Excelent, thanks for the response here. Just an observation though, they don't all have to convert to freedom fighters. That doesn't work for everyone's RP, such as Electus Matari. Ushra'Khan and the like will deffinately find that a great addition but Electus Matari and NMTZ for example is more likely to desire to turn them into productive members of society instead of fighters.
How about a structure requiring comodities, based on the reactor design for POS. So like you put a slave in and something fairly nice and fluffy and end up with the possibility of a science graduate and such. Or it could go wrong and he could turn into a homeless person. Put the slave in with a khumaak or some light arms, and they turn into the freedom fighter.
And converting freed slaves, put them in with guns and they make Kameiras. Put them in with Pax Amarria and they become slaves. And special secret spices added to make elite slaves and such. Again, it could go wrong and they end up with something filthy.
So in short, please make it complex and interesting with potential to backfire on all sides.

I would love to see slaves having both a RP weight (other than station/dead weight) as use for LP, for Starbase fueling (definitely RP) or even as a cross-racial bonus. (for example, I have a Minmatar working for an Amarr corp doing Amarr missions, to increase my standings with the hostile agents, they could ask for me to bring x slaves before I could start missions with them, and vice-versa)
This would solve the "I want to do Gallente missions, but I don't want to have to build Minmatar relations first, or build a gallante char!"

Well, I came across a few 'freed' slaves loitering in my hangar, and as they were unwilling to resume their former, er - careers, I just shoved them in a jetcan and popped it.. problem solved! MUHAHAHAHA!

hmm interesting. so you can free slaves at minmatar stations and enslave people in amarr stations right?
but, how do you haul the slaves to the minnie station to free them, without slaves being confiscated/destroyed by the customs?
this needs some thought me thinks.

you can always smuggle them with the right set of skills or a contract to a smuggler. But I agree it would be better if there was a way to do that "officially".
On the topic: signed. RP-wise it is a shame for a Matari to store slaves in a hangar with nothing to do with them.

Summa summarum,
In the future there's going to be a starbase (POS) module that allows the conversion to and from slaves.
Wishlist includes the following operations (possibly distributed as 'blueprint' style 'training packages'?):
- Slave -> Freed Slave (Minmatar)
- Freed Slave, Refugee, Freedom Fighter -> Slave (Amarr)
- Slave -> Kameira, Janitor, some other 'useful' vocation (Amarr, or SoE for the peaceful vocations)
- Freed Slave, Refugee -> Freedom Fighter, Janitor, etc. (Minmatar, or SoE for the peaceful vocations)

Why does it have to be POS? Could be in a npc station as well. RP-Wise it would make sense.

Can the Gallente turn them in to exotic dancers? Pretty please?

Well if it's at a POS then there is an incentive to place the structures that do this in low-sec where customs aren't an issue. This would match up with CCP's general policy of encouraging us to go into the more dangerous parts of the world.
Seems fine to me.

Just a really random thought, not sure if it's cropped up yet...
You all speak of changing slaves into 'free slaves' and then whatever, couldn't you make it so that the RP'ers can turn them into (after a bit of work) something that other players can actually use? (ship crew?), something that actually has a real effect on the game as a whole. It would really deepen the impact the RP'ers have, rather than it being a more internalised thing, it effects everyone.

It would be nice to have a prison pos where you can store captured pods who have to mine a certain amount of ore until being released somewhere back in empire.

Utterly agreed, and its one of the Amarr/Minnie conflicts biggest sticking points. There is presently no day to day reason for a non-rp'er to trade slaves or their free equivalents.
I think Amarrian control towers should consume slaves to run those unsafe and dirty reactors in place of robotics or whatever. Why use expensive, sophisticated automation whebn you can just chuck another slave inside?
The starbase structure concept sounds promising, just please make it something that does not require sovereignty or a large tower to mount it on. Sticking it up in low-sec should do fine.

We at fimbulwinter would rather like the chance to turn slaves into militants, freedom fighters, and terrorists.
It would also be very very very very cool if we could use these people to affect the sovereignty or control of stations in contested regions.
Say Fimbulwinter or UK placed 20k Militants in the station in Lamma (Bleaklands), in 7 days sovereignty could be contested, and it would shift to the Minmtarar republic.
Just an idea, im sure it would require more than the 45 seconds i put into it :P

Oh man oh man oh man. I'm wetting my pants already!
I loved having these offers about before and was just ready to write a petition about bringing the offers back (well actually I did, and then I got asked to file a bug report??? zuh...). Anyway, one google search finds this thread and I'm so glad to see others have the same feelings. My character is a Slave Trader through and through, up until now I've had to RP my way through it, but with this new system I will be able to devote my EVE time 100% to slave trading. You mention 'specialised training'; well if that means skills then I'll be anxiosuly clicking my way from I to V.
Thankyou!!!!

While its nice to add neat sounding RP features to the 0.0 control game...
Please bring back the official offers as well. Some of us are more interested in working with the Empire IC than beside it.

Why did you remove the Agent offer mails once a day or so anyways?
There is no reason we cannot have the LP shop AND the specific agent offers at the same time!
This way all the low and high end offers would still be in game...and special stuff like converting slaves and so on...

More like academic becomes slave if you're a programmer.

For the love of Eve, more features tied around POS grind!¼ Whilst we appreciate the thought, POS are not exactly flavour of the month. Its great if you bring in these new structures but at least let there be alternatives.

I can't say how excited I am of the possibility of running the underground railroad and refugee camp (you heard nothing, slaver scum :P) with actual ingame mechanics to support it.
Yet I have to agree with Gaven (I did not say that, either :P), having also the official offers back, or in any case something you can do on the stations with the factions would be good too, to provide for those of us who prefer to really be loyal IC to the factions in the game. Maybe make it so that you can do it much more effectively with the POS structures than by grinding missions?

Good news. I'm looking forward to the near future then.
An option for the same to happen through agent interaction is needed as well. Would be great if this could influence standings too.
