With the Amarr/Minmatar slavery issue a keypoint for RP in EVE, it surprises me that no consideration has been made for releasing freed slaves. Once you have Slaves, you must either destroy the pod they are in or use the Trash option. Either option is not appropriate to Role Playing. If someone is willing to risk life, ship and security status to free slaves in the name of RP and game background, as set up by CCP, then they should gain Minmatar faction as well.
A solution is to give slaves a richt click feature to FREE which then turns them into EX-Slaves. EX-Slaves can then be turned in at Pator for faction, perhaps in lots of 10 or so.
On the reverse side, Amarr players, or those wishing Amarr faction can aquire Tourists and right click then to make them Enslaved. Enslaved units can be redeemed in Amarr in a similar manner giving Amarr faction. The Ex-Slave and Enslaved icons can be cleared from the system during downtime to prevent a mass of junk from collecting.
It is not only my view, but the view of many like myself that if you are to RP a race and role as depicted in CCP's own backgrounds, and to do it at a risk, some reward should be made, and a better conclusion then destruction of the units is needed.
Using these, or similar means will enhance the game greatly for those of us that role play.

Either free the slaves or we will come and get them.

Well said, many minmatar want this feature going live. Take a look at the minmatar chat logs and you'll see what I mean.

Some kind of slave-freeing functionality is definately needed. Best I've managed so far is to put them in the hold with some drink and a few holo-cubes... - Carp Riddell - CEO, Innsmouth Shipping - Proud Member of Curse Alliance

An exellent suggestion, all those rich tourists out there are just begging for a nice long shift at the ore face on amarr ------------------------------------------------- The distinction between Trade and Warfare is made only by those who have experienced neither. |

really nice suggestion indeed, I dont know about tourists as you never know what empire they are from, but all slaves are of minmatar origin, so that would be a great implementation.

Indeed it would be a great option if there was a free option for slaves. So Oracle and other Minmatar freedom fighters can actually RP their missions. Perhaps a special skill and/or item would be required to detox the Minmatar of the Vitoc, thus freeing them.
I think that it would be also good if they was a way of enslaving captured Minmatar. For example I attack a Minmatar transport and as part of the loot I get Minmatar survivors which I can choose (if I'm that way inclined) to enslave. Most likely to do this you would need a certain amount of Vitoc to make the slaves and possible certain skills to know the correct method to apply the Vitoc, the greater the skill the more slaves are created, and less are killed to overdoses etc
It would certainly add to the depth of the RP of EVE. I would love the challenge of invading Minmatar space to raid for slaves. As I'm sure that Oracle and etc would love hunting slavers down who are raiding for slaves.
Thats my 2 isk anyhow
