So why don't you like HYDRA so much if we spend isks for pvp?
Garmon alone killed more people than all your alliance alltogether

Sorry, I should have included "pvp in wormhole space". If you aren't fighting in w-space, you are just reducing the ISK we get from sleeper stuff, and not providing any entertainment for people who enjoy living in w-space.

Russian:
К сожалению, я должен был включить "пвп в BX". Если вы не боретесь в BX, вы просто сокращение ISK мы получаем из спальных вещи, и не предоставляет никаких развлечений для людей, которым нравится жить в BX.

Раз уж у нас тут вечер вопросов и ответов.

Вот тут в пункте три описана тула, которая ходила тока между узким кружком завсегдатаев старого пабликдемандс и еще парой личностей. В публичный доступ она никогда не выкладывалась с функционалом описанным в пункте Е. Автор(ам) тулы про баг рассказал я, после того как ццп его закрыла как "не-баг".
Откуда тайное знание у тустепа и зачем ему такой "продвинутый" пробхелпер ? =)

I am a programmer in real life. Someone pointed me to the various hacks, and since they are all source code, I read them and figured out what they were trying to do. At no point did I *ever* run them. If you would like to accuse me of cheating, you are wrong.

As for who AHARM doesn't like in w-space, it is very simple. If you kill sleepers in order to buy ships to kill people with, you are fine. If you kill sleepers to use the ISK for something else, we will kill you. People like Power of Two don't just avoid fighting AHARM, they don't fight anyone at all. That is not OK.

Russian:
Я программист в реальной жизни. Кто-то показал мне различные хаки, и так как они все исходные коды, я их читал и понял, что они пытаются сделать. Ни в одной точке я * никогда * запускать их. Если вы хотите, чтобы обвинить меня в мошенничестве, то вы ошибаетесь.

Как для тех, кто AHARM не нравится в BX, это очень просто. Если вы убьете шпал для того, чтобы купить корабли убивать людей, у тебя все хорошо. Если вы убьете шпалы использовать ISK для чего-то еще, мы будем убивать вас. Такие люди, как степень двойки не только избежать борьбы AHARM, они не драться с кем угодно вообще. То есть не в порядке.

Sorry guys, I haven't had time to visit here much recently, but we did just post a battle report about that fight:

http://dontshootx.bl...-hurt-less.html

Ссылка на тему размещена в шапке канала W-Space Reports. ТуСтепс там находится, может ответит на вопросы.

P.S. Jita, откуда столько агрессии? Я уже устал тебе карму восстанавливать.

Thank you very much. If people have questions, feel free to ask them here or in "W-Space Reports", or send me an eve mail.

За 2-е суток этот человек пробежал по всем русским каналам, нафлудил и там и тут.И это гугол переводчик не есть хорошо.Я понимаю человеку нужны голоса но вымагать их у игроков и мешать игровому процессу, характеризует его не с хорошей стороны.

This is not true. This morning I went into *one* channel, "w-space reports" to try to talk to people. This guy was very rude, and told me that he would come here and say that I was spamming. I said about 5 things, including a link to this thread. I did not send out mass evemails, I have not been spamming channels.

Это не так. Сегодня утром я пошел в * один * канал, "W-пространство отчетов", чтобы попытаться поговорить с людьми. Этот парень был очень груб, и сказал мне, что он придет сюда и скажет, что я был спам. Я говорил о 5 вещей, в том числе ссылку на эту тему. Я не посылал массовые evemails, я не был спам каналов.

Let me be captain obvious for a while. "Russian" corps and alliances are not populated only by people from russia or russians as a nation - they are formed from people capable of speaking and understanding russian (thats five to ten countries and dosen or two nations). Yet you think of them all as russians. I'm sure you can understand how french pilot (who takes pride in his nation) may take offence if he is considered english, only becouse main language of his alliance is english and when people say its actually his fault, becouse english people are making "english only" corps and alliances.
For me its much more important that while i'm minmatar i often have to fly caldari/amarr ships  

This is an excellent point, and I didn't really consider it. Thanks for bringing it up.

I'll try to use "Russian-speaking" instead of "Russian" in the future.

наверное, потому что csm, это прежде всего работа людей с людьми, что повышает приоритет личностных качеств. И это общение происходит в реале, а не в игре, да? ) И продвигать идеи надо среди людей. Если ты им не нравишься, вероятность продвижения твоих идей резко понижается.
Вроде бы ясно излагаю.

This is exactly correct. I can tell you from talking on Skype, that both other CSMs and CCP do not find Fon's racism to be appealing. I think that makes them less likely to listen to him.

