Hello everyone.

Just a thought i was thinking.
The 50th anniversary for Doctor Who is coming up.
So i was thinking, Maybe Eve could put in a TARDIS as a Shuttle.
The TARDIS is the best thing too put into a sci-fi Game and would be a huge hit in my opinion.

I hope everyone will agree with me and give me your thoughts.

Yeah, I'm sure they wouldn't have any copyright issues stealing the design from another company. It also makes absolutely zero sense in the eve universe. So beyond being illegal, and making no sense, I guess it's still a pretty bad idea.

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Well, actually..the TARDIS can go anywhere in Any time and any universe so why not a visit into EvE Lol we already have the monolith from 2001....i can see it already, the doctor as a mission agent in space in his smaller on the outside TARDIS, wanting you to save the universe from the silence...or the angel statues for that matter (most definatly the evilest bunch of em all)

Not to be a stickler for whovian lore but travelling between dimensions is actually one of the few limitations of the tardis.

It's just a thought.
I'm sure it doesn't hurt the makers of eve too ask The makers of doctor who if they can put such stuff into there game.
You have too think, this creates more audience towards doctor who from people in this game.

And why not do something like this, it would put more story into eve, create some more excitement,
and show that This game is showing interest in what it's gamers like.

Whovian or not, adding more too this game is a good thing no matter what it may be, as long as it attracts the audience of the game.

How about let's not and say we did... You can even close your eyes and pretend your ship is a "TARDIS".

Protip: For maximum effect officer fit your ship and fly though nullsec.

Copyright would screw any chance of a TARDIS, but could they give us all another Character re-customisation? (or should I say, regeneration...?)

Give a man a match and you warm him for a day.

Set a man on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life!

I was eight years old when Dr Who started and the Daleks frightened me so much that my parents considered stopping me from watching it.

But apparently I cried so much they gave in and met me continue to watch it.

It would be nice to have a TARDIS shaped shuttle in the game for a week or so to celebrate the 50th birthday.

As much as I would love that, I think the BBC's lawyers might have something to say about it.

The Thing is, BBC would probably like it, because people will wonder "What is that from" and then end up finding out and watching Doctor who, so They would consider it just more fans for them, But as i said, this is a thought that i and maybe many others would like, it is not a request.

A TARDIS in EVE? Hello teleportation! Goodbye skill training time!
Maybe for the final expansion, the Doctor opens the EVE Gate and frees all of us and we could all end the game sharing a pint in London.
