Protestors don't have jobs. Therefore they have no money. EVE costs money. Therefore no protestors.

What do you call those who were shooting at the Jita Statue then?

Here's a starter demand list:


1) Abolishment of all Sov.

2) CONCORD insta-spawning in every system, even wh space, and shooting ninja salvagers/can flippers.

3) A Titan in every hangar (with supercap docking of course).

4) The seizure and redistribution of the billions resting in the wallets of the top 1%.

5) An 85% PLEX drop rate from highsec rats.

6) Removal of the war dec system.

7) Suicide ganking a bannable offense.

8) Impeach Darius III and The Mittani for Crimes against Humanity.

9) Level 5 missions in highsec.

10) Delete Lowsec. Once your character goes below -4.5 he's auto-biomassed.

11) Ice belts in every system.

12) Cloaked ships explode when going AFK.

lets compare the last few presidents shall we?

clinton: managed to actually leave office with a surplus and a booming economy, while simultaneously dealing with incidents all over the planet at minimal cost.

bush: managed to overreact to a terrorist attack and play right into their hands, starting two wars the country could not afford and utterly demolishing the economy in the process. also, patriot act. by the time he left office, osama had won.

obama: is actually changing bush's aftermath from another great depression into a depression. considering how hostile congress is, that alone is a pretty big deal. coupled with actually killing osama thanks to the alteration in focus of the wars, i'd say he did a pretty damn good job considering the **** salad his predecessor left him.

This thread will be locked.

Eve had its revolution moment.

The closest thing to the situation that the OWS people are protesting that exists in Eve is the CSM and the precived over representation of goons. There is a thread about that, and most of the replies were anti-OP.

Eve is a different animal than the real world.

Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.  - William Pitt

This thread is pointless and so is OWS. How can you protest and not have a clear collective message. It defeats the purpose of it.

Ehm, dear US-dudes. You do realize you bore us to death with your US presidents anectdotes unless you start with George Washington so we get the whole historical dilemma? ;) This is the EVE forum. International...
Not "Shave-like-Hillar(y)ious" forum or something, k?
