Intergalactic Summit

I don't think so. Nor do I think it is best abolished by refusing to accommodate to freed people because they were bought who freed them.

What does that question have to do with your and Mr. Ran'shad's expressed disbelief that someone would buy people (below market price, even) for the sole purpose of freeing them?

Don't let the pro-slavery mouth breathers bother you Gaufres. You just keep doing what you are doing. Let us know if we can help in any way.

If he were oh so committed to the cause of freeing all slaves, I have several thousand he purchase from me, however it wil lbe well above current market price.

I am willing to bet that he won't be quite as committed to the cause when it drains his wallet.

One conversion over millions ? This sounds like a very small success ratio.



Be cautious, some people right here in this discussion might, whatever you say, tell you that you are actually a monster supporting slavery, because you worked for the Empire, no matter what are your deeds in reality.

So, just to see, I am sitting in Amarr checking the price of slaves in the heart of the Empire. Regional Average is right at 800 ISK each. You said you had several thousand to sell, so I am going to call your bluff. Without buying any off any market, I want you to reduce your own personal holdings by 2000 slaves. I will pay you 5 times the going rate or 4,000 ISK each for a total of 8.000,000 ISK. You are not to break up any families or cause any harm to those you are going to sell to me.

When the transfer is done, they will be transferred to safety as soon as possible.

So, what do you say? Is it a deal? Who has more resolve? I am willing to put my ISK on the line to prove a point.

It is so very sad how quickly you set a price on the life of another human being. You have proven my point that to you this is about ISK and your own ego, publically flaunting how 'great' you are for all of the cosmos to see. It is unfortunate that you simply do not get it. To us, slavery is not about profit. IT is about the salvation of the Minmatar people. Labour hones the body and focuses the mind, bringing them closer to true knowledge of God and His Will.

You would tear them away from this, sentence them to eternal damnation and set a price on them of a mere 4,000 ISK each? Which of us is the monster here?

Yes, it is a fact that slaves have become a commodity, similar to mercenaries, or exotic dancers. Sadly this is a fact of life in the market economy. I think that you would find that many of those who sell slaves are not holders, but mercenaries and slave traders of all races. Those of us who buy slaves do so with the intention fo helping them find their place in the universe and become closer to God.

You still seem to miss a rather large point. You keep saying how it is "Amarrian Holders" that should be very upset about what you are doing. And they are, but not for the reasons you think. I'll give you a simplified explanation:

You can love it or hate it, but Amarrian slavery is different from yours in that there is the religious aspect to it. It is done by Amarrians to other races, with the goal of enlightening the slave. If we sell the slaves, we sell them to fellow Amarrians. That is why I find it hard to believe that your clientele is exclusively Amarrian. In fact, no Amarrian that respects the laws and religion of his own people would ever buy from you or sell to you. And why should they? You are an outsider to us, hardly someone who should own slaves. It is therefore safe to say that you buy and sell slaves from anyone but Amarrian Holders.

Your form of slavery is most similar to that of the Angel Cartel. It is done by all races to all races indiscriminately, with the goal of profit. Unfortunately that profit is, as you already know well, very high. Which makes it a very common and popular form of slavery that strangely seems beneath the notice of even the most vocal abolitionists and anti-slavery organizations. Many of them react with surprise when they are told that Amarrians aren't exactly holding a monopoly to slavery in New Eden, and turn a blind eye to the Gaufre's of New Eden.



If we were dabating the pricing on the slave bazaar on Khanid Prime i'd agree. That is a big misconception here because... we aren't. Or did you really believe that the average holder pays dozens of millions of ISK per slave? The slaves offered and bought here, are bought by capsuleers on a capsuleer marketplace. And those capsuleers belong to all races, different factions, and every bloodline. This can be easily proven and verified by viewing public contracts.

And you want to spread the gospel of your religion by threatening to slowly torture and execute the families of those who betray you. Wow, what a jolly fella you are. No wonder people are lining up to join your religion.

The Ammatar Consulate and Khanid Transport are the other major sources for them.
