A box of Kleenex I could understand.
If that is a bother to some people, then perhaps the CQ is going to need a box of tampons.

If this is a troll then kudos to you 10/10. If not then please do everyone a favor and uninstall every game that allows you access to other humans and never leave your home again. |

On the plus side, I discovered I had TWO ashtrays.
Edit: Make that five. I found a stack on another shelf. Assuming that's what they are, I think my character has a problem... |

Hey you think you have it bad.
CCP put a camel, a cowboy and an bunch of kid stickers on my ash tray. Its impossible for me not to be peer pressured or think its not cool to smoke. Oh how I need to smoke every time I dock. I will not be voting in the CSM election, so you need to go vote to make up for me. |

Ignore the fact we can take hallucinogens, uppers, downers, the live stock people, and the prostitutes; it's the ash trays that are the real morally questionable items in the game. There just isn't anything intresting on the front page of the GD anymore. Yawn! |

Quite handy once you get used to it as you never misplace them again and consequently don-¦t have to look for them. You can thank me the next time you undock just in time to pop this nasty wartarget camping your station and did not have to go in search for the keys to your spaceship first.
That gets problematic if you also smoke.

I've now taken it upon myself to count all the ashtrays in each CQ, because I've lost control of my life.

Seven! tut, tut... Also some cereal.

I'd say it's not as bad as gallente, but there are buckets of ammo lying around everywhere. I didn't know my item hanger equated to, "what can I stuff in my room?"

And I'll be the first to tell the OP to just chill the f out, already.
(@CCP: Please bring back more of the old "mature-themed" content ASAP, kthxbai.) There is a fine and proper artistry to wielding verbal scalpels, such that the crap-poster you've slashed doesn't even know they've been cut. But verbal bludgeons -- Those are just fun. |

Just show as for all other religions, those manipulated entire populations, used and some religions still use fear and horrible/inhuman middle age methods to dictate populations behaviour with no respect for life or individuals dignity.
Religions by their all fatso mega rich megalomaniacs leading them no matter witch, are no good for freedom or humans, they're worst than politics, killed more people and harmed entire regions more than whatever number or deaths by nuclear weapons or even more than single WW II (despite WW II dead numbers being in a smaller period of time) Not even talking about all the obscurantism period where human civilisation and progression stagnated for over 850 years and science/arts were considered as devil art leading to the death of some brilliant individuals.
Religions no matter witch just just be completely abolished, they have no place and they will never be forgiveable for everything they did/still do in our days.
Only science should prevail. brb |

My personal take on smoking is a pretty negative one. If smoking harmed you, and only you, I would have absolutely no trouble with it. You can do anything else you wish, no matter how addictive or deadly, and you wouldn't get a peep from me. The issue with smoking is...well...smoke, and its effects on others.
Case in point, in summer time when my neighbour two doors down gets on his front porch and starts smoking, I have to shut all the windows in my house because the prevalent wind carries the smoke RIGHT into my windows and all the front-facing rooms end up reeking of tobacco. He might very well end up killing me with second-hand smoke at some point. But since he's technically smoking on his property, there's f***all I can do to stop him. And being a pig, he refused to even consider it when I talked to him about it.
Beyond that, I really have no beef with smoking. In fact I think it should be tax-free and free coupons should be handed out to smokers. To speed things along, so to speak.
So OP I agree with you there. There's really no need for an ash tray in a game where you can't smoke anyway. Definitely sends the wrong message. |

While your personal experience is unfortunate, I think in the context of EVE, it sends the perfect message. That of course being, you're going to die eventually anyway. |

So, people complain because there's a pixel ashtray in a pixel room, in a game about spaceships ? No complaints about killing though hey ? I mean, an ashtray is so like "OMG", but death is cool. Hunting people down in a game is cool, killboards are cool.
I laugh when I think about how Op wants to worry about the image an ashtray portrays in a game, but nothing about death and destruction. Incredibly ridiculous, in the extreme. You have your priorities wrong. Very wrong.

I refuse to transport drugs, slaves, etc. I abhor killing and when in combat I try to disable my foe only. I have also formed protests in Jita against the cruel treatment of the Sansha. I perform a small ritual before harming asteroids.

Joke's on you, I switched from "analog" cigarettes to electronic nicotine vaporizers (almost exclusively PG-based liquids, VG sucks) almost a year ago, but I still have a couple of ashtrays in my room. They're just full with other junk now instead of ciggy butts. http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/User:Akita_T http://eve-search.com/stats/Akita_T T2 BPO poll : https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=114789 |
