Disgruntled capsuleers have previously had some success making their point through in-game actions, most notably during last Summer's uprising which resulted in the destruction of the Jita Memorial monument.
Shooting a static structure is so last year, but a similar event would have the advantage of showing numbers, being something active and positive and it would also be a talking point.
So how about a protest march?
Thukk You, Frill Me! - The March Against the Vagabond Revisionists
The corporation responsible for the production of the Vagabond is Thukker Mix and their HQ is listed as the Thukker Mix Factory in the null-sec system of M-MD3B.
How about we organise a Stabber/Munnin/Vagabond gathering one weekend, when the entire fleet will muster at the Jita Monument, but will then take a leisurely protest tour of the major trade hubs, before heading out through low and null to "suicide gank" the Thukker Mix HQ.
This will have the following benefits:
- It will be an entertaining event.
- Numbers providing, it will be high profile.
- Screenshots could highlight the lack of visual difference between the models.
- The high-sec portion of the march will be very visible to other players.
- The low/null section will result in lots of explosions one way or another.
Any takers for a bit of friendly civil disobedience? Freebooted - Tech4 News - Incarna: The Text Adventure - Guild Launch EVE Correspondent |

I've updated my early post and I've started another thread in the In-game Events section relating to a "Thukk You, Frill Me!" Protest Event on Sunday 15th July.
It would be good to see you all there. Freebooted - Tech4 News - Incarna: The Text Adventure - Guild Launch EVE Correspondent |

It'd be a fantastic warm-up act for CCP Soundwave's version of Shatner's Rocket Man that he failed to deliver this year.

Great news. I'm glad we were heard. It's been a fun tubthump and a great excuse for some community content. Next update, how about removing engine trails for a laugh? I'm sure that'd get an enthusiastic response and we could organise a week-long sit-in (somewhere that serves beer). ;)

Congrats to all who took part in this successful campaign and thank you to everyone for their efforts. CCP's Art Department remains the best in the world and they listen too.
Check out the new frills in this devblog.
I wonder if they're aware of the desire for the return of the Federation Navy Comet's flashy light and the Vexor's "face"?... Freebooted - Tech4 News - Incarna: The Text Adventure - Guild Launch EVE Correspondent |