Anyway, back to talking about *my* candidacy.

zadolbali uzhe pro nacikov.

all  I want is
-more random wh to the 00
-some new game mechanic in wspace.

What sort of new game mechanics? Also, we find 0.0 wormholes a lot, what class wormhole do you live in?

Man, this is eve-ru, so don't wonder why there is so much offtopic. You should even be proud that your topic hasn't yet been shitted out with tonns of meanless posts, trolling, etc.

Your answer on post#143 doesn't look complete enough, don't you think that WH C5-C6 could be used (and are being used now) for hyper-fast isk earning by one multi windowed person and risks are too low? Some disbalance here, you know. In addition to changing sleeps AI (more random and stronger AI are a must!) there shoud be more stuff to do with the profit and the risk balance, don't you think so?

Yes, I do think that is a problem, though we have caught people doing that and killed them (as I am sure many of you have done), so it isn't no risk. I agree that exploiting what are really bugs in the sleeper AI (the "leash" farming) shouldn't be possible. If you want to kill all the sleepers, you should have to tank all their damage, webs and neuts.

Судя по тому, что я читал, тут дело было даже не столько в деньгах, сколько в респекте за бой.

Yup, this is true. We accepted the payment because our goal is to keep people who fight, and someone who brings a 44 billion ISK Chimera certainly counts as fighting.

We don't like to make the amounts public, because then people complain if we demand more or less than for some other person. It was less than the cost of the Chimera...

There is a question here Two Step. People want to know why are you here? I mean we are glad to see you here at eve-ru.com, it's really cool to meet english-speaking CSM-candidate at russian-speaking forum, but you are the only one among non-russian candidates who posted here? Do you want to show some respect to russian community with you posts on biggest unofficial russian eve-forum? Do you think that russians are sizeable part of wh-settlers? Or you just need more people who will give you their voices?

Just a couple of words for us please.

I'm here because I want to represent *all* people that live in wormholes, no matter what language they speak. I think that living in a wormhole makes us more alike than not speaking the same language makes us different. I certainly respect the Russian-speaking wormhole community, you guys have kicked my ass enough to earn that. I think you guys are a pretty sizable percentage of the people living in wormholes (perhaps 20%?), and you should not be ignored by the CSM. As we can already see, many good ideas have been originally proposed here, and those ideas should not be ignored because you guys don't have a CSM member listening to you. I should have come to you guys last year, it was a mistake to not be here and talk to you.

Of course, I do need your votes as well, I am not just here to chat.

twostep, what do you think about idea of small K-space (or some kind of K-space) constellations, where will not be able to build supercaps and stations, which will be available only throw wormholes.

I've actually already proposed that to CCP Soundwave. I'd love to see 0.0 constellations, some within cyno range of existing space, some not, some within cyno range of each other, some not. I think that would make for some interesting interactions, especially if they only connected to high class wormholes. If they had some unique resources that were needed to build something that people wanted.

Google translate is doing a terrible job with the last page of stuff, but I *think* there was some discussion about removing local chat in 0.0. I do think something needs to be done to make scouting a lot more skill based. Combined with that sort of change, I could see changing local, but I wouldn't change it without those changes.

I would like to see more T3 stuff, though I am not sure about T3 frigates simply because there are a lot of frigates already, and not many frigate sized roles that are not filled. T3 Battleships, or even some sort of modular capital ship would be fantastic.

Btw, Two, are u going to support new features CCP wanna bring? I mean a topic on offorum `bout ..mm.."new items you want to see in eve".. `bout scripts for stasis webs\ hictor bubbles and so on

New features that make sense, of course. Some of the ideas that CCP has are very bad...

What would you like to see a stasis web script do? Trade range for web amount?

Hictors already have scripts, what would you like to see changed?

Apologies for the English, my Russian is terrible. I am running for re-election this year, and hope to have the support of *all* wormhole residents. If you have questions for me, please ask them, and I will either use Google translate or get some helpful Russians I know to translate.

My blog: http://twostep4csm.blogspot.com

Here is my message from eve-o:

Over the last year, I have been one of the hardest working members of CSM 6 (Trebor says so here). My main focus has been on representing wormhole residents, but I also have been contributing to discussions on topics like ship balancing, microtransactions and all the rest of the topics we discuss with CCP (see this wiki page)

Accomplishments as a CSM 6 member

While ultimately it is CCP that actually does the work, I did push hard on several specific features and bug fixes. The main one is Corporation Bookmarks. CCP has long wanted to get them done, but I think that continued pressure from me and the other CSM members pushed their priority up significantly. I brought up CPU usage on capital shield transporters, which was fixed in Crucible. I had significant input on POS fuel blocks, POCOs, pods on killmails, the Tier 3 BCs and several other topics.

