Well i have gotten almost two chapters done in my book. and the ideas i have for my book is based off eve most of all, even though i do not use eve online ship names nor any other names that are copyrighted by eve online, but the ideals and how the empires act in my book are close with the induction of the human race in to the picture, along with the ideas of the human race trying to react to not knowing where earth is, so with that i have been posting up dates on youtube and i value any ideas that could be used in the book or any ship name ideas that is not copyrighted by ccp or eve online.
also this book is a long time project of mine but just trying to get ideas on paper to get going is the hard part if you like to write and you can dream of a tomorrow good bad or indifferent then you can write a book.
even though our feet are planted on the ground our souls fly with in the heavens on wings of eagles

Just making sure I've got that right.
not ripping it off, i am just inspired by how the idea of eve works and then the idea of throwing in another race in to the mix.
a what can be called lesser in way like tech and space travel, along the fact of ideals of loss of home.
but this book just follows a small group of people at this time, but in repeat to the game and copyright laws i am trying to avoid any use of the in game names but i also plan on staying away from eve ship design too, so any one that can draw good and has any ideas for ships hit me up.
but as of right now i am just needing ship class names. but it is up to you on what you feel that i am doing but this is all my idea, inspired by the ideal of eve and how the races interact too.

Versuvius Marii wrote:But it's clearly not your idea. You can't take Eve Online, write it up as a book and give it a different name. It's like calling your girlfriend the wrong name. I think your signature summarises your mentality nicely, mr loud and proud. I don't know if anybody ever told you, but being a redneck is not a good thing.
well it is not eve online ok it is a totally different idea ok and really if you are going to talk about copyrighting look at the name of the forum ok
if you was to look at the idea not the copyright laws then it might be some help.
but the idea new earth ideal is like eve but not the names nor the races.
but here is the jist of it
all peoples of the earth have been (by a higher power) tossed in to space each country or culture in a different area of space and with the many nations and belief in this world that is a lot but there are also other races that already live in and trade in some of the systems, so there in we have the idea for my novel there is no eve names in it.
and if you are trying to troll me it is really lame when i am trying to get ideas and all you are doing is trying to pick a fight on a forum

And also check out www.discoverygc.com the discovery team has done a fantastic job modding and otherwise adapting the old cult classic through the years. If your not familiar with the setting.. (you notice the coutries thing in a sec) MAIN group are Liberty, The Kusari, Bretonia and Rhineland. Of course there are others (aka, Corsairs - mix of latin/spanish). Might help you with your idea's. Agreed with the previous, don't infringe, but if you need a hand to pull yourself outside the box and explore a little, I understand...hopefully that helps.
thank you and i know the game freelance and i will look up the back story
