Sissy Community goals, where is the conflict?

Hey, can you explain to me exactly what you mean by a 'sissy' and 'sissified'? Lol, I'm picturing some big hairy bald guy that looks like Alf Stuart from Home and Away writing this post. "These sissy kids today, don't even know how to make their own furniture!"
I can't agree more with the OP. The community goals have become boring for a while already.
I wish they could be more creative with new mechanics implemented (like some distress beacons spawning, containing transports under attack of pirates, and you would choose to earn some bounty claims there or/and pirate the transports to bring the commodities to black market, so you take part in each sides of the CG.
Or go scan some specific region / bodies of the galaxy...etc...
But no, all we have had so far is bring this to there, scan anything you want, kill there.

I'd be putting up more combat-related CGs, but none of the context I've written via CGs or Galnet articles have never been taken up.
It's more important than you'd think, as I remember reading some responses to early CGs like this and people responding with "Who are these guys? Why should I care?".
I have a CG submitted which is to, surprise surprise, ship cargo, in order to convert a stations economy, but that's stage one in a more aggressive campaign. Sadly, if it doesn't get through, I'm back to square one.

The two capital ship CGs in the last couple months were basically war blockades and created a ton of PvP war roleplaying.
Why on earth would anyone consent to that?
I don't blame 'em.
You're taking away every incentive for them to play in open, and then cry about them not playing in open? You're a joke.
You're the very reason people don't play in Open.
Reflect on your terms, reflect on what could possibly drive a win-win situation for players to play in open.
Waste someone's time and effort for your egotistical profit doesn't work obviously, and it shouldn't.
The only incentive a pirate can give right now is balance what he has to offer in terms of RP and excitement in exchange for a small sum of his profit. You're doing it completely wrong.
