You do realize that in a few decades, when society collapses, and thousands of years go by. Future humans will "discover" this monument with the time capsule inside. Then mistake it for the word of god. (In 10,000 years a laptop might aswell be a stone tablet.)

And entire religions will develop based on events and misunderstood quotes from our time and society. Wars will be fought over what version is right and wrong! People will be slaughtered in the name of the "Sun God" (insert name here.)

A new dark age will happen, where all scientific research is stopped from fear of change of those in power. Further lives would be needlessly lost. Until 1,000 years pass and people start to make scientific progress again. Solely based on the notion "you can't kill us all!"

Until, after a few hundred years, the social structure creates new and different forms of entertainment, even digital entertainment. And within that, a small group will stand out amongst the crowd and define itself to a generation.

A monument will be erected to honour those, designed by a artist during that time. Where they'd want future generations to know their stories long after no one remembers them.

Then, in a few decades after, when society collapses, and thousands of years go by. Future humans will "discover" this monument with.................

I love how history repeats itself!

I heard they were going to move it to the moon and bury it until it's rediscovered by monkeys. Monkeys in spacesuits.

Stranger than fiction.

Someone please make a character named **** Cockrocket just before the cutoff date. I want that engraved forever.

The censored word is a colloquial term for Detective. Funny that cockrocket is not censored by the profanity filter.

...yet.

I just undocked for the first time and someone challenged me to a duel. Wat do?

Why would the filter filter out a "male chicken rocket"? I think that iceland subscribe to English English, not colonial English.
If you don't believe me, look at this compliation of englishmen saying "male chicken" on national television before the watershed.

Someone needs to make sure that the first words they read when coming here are the ever timeless "don't be a ****." Seriously, if that was at the start of every religious scripture, it might just be enough given how much weight certain young Earth creatards give to the beginning of a certain bible.

And welcome to the temple of EvE, where we worship the pantheon of 500.000 gods.
We will now chant 'HTFU', in which we will name every single one of them!

Here I used to have a sig of our old Camper in space. Now it is disregarded as being the wrong format. Looking out the window I see one thing: Nothing wrong with the format of our Camper! Silly CCP......

Wars shall be fought between the followers of "LOL YerFace1337" and and the fanatics of "Farting Bob".

Of course, the truly devoted of the almighty "Coffee Rocks" are the ones with the REAL god.

Those who survive 10,000 years of darkness to rebuild society are bound to bigger cocks than we can ever aspire to be. They'll call us the gentle creatures of the snow and hold EVE's graphics in same regard as we hold cave drawings today. Primitive and cute. Species name: "LOL-broni-ominoid."


Oh, who am I kidding. They'll probably think it's a monument to Iceland's fairies, each name belonging to one of the wee fairy Huldufólk.

Recent digital excavations suggest that, prior to the war between the LOLists and the Bobists*, a sectist war between the majority group known as the Pure LOLists and a minority group (variously called the YerFacists and the 1337ists) occurred. The Pure LOLists eventually prevailed after a (digitally) brutal war, in which many atrocities occurred.

Tragically, all of the stellae's inscriptions regarding "LOL," "YerFace", "1337", "Farting, "Bob" or a cryptic individual known as "Coffee Rocks" have been effaced.

*Ca 2013 or 2014, a cryptic "Bob" pseudo-religion, perhaps sharing beliefs with the Flying Spaghetti Monster sect, but not necessarily derived from it, arose among the multinational EVE secret society. The connection between the Bob crypto-deity and the Farting Bob monument inscription remains in controversy.
