EM refugee aid and educational programs do not include restrictions for as to how the individuals gained their freedom.

This is a commendable effort and we thank you for the hard work.

This has all the markings of another carriage on the STON underground monorail.

It will be treated as such.

Stoners by any other name...

Do be carefull with your shiny new toy. It would be a pity for your 'Freedom Liner' to smash upon the rocks of reality. Your attempts at corrupting and disrupting the activities of so many Amarrian corporations, and Imperial entities are misguided. All this to condem this generation of slaves to eternal damnation.

I have little doubt that your massive new toys will simply drive many independant slavers to band together and seek to pick apart your precious mobile city. Your announcement serves only to paint a target on your back, "dear slavers, here is a big, defensless target...." essentially you have announced a one stop shop for slavers. All they need do is cooperate and tear peel the steel from your hull, then they will have their choice of which slaves to keep and which to leave in your death trap.

Congratulations puppet of Ston.

I have christened the Obelisk the "Emancipate." I am less than twenty minutes from completing the necessary skills to pilot her. When that happens, we begin transporting approximately 2.2 Million former slaves to new Communities where they will begin self-government. Matriculation, the path to self determination, the path to free communities. I hope DSTON is ready and I hope others step up to the challenge soon.

I'll get right on that.

The logs are two in number. Corporate and personal. The total adds up to 2,283,131
log 1
log 2

I hope this satisfies the doubters. I am on my way now to pick up the first passengers.

Edit: I can also provide logs after all the passengers have arrived in the new Centers, if that is requested.

My one post in the speech thread should help you understand more on how we think compared to how you think. So far this condemning souls to hell that I have been hearing has been sounding very repetitive.

To put it how you think so you can understand. Maybe we non-Amarr actually like living in this hell you speak of... because to us it is our heaven. To live in your heaven serving as a slave and learning about your God is the hell for us.

To learn of the Amarr's source of truth is learning about lies in the eyes of others (such as Matari, and other races of slavery). To learn of the source of truth from others (like a Matari shaman) is a lie in Amarr's point of view. Everything/one has another view.

You should be able to understand well now on why things like this happen.

You know... with your threats on the destruction of the "shiny new toy" along with the other threats, I am not sure it would be the best of interest for your curiosity to be fufilled on knowing the final destination. If you had read, Mr. Numenor had also stated on them forming new communities and them beginning their own self-government. But sure... go ahead and believe that they will be living on a rock... maybe somewhere in wormhole space. At least they would live in peace there.



It's a big galaxy... not all systems are vastly poppulated, and not all uninhabitable places are what they seem to be.

I wish to take responsibility for confusion over how the Disciples of Ston plan to care for the influx of recently freed people. The confusion is partly due to my refusal to listen to the criticism of others over starting multiple forum threads. In those diffuse threads there are detailed descriptions of the infrastructure of what we are building, but who wants to read all that? As a result, there is confusion. So, I apologize for that.

Alright, I need to review a few well-known but often forgotten facts.

1. Customs laws and enforcements forbid capsuleer pilots from transporting slaves/ former slaves on to planetary colonies. Customs so strictly enforces these rules, that it simply cannot be done, certainly not on the scale that we would have to do it.
2. Orbital stations of today are massive constructions of human oriented infrastructure including all that is necessary to sustain and support large populations. We often forget that as capsuleers who rarely leave the "egg."
3. All those we rescue, house, feed, educate, train and otherwise care for are on board orbital stations. These stations have state of the art medical, nutritional, sanitational, and housing facilities. No one is abandoned on planets to fend for themselves without resources.
4. Planetary colonies that the members and friends of DSTON own, produce millions of liters of water, millions of grams of protein supplements, livestock, etc. Donations and purchases by DSTON account for millions of doses of medicines, servings of frozen commodities, even consumer electronics for educational and entertainment purposes.
5. Though the mathematics of our populations are great, the mathematics of our resources are enormous. Do we soon forget that power of the capsuleer both to purchase and to produce is beyond the normal non-capsuleer scale?
6. Gallentean and Minmatar Corporations and Security organizations operate freely and without hindrance in Amarr space. Gallentean society has in the past and continues to spend very considerable sums of ISK on the cause of Minmatar freedom.
7. The Costs of DSTON efforts are a drop in the bucket relative to the whole cluster. Our corporate support is tiny, financially speaking. However, our corporation partners benefit greatly in P.R. and politically by aiding these populations of freed slaves.

So for those who really do care about how these rescued ones will fare; they will fare excellently. To those who merely wish to criticize; nothing I say will satisfy you nor will you believe it. However, your criticisms will not stop our work. To it we are dedicated.
