You may not like me. I may have burned down you home in Molden Heath, but that doesn't mean we can't take a step back and look at some simple ways to make Planetary Conquest better. Please take a look at the linked thread and discuss the proposals and make some suggestions. Just note this is geared towards low bandwidth (developer time and resources) suggestions that can primarily be done in a hot fix. Thank you again for your thoughts and your time.

htf are you still a CPM?

What I do as a CPM and what I do as a player are two different things.

And yet you are the same person. I don't see this as a justification.

I understand that some players will always remain too ignorant to understand it.

In-game, he will still try to win.

I have no problem with that.

But your speaking as if he is able to split his personality into two distinct people yet I find this impossible to believe. He is a CPM and a player and you're telling me there is no way for him to use his position as CPM, i.e his access to information that I will say over and over again; is the most valuable commodity I know, to positively affect his performance as a player?

Help me understand how you could possibly have no advantage over other players such as, for example myself, by being a competitive player (high level competition at that) and also a CPM.

I'm not saying he's dipping into CPM's code bank and changing ****, I actually respect that fact that Kain and his allies have managed to do what they did, it takes a lot of work to do so. All I'm saying is; was it done in a manner of fair sportsmanship? In that neither party had an advantage over the other.

Assuming big changes are on the horizon for PC, and knowledge is power, can you really blame anyone for raising an eyebrow at this juncture?

Using my position as CPM for an in-game advantage goes against the core principles of the CPM, and if you feel that is the case submit a ticket to CCP and Internal Affairs can have a look at it.

Couldn't have said it better myself my friend.

Being a CPM doesn't make me shoot straighter or run faster or make the troops sent into battle perform any better.

Can you say that you have never divulged any sort of information, not available to anyone besides CCP and the members of CPM, to anyone in any way, shape or form, be that hints, clues, drunken blurts, whispers or anything of the sort?

I sign my real life name on the NDA. That is my real life word and bond and you would have to kill me in real life before I broke that bond. That is not something I mess around with.

I would hope that anyone that is a CPM or considers being on CPM1 would feel the same way.

1st Lieutenant Tiberius: Using NDA info to determine game choices is strictly against the rules. For instance, if he knows something is getting buffed, and stocks up on that in order to take advantage of the player market, or something, he'd be violating his CPM arrangement. He's not allowed to act in advance of it being public knowledge.

If Kain was exploiting some kinda code for being CPM he'd be a good player. He has many flaws like any other average joe. It just so happens he is in a corp with killers and not wasting his time elsewhere. If he had some kinda CPM advantage he would be going 100-0 every match.

This is a naive comprehension of my point and not what I'm talking about at all. But yes I will agree he is surrounded by some top notch players such as yourself, that is definitely a factor.

I have no problem with that.

Around my nan I am an angel.

Anywhere else I am me, an horrible **** who will fk you up and abuse my martial arts to do it quickly if you annoy me while I'm out. two different people in one mate.

Yes, I will use martial arts rain or shine, no fks ever given, ever. I am a really nice guy though.

Doesn't change the fact that your apparent martial arts ability is innately in your head, only you yourself have the ability to decide when or when not to use it, that knowledge is inside of you and it has an effect on your choices.

A man who knows martial arts will approach a situation differently than a man who knows not how to defend themselves. Information, abundance or lack thereof, is the deciding factor.

And @ Soraya. The evidence, as you so call it, is out there but I have little intention to try and "legally" so to speak approach this, rather I am merely putting it out there for the community to read and decide for themselves. I feel like I'm discussing this with a bunch of lawyers, tbh.

The point is, as a player, he is doing what he can for the community, but in-game, he will still try to win. Why should he not try to win while playing a game?

So, you suggest Spero should have to do tireless effort on your behalf to make the game better, and also not play it himself?

So, what you're saying is, you have no concrete evidence of any kind to suggest he's doing anything wrong, but since you aren't a CPM, you're going to try to define what essentially means "all CPM are inherently cheating" then instead?

Does Kain Spero pay you to suck his **** so hard or is this something you do voluntarily?
