My current personal focus is on fixing FW and low sec, increasing new bros, keeping bitter vets .
I want the small and medium pvp experience to be awesome.
I want the community to continue to grow, flourish and be awesome.
Looking at the balance of modules, ships and drops in Low sec. BC/BS balances and relevance.
@Insidious_Sainthood here, running for CSM XIV!
Obligatory back story: Started in May of 2007. Never looked back, never stopped. Wife told me to quit. Nope, sold my main for 90 days, went through vitoc withdrawls and started another account. Economic downturn requiring unsub? Nope. Really just waiting for the singularity so I can safe log in New Eden.
I started as a mission runner, living out of Abagawa. Joined the few corps who ganked me and offered to teach me more. Eventually, I was ganked in Akora in a mission raven omw to get a skillbook (I know, I know). That lead me to SMASH-ROADKILL and living in Geminate.
Null-Blocing was okay but I was a slightly more at-risk mission runner i.e. belt ratter, and part time F1 monkey. Learned about life in null and all the differences. A good growth period. Shortly, SMASH was dissolved and I found myself in Syndicate/Placid. Around the same time, I was linked a PvP video that “changed my life.”
Between Endless Subversion and Violatohr, my Eve career and play-style were saved. I was burned out on the grind/ganked routine when my eyes were opened to solo and small gang pvp. I remember thinking, “There is no way 1 cyclone can take on 3 BC,” and being amazed at this ability and playstyle.
I quickly changed my whole game and luckily found a good group to PvP with (later we would form BDEAL – The Important Internet Spaceship League and has a glorious time taking Provi with U’K before flaming out because small gang pilots do not necessarily make good null bloc directors ). Some found memories and excellent stories (like refusing people from fleet because we thought 5 pilots would scare off the prey).
I quickly went from, basically, unranked on Battle Clinic to the top 1000 (936 if I remember right).
Alas, my fake life required me to put away my real life and my clones remained dormant, and eventual lost to the annuls of history.
But I was reborn and now have the means and time to enjoy, and help others enjoy, the gleaming celestial gem that is New Eden! I currently fly solo and with RvB, of RvB fame. And I have dragged my teenage son along to share in the spoils.
I want a better FW, a better low sec, more balance and more fun. I personally lean toward solo and small PvP, but have dove into PvE content and try to avoid bittervet tunnel vision. I remember Apocrypha and the WH they brought, I delved Into the Abyss, and found wonderous new artifacts. I have flown in 3 ATs and want it back. I want newbros to feel welcome at the tables of the old guard and adventure into low and null and feel they have gained (well, maybe not Black Rise). I want to delete Tama from the game!!! (J/K get a lot of good content, just a poke at local). Most importantly, I want to renew everyone’s hope and joy in Eve and the CSM.
And finally, I have a small OCD when it comes to my inbox and therefore, I vow to read EVERY. SINGLE. EMAIL for the citizens of New Eden and weigh your thoughts, ideas, dreams and hopes against this wonderful tapestry we call home.
