Other Logos
We are not saying those logos are bad. We are wondering how our logo, which is steeped in five years of Eve history, is less immersed in the Eve universe then a man in a fedora, a bee, an electric shock with a sinister face, a dinosaur in a suit, a box of Chinese takeout, or an emoticon.


If you think the chinese takeout box is out of place, you should have seen our previous submission.. which was rejected for both phallic imagery and racism.

Can't wait to dual box my Dust toon and EVE toon on the same machine!

prease rink the previous rogo.

at reast yours was rejected on the grounds of racism and pharric imagery. ours is unfortunatery neither.


arso, if you can prove you are chinese, then i dont think it would be considered as racist but just masochist.

Approve the logo.

The logo does not violate any specific part of the EULA, and some crayon drawing jives better with the Eve Community, Fan Fiction, Official Ficton, and roleplaying than some approved Alliance and Corp names:

- CCP Alliance: The developing company has an alliance and has fleets under that name (as I understand it) Maybe you should make a more eve-fiction friendly name, like "Lets not approve legitimate logos"
- Ewoks Alliance needs to change it's name: There are no Ewoks in New Eden.
- Zerg Collective: Because Zerg are from the Koprulu sector which is not in this Galaxy.
- The Hatchery: Because the 9-pool ticker relates to Starcraft, wtf is starcraft?
- Zombie Ninja Space Bears Alliance: Because.....I don't think the Alliance name contributes to the Eve Community. Mostly because of the zomies and ninja part. (also, I hate zomies, and ninjas are pussies)

I support this entirely valid effort. I'm shooting at the jita monument right now. Give us the art department or we're coming back for CCP Soundwave.....again.

Also. I would like to take this opportunity to point out that Molden Heath by far has the best plexes and Lvl 5 missions in New Eden. There are VIRTUALLY no pirates in the area and little traffic. It's entirely reasonable to conduct Level 5 missions with a carrier for 6 hours without seeing another soul in space. See Klingt and Istodard systems for friendly level 5 agents. Don't be the only one not making 700million isk/hour. Also, fighters/drones/ammo are for sale in all Amarr stations. Hurry now, or you will miss out on the discount time shares. I don't even fit stabs out here guys. It's great. Also, let me know when your coming down so I can come welcome you and show you around.

Thanks guys,

Our alliance forums have had about 5 different threads devoted to discussing our logo in the last 2 years.
We've all adopted this logo in our hearts and minds and we like to think the greater EVE community has also.

As many have said, it is not offensive or racist in any way, so it should be allowed in the game.

We would really love to have this logo officially represent us in the next Alliance Tournament.

CCP art department, please reconsider our request and listen to the voice of the majority of the EVE community who also believe in freedom of expression in this game.

Your logo looks like crap and you should all be ashamed that is the way you chose to represent your alliance.

I fully support you in your efforts to get it accepted.

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!

I think I speak for all of Hydra Reloaded when I say we're very gratetful for the outpour of support we've recieved from the community. I hoped, after all the positive changes CCP has made recently, that they had finally learned to listen to what the players want, after all we are the people who pay their salaries, who make EVE come alive. Was I being naive? CCP, the ball's in your court now, do the right thing, give us our logo.

Can't see why it shouldn't be in game. They've been using it unofficially for ages and it's not offensive in any way.

Suprised CCP have a problem with this. Its a logo, its not racist or abusive. Why would they care?

I don't think either fits EVE's story particularly well, yet the second is in as Cascade Imminent's [FAIL] alliance logo. And this couldn't have taken longer than 5 minutes either. The smiley is froma smiley pack, the fail stamp is also widely available. If CCP is that inconsistent with logos, lets Hydra have theirs. Not all logos can be Atlas or CVA like.


Thanks for all the support so far!

Furthermore looking at existing alliance logo's there are several that breach copyright laws and yet are acceptable, while this fresh, unique and CONSIDERED logo is passed off because it doesn't please someone's arbitrary judgement of aesthetics.

Given all the other strange stuff which apparently was approved by CCP there is no reason to deny Hydra Reloaded their logo.

This was me posting there. If logos like [FAIL]'s can be in, so can Hydra Reloaded's.
