My opinion is that Fenris should use a new and unique identifier for their employees. For example FCO – Fenris Creations Officer/Fenris Commanding Officer. Or maybe just FEN.
That’s just one suggestion. One could come up with a combination that would be unique and suitable for the new branding. Forcing players to change their names (or worse – changing their character names to generic ‘Caldari Citizen’ or the like) just because you decided to rebrand yourself is not very nice.
I don’t even understand why they need to rebrand themselves. Sometimes it’s necessary, yes. And sometimes it brings freshness to an old enterprise, absolutely. But there was nothing wrong with CCP. CCP was a pretty strong and identifyable brand (anybody who confused it with some party in China or russia, was in the minority). For most of their playerbase, this is just going to be awkward and confusing for a few months. If the new name takes, then that will be a temporary discomfort. If not, it’s just going to end up a failed rebrand (which can also happen).
Anyway, since they’re going down this road, I do hope it takes after a few months of getting used to it.
Yeah i suggest to CCP that they could use FNRS as i only saw 1 player and like 2 corps that would have been affected, which is a much easier pill to swallow
i don’t really have anything specific in mind. being forced to change the name of a character i’ve had for more than a decade, in a game where for the past 23 years the policy of no name changes has been strictly enforced, especially when it happens through no fault of my own should merit something though. considering it’s a video game with almost entirely digital assets, where all they have to do is move a few 1s and 0s around to achieve some kind of compensation, i don’t feel it’s asking too much. there are also two other people in my highsec corp who will have this same issue. one is a 2004 player.
You surely must be american that has no clue what ‘communism’ even meant but still sees it as a red flag because fox news told you so and you are simply not educated enough by the not existing crappy us education system to see through those lies. It’s ISLAND, it’s part of EUROPE the continent that INVENTED democracy believe it or not, that has 10000% MORE ‘freedom’ than the predatory capitalism in the usa ever will have. 'Your ‘land of the free’ is so unfree on so many fields it really hurts. This starts with employee rights and even such simple things like drinking in public(stupid open container law in the us) are an example for how much better europe is. I know it hurts, but it’s just the truth
You can’t drink alcohol in public spaces in Europe either. (That’s what you meant, even though you didn’t specify. Only alcoholics are bothered by that law, by the way).
