Title: Famous (and notorious) Capsuleers of the Summit - gathering names (IGS Link)
Post by: Jade Constantine on 22 Mar 2011, 11:40

Please come and post on the IGS thread!
http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1485884 (http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1485884)

Ladies and gentlemen of the Intergalactic summit, it has been a while since we had a thread on corporate or alliance recognition where people are invited to give their brief impressions of an organization in a line or two, but these things can be informative and amusing.

I now propose we do something a little different and have a personal recognition test thread for the famous and notorious personalities of the Summit.

The way this will work is first of all: I will give an opportunity for any regular commentator here to respond to this thread, give a brief introduction on who you are, what you do, what your politics and ideals might be. The only restrictions I place are that you must have a current portrait enabled, be in a capsuleer-run corporation, and have a posting history on the IGS.

I’ll let this thread run for a week or so and then add the 30 or so most promising responses to a list (together with some of obviously notorious and famed capsuleers who we all should know) and post the actual recognition test thread to follow this one.

I think it will be an interesting exercise and will help people to understand a little more about the personalities and reputations at play here on the Summit. It’s my intention to be as inclusive as possible so don’t be nervous if you are a relatively new voice and personality. Everyone is welcome to respond so please...

Are you a voice on the intergalactic summit?
By all means introduce yourself!

For example:

Hello IGS! My name is Jade Constantine; I’m the Executor of the Star Fraction alliance and consider myself a revolutionary comrade of the Freespace Movement in New Eden. I’ve fought wars and campaigns across the length and breadth of New Eden and sacrificed much in the name of anarchist insurrection but along the way found love in the arms of an Amarrian heretic of high tempers and wild moods who joins me on the adventure of immortality.

Don’t be shy; let us know who you are!

(one post per pilot please, no crosstalk or debate or trolling would be excellent!)

Mind providing a bit of info on what exactly this is supposed to be? This has the potential to become a) Popularity contests. b) Pissing contests. c) E-peen waving. d) Forum-Warrior Gathering.

I don't mind any of the above, but I get the feeling there's supposed to be more to this thread than any of the above, so any chance of providing more information on the intent behind this venture?

Well its actually more or less as described. This thread is for people who I might not naturally add to a list of "famous / infamous" IGS characters to reply and make themselves known so I can add them to the full list next week.

Its not really about voting or popularity contest / anyone who does an interesting post will likely make it.

Then I'll add them together with "legends" of IGS (basically mouthy oldsters) and run the "recognition" thread the following week which will work like the corp/alliance threads run elsewhere. Basically inviting a one line comment on each name.

I'd be quite happy if all current active IGS posters appear on the list and get to comment on each other.

Like I said, I want it to be quite inclusive.

As for the hidden purpose ... well, I might use it to assemble a guest list at some point :)

/me nods.
Thanks. That makes more sense than what I wrested out of the official thread. My own reading comprehension was probably the problem, or I may have take a leap right into the language barrier and given myself a concussion or something.

Post by: Mizhara on 22 Mar 2011, 16:09
Yeah, don't think I have any characters that'd consider this to be something worthy of time and effort, more focused on space and such than Summit communication and recognition. Still, I'll probably keep an eye on the thing.

OOCly, I'd add Nikita, IC, Nikita really very likely doesn't give a damn about how internet famous she is. So if someone wants to put her, feel free, and go ahead and case her in a negative light if you want, that might make for some interesting social interaction (just be aware that there would be consequences for this)

Just go and sign up the pair of you!

It needs the bumps and since I know who you both are you clearly deserve to be on a list of IGS "voices" for the recognition test.

Post by: Morwen Lagann on 22 Mar 2011, 21:52
Thinking about it here. Morwen would probably need a bit of IC prodding to go and post on a thread like that of her own accord, even if I do think she's probably well-known enough that she might as well. ;)

Its a post by Jade so that there is a hidden agenda is a given.

Still figuring out what that agenda really is and watching things unfold will be great fun.  I may consider posting myself^^

It's not really a nomination thread like Revan's events along the years the Celebrity of eve
(http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1231266) for example, the last one.

I think this is supposed to be something like the corp/ alliance recognition test and at this stage he is just collecting names of new players or players that we arent really all familiar with to add to the list with other obvious names that will be there automatically.

That said I don't really mind if you want to nominate another Kaleigh. It all helps the bumps and will make it easier to assemble the list.

Okay just a reminder. This list is now live, come and give your impressions on the famous capsuleers of the IGS!

Smells too much of e-peen wavering to me and the exact reason why I rarely post on IGS in general. Guess the list is suited for the place then.

I used to like the corporation recognition threads, more showing of the acts of a group than the individual, but that was a long time ago.

Welp, good luck with that stuff. None of my characters are even remotely interested, though. I'm not too pleased to see Mizhara's name brought up there, but it's not like it's against any conventions or rules.

I will do a corporation/alliance specifically for RP entities after this one in a few weeks. But please do come and post on the capsuleer impressions thread anyway. I think its interesting for people to see how they are actually viewed by others and it does give people a way to get to know one another.

I got the feeling it was more about viral marketing to augment JF's recent recruitment efforts than as an attempt to waver any e-peens.   Or rather Jade convinced their enemies waggle their peens for the good of the Free space movement.    Silly loyalist pig-dogs.

Actually the hidden motive (tm) was to establish an interesting guest-list for a potential re-opening party for La Maison.

But thats actually a relatively minor factor - basically I loved it when Wren used to do these things and I felt somebody who everybody knew needed to step forward and do one of these in an open-handed and unbiased way.

Anarchists not being aligned with any empire or loyalist cause really are a fairly safe bet for neutrality in these matters.

Being called a hooker on the Summit isn't really something to get worked up over, imo - in the grand scale of things, there are far worse things Punx could have been called, even in RP; Morwen's been called stuff on the Summit that I'd consider far, far more offensive, and possibly even worth petitioning, had it not been IC.

Speaking of Wren, does anyone know what's up with him? I see him log on every now and then. I sent him an evemail asking if he's still Wren, or if he'd sold the character, but I didn't get a reply. My money's on "Wren sold the character". Which is kind of a shame, considering his history.

I believe Devlish bought the character. I think Ashar was talking about having contact with original-Wren OOC recently.
