Remove the max drone limit for supers so that the number of drones that can be controlled is limited only by bandwidth.

Then watch a cloud of Hobgoblins devour the trollceptors like a swarm of locusts.

BEST IDEA EVER:

Drones that launch drones! Imagine a super launching its massive horde of fighters and then ALL OF THEM launch 5 hobgoblins! Never have to worry about frigates again!

Random power cuts in stations. Twisted Ejecting everyone in whatever ship they happen to be in. Pirate

I have the best idea : make a brand new Multi Purpose MINING Vessel (MPMV)
The baddest idea is: not to make it....

Entosis modules on frigates.

EWAR module that forces pod ejection on the enemy ship (with no damage to either the ship or the pod).

Bubble version of the above: ships go to their intended warp arrival point but pods get dragged into the bubble.

"Cloak" that doesn't cloak you but makes your ship appear to be a different type of ship, so your industrial can look like a battleship, until shot at of course.

"Scatter" bombs, for blob dispersal (or bumping), no damage, just ships get pushed outwards by the expanding explosion shockwave.

Paint bombs, no damage, just all ships in the area become pink, orange, neon, or whatever color.

Just Married ship skin, with rainbow tractor beams so you can tractor cans behind in multicolor.

Raid marks above ships, a la WoW ("star is primary, diamond is secondary, moon is ecm, fighters on the orange, ignore the shield").

Chat boxes above ships like the WTZ comic had, when you decide to remove local.

FC capability to actually turn a bunch of lights on the next gate green or red for the fleet, with pedestrian walk signals for LOLz (set a route, designate all gates red or green, then individually click on each gate to flip it green or red when the fleet waits near it).

Animated solar panels on the Minmatar ships (simulate as if the panels are solar wind sails or flapping wings).

AFK flag that changes the engine trails to zzzzzzz's.

Drunk flag that makes any ship sway in the wind like Minmatar ships do.

Visible implants on the character portrait, so we can tell before ganking (they should look like electronic lamps of different colors, with visual size indicating cost).

Option to sort the overview by "ship value."

Change cloaked ships to (not show up but) add a blank row in the overview when on grid with you.

Add NPC followers. Give them the seeker AI.

Relax and enjoy when the entire first 3 pages of GD are "Dammit, Lydia!!!" threads.

I honestly feel like I just read fifty shades of dumb. --CCP Falcon

Quafe could, arguably, be the equivalent of Mt. Dew, but there's no Cheetos in-game.

If a pod is killed by a direct blast from a Doomsday Device then the dead toon is instantly biomassed. The magic consciousness transfer tech can't bring you back from that.

The character sheet would need a tab for your Last Will and Testament, specifying who gets your stuff if this were to suffer this fate.

Allow a thread to go on 167 pages and over 3300 posts when the interesting and/or funny stopped at page 10 or so.
