Yeah, let's waste dev time on something so remotely useless that anything you can think about is time spent more useful.

Slaves are part of EVE lore. Other aspects of that lore are featured in game play, so why not slaves?
ISK can be earned from most other forms of loot drop, so why not from slaves?
The Minmatar government could have a Slave Emancipation Bureau that operates throughout all of New Eden except, obviously, the Amarr Empire (or possibly even there in clandestine form). The Bureau would pay a bounty for all slaves brought to them to be freed. To ensure legality this would obviously involve much research into the history and origins of the slaves, which would be an expensive undertaking for the Bureau that would eat into the amount of bounty payable. To offset this, and thus gain higher bounty payouts, capsuleers could obtain the expertise to do this part of the process themselves by training a 'Slave Emancipation' skill.

You know most EVE players care very little for lore. Based on your idea we should also allow the slaver hounds to be released on slaves.

When the advertising campaign says "be the villain", it's not kidding around.
But seriously, the game code treats slaves as just another market commodity. Probably the closest thing you can do to "setting them free" is to trash the commodities, and tell yourself you're just disposing of their chains and/or ID tags, or something else that'll help you sleep at night.
(In EVE lore, a lot of the ordinary people of New Eden look upon capsuleers as monsters. And looking closely, they may have a point.) "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be." - Kurt Vonnegurt |

I'm a half-insane, drunk privateer with a -9.7 security rating and am currently contracted by the Minmatar Republic to actively kill anyone in the Amarrian and Caldari naval fleets.
You should see also how I get crews for my ships! (hint: there are always convicts and prisoners who are desperate enough somewhere). Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective.

If you are about to get caught in a gate-camp... you can always tell them at they are about to see their last "tourist trap." Ever. Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective.

I'm talking about extending the usefulness and profitability of a game commodity, which is perfectly feasible.
You're talking about making game commodities interact with each other, which doesn't sound at all feasible to me, let alone profitable.

I have been in the Tribal Liberation Force for 7 months. Though i have taken time off from them, I have protocol to deal with them. If you want, ill take them off your hands and deal with them appropriatly. From the ashes of our defeat, we will be reborn. With these chains with which we are bound, we will become indivisible. To those who believe they can control us, we declare defiance. For the flames that burn our cities, we will douse in injustice's blood. |

I hear podding people can sometimes relieve them of their slaves. If you care about the well-being of the unheard masses you will pod as many people as possible. www.ensignyooch.wordpress.com

In the past +6 years I've been playing this game, it always good to see this topic get brought up every once in a while.
There's a lot of different types of 'Livestock' available in this game. It would definitely add a lot more immersion to this game if there was a higher purpose for them, different options available other than just sitting in station collecting dust or worse, being jet-canned into space.
Could even make it worthwhile for the player to pursue those options. Upon returning these items to the proper authorities, the player could receive a reward such as ISK, LP's or even Faction standing increase.
For example:
Tourists be returned to The Interbus to continue their vacation.
Janitors be returned to any station for work again.
Homeless be returned to Sisters Of Eve for help.
Marines and Prisoners be returned to any Military Corporation.
Slaves be returned to Amarr or Minmatar Corps.
Etc, etc, etc. The list goes on.

I have simply resorted to jet canning them and labelling the can "Freed slaves ready for pickup" and then imagining that the appropriate entities within the Minmatar Republic and Gallente Federation are doing their part.
"Trash Item" doesn't work for me. Just play "Unpleasant Horse" for a hint as to why :)

If we have to free the slaves, does it mean i'm wrong to enjoy the exotic dancers? The Pro Synergy Pilot is not just a fighting man, he is a salvage expert.-áIf it is lost, in the blackness of space, he will find it. If it has been destroyed, he will loot and salvage it. If it is in his way, he will move it. If he is lucky he will be podded 20 jumps from home, for this is the closest he come to being hero.

All it needs is the labelling of that item in the right-click menu altered to "Set free" when applied to slaves. |

A lot of people seem to post on this forum in character, I prefer not to because my characters opinion isn't necessarily what is best for the game. I think this thread has a valid point due to the amount of emphasis missions and lore and galactic politics puts on this subject. J'Poll wrote: I don't like bald people.

I might have some friends coming to join Tribal Liberation but they aren't technically my slaves.
They are interested if there is any special feature regarding slaves accessible from FW. lol
