One Man's Stand Against the Finless Thrasher

So I recently discovered that the Thrasher's signature solar panel fins are no longer visible in game. You can see them there briefly as the ship decloaks, but once visible in space they disappear.

I consider this to be a travesty. In order to protest this abomination, and because I feel that no Thrashers deserve to live without their solar panels, I am launching a campaign to destroy all of my Thrashers. Since this desecration is so vile, I feel that only CONCORD and Faction Police can muster the firepower to purge the evil.

Behold, my first Thrasher Purging!

Unfortunately, the gate sentry guns killed my Thrasher before CONCORD could arrive and apply damage so the full purging doesn't appear to be showing up on killboards. But I assure you, the Thrasher WAS purged.

This is a travesty. It looks so naked :( Poor little naked thrashers flying around completely exposed in cold space. Sad

If I had a nickel for every time someone said women don't play eve, I'd have a bag of nickels to whack the next person who said it..

Why would you strip the ugly-beautiful thrasher of it's wings? WHY CCP? WHY? Sad

This was completely unintended. Sorry about how naked the Thrasher looks, we are fixing it up today.

Hey guys.

We have fixed up the Thrasher and Cyclone, but the Saber and Claymore were not as straightforward and will be addressed as soon as possible. Look out for the fixed Thrasher and Cyclone tomorrow.

Sorry this slipped through!



Hopefully the Thrasher is getting its fins back after DT today

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Glory be to CCP! My very last Thrasher has it's fins back!

So concludes what was arguably the shortest, one-man suicide gank campaign in the history of EvE. Lol
