I have noticed on my jumping around the place that cans advertising religious messaging cropping up all over the place. Sadly it is the Christians that have instigated it and that annoys me.
This GAME is about relaxing - getting immersed in an alternate reality that has little to no bearing on many things in RL - politics and religion included (Eve roleplaying scenarios excepted). In my reality I do not include religious messages or do I want them and I want to see if they can also be removed from the game.
MY petition:
Either 1.) I move to have cans carrying ALL messages removed from the game AND/OR
2.) remove the capability for messages to be placed on cans AND/OR
3.) Give messaging cans a space life to self destruct
If you back this motion, pls post with +1.
If you have an alternative and possibly better suggestion that achieves the same end with reduced programming requirements, please post that here too.
I am aware of my own ignorance and have checked my emotional quotient - thanks for asking |

Why didn't you just open a petition ticket and report them?
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'Hodor'. |

I actually don't think it's against the rules. This is more of a discussion on how the community as a whole feels about religious preaching in Eve.
Personally...I don't like it if it's outside of RP context.

And the point is? I mean, are you not allowed to warp off until you have read every single last one?
It is honestly one of the easiest things to ignore in the entire game, saying those things are annoying you is like saying google-ads annoy you, except that couldnt possibly be because cans dont use your recent internet history to advertise and get you in trouble with your girlfriend.
But seriously, if you dont like what they say, dont read them or look at them, its easy, kinda like ignoring all the contract scam-spam in jita/amarr. |

Second this. I don't have cans or containers of any kind on my travelling overview. Works great. If I have some need to look at a can, that's just a tab away.
My overview doesn't block characters with names like "Atheistic Dawkins," either, but dude can get down with his Dawkinsian atheism all day for all I care. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg to have someone expressing a real-world belief in EVE. It breaks my immersion somewhat, but it's far from the only thing that does.

You're playing from the old Troll 1.0 handbook which states the main Troll fuels are - Religion, Politics and Sexual Orientation and/or Race.

That is pretty much the full list. It's CCP's servers, so it's their rules, and there are no GÇ£natural rightsGÇ¥ that aren't covered by the second point.

Yeah I aren't religous in anyway, but how about **** off? People like you sicken me. Everyone has a right to believe what they want, so stop trying to tell other people what they can do...
If you want to wardec them in game or whatever sure, but don't go harping on about how religion is wrong and you don't want to see it anywhere because its wrong in your eyes...
It's human nature to want to explore. To find your line and go beyond it. The only limit, is the one you set yourself. |

Keep it out of our game period. Peoples beliefs are their opinion in the real world but this is EvE. No talks of religion unless it is Amarr or something. I agree with the OP completely. |

Religion is like a ****. It's nice that you have one, and totally fine to be proud of it. Just don't go waving it around in public, shoving it down peoples throats, and showing it to children.

Let me ask you something - have you read any of the chats while playing? Or listened to comms? Does none of that offend you? But some obscure can floating about with a Christian message offends you?

To be honest, I hate it when people try to inject RL into my MMORPG. I get enough real life. If I didn't, I'd be doing some of it instead of playing video games. But its not like I get to have a say over how someone else plays the game or spends their isk.
With that in mind, I think I'll anchor some cans with New Order slogans around so the OP has something better to read.
I have 5 different chars that I play. This may be my main, or maybe not. I have no idea. |

I love uptight people who have nothing better to do.
After a few years I don't even bother to read the stupid cans.
But go ahead, it's an energy sink. Have fun.
Hopefully players will start putting all kinds of politically incorrect crap in can labels to energy-sink all those douchebags and ruin their time. Maybe it'll shorten their lives and we'll have less of them.
Ohhhhh doesn't it just make you sooooo mad? Umad?
As I recall, it was this sort of ninnying nanny crap that got the pleasure hub removed. So let's see - ah yes wipe all religion from the game, don't even let the Amarr RPers do it. Why not? We lost Gallente pleasure hubs - and probably to some bible thumpers too.
Eventually PVP is going to be considered bullying. It's only a matter of time before some kid hangs himself in the closet after getting awoxed or ganked. The media will use it to get whatever scandal going on off the news, as a distraction, and then you'll have parents who suck at parenting clamoring for "something to be done".
And CCP, being in Iceland will tell the American nanny-statists to shove it. Hopefully. |

Why do people get annoyed by seeing stuff they don't believe and/or don't care?
Also eve has a lot of politics
And to end here is an alternative remove cans from brackets and overview and your problem is problem solved |
