For the past three months, civilian populations across several major planets in the Amarr Empire have been subject to anti-Theology Council propaganda beamed at their planets from hidden transmitters.

The Imperial Navy and Ministry of Internal Order have been unable to locate these transmitters, causing consternation at the highest level of Imperial politics.

Why would someone say it's impossible? I distinctly remember the show info for some mission structures that says the satellite dish type things you find in missions can be used to beam propaganda across a system. Communications Telescope I think they're called.

It is just spill over grumpyness from a discussion that happened in the OOC channel yesterday.

Because a mobile depot, containing the ingame items hydrogen batteries, miniature electronics and transmitters, is not one of those structures you mentioned, regardless of what it's called. It's just a mobile depot with a stupid name.

Not sure I'm reading this right. Are you trying to say what you're doing/trying to do is not actually happening?

[admin]We're not going to drag BS from the OOC channel ingame to hash out on Backstage by baiting a continuance of the dispute in a community resource thread.  If you want to discuss the legitimacy or illegitimacy of different RP gimmicks and how such legitimacy or lack thereof relates or does not relate to what is or is not represented by in-game items, do so appropriately, with a thread on the appropriate board.[/admin]

This is a forum on steroids tbh. The rate at which content worth reading is being generated could get you pregnant.
