Folks, Us miners need these items. We can't convoy out in space without looking the part ya know. It's an instant plus 10% to immersion per item, and Is guaranteed to extend sub longevity. Now I'm not saying yall need to go all out, no need for brand names and such, and sure, people are gonna disagree, cause this won't give them an edge in nullsec peeveepee, but we have a solution for that!

Let them wear the hats of their kills!

No, I'm not trolling, and I'm 200% behind this. Support your Eve working class today!

Trust me, you can be both trolling and 200% behind something.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

No.

One good thing about EVE is that is not a cowboys in space game.

CCP - Building ant hills and magnifying glasses for fat kids

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

Who said anything about Cowboys? We're talking about basic Convoy life here. I didn't say anything about Spurs, button up shirts, jeans, wife beating, herding cattle, wife beating, or riding horses.

How about a Copenhagan dip booster 10% targeting speed bonus - 10% to teeth whiteness?

When I noticed you mention wife beating twice I had a 'Blazing Saddles' moment...
I'm better now.

As someone who deals with truckers in RL on a daily basis I can honestly say we really really don't need anything that intensifies that kind of experience in the game. Or should EVE imlement the 'hasn't showered in ten days', 'can't read a map', or 'can't be bothered to read signs' elements that are so endearing to this line of work?

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.