I also read and respond to all the EVE Mails and conversations I get, and pass on feedback to CCP. I spend a lot of time on the forums, including the EVE official forums, Failheap Challenge, and Kugu (which I requested CCP unblock).

What still needs to be done

Firstly, I haven't gotten everything done yet. While we do have corp bookmarks, POS life is still difficult and we still get our own special "features" (aka bugs) after every patch. For example, we have the wormhole mass bug mentioned in this thread.

Secondly, the talk about the wormhole stabilizer (My blog post on the topic) just goes to prove that folks who live in w-space cannot see having a CSM rep as just a nice to have, but it is an absolute requirement. Without someone to speak up, CCP and other CSMs might ruin everything we have all worked so long and hard for.

Thirdly, this year will really matter. This is the time CCP will be fixing all the broken stuff and starting to look at designs for longer term fixes, and I expect that POSes may show up on that list (later in the year). CCP is doing a ton of ship balancing at long last, and I love having input into that, especially since we certainly fit ships differently in w-space.

Who I am in game

I started playing EVE in 2005. After a brief (2 month) stay in empire, I moved out to 0.0 space, in Tribute as part of the Forsaken Empire alliance. I did a bunch of stuff in 0.0, mostly PvP, but some POS management and industry stuff as well. I stuck with the same corp though a corp merger and a bunch of different alliances, most of which I don't even remember anymore. After a couple of years in 0.0, I basically got bored of 0.0 life and moved back to empire to try my hand at invention, which had just come out. I fairly quickly made a bunch of ISK, but eventually got bored and ended up taking a break from EVE for a year or so.

I came back to EVE shortly after the release of Apocrypha, in 2009. I had heard about the new wormhole content, and it sounded interesting to me. I joined a medium sized (at the time) wormhole corporation named Aperture Harmonics. Fairly soon after joining AHARM, I was made the US timezone director, and did a bunch of recruiting. AHARM was, and still is, a PvP corporation. We run sleeper sites in order to pay for new toys to kill stuff with. About 6 months after joining, I was made CEO, and ran the corp for a few months. Running a wormhole corporation was a lot of fun, but it does tend to burn folks out, and I took a short break from EVE in mid 2010. I came back just before our invasion of CCRES, which was the 2nd largest wormhole corp (behind us), and have been back ever since, though no longer as CEO.

Who I am IRL

My name is Josh Goldshlag, I am 34 years old, and live near Boston, MA. I am a computer programmer in my day job, and have previously worked in the game industry. My hobbies include cooking, photography and making my own maple syrup.

Endorsements from current and former CSM members:

Two Step was one of the hardest-working and most effective members of CSM6. He is a serious candidate who should be on any non-bloc voters "short list" of viable candidates.

I just wanted to add my 2 cents.. Two step was one of the hardest working CSM members on our team..
If you are in a wormhole group or non- bloc he is a worthy candidate to look at

Two Step, you know your ****.
Good luck!

I have to say it loudly - Two Step is a GOOD MAN.  Seriously.  The dude single-handedly ensured the elimination of CSM 'alts' because of his drive and dedication.  I may have created wormholes, but this man lives the dream.  o7 Josh [:8)]

Two Step is /the/ wormhole candidate. He out-ranked most CSM6 mains in terms of effort.

Two Step did an incredible amount of work and takes the CSM seriously. I absolutely endorse Two Step for CSM and strongly encourage you to give his candidacy a look.

Two Step is a great asset on CSM 6, look forward to seeing him in CSM 7

Two Step is one of the best guys in CSM6 - VOTE FOR HIM

LOVE!!!!

(from my blog)

I hope you run for CSM7 and get a full seat. You deserve it; you've been one of--if not the--most actively engaged CSM6 members with the community since you guys took office.

-- Mynxee (Chair, CSM5)

(non CSM endorsements)
from Jester's Trek

Two Step, more than any other member of CSM5 or CSM6, demonstrates the fundamental correctness of Mynxee's goal of making the so-called "alternate" members of the CSM part of the process.  Barely elected to CSM6 at all and dismissed as a wormhole specialty candidate, Two Step showed that he didn't really know or care what the word "alternate" meant.  He simply did the work.  More than any other single member of CSM6, he has been visible to the EVE Online player base in a variety of places, and has shown interest in multiple play-styles, not just his own.  Two Step still represents an important segment of the EVE player base, but I'd now argue that it's larger than simply wormhole dwellers... it's every EVE player that has no interest in sovereignty-based play and super-cap blobs.  Two Step deserves a full seat at the table in CSM7, and will be a terrific balance against these powerful forces.  Two Step not only has my endorsement, he'll be receiving at least one of my votes.

