For those of us who hate slavery can we have the option of, I don't know, maybe freeing the slaveswe come across in game?? Letting them die in space/selling them on/leaving them to gather dust in a hanger is just wrong. Hell, as in Ancient Rome players could pay an "admin fee" to the state to buy the poor misfortunate's freedom. Cue station sound effect cheer!
Apologies if this has been raised already... |

I've been wondering about this for a while, actually. It'd be kind-of nice for a little contextual menu option to, basically, turn "Slaves" items into "Freed Slaves" items  Or maybe turn the slaves in to some sort of agent and get "Freed Slaves" in return? |

There were these nice POS modules for converting Slaves to Freed Slaves, or Freed Slaves to Slaves. They were on Sisi at some point. Are they still coming in? |

I've been looking for this for a long time. There are many options that this could allow, such as educating the slaves to have them become ships crew (if and when this is actually presented), or selling them for standing at regional outposts (in Amarr space, we could sell the slaves to Republic Security Service stations for Minmatar faction standing, or sell the freed slaves to Amarr stations in Minmatar space).

This would be nice, but NPC corps would also like to participate. I think it should become a permanent option for slaves and freed slaves, without any module needed. I'd even pay to detox the vitoc poisoning, or the cost of the vitoc acclimation. |

Only supported if an option is added that allows one to reprocess the slaves into valuable biomass. |

Give us a blueprint that takes slaves as input and name it "Republic Citizen" and we put them on a production process and get Minmatar Citizen by that.
How hard can that be?
Thank you. |

Both idea have a ton of merit. RP players should be able to make a difference as well. mike |

Just trash them and rationalise it as removing their slave status. You're just getting them out of your hangar and releasing them into the general population. You don't need a new database item to do that. |

Rather than coding special UI items, an alternate way for CCP to implement freeing slaves would be to add LP store entries to Minmatar (and maybe Gallente) corporations that takes slaves, perhaps some cash (to pay for education, Insorum, etc) and returns something - maybe other "livestock" items, or a less tangible item like LPs.
Of course, Amarrian corporations should have something similar on their side for enslaving humanoids. It would just be more problematic as there are far more types of non-slave human cargo items than slaves. |

I like this idea. It builds on an existing mechanic so how difficult could it be to implement? As for the second idea the type of passenger offered for enslavement could be related to the LP item gained. |

Supported as long as we can also put slaves we have to work. 1 ISK / week per slave toiling for an account. |

Arrange a few BPO's
1 x Slaves + 1 x Racial Charter = Homeless.
Maybe different racial charters create different groups.
Homeless + Amarr Charter = Slaves
Slaves + Caldari Charter = Mercenry
etc. |

Although it doesn't seem to appear in the online item database, "Freed Slaves" is already an in-game item. |
