[ 2009.07.05 16:18:09 ] Dierdra Vaal > ********* CSM meeting 4 start at 16:18
[ 2009.07.05 16:18:40 ] Dierdra Vaal > Absent, vuk lau and zastrow - it will not be counted against them due to possible confusion as to the start of the meeting
[ 2009.07.05 16:18:50 ] Dierdra Vaal > First - I assume everyone has received my email regarding the QnA from CCP. It is also on our internal CSM forums. I will be looking forward to receiving your questions.
[ 2009.07.05 16:19:09 ] Dierdra Vaal > if you did not receive my email, let me know
[ 2009.07.05 16:19:17 ] Omber Zombie > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:19:20 ] Dierdra Vaal > oz?
[ 2009.07.05 16:19:24 ] Omber Zombie > have we got ccp emails yet or not
[ 2009.07.05 16:19:46 ] Omber Zombie > (enmd0
[ 2009.07.05 16:19:54 ] Meissa Anunthiel > as of yesterday, the csm.eveonline.com domain was not working
[ 2009.07.05 16:20:00 ] Omber Zombie > ffs
[ 2009.07.05 16:20:08 ] Meissa Anunthiel > Under ConstructionThe site you are trying to view does not currently have a default page. It may be in the process of being upgraded and configured.
[ 2009.07.05 16:20:08 ] Dierdra Vaal > "In regards to the emails, I applied pressure and I have been assured that everything will be done this week. I reserved to break an arm if that was not the case.-Pétur."
[ 2009.07.05 16:20:19 ] Dierdra Vaal > I will contact him after the meeting
[ 2009.07.05 16:20:28 ] Dierdra Vaal > it sounds like some CCP employees will require a doctor soon
[ 2009.07.05 16:20:52 ] Omber Zombie > i just mailed myself - and it works...
[ 2009.07.05 16:21:10 ] Dierdra Vaal > you may have an old address tho?
[ 2009.07.05 16:21:20 ] Omber Zombie > omber.zombie@csm.eveonline.com
[ 2009.07.05 16:21:20 ] Dierdra Vaal > regardless, I shall contact Petur
[ 2009.07.05 16:21:44 ] Dierdra Vaal > next on the agenda a bit sad news
[ 2009.07.05 16:21:53 ] Dierdra Vaal > I'm sorry to report that todays agenda will be cut almost in half. Agenda items 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 12 and 14 have not been wikified.
[ 2009.07.05 16:22:00 ] Dierdra Vaal > While I hate to do this, this is meeting 4. I made it clear in the first meeting that issues need to be wikified ON TIME. The absence of a wiki issue will make it impossible to define what we vote on exactly.
[ 2009.07.05 16:22:10 ] Dierdra Vaal > As such, these items will be removed from the agenda. I propose that we hold meeting 5 next week. If we do not do this, the meeting in 2 weeks would be overcrowded with issues.
[ 2009.07.05 16:22:19 ] Dierdra Vaal > Additionally, I'd like to add that I'm personally a bit dissapointed that even after 2 weeks, some of you cannot be bothered to write a wiki issue.
[ 2009.07.05 16:22:47 ] Dierdra Vaal > there is plenty of time, and absolutely no need to do everything last minute. I have to be firm now, so hopefully it does not happen again.
[ 2009.07.05 16:23:52 ] Dierdra Vaal > which means the first issue is
[ 2009.07.05 16:23:53 ] Dierdra Vaal > 3: Skill injection (OZ)
[ 2009.07.05 16:23:58 ] Dierdra Vaal > http://wiki.eveonline.com/wiki/Skill_injection
[ 2009.07.05 16:24:10 ] Omber Zombie > ok then
[ 2009.07.05 16:24:53 ] Omber Zombie > the wiki makes it pretty clear, but in a nutshell, I would like ccp to add functionality for the skillqueue to allow skills which have their prereq's already in the queue to be injected
[ 2009.07.05 16:25:01 ] Omber Zombie > any questions/comments?
