Hey Judge, i could have asked this in gang but as this is a transparent process, thought best to ask here in the daylight.
What do you see being the biggest issue of CPM in terms of its credibility?
In the opinion of many, CPM0 did a great job but lacked the 'edge' to deal with CCP in a very robust way. CCP even stated they found it hard to 'find time' to deal as well as they should have with the CPM who were keen and eager individuals, wanting to make this game better.
How do you see that level of communication taking place given CCP is a professional business and sometimes targets take priority? can you be the 'bad guy' who will have to be slightly difficult in the interests of representing the player base (those who elect you to ask the difficult questions?)
my fear is that we will again have a group of people who are a bit scared of making a fuss and will let CCP slide once more on targets and objectives given their office is only at the pleasure of CCP and is able to be terminated at any time.
How do you plan to walk that tight rope? |

No matter how good the communication, or how keen CCPs developers and the CPM are to do something, sometimes there is conflict. Watch my videos and you will hear me challenge CCP directly. You will hear me use words like unacceptable, broken, unfair and fix it. I have challenged them for a year now, and I will not stop on the CPM.
I think this is a key point and worthy of discussion here - the simple fact is that CPM0 had many different handlers with very differing levels of communication skills - this led to the fact that CPM0 was disregarded for quite some lengths of time by CCP
My fear is that the wrong set of candidates will give CCP carte blanche to treat us the community with even more disregard and when the all important legion discussions come around, i want someone with a spine to back us. so grats for that.
A follow up question - as a project professional, as you state, you must understand that each and every resource in a firm has a 'usable time limit' what would be your actions when / if you felt CPM1 had run its course? would you stand up and call for its disbandment?

It would be great if from here on in.. we could have an adult and mature discussion. *fingers crossed*.
Go shove your maturity up your bum poohead!
i jokeof course
Lets focus on the politics and less on the smears folks. There is so much good that the CPM can bring to Dust 514 at a time when the game stands at a cross roads. Id rather not have petty infighting be the last act of Dust 514.

Going to post this here in Judges CPM thread as i like him the most.
What seriously are you doing? All of you CPM wannabees and your hanger ons. why are you basically trying to kneecap each other (selectively)?
Dust 514 is a sinking ship as of right now, we are even having some pretty doubtful discussions about eveoffline.com which seems to be showing some....lets say.. errors when it comes to how many people are playing this game.
My concern right now is that Dust 514 is totally done. It has no chance to ever accrue players with the current lethargy being shown it by CCP and this is just the starting point:
1 - CCP is financially not doing too well, its owners (go read least years annual report) will only continue to bankroll it so far, Iceland's economy is all but killing growth in the country and this is why they had to let so many people go. (RIP Saberwing never forget)
2 - Dust 514 is a VERY VERY EXTREMELY niche product - given how hardcore the player base is thats left, its likely that Dust 514's entire player base is less than 20k now - this i feel makes sense as so often we see the same names over and over yet there are so few of them.
3 - Legion - ahh legion, where to begin here - if you have played Destiny, you will already be smirking about Legion, too little too late. Unless Legion hits the shelves with a 90%+ score, it will again be heralded as a failure and will likely be the hammer blow to CCPS IP to 'mercs on the ground'
4 - Competition - Lets face it, Destiny isn't the only competition to Dust, there is going to be a huge number of 'space games' coming to the PC as well as open world 'Dayz' or 'Borderlands' inspired shooters that CCP as a company who have never done this before, have to over come? well no, they actually could never have millions of people playing their games due to the single server stuff, so its likely that Legion will again like Dust be aimed at perhaps 20k people........
So to get to my point, do you honestly feel that fighting about who gets the hot seat has any meaning at all?
Do you really think that slander and manipulation to get lesser minds into the CPM means anything to the success of Dust?
The answer is no - none of this matters but i wanted to kind of point out that the CPM is working hard to get into power to then be the group named and shamed for killing Dust - yes that's right, CCP is likely to cancel Dust while your in council and we will all know your real names and forever mock and hate you for ushering in the death of something good.
Stop fighting and squabbling with each other and get Dust 514 transferred to Legion in the best way while also pushing CCP along as they don't have the luxury of time with legion, in fact its perhaps already an old concept seeing as Destiny has beat them to the punch.
