Looks like suit stats are now more in line with the general feeling....seems that tweak G Clone made has "worked".

To those here who know her, are you inclined to support her candidacy or do you have reservations? Please elaborate. Absolutely not. Who remembers the last time we had a female presence on the CPM? -1. Fairly certain that not all women are Jenza clones.

On a serious note, I personally think Zaria is an excellent candidate and one of the best so far.

I'm just glad Soraya isn't running again.....what a waste of a CPM slot.
My only reservation with Zaria is her movement through corps. In other words she hops to whomever is doing the best at the time. Also based on her interview she currently has no job, so has a lot of time for CPM and Dust; but I can see that changing rapidly when she inevitably lands a job.
Thats not saying she won't be a good member of CPM, just my spitball thoughts. There are far worse candidates than Zaria.

If Arkena likes her, we'll definitely need to check Zaria's post history during AR-514. See if she threw her dice in with the "everything is fine / get gud / you're doing it wrong" crowd.

I'm tolerably sure that she'd be more likely to say 'remove all guns so we can just have rep tools'.

IgniteableAura wrote: My only reservation with Zaria is her movement through corps. In other words she hops to whomever is doing the best at the time.
I'm going to query this.
Here's what her corp history is, effectively, from her first major corp after a settling period to the present:
1. Seraphim Initiative, 113 days 2. Ancient Exiles, 210 days 3. TeamPlayers, 54 days 4. Escrow Removal and Acquisition, 77 days 5. TeamPlayers, 155 days 6. OSG, 21 days 7. Outer.Heaven, 165 days
Here's the thing. A lot of players from those corps ended up reforming through a chain of corps that looked very similar to that. A good example is teamplayers - ERA was composed of a lot of players from teamplayers. If you consider the TP-ERA-TP period to have effectively been time with one corp, what you end up with is a set of 4 corps in which she spent serious time, going like this:
1. SI, 113 days 2. AE, 210 days 3. TP-ERA-TP, 286 days 4. OH, 165 days
If you cut out the brief periods in NPC corps and corps in which she evidently didn't settle in, that's what you end up with.
I actually think that's pretty reasonable, especially when those moves came basically as those corps died. SI dissolved, moved on to AE. TP dissolved, moved on to OH, became CEO.
I appreciate that you're coming at this from the perspective of a very loyal player who's basically stuck with one corp for two years with a brief window between, but I think Zaria has a very sensible corp history.

Search Term: "AR-514" - No results.
Search Term: "Assault Rifle" - Nothing pertinent from AR-514 timeframe; certainly nothing to suggest an Arkena-grade Team Gallente bias.
Search Term: "Nerf" - Only two pages. . A handful of posts from the Slayer Logi era, all of which struck me as reasonable and well-reasoned.
Search Term: "Idiot" - One page of results; nothing concerning found. Did find a post from Zatara's "let's bone EWAR scouts instead of fixing the real problem: Assault Lite" Dev Feedback thread. Read through her post twice; she struck me as well-informed; her position seemed reasonable. What do you guys think?
I am somewhat concerned about Zaria's thoughts on EWAR, but only because she recently hinted that she felt that GalLogi scans were fine (Page 1, Triage Ward). In my book, this potentially puts her in the same category as Cross (always reasonable and almost always right) whom I support 110% ... it's ok to be wrong, in my book, so long as it happens only occasionally and you're nice about it :-) We'll have to dig more thoroughly through her post history on these subjects (EWAR, GalLogi) as well as on this subject of Scouts in general. I doubt we'll find any problems, but better safe than sorry.
TL;DR: So far, I'm really liking what I've reading from Zaria's post history.

I'm with Arkena; nothing about her employment history really raises concern.

I would point out that the terms 'AR 514' and variants thereof are typically used by people holding a strong negative viewpoint towards ARs rather than it being used widely regardless of view.

Yup, sorry Adipem, but your search is flawed. AR-514 and the endless moronic versions of it (including things that replace the Ar with another object in that) are almost exclusively by opponents. It'd be like trying to find the term "scout 514" in my results.
What're you looking at me like that for? I'll shank you I will.

The old AR-514 complaint threads are the very best place to find AR apologists making excuses. I could be wrong, but my understanding is that if they quote another player who used the phrase then search results should return their "everything is fine" responses. Come to think of it, I should probably test that theory :-)

How would that change if you were teaching a group?
For me there's two separate aspects. One is based on how to play an FPS. The other is how DUST works. Assuming the first isn't part of your question (otherwise you could ask it for any game), I'd say there wouldn't be much different between solo training and group training.
As Adi said, covering skill points has to be first. You could then cover min-maxing, and perhaps you need to give them the lowdown on the different classes and races so they can figure out what to min-max into (or even if they want to min-max). Then corporations, factional warfare, q-synching and matchmaking, and the end-game. |

Did a 'Assault Rifle' search on myself, ended up with two pages.
There is one in which I seem incredibly biased against the BrAR (During it's reign)
It was the very last post in the search, the others were either unrelated to balancing, or logical.

Like 6 people on cpm? I kinda don't want to vote to many of the same class on. I know people seem to say oh you can't vote for or against someone based on what ckass they play as. . But I can and will be lol, class they mostly play, how well they play it, almongst other things.
Zaria is about the only one I think I can say for sure will be on the next cpm.
