Where's our blog? I want to know who Goonswarm is going corrupt.

Assuming it's "not fair" is assuming that the reputation and backlash is unearned, even just with what has been done publicly on these forums it's clearly not 'just a mistake'. Read what happened with Kain and the event he was organizing, granted it came out right in the end but only after a public kitten storm. Putting the cookie back after you've been caught with your hand in the jar doesn't negate your original actions which created the situation. Many of the individuals who have a "real hate-on" for Shad have very specific and legitimate reasons for the outlook, being a podcast 'celebrity' does not wipe away the consequences of how you treat people, nor should it.

ps ~ I'm not going to drag this thread off topic by rehashing the above, if you want details ask the parties involved in each specific instance and/or simply use the forums search command.

Too complex. Good people would get pissed off and missed out on simply because it's too much hassle doing all that.

Not to sure about that if it's done proper. For now most community projects and works are pointed out to CCP by way of e-mails, forums and twitter. What would be wrong to have a place here where you already log-in to use the forums and be able to submit a link to your blog posts, wiki work, youtube videos, so on and have it all registered and associated to your user account. It just seems to me as a way to save both the player and CCP time, plus help in giving recognition where it is do.

My point is that someone shouldn't have to jump those hoops to get on the WC. They may have other skills which are just as important if not more so.

@ Cerebral Wolf - You do make a good point and I do agree that other skill and elements should be considered. By the way well done on your work with the OB exploit.


@Cap Awesome - I'm glad to hear that this is an idea in the works in some form. Please add a link so I can check out your site.

The ISD have no problem posting about their work, the WC shouldn't either.
There needs to be someone to tell us what's going on. 1/2/30 what ever, I understand not everyone doesn't have the interest in keeping the community in the loop, yet may still be a good candidate, but SOMEONE should be there to pass on the information.

There are people with different opinions, and just because CCP has selected people on the council, doesn't mean those people carry the best opinions from the community. As you say, people excel in different areas, but if we don't hear about it, we can't gage that contribution.

neweden.co - the site will eventually be cpm.newEden.co but until my project is in the works, I'm giving them neweden.co in the interim

Because I have NEWEDEN.ORG?

ya do? ya plan on doing anything with it? :) .co was chosen because RL corporations tend to use .co

Just some projects, but maybe I linky to yours.

cool, maybe we can collaborate if the projects are somewhat related

Honestly, I bought it to give Bojo a site other than that AWFUL Enjin site (it made my eyes bleed), but I sure as kitten wasn't going to spend money on "bojo.com" or whatnot.

That guy gets his name plastered on enough stuff already!

At some point, I want to do something with the main domain site, but I haven't figured out what yet.

We're hammering out some details with NDAs before we can officially announce anything. We're hoping to have it out very soon.

Well you'll be able to meet them all if you're at Fanfest... CCPs flown them all out there for a start and will likely be flying them to Shanghai for the first serious summit later in the year.
