I played Frontier Elite II to death, but I can't remember.
I want them back in the game. I'd love to send them to their godly overlords.
My Cult of One is the only truth.
Do we need Scientology in the game?

So long as the station doesn't play "Key to life, Key to life, oh-oh-oh, ohooo" on an endless loop like they did in the reception of Saint Hill, and it's not founded by a colossal end of the bell like the namesake then I can live with it.
Classic grey emeter for sale at a mere 2000 GPB as a rare would annoy me too.

It was Van Maanen's star. Needed a permit to enter (and it wasn't like these days where you "grind" to get your permit), pretty much everything was banned and regular trading was pretty painful. Selling luxuries on the black however...
This. He was a sci-fi author and naming stations after them is standard. I don't think there is any validation of any of his beliefs in naming a station after him.

Frankly, I think we need more stations named after conquistadors, and after H.P. Lovecraft characters.

There are several other differences. Research them if you're truly interested, and not simply trolling.
Since public hypersensitivity and "You Will Accept Me" Marches became fashionable.
Political Correctness is Social Cancer killing humanity.
Concepts like "Suck it up", "Deal with it", "Life is hard", "There are winners and there are losers", and of course "Get some thicker skin" are an anathema to the PC agenda.
You can also blame dirtbag schisters who found a way to make money from suing for things like "You hurt my feelings" for rapidity of the spiraling decline we are all being sucked into these days.
And you can thank crybaby groups who feel it is there responsibility to protect the world from everything they think might offend someone that we cannot mention https://eddb.io/station/40172 by name here either, because the name is also slang for male genitalia. It's a g Proper Name for a few million human beings.
It was also an electric typewriter years before anyone used it as a slang term for their willie.
Mormonism is in the game - LDS 883- Smith Reserve.
Its where you buy the Rare commodity Chameleon Cloth
(though I think the 'rares" you should get there should be something like "Seer Stones" or "Golden Tablets")
As far as I know Mormons dont have anything to do with Sci-Fi.
At least not the Sci part.

And with making no comment on whether Scientology, or any religion for that matter, is a cult or a hoax, or whatever. The bubble of 3303 would be a pretty dead and dreary place without its fanatics and zealots.
Oh, but they do... see they don't advertise it openly because they don't want laughed at. Research "Kolob" and you'll find out.
There is no reference to Scientology in this game.
The Ron Hubbard that I know runs a tea shop. I dont think he minds references to him in computer games.

Yeah, because Kolob is the proverbial straw that broke the "crazy" camels back.
It's assumed that Frontier is referring to L. Ron Hubbard. Google 'Ron Hubbard' and nothing but Leonard. Don't know enough of Scientology to say if its a terrible thing, for better or worse, Ron Hubbard is a notable figure, and is worthy of a dock..
Suppose its like Frontier naming a port Adolf Hitler City because of his animal rights activism... Not the first thing that comes to mind, but notable.