[ 2009.07.05 16:25:14 ] Dierdra Vaal > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:25:24 ] Omber Zombie > go d
[ 2009.07.05 16:25:30 ] Dierdra Vaal > sounds straightforward - I recently had this issue myself. I think we can vote :)
[ 2009.07.05 16:25:37 ] Dierdra Vaal > end
[ 2009.07.05 16:25:39 ] Erik Finnegan > yes we can
[ 2009.07.05 16:25:45 ] Omber Zombie > i know lark had an issue with this from the thread
[ 2009.07.05 16:25:51 ] Omber Zombie > so he may want to comment
[ 2009.07.05 16:25:58 ] Larkonis Trassler > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:26:09 ] Omber Zombie > go lark
[ 2009.07.05 16:26:56 ] Avalloc > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:27:04 ] Larkonis Trassler > Yeah I'm all for it as long as certain prereqs are met and you can only inject it if you are less than 24 hours from completing the prereqs
[ 2009.07.05 16:27:40 ] Larkonis Trassler > Relieving people of skill books is profitable and fun
[ 2009.07.05 16:27:50 ] Larkonis Trassler > but
[ 2009.07.05 16:28:34 ] Avalloc > (remove my !)
[ 2009.07.05 16:28:36 ] Larkonis Trassler > i'm also concerned this might have a knock on effect with character sales and the like
[ 2009.07.05 16:28:54 ] Dierdra Vaal > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:29:12 ] Larkonis Trassler > but i'm just speculating on the coding issues here
[ 2009.07.05 16:29:13 ] Larkonis Trassler > end
[ 2009.07.05 16:29:17 ] Omber Zombie > agreed, and that is stated pretty clearly - you can't add it to the queue if it doesn't fit in the queue :)
[ 2009.07.05 16:29:25 ] Omber Zombie > dier?
[ 2009.07.05 16:29:29 ] Dierdra Vaal > the 24 hour completion limitation that lark mentioned was somethign I did not consider - I hope this can be added to the wiki issue
[ 2009.07.05 16:29:36 ] Dierdra Vaal > end
[ 2009.07.05 16:29:53 ] Omber Zombie > the 24 hour limitation is part of the skill queue itself
[ 2009.07.05 16:30:09 ] Omber Zombie > i can add it to the wiki, but I personally don't see any need to
[ 2009.07.05 16:30:21 ] Omber Zombie > anyway, any other comments?
[ 2009.07.05 16:30:36 ] Meissa Anunthiel > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:30:40 ] Omber Zombie > meissa
[ 2009.07.05 16:30:53 ] Meissa Anunthiel > sounds complex to implent, not sure they'll go with it, but it's fine
[ 2009.07.05 16:30:57 ] Meissa Anunthiel > [end]
[ 2009.07.05 16:31:09 ] Meissa Anunthiel > (implement)
[ 2009.07.05 16:31:16 ] Omber Zombie > if no-one else has anything to add - votage
[ 2009.07.05 16:31:23 ] mazzilliu > voting yes
[ 2009.07.05 16:31:24 ] Erik Finnegan > /emote votes yes
[ 2009.07.05 16:31:26 ] Omber Zombie > /emote goes for yes

[ 2009.07.05 16:32:00 ] Dierdra Vaal > motion passes 7/0
[ 2009.07.05 16:32:22 ] Dierdra Vaal > 4: covert cynos in high sec (DV)
[ 2009.07.05 16:32:27 ] Dierdra Vaal > http://wiki.eveonline.com/wiki/Covert_cynosural_fields_in_high_security_space
[ 2009.07.05 16:32:57 ] Dierdra Vaal > basically, allowing covert cynos to be made in high sec space allows for a great deal of cool new tactics in high sec pvp
[ 2009.07.05 16:33:07 ] Dierdra Vaal > especially in combination with the blacops and its portalling tech
[ 2009.07.05 16:33:32 ] Dierdra Vaal > A full description is ofcourse available in the wiki
[ 2009.07.05 16:33:48 ] Dierdra Vaal > any questions?
[ 2009.07.05 16:33:52 ] Erik Finnegan > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:33:55 ] Omber Zombie > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:34:00 ] Dierdra Vaal > oh my
[ 2009.07.05 16:34:01 ] Dierdra Vaal > erik
[ 2009.07.05 16:34:13 ] Erik Finnegan > I have read through the thread as well : any new insights (of Meissa prolly) about the impact on trade ?
