There should be a bundle of the Permaband Roadie SKINs for 1 PLEX more than the group, but comes with something special for the bundle. Call it the ‘Permaband Groupie’ Bundle or something. Just saying… ---

@Mortlake @Zeewolf_46137@NotTheSmartestCookie Based on the precedence of previous birthday gifts, I assume that it’s straight up gifts, they won’t be soul bound, and they won’t expire. > [@Arisha\_Moon](#): > > does is it mean, that the actuall trash logincampaign will be disabled? I doubt it. The 2 week login campaign for newbros has run concurrently with special login campaigns in the past. So, I’d imagine that the trash campaign will run concurrently with the birthday campaign. I mean, it’s either that, or no one will be able to collect the one reward that is worth anything (the SP) from the trash campaign. ---

17 years, man that’s a long time. 🤔 And I’ve been here for 12 of those years, unbelievable… Now back to the subject at hand: > ### Capsuleer Day Clash > > In addition, to commemorate the anniversary of the birth of Capsuleers in New Eden and earn goodwill with the independent pilots of the cluster, CONCORD, the Empires and Upwell are preparing a series of gifts for Capsuleers. However, a large-scale attack from the Triglavian Collective against their joint production and research facilities threatens to disrupt the celebration! CONCORD is requesting that Capsuleers seek out these besieged facilities in order to drive away the Triglavian forces and claim extra gifts. > > There will be Capsuleer Day Clash event sites available **from 7 May to 20 May** throughout New Eden, restricted to allow Battlecruisers only, with more advanced sites all over Lowsec, Nullsec and wormhole space. Rewards will include new SKINs, limited time cerebral accelerators, limited time standings boosters and special limited time 10 pilot Needlejack Filaments! Come on, enough with the Triglavian stuff. You guys do know there’s other Factions in Eve besides Trigs, right? Sooo, BattleCruisers only entering these sites. Must not have been enough ships destroyed in the last event. Obviously Newbie’s and Industrial type players will be excluded from this again. As for the rewards, the only ones I’d be interested in getting are the cerebral accelerators and standing boosters. Guess I’ll just get those from the Market… Anyway, here’s to Eve, may she reign for another 17 years as the evil mistress we all love and hate. ---

Make a pink dot to remind us all every 5 minutes we are playing Eve. Then make a magenta one with “Are you still playing? Are you AFK?”. [Next page](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/17-years-of-eve-a-huge-birthday-celebration/236910.md?page=2)
