Do you consider yourself a Merc, Ninja, Clone, super merc-ninja clone? Answers on a postcard please, WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?
I would like to ask the community. What do you want to be called?

Ha! It doesn't matter what you call us ... there will be someone who complains.
I wouldn't mind something based on the way we arrive on the field... either dropping in a dropsuit or by clone instantiation. I'd like the name to be somewhat immersive instead of external. Not sure that isn't a huge can of worms though.
Dustie or Duster works. Maybe we'll just start to call ourselves something if given a bit of time? |

Mercs of New Eden "Mercs" is good.
With Duster I was thinking of the rugged leather coat often worn by people that work very hard outdoors. Its cowboy armor. |

+1 for the use of the word instantiation.
How about instantiators?...

+ 1 for using the word "instantiation" correctly. Go you. You bring me hope that there may yet be intelligent life on these forums.
Anyway, Pod Pilots just call us Dust Bunnies, and it's a term I've grown rather fond of. Kind of like when people started calling Iriashmen "Micks," as an insult... and being the badasses that we are, we took that **** and made it our own. Now it's sort of a compliment. >=) |

A mercenary is a person who takes part in an armed conflict, who is not a national or a party to the conflict and is "motivated to take part in the hostilities essentially by the desire for private gain and, in fact, is promised, by or on behalf of a party to the conflict, material compensation substantially in excess of that promised or paid to combatants of similar ranks and functions in the armed forces of that Party".

I would like to ask the community. What do you want to be called? At the moment it looks like Dust Bunnies is the favored term. *edit changed topic from "What should I call you?" to "What should they call us?" it makes a bit more sense

Although we are mercs I like to think of myself as a foot soldier for freedom and justice (ie, the Gallente Federation). But it's true that no one has to pick a side. |

This is where my vote is right now... was thinking along the same lines when this thread showed back up.
What we "wear" defines us. The clones inside are simply disposable biomass. Funny how being immortal actually reduces us to slavery as the Eve universe only uses us to work and fight endless battles day after day. Never do we get a meal, have a date, or otherwise enjoy our immortality.
This endless work ethic goes well with the "suits" concept.
Hmm, this all gives me a great game concept, wish I could do something about it! |

I'm in favor of both Mercs and Dust bunnies. Dust Bunnies as the informal, Mercs as the formal.
But in case we can't ever come to a decision I guess we could all just say **** it, and go with Pookie. |
