Shouldn't the WH community have a say on the new system name?

SO we're getting named wormhole system with an NPC station upcoming... "like jita without concode"

What should the system & station be called, suggestions?

CCP - really called "Thera", shouldn't the wormhole community have a say?

Did any capsuleers get a say on the names of any other systems? No.

Are we gonna get a say this time? No

Why? I think you know why. Furthermore: who cares?

Lets just hope this new system creates excitement and content. From what I've seen so far in the past few weeks it appears that CCP is making real changes to WH space that may actually increase the population. That would be really cool, and I know that there are MANY people who have been pushing for this for a long time.

Here's hoping for the best.

Yeah, well, it's just like my opinion, man.

Call it whatever you like. You are limited only by your ability to inform others of its name...

I'm leaning Towards "Butt Hurt Overhere" would be a nice system name.

The names fine, as this is just one of the systems they are releasing (there are more).

Yaay!!!!

Pretty simple and clear, no. This group can't agree on anything except that they can't agree on anything. Lol What a fiasco system naming by committee would be...

Yes, if you have to ask yourself the question, just assume we are watching you...

From what I can see its not an addition to wormhole space as such but something that will exist alongside.

Thera -> Terra -> Terre -> Earth (in french)

coincidence?

Is this the lost solar system?

What?

Do you get a say in the name of the next car to be released by Toyota?
The name of the next version of Mac OS perhaps?
The name of the next chocolate bar released by Hershy's?

Nope, nope, nope.

Same here. CCP's business. CCP's naming rights.

We're the customers, not the company.

Since when does CCP listen to the community? And the WH community at that?

Fozzie did mention "its been there all along" heh but I'd be surprised if it was the case, its possible though as they seem to be going a different direction with the game at the moment and tearing up some of the old "rules".

EDIT: Actually the sleeper lore gives another possibility where you'd be both correct and incorrect at the same time if they've gone down that route - it ties into what The Mirror was supposedly originally about I believe.

I vote for "JESTER FOR ISD", but that's just me.

"Whiners paradise" would be a close second

No actually Thera is the name of the island now known as Santorini. It used to be a huge volcane until it had an explosive eruption that is suspected to have wiped the minoan culture.

Also if you look up the lore we already know that the Sleepers are one of the ancient races that most likely date their lineage back to earth. Their connection to the talocan and their travel technology would rather lead towards this being a hint towards that the closing of the eve gate might not have been such an accident after all? Pure speculation ofc. Others will know these aspects of the lore better than me.

As for naming the system I suspect this system was named by the sleepers themself? Considering their sudden appearence in kspace gathering research material about our current empires. Maybe we get sleeper level 4 missions. And grindibg rep/lp with the sleepers are needed for certain key bpc's for stargate production

Thera sounds pretty epic. Also got the feeling Thera will be the source of a lot of dead caps with several entities going in there and batphoning each other...
