Here I gonna suggest an equivalent replacement for the old arenas, the burner proving grounds. To enter these, there is a new filament, the burner proving ground filament. You can obtain them by the same way as you get the normal proving filaments. However, the mechanic inside these sites is different from the regular proving grounds.

As I am not sure where to put, I put it into feature and idea discussion. I know, this is not the first thread about that(and there will be more coming for sure), but there are people who liked it, and so it should come back. There was nothing wrong with them, really not!

Added dates for the passive track giveaways The live passive tracks last 3 days, the scopeskin passive tracks last 5 days. I would also like to point out, that if CCP decides to do arena events again, that I may change the schedule or the activity accordingly. ---

Regarding this Saturday: While the focus on the summer event is primarly on bringing back the old arena, I have decided to also throw in some records from the new arenas as well, so that it is not only a request to bring back the old arena, but also to continue the new arenas, that have been chancelled for no reason and with no announcement. I also hope that I can give an update about the upcoming vote for the old arena in August/September too. This Saturday there will be 30B in the pot! ---
