My 'qualifications' are that 1) I'm here, I'm learning the game inside and out, talking to people, asking their opinions, and in addition to that, I've played EVE Online for over 5 years, I've represented parts of my own local community in gaming, and I'm experienced at leading Corporations in EVE, and I've brought that to DUST 514 with the creation of the Southern Legion.
Specificalliy to FPS, I've played many Console FPS Games, from CoD, Battlefield, and so many. Even flirted with Halo.
Above all, I'm willing to represent the community of DUST 514, EVE Online, (DUST coming first in my eyes) and take policy to the CSM that will bring DUST 514 into equal footing with EVE Online both in representation, and in the eyes of Gamers.
The point is I don't believe you even understand the problems of the people you want to represent and you want a trip out of Iceland so you can feel like a big boy.
You had to create an alt to run which means you are not proud of who you were in console FPS or alternately. You were just unknown and not active in those communities. If there is a csm rep for dust eventually, it sounds like there would be much better candidates with a longer resume of experience, qualifications. And console FPS cummunity interaction.
If you had been an active member if console FPS community, the. You would understand that our concerns are different from a pc FPS player for many reasons.
This is not what you want to hear but swearing to learn dust and be part if dust does not make you a serious contender for representation bc anyone who is playing the game has those qualifications. You simply just don't bring anything to the table exept for long winded posts and the ability to sign your forum posts (which makes you look strange)
I vote no for whoever this guy is. |

Not to sound like a ****, but who are you again?
EDIT: also what's this talk about Iceland, alts and console fps communities? I don't think we're not he same page here.......
I know this isn't what you want to hear but you simply just don't bring anything to the table but stupid, irrelevant posts and the ability to make several hundred typos ( which makes you look strange)

Well, you bring up an intersting idea. And I'd like to know where you got this information from.
First, where in hell did you get the impression that I am an ALT? I am The Black Jackal, I am the CEO of the Southern Legion, I am not an alt. I even declared my EVE Online name (Hunter Blake) which is my EVE Online Main. So, however you determined me to be an Alt... you're simply wrong on that account.
Secondly, I am running to represent DUST 514... which is not solely a Console FPS Community. The CSM represents New Eden, not Battlefield 3, Call of Duty, not Halo, not Section 8:Prejudice.
DUST is DUST. it is a first amongst FPS experiences in that it links directly with another MMO Community. You cannot simply state that because I don't have the 'extensive' Console FPS experience with communities that have no bearing on the existing social community of New Eden.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, however, and if you believe that my posts are 'long winded' then you clearly don't read them. And as to signing my own Posts, there are many people who run 'signatures' on their forum profiles that say much cooler, or stupider, or different things. How is mine any different from theirs, except that I manually type mine?
Concluding this, I appreicate your view, and I'm sure your view is held by others in the DUST community, but from personal experience, Community Activity in games unrelated to EVE does not 'qualify' you to run for the player governement of EVE... much like the King of England wouldn;t run for President of the United States. Different demographics etc.

He's referring, with that jab about Iceland, that CSM members get invited to Iceland to consult with CCP over a 3 day course of meetings around June / July of each year.
He's not entirely accurate on me wanting that. If sudden financial situations hadn;t come up, I would have been in Iceland for a month over April may on my own steam for the tenth Fanfest. I don't need anyone to pay my way to get anywhere. And the trip to Iceland is a backdrop to what REALLY happens in the CSM.
You want to understand? Try looking at the EVE Online Forums, specifically the Jita Speaker's Corner, and Assembly Hall. The CSM grinds through endless pages of posts, ideas, QQing, etc to gather together an agenda for their meetings with CCP. Both in person and via Communication Programs such as Skype.
There are thousands of posts, some relevant, some irrelevant. Being a CSM doesn't mean you sit back and get cushy, and the opinions I require to present to CCP are here, in these forums. Or Expressed to me in mails, or chat. Not on other community websites. (If they are, please report them to CCP for violation of the NDA.)
Console and PC FPS players have the same concerns as eachother. From gameplay that's enjoyable, fast-paced, and worthwhile to play, similarly to many MMO players (though with a focus more on RPG elements or RTS elements.) Ease of controls, quality of game? Anything I'm actually missing here? Please illuminate me as to what element of CONSOLE FPS I'm actually missing? |

I'll take that as a negative on the 'Console Specific' Concerns that I missed.
Also the alt debate seems moot, so I'll simply point out that if indeed the DUST Community has issues, those are what I'll represent IF I get elected to the CSM. However, in the interim, I have suggested an informal CPM (Council of Planetary Management).
This would be an elected body by DUST players, for an unofficial Council of Planetary Management so DUST people can see exactly what it means to be a) represented, and b) what representatives actually do just by uniting their voices.
From my own personal point of view, I would see such a council consisting of at least 16 people, and elected by the players of DUST 514.
CCP would have to handle the election, however, since they'd be able to know what votes to discount due to alts etc. One vote ballot per account.
Self-nomination should be allowed, and open debate nights / days should be arranged... this Council would simply unify the DUST voices to CCP in what the DUST players want.

Since there's alot of Political Discussion opening on the forums now, I'm going to put this back up. Alot of the posts in here (both positive and negative) answer alot of questions people are asking in the other threads.
I will be running for the CSM (whether it be the current one, or a DUST Alone one) to represent DUST and it's interests, and it's relationship with EVE Online.