[ 2009.07.05 16:34:16 ] Meissa Anunthiel > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:34:18 ] Dierdra Vaal > (btw, not directed at anyone in particular, do make sure to read the wiki)
[ 2009.07.05 16:34:20 ] Erik Finnegan > That seemed to have been the major point there
[ 2009.07.05 16:34:21 ] Erik Finnegan > FIN
[ 2009.07.05 16:35:02 ] Dierdra Vaal > nothing new that hasnt been incorporated into the wiki issue. The amount of jumps between major trade hubs stays the same. Still, I admit trading is something to keep in mind with this issue
[ 2009.07.05 16:35:08 ] Dierdra Vaal > although I believe it will not be a major problem.
[ 2009.07.05 16:35:09 ] Avalloc > brb, bio
[ 2009.07.05 16:35:11 ] Dierdra Vaal > OZ?
[ 2009.07.05 16:35:26 ] Larkonis Trassler > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:35:36 ] Omber Zombie > my only concern is that it would limit the implementation of blackops style capital ships should ccp go down that road in the future - otherwise i'm cool with it, the trade benefit is mostly neutralized by the jump fuel cost anyway (end)
[ 2009.07.05 16:36:24 ] Dierdra Vaal > An interesting idea, but I kinda feel like we can cross that bridge when we get there (mass limits on covert cynos in high sec?), etc
[ 2009.07.05 16:36:36 ] Dierdra Vaal > meissa
[ 2009.07.05 16:36:43 ] Meissa Anunthiel > These considerations should be taken into account:Moving easily in highsec disrupts carebear wars where everyone is on an equal (read: low) footing.
[ 2009.07.05 16:36:50 ] Meissa Anunthiel > Moving easily in highsec removes potential mandatory lowsec passages.While the current range of black ops is limited and would not disrupt trade much, any future range increase to the black ops would be hindered by the impact it has on highsec marke...
[ 2009.07.05 16:36:59 ] Meissa Anunthiel > markets. [/end]
[ 2009.07.05 16:37:24 ] Dierdra Vaal > correct - I will add the range caveat to the issue.
[ 2009.07.05 16:37:35 ] Dierdra Vaal > lark
[ 2009.07.05 16:37:36 ] Larkonis Trassler > wrt trading it only really affects boosters which need a boost (pun intended)
[ 2009.07.05 16:37:58 ] Larkonis Trassler > and high value low volume goods which the switched on player can move undetected anyway, and given the anaemic jump range of BO at the moment i don't see it as too much of an issue
[ 2009.07.05 16:38:52 ] Larkonis Trassler > unless of course you have a gang of br's
[ 2009.07.05 16:39:11 ] Meissa Anunthiel > (br?)
[ 2009.07.05 16:39:14 ] Larkonis Trassler > in which case maybe add the caveat that blockade runners are unable to bridge into hisec
[ 2009.07.05 16:39:18 ] Dierdra Vaal > blockade runners
[ 2009.07.05 16:39:19 ] Larkonis Trassler > blockade runner
[ 2009.07.05 16:39:33 ] Meissa Anunthiel > (doh)
[ 2009.07.05 16:39:40 ] Larkonis Trassler > concord trade division (lolrp)
[ 2009.07.05 16:39:41 ] Larkonis Trassler > end
[ 2009.07.05 16:39:58 ] Dierdra Vaal > lark, that is something I did think of - I'm not sure if its ideal though with the inclusion of fuel bays perhaps blockade runners to carry jump fuel are no longer needed
[ 2009.07.05 16:40:02 ] Dierdra Vaal > I shall include it in the issue.
[ 2009.07.05 16:40:14 ] Dierdra Vaal > I listed booster trading as a 'neutral' in the wiki :)
[ 2009.07.05 16:40:27 ] Meissa Anunthiel > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:40:29 ] Dierdra Vaal > since its good or bad depending on your opinion of combat boosters
[ 2009.07.05 16:40:30 ] Dierdra Vaal > meissa
[ 2009.07.05 16:41:39 ] Meissa Anunthiel > I fail to see why you want them in highsec... In addition to the afforementionned issue with hindering BO range improvements, it would also hinder creation of anything that relies on covert cynos... What missing spot are you trying to fill with this?
