Asking for a Dev or someone in the Art Department to address the removal of the Vagabond's distinguishing feature.

It would be great to announce the return of the Frill on July 15th after the Thukk You, Frill Me Event dontch'a think?

C'mon guys, the circumcision of the Vaga was a bad idea and it needs to be fixed.

In an effort to keep our battle in the eyes and minds of those who visit the assembly hall, I post again.

Terror is the heart of the Vagabond. Terror and the ability to complement that with pain. The Vagabond of Inferno 1.1 still delivers the pain, but without the terror it is but a shadow, a wannabe Thorax at 20x the price.

If all sails/wings were removed from Minmatar ships, I would be less affronted by the effort to streamline the fleet. But there are still wings, there are still sails, Minmatar still hold "In Rust We Trust" as the motto, even if the rust is now relegated to the interior corners of the cargo bay.

The frill is gone
The frill is gone away
The frill is gone baby
The frill is gone away
You know you done me wrong C-C-P
And you'll be sorry someday

The frill is gone
It's gone away from me
The frill is gone C-C-P
The frill is gone away from me
Although I'll still live on
But so lonely I'll be

The frill is gone
It's gone away for good
Oh, the frill is gone C-C-P
C-C-P its gone away for good
Someday I know I'll be over it all C-C-P
Just like I know a man should

You know I'm free, free now C-C-P
I'm free from your spell
I'm free, free now
I'm free from your spell
And now that it's over
All I can do is wish you well

Yes please give me back the Frill. (I also liked the spiky ramming bit on the front too but can live without that).

First they came for the Navy Comets
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Comet pilot.
Then they came for the ....ah you know where this is going.

The frill was what made the Vaga special.

Please bring it back.

I do NOT want to see protestring fans at Fanfest dancing "FRILLER" to make a point

Oh I do. I'm so up for making that happen. It'd be a fantastic warm-up act for CCP Soundwave's version of Shatner's Rocket Man that he failed to deliver this year.

I'm appalled that Thukker Mix would remove the wingy bits from the Vagabond. Bring back the frill. Returning to the game to see my vagabond de-frilled was well...not thrilling. Roll

Poor Vaga.

I fully support this proposal!

Although I will not be at Fanfest this coming year, a flash mob dancing Friller behind the camera during the interviews would definitely get our point across. If necessary, the frill is available for costuming effect as well: http://www.ebay.com/itm/110839378351?hlp=false&var=410088151678