I was on the Lost in EVE debates. You can listen to my debate here!

Here is a Russian translation of most of that: (Thanks Crysalis!)

За последний год, я был одним из тех, кто тесно работал с членами CSM6 (Trebor говорит об этом тут). Основной упор был на вормхольную жизнь, но также я участвовал в дискуссиях по таким темам как баланс кораблей, микротранзакции и другие темы, которые мы обсуждали с CCP (смотрите эту вики-страницу).

Мои достижения в качестве члена CSM6.

Хотя, в конечном счете, CCP делает свою работу, я протолкнул несколько специфичных вещей и багфиксов. Одна из таких вещей – корпоративные букмарки. Хотя CCP и хочет завершить начатое, я думаю что надо продолжать давление и от меня, и от других членов CSM на значимость корпбук. Я был «за» фикс CPU у капшилдтранспортеров, который был в «Crucible». Я подписался за перевод на топливные блоки , POCO’s (POCO = Player Owner Custom Office, not Interbus Custom Office - tnx to Ali On), киллмылов подов, тиер3 бк и еще нескольких вещей.
Так же я читал и отвечал на все eve-мейлы и участвовал в обратной связи с CCP. Я проводил много времени на форумах, включая оф. форум EVE, Failheap Challenge и Kugu (который я просил CCP разблокировать).

Что должно быть закончено.

Во-первых, я не сделал все, что хотел. Хотя у нас есть корп.буки, жизнь на POS’е все равно остается сложной и мы постоянно получаем какие-то особенные фишки (баги) после каждого патча. Например, баг с массой вх, который обсуждается здесь.

Во-вторых, разговор о вх-стабилизаторе (подробнее в моем блоге - перевод выше, прим. переводчика) доказывает, что ребята, живущие в в-спейсе не видят в CSM того, с кем они могут общаться на своем языке, что является необходимым условием. (немножко вольный перевод, но смысл такой – прим. переводчика). Без того с кем можно говорить, CCP и другие члены CSM могут все переломать, над чем мы работали так долго.

В-третьих, в этом году это очень важно. В это время, CCP будет исправлять все, что было сломано и начинают заглядываться на долгосроные планы и я ожидаю что POS’ы могу оказаться в этом списке (позже в этом году). CCP исправляет баланс кораблей в последнее время и мне это нравится, особенно это заметно в особенностях фитинга кораблей в в-спейсе.

Кто я в игре.

Я начал игрть в Евку в 2005 году. После короткого пребывания в импе, я переехал в нули, в Tribute, часть альянса Forsaken Empire. Я занимался разными вещами там - большая часть – ПВП, меньше – управление POS’ами и производством. В этой корпе я пережил слияния разных корп и альянсов, большинство названий которых, даже не помню. После нескольких лет в нулях, они мне надоели и я вернулся обратно в импу, где пытался занятся инвентом, который только появился. Я довольно быстро заработал кучу исков, но и это мне надоело, после чего я решил взять перерыв в год или чуть более.

Я вернулся в EVE вскоре после выхода Apocryph’ы в 2009. Я слышал, что ввели новый контент – вормхоллы и это меня заинтересовало. Я вступил в небольшую (на то время) вормхольную корпорация Aperture Harmonics. Довольно скоро я стал директором US-таймзоны и набрал народ. AHARM были и остаются PVP-корпорацией. Мы делаем сплиперские аномальки, чтобы оплачивать новые кораблики. После 6 месяцев как я вступил, я стал CEO и управлял корпорацией в течении нескольких месяцев. В жизни нашей вормхольной корпорации было много веселья, но оно быстро меня высушило и я решил взять небольшой перерыв в середине 2010. Я вернулся перед нашим вторжение к CCRES, которые были второй самой большой корпой (после нас) в вх и состою в корпорции на сегодняшний момент, но уже не в качестве CEO.

Кто я в реальной жизни.

Меня зовут Josh Goldshlag, мне 34 года и живу рядом с Бостоном, MA. Я компьютерный программист и работаю в области комьютерных игр. Мое хобби – приготовление еды, фотографии и я делаю собственный кленовый сироп.
