    Lol, I don't think 'bollocks' can be considered a 'respect(full)' term.
    But yes, history itself is supposed to be dated. I thought that's exactly what the back story is meant to be: an explanation of how Arkadia was discovered and colonized, told through the adventures of characters.
    The fact that this process is still ongoing sure makes it interesting. Still, I understood this to the base (story) on which colonists build: not the history of the exploits of (select) avatars.

    And I haven't stated that I'm against any mention of avatar names in general: as you said, it's been done on other planets. But often at the starting, and predominantly in-game.
    Depending on how it's done, it certainly can have a positive effect; I've seen evidence of that.

    But a place where this likely would be less advantageous, would in my opinion, be in the official canon.
    Like I said, there are other ways of showing appreciation. That are perhaps less subjective.
    (BTW, the term 'sandbox' for EU seems rather diluted over time: since it doesn't appear to be presented as such anymore. But that's another topic altogether.)

    About the hornet's nest:
    Between being too careful in life, and not doing something that's very likely to cause discord, lies a world of difference.
    (eg. a teacher who refrains from naming his/her favorite/best pupil, is just being practical)

    But well, it wasn't my intention to have a debate on the front page.
    Just wanted to post another view: I'd rather speak my mind now, than sitting by idly, and grumble after the fact.
    (Plus the inability to log in the game causes me to write, while I should be playing.) ;)
    Basically: I like how this chapter is done, as is.

    Besides, in the end it's not our decision, not by a long shot.
    So to each his/her own: if not implemented, great. if implemented, great for the few involved.

    Respectfully,
    Yuki.

    Bottom-line is ... I'm glad that the Dev Team will give thought to direction in their storyline writing. The Arkadia Team has a great opportunity here, and I would love to see them make good use of it, because I think it would make the overall history of Arkadia much richer with more than fictional characters and NPC's. Just try it and see what happens.

    :)

    Damned silly Bot! Now there's another thing I have to fix! :soangry:

    I'm going to go give it a taste of the BanHammer and kick it around the office to pull it back into line! ;)
