Like you're any different

So you think the top 16 players of dust 514 should be the CPM?

-I kill more than I die so that mostly makes me non-scrub at least
- I test every suit/weapon/vehicle and module and feature, and scrape every map with a fine tooth comb every build. Unfortunately I do this on my main character despite knowing that its going to hurt me in the short run.
- I am 6 year vet in eve and been just about everywhere there and done just about everything as well :D
- Being the IRC speedbump is one of many things I do for this game need to look around and take notice.

Also in a very odd way, you too are a CPM 0 member Everyone here is...

Wow, you sir are an arrogant prick.

we will be bringing it here, in constructive TLDR posts that only people who care about the game will actually read.
There is no CPM atm, we are just part of the community, using another platform to discuss about a game we love, we aren't talking weapon mechanics or "this is op", we are talking about the politics of the game, how we can get more involved and produce a better talking point to the community, not ccp - nova said in the channel a while ago "if you want to make this idea successful, we need to get the community to trust us from the small scale." believe in the idea, an idea that is worth and that's what we are going to do. We don't want to just plop an idea what 7-8 people came up with in 2 weeks, we want the entire community to take part in shaping the idea into something meaningful we can be excited about implementing.

atm there are only 7 people talking in the channel right now, we are talking about the politics and its effects on the community and how we can ensure that everything that we do is in the communities interest, that includes yours.

I know you don't want it or believe in it, but I honestly think - regardless of player skill, if all aspects are heard - there is potential to make something work if people get involved.

all the cpm "area" is doing, is helping the community in anyway they can. may that be metagame, getting onto the cpm, refining ideas, talking about issues, voting on popular discussions, hosting tutorials, building a wiki.... It's community driven for the community - I'm calling it meta game because this is what I like to do, to me, this is part of the games politics.

But I am one of many with my own ideas and ideals.

I agree with you about nerf threads. They are made by average players, without much experiance or understanding. But I am an average player, and have never made a nerf thread. I'm sure that the vast majority of average players however are not making nerf threads. Also i think nerf threads are foolish. But you should look at a game like LOL when looking at succesful balancing. while they do keep top lvl competitive play in mind, they balance to the median. Beacuse that is the largest % or thier player base. they also are now one of the most succesful FTP games ever. This promots growth, and makes the game succesful. Good players will always be good, skill can t be nerfed.

In my opinion the who purpose of CPM 0 is to pave they way to CPM 1.

CPM 1 should be an elected organization that acts a Dust 514 stakeholder representing the community.

CPM 1 should work with the CSM on Eve/Dust Interaction.

CPM 1 should represent F2P players that put sweat equity into the game, but don't necessarily put in money directly.

I will not being running for CPM 1, but I want to see it established.

Passive SP can be easily eliminated from the equation by subtracting the following: time since character creation date minus passive sp accrual). Time played is another bar you can use.

Stop self jerking a bit then.

I am also against Kain's on the SP idea, its too easy to game out and it may illegtimize what could have been a valid voter one year may not be a valid voter the next year, after all FPS gamers will migrate to and from dust 514 during breaks between expansions or when the newest 'halogen call of warfare battlezone' game comes out. But at least we agree that it will remain a disagreement.

Get in IRC scrub.
