I know that some of us take part in verry large fleet, corp, and alliance battles but have you ever thought of having a marker you can place there, as in a monument to what occured there as well as including a short text about what occured there, " of course you would have to type that up yourself ", but it would allow us to express ourselves in another totally different way; that and it would allow us to honour or fallen at the sites of these vast memorable battlegrounds.

Most likely 'time to destruction'


Alternatively, 'time to dong'

"time to ****" its the phrase coined by CCP to measure how long will it take player to create a **** using this feature. Used to asses the degree of freedom given.

It wouldnt be long till someone spawned these all over the place, or put one up saying

"it was on this spot where Wilks Checkov first had [censored] with a space goat. He went on to do this many more times in the surrounding area."

Or other forms of spam etc.

Limit them to one per system. If you want to anchor another, you have to blow up the existing one first.

About TTP: if they're limited, it shouldn't be bad. Look at station names for example. Worse cases could be petitioned for removal.

Have to agree, 1 per system would not be bad, and petition if someone does a royal screw up with naming it, or doing a "foul" description.

I think you mean 'purely symbolic' rather than pointless. But that's probably a distinction without a difference.
