive nature of your statements then my condescending nature, but that is seeing it from my point of view.

You can see what I'm trying to do?

Is this yet another magical skill you bring to the table?

As a candidate you are not interested in participating. Because to continue to do otherwise you'd have to admit you presented opinions and tried to sell them as facts.

Clearly you can not own up to being wrong. Admitting when you are wrong is one of the most proven paths to resolving conflicts and achieving growth. People who think they know it all never open themselves to learning new things.

Those closed minded people tend to not make very good representatives in my humble opinion.

Perhaps you might be better served to answer questions based on what you believe to be the correct answer without trying to conjure up whatever motivations you want to attribute to the questioner. I do not know you and had no opinion either for or against you. I tip my hat to all those brave enough to toss their hat into the ring, but that does not mean I'll treat you or anyone with kid gloves. Toughen up.

Being a candidate and a representative means you ALWAYS keep your cool, if not you could be baited into a misstep and that does not serve the player base, of which I am a member whether or not you want to participate or not. Are you ready for the responsibility of the CPM?

Your current performance cast serious doubts on that.

Who are you? answer that? to me you're a non-factor?
