CSM rep for Multi-Boxers

I know this is a horrible long shot. However, as I am considering running for CSM based on my alliance's pushing and nagging, I am feeling like we need alot better representation and PR with the rest of the eve community and devs themselves.

My main platform will be wormholes as well as alternative game play styles, multiboxing included. I do not feel I can campaign strickly as a multiboxer, not enough votes, but it is a large focus since I am a multiboxer from various other gaming communities but relatively new to the eve multi boxing front.

In regards to things I want to push for is:
- Greater respect for the multiboxing community.
- Better reception of legitimate CCP concerns about multiboxing.
- Easier ways to manage alts. (more income for ccp with more alts)
- Better static and defined rules in the TOS regarding multi-boxing.
- More recognition for multiboxing community concerns. (TOS, false reports, hate mail, etc.)

If anyone is willing to help me with this campaign please let me know, I need alot of it. If anyone can get me incontact with CEO's of multi-boxing friendly corporations and alliances please also let me know.

Re: CSM rep for Multi-Boxers

All of the major nullsec organizations are "multiboxer friendly", so this viewpoint is already quite well represented on the CSM. I imagine the wormhole rep(s?) probably also have plenty of familiarity with multiboxing.

Considering your points below:

- Greater respect for the multiboxing community - I don't care what other players think about multiboxing, and I don't think it is a CSM's role, or CCP's role, to try to influence this.
- Better reception of legitimate CCP concerns about multiboxing - I don't see any evidence that the CSM is not receptive to CCP concerns about multiboxing; the fact that CCP specifically banned certain input methods, rather than all multiboxing software, should be evidence that they are going about this right.
- Easier ways to manage alts (more income for ccp with more alts) - The only thing I can even think of here is being able to switch characters without relaunching the client, and CCP has stated pretty clearly that that is never gonna happen.
- Better static and defined rules in the TOS regarding multi-boxing - We have these now, they are very clear.
- More recognition for multiboxing community concerns. (TOS, false reports, hate mail, etc.) - These can all be dealt with under the current community policies; if you get targeted, petition it. If you get wrongly banned, appeal. CSM should not get involved in that any more than they already are, which is basically a platform to raise really egregious cases to CCP.

My thoughts on most of these things can be summarized as: CCP is acting quite clearly, the CSM is already involved in the appropriate manner, and pushing for policy changes like this are not what I see as the role of the CSM.

I like to multibox, but I feel my side of things is already quite well represented and I absolutely do not think we need a specific CSM member addressing these issues.
