For sh*ts n giggles

EVE is a pretty serious game and it would be nice to see some more light hearted things. Here's some random ideas:
  • I can rig a ship but not a still, when can I make my own in game alcohol and sell it rather than it be seeded. I mean, who has cornered the hooch market?
  • Luxury liners (Gallente?), they get mentioned, why can’t I fit one out and fly high paying patrons around?
  • Luxury yachts – wanna make one and sell them.....
  • Offshore gambling (outside the 200km water limits and into international waters) are big business, I want a casino ship to go with my brewery....
  • Oh, but the vices of alcohol and gambling? Better add a whore house – exotic dancers sorry or an Amarr Chapel ship for the penitent.
  • So that’s one odd ship for each race, expect for the Caldari smuggler, which has a small compartment that you can’t scan for drug smuggling, etcetera.
  • And I want a Ferrari now I’m a squillionaire
As for gold plated chromed colts with ivory handles guess we might get that with Aurum in Captains Quarters when they add personal items for Incarna/walking in stations expansions.

On a slightly more serious note – how would stealth bomber hunters work? Bit like u-boats and sub-hunters of WW2 I would have thought. A special sonar fitting to ping them out? Or a special probe? Or maybe a cool effect which leaves like a glittering snail trail (think Star Trek did this) that you track to a point which you can then try and uncloak.... would be thinking it would be a T2 Destroyer with 2 fitting options – sonar or snail trail.

Oh well, just some random less serious thoughts.
