The big turn off people joining or supporting Amarr is due to them being the religious nutters in the game.
It makes no sense to a new player that immortal people who can travel in space would believe in magical space fairies.

Why not, after all the largest and most powerful space empire in the game bases its whole civilisation on it, whats wrong with a few podpilots decidng its good for them too.
Largest and most powerful? Dunno about that.
The reason I gave was the exact reason I and a few others I know didn't even consider Amarr.
No one said there was anything wrong with people picking Amarr.
I just said why many don't choose them.
Cause immortal people would really care about an afterlife....

Whether you are a carefree young slave, oiling your dreadlocks with Dr Bubbles Patented Cotton Tonic and pondering the emptiness of your life lived alone on the spacelanes, or a spacefaring warrior bishop with underwear troubles in need of a special hug from his special indentred servant, we here at MAMBLA can provide you with ideas to spice up your pod life.

" Buzz Aldrin, a Presbyterian, was the first person to hold a religious ceremony on the Moon. After landing on the Moon, he radioed Earth: 'I'd like to take this opportunity to ask every person listening in, whoever and wherever they may be, to pause for a moment and contemplate the events of the past few hours, and to give thanks in his or her own way.' He gave himself Communion on the surface of the Moon, but he kept it secret because of a lawsuit brought by atheist activist Madalyn Murray O'Hair over the reading of Genesis on Apollo 8."
Very Interesting:
Due to religious freedom Americans enjoy he could not have been sued for religious beliefs/preying.
I'm now curious as to who he thanked.
The people that got him there? The ones who were gonna get him home?
The scientists who designed the vehicles and early computer systems? His family for supporting him?
The spacesuit designer who stopped his innards flying out his mouth and eye sockets when he left the lander?
I wonder if he thanked an imaginary fairy who had nothing to do with any of it......... hmmmmm
The Amarr/Religious Nutjobs topic is a tough one cause I could break some brains and an eula quite easily while simply discussing an in game faction.
For the safety of my subscription and forum privileges I might let this one rest and go kill god elsewhere.
