Noble Exchange: We Want Bathrobes

Now I'm not going to complain about being a Capsuleer. I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to fly around the galaxy and to be immortal. There's just one thing that I'm finding extremely stressful.

When I dock in a station, I'm expected to present myself, fully dressed, hair neatly groomed, at the control panel in my Captain's Quarters. I don't have a problem with that. That's part of being a pod pilot. I'm just finding it very difficult to climb out of my pod, scrape off the amniotic goo, wash and blow dry my hair, put on my boots, trousers, top, and jacket, and climb up that ladder in less than six seconds.

If the Noble Exchange could produce a range of bathrobes for capsuleers then it would make my life a lot easier as I wouldn't have to worry about doing up belts and buttons, and removing goo from my lower body while I scramble out of my pod. There must be other pod jockeys who are having similar problems and would purchase such a product.

My god, you've got a point... how I long to kick back and unwind in a bathrobe.

edit: perhaps you should consider a pod-suit? Helps keep the yuck out.

Dont that just steal proverbial the "milk-in-the-fridge?" I would much rather be ready for the pod in a moments notice, one of the reasions I wear as little as possible. My simple black tube-top bikini gives me the support, and pants and simple top make for a quick com-ready apparance.

I would like a nice, tight plugsuit though. I'm in support.

Agreed.

The Nex needs some at-home, unliklihood of visitors, casual wear. Starched, breast pocketed uniforms are all well and good for imagined nights out in the station. But some concession to our need for recuperation, and yes even not-in-spaceship sloth and slovenliness is needed.

And it should also sell pets. I mean as long as we can walk around the place in our bathrobes we should have a dog or a cat to sit on our laps as we watch the tele from our couch. We really need some downtime to unwind and calm down from the last screeching victorious space battle, or the most recent mind bending lurch into a new clone from being podded.

Added bonus the pets could test our walking in a crowd abilities for whenever the door might open.

CCP, there are off buttons for ship explosions, missile effects, turret effects, etc. "Immersion" does not seem to be harmed by those. So, [u]please[/u] give us a persisting off button for the jump gate and autoscan visuals.

Hah! The only time I ever wore clothes is when I had my portrait taken!

Yes. This, yes.

You may wish to adjust the personal settings of your standard rapid envelopment and deployment nanite based capsuleer attire. The discreetly integrated capsule shower and dry cleansing a pod provide generally synergize with them with little issue. Have you checked your capsule's nanite supply levels?

Tuxford events now and again have a habit of creating socket errors that can in some cases lead to confused nanites and slightly embarrasing results in terms of attire states or lack there of. Capsule Nanite cache clearing does tend to repair such issues, thankfully.

Nothing like a socket full of confused nanites to get a party going.