[ 2009.07.05 16:41:41 ] Meissa Anunthiel > [/end]
[ 2009.07.05 16:42:21 ] Dierdra Vaal > I am looking to improve the usefulness of covert cynos and covert portals, as well as increase the tactics available in high sec warfare
[ 2009.07.05 16:42:39 ] Dierdra Vaal > also, due to game mechanics, alt scouts are a lot harder to get rid of in high sec than in other areas
[ 2009.07.05 16:42:54 ] Meissa Anunthiel > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:43:09 ] Dierdra Vaal > which can make it extremely difficult to set a proper trap.
[ 2009.07.05 16:43:27 ] Dierdra Vaal > covert cynos will allow for more interesting traps.
[ 2009.07.05 16:43:28 ] Dierdra Vaal > meissa
[ 2009.07.05 16:43:42 ] Meissa Anunthiel > scouts (alt or not) being hard to get rid of is a feature of highsec, not a "bug" to fix, it's not due to game mechanics, it's because there's stations everywhere...
[ 2009.07.05 16:43:51 ] Meissa Anunthiel > and imho, that's a good thing.
[ 2009.07.05 16:44:30 ] Meissa Anunthiel > the risks of anticipatively continuing the nerf of BOs by adding this is not worth the cost to me. [/end]
[ 2009.07.05 16:44:39 ] Meissa Anunthiel > (worth the benefit)
[ 2009.07.05 16:44:55 ] Dierdra Vaal > fair enough, but I disagree :)
[ 2009.07.05 16:44:58 ] Dierdra Vaal > any other !s?
[ 2009.07.05 16:45:53 ] Dierdra Vaal > ok then I suppose we can vote
[ 2009.07.05 16:45:56 ] Meissa Anunthiel > /emote votes no
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:04 ] Dierdra Vaal > Voting on: allowing covert cynos in high sec:
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:05 ] Dierdra Vaal > yes
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:13 ] Larkonis Trassler > yes
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:22 ] Omber Zombie > yes
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:44 ] Erik Finnegan > /emote abstains
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:52 ] Avalloc > hmm
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:52 ] Omber Zombie > you can't abstain
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:52 ] mazzilliu > ill abstain too.
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:57 ] Erik Finnegan > (Dran)
[ 2009.07.05 16:46:59 ] Erik Finnegan > darn
[ 2009.07.05 16:47:04 ] Omber Zombie > yes or no, there is no abstain
[ 2009.07.05 16:47:26 ] mazzilliu > k then i will wait for everyone else to finish then vote in a way that it doesnt change the outcome
[ 2009.07.05 16:47:36 ] Dierdra Vaal > lol
[ 2009.07.05 16:47:45 ] Erik Finnegan > /emote votes yes (for RP argument and opening up high-sec)
[ 2009.07.05 16:48:11 ] Dierdra Vaal > maz may I ask why you choose to abstain?
[ 2009.07.05 16:48:12 ] Erik Finnegan > There you go, Maz
[ 2009.07.05 16:48:14 ] mazzilliu > ill vote yes then
[ 2009.07.05 16:48:22 ] Avalloc > yes
[ 2009.07.05 16:48:27 ] Dierdra Vaal > motion passes 6/1
[ 2009.07.05 16:48:43 ] mazzilliu > because it seems really not much of a benefit or cost one way or the other.  not sure which side is better
[ 2009.07.05 16:48:48 ] Dierdra Vaal > ok
[ 2009.07.05 16:48:50 ] Dierdra Vaal > 6: Make certain factions more valid for mission running (Erik)
[ 2009.07.05 16:48:54 ] Dierdra Vaal > http://wiki.eveonline.com/wiki/Make_Certain_Factions_More_Valid_for_Mission_Running_-_Part_2
[ 2009.07.05 16:49:08 ] Erik Finnegan > The suggestion is to evaluate the availability of agents in the smaller factions. The Caldari have had lots of love in the past, which is fine seeing Capsuleer origin.
[ 2009.07.05 16:49:18 ] Erik Finnegan > The argument, however, that "the more Caldari pilots we have, the more Caldari agents we need", could be turned around and asked : "more agents for other factions might motivate more mission running for them"
[ 2009.07.05 16:49:32 ] Erik Finnegan > I suggest to keep that in mind for new agents to be added next time.
[ 2009.07.05 16:49:36 ] Erik Finnegan > Questions ?
