Would anyone be intrested in protesting at this years fan fest over CCP's reluctance to tackle EVE's bot problem? I was planning to go dressed as a robot performing annoying repetive actions, disturbances and sketches to highlight EVE's bot infestation. I think it would be ace if a few of us got together to do this for 1 day at least to adavertise the plight of the honest EVE player and let CCP feel our pain in bad PR.

Sounds like a thread for GD or the off-topic boards. This is where you post in-game ideas, not OOG ones.

It's game related enought it's about bots which are in game and encouraging CCP to remove them or have every game mag/blog reporting about those pesky robots in fan fest :)

It could be hillarious and just the kick up the ass CCP needs to purge bots.

Interesting you should say that. I got shouted down for posting an in game request here not long ago. Specifically

I think bots need to be a very high priority and need to be dealth with but I don't think protesting like a bunch of idiots at fanfest is the right way to get the point across. If you want to make it clear that we don't want bots then bring it up at the round table multiple times until they get the hint.

Naw protesting would be good it will harm CCP and EVE's image in a way it deserves. Even if we don't get into fan fest we can do it outside for one day. We'll have a robot msk box on so it won't effect the next days.

I think public protests these days are about as useful as a hunger strike. Not saying don't do it...hell...I am not sure if Iceland is a "free" country, so I won't use that line but it can't hurt. I just don't think it will work is all. Awww heck...it will be funny to watch on youtube. Do it!

Well, it's not an RP board, so that would be the reason why likely.

Yep...and honestly....this sort of thing should be like in the "Events forum" or whatever its called.

This has no bearing on mechancis or balance and honestly most people who protest Bots are doing so in ignorance.

I don't deny their exsistance...but people "assume" that CCP is doing nothing because they THINK they see a bot.

Waste of time...don't let me stop you...but this is not the place for it.
