hell it wont help with the marketing, but it is a much more descriptive name....

I hear you guys like descriptive names now

I also call for fanfest to be renamed suckerfest and the CSM to be called the placebo squad

make it so!

I wouldn't worry. The MMO community know what EVE is all about, good, bad and otherwise. Anyone who ever wanted to try EVE have done so. All CCP can do now is spin the marketing to get a month or 2 out of the expats now.

I would keep the name EvE:

How about "Risk vs. Reward Sandbox HTFU LOL"?

Profit favors the prepared

How has this not been suggested before? This needs to happen ASAP.