[ 2009.07.05 16:50:04 ] Omber Zombie > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:50:07 ] Erik Finnegan > OZ
[ 2009.07.05 16:50:17 ] Omber Zombie > "CCP should also consider an additional boost to loyalty points generated in low-security space and 0.0 or other incentives to offset the risk. "
[ 2009.07.05 16:50:36 ] Omber Zombie > no matter how much you boost the LP gain, people won't mission there due to the increased risk
[ 2009.07.05 16:50:42 ] Omber Zombie > (end)
[ 2009.07.05 16:51:00 ] Meissa Anunthiel > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:51:14 ] Erik Finnegan > I know, this is not really going to solve it. But would it be a step into the wrong direction ?
[ 2009.07.05 16:51:25 ] Omber Zombie > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:51:30 ] Erik Finnegan > OZ please
[ 2009.07.05 16:52:05 ] Omber Zombie > yes, patching the current agent system would be a waste of time - as i said the last time this was raised, the entire mision system needs an overhaul, not just extra agents and lp boosts (end)
[ 2009.07.05 16:52:21 ] Avalloc > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:52:38 ] Erik Finnegan > I'm discussing options for player-generated missions for the big re-factoring....but that still needs work....
[ 2009.07.05 16:52:41 ] Erik Finnegan > Meissa
[ 2009.07.05 16:52:43 ] Meissa Anunthiel > I have first hand experience of running missions in lowsec and 0.0, and have seen numerous other people do so. (including a gang of 50 russians running L4s in morosses in lowsec). Just as a side note... Not saying a boost wouldn't be nice. [/end]
[ 2009.07.05 16:53:14 ] Erik Finnegan > ok
[ 2009.07.05 16:53:17 ] Erik Finnegan > Avalloc ?
[ 2009.07.05 16:53:42 ] Avalloc > For what its worth, running missions in 0.0 is a double-edged blade.. you run them for same faction as npc rats in area, so you can't rat and mission run unlike in Empire.. crappy choice there
[ 2009.07.05 16:54:04 ] Avalloc > kill rats = no missions
[ 2009.07.05 16:54:53 ] Avalloc > mission reward in 0.0 would need sizeable boost and lp stores rebalanced over all pirate factions
[ 2009.07.05 16:55:22 ] Avalloc > some get great lp reward, (slave implants) others don't
[ 2009.07.05 16:55:25 ] Avalloc > (fin)
[ 2009.07.05 16:56:09 ] Erik Finnegan > Well, NPC agent missions should not be a major driver to go to (or sustain your life in ) 0.0.
[ 2009.07.05 16:56:40 ] Dierdra Vaal > (note: vuk has arrived)
[ 2009.07.05 16:56:46 ] Vuk Lau > sry guys
[ 2009.07.05 16:56:56 ] Vuk Lau > i was 100% sure meeting is starting 17:00
[ 2009.07.05 16:57:04 ] Vuk Lau > my mistake
[ 2009.07.05 16:57:05 ] Dierdra Vaal > the MotD was in error - I apologize
[ 2009.07.05 16:57:12 ] Vuk Lau > ah
[ 2009.07.05 16:57:46 ] Erik Finnegan > OZ, I would like the issue to sound like : when agents are again added/changed/,... then have this new focus.
[ 2009.07.05 16:57:49 ] Avalloc > !
[ 2009.07.05 16:58:13 ] Erik Finnegan > It is not a "fix agents" issue
[ 2009.07.05 16:58:16 ] Erik Finnegan > Avalloc ?
[ 2009.07.05 16:58:39 ] Avalloc > Erik, npc missions are in their own sov areas where anyone can dock.. why shouldn't that be big motivator to bring people out to 0.0?
[ 2009.07.05 16:59:06 ] Avalloc > risk = reward
[ 2009.07.05 16:59:27 ] Avalloc > right now empire people can make huge isk for zero risk in missions
[ 2009.07.05 16:59:59 ] Avalloc > (fin)
[ 2009.07.05 17:00:00 ] Erik Finnegan > Well, in my opiniion 0.0 should be player-driven mostly. I don't want to lose that nature by making NPC missions too important.
[ 2009.07.05 17:00:24 ] Avalloc > it generates income
[ 2009.07.05 17:00:24 ] Dierdra Vaal > !

[ 2009.07.05 18:19:37 ] Dierdra Vaal > one could argue the lack of a visual indicator can provide a tactical advantage. Would the first titan been killed if it had an indicator like this? How do you feel about this aspect.
