Personally I still have that free 2000 aurom on each of my accounts, and just blocked it out like it doesn't even exist. I'm curious too. This is a really easy way for us to see just what the market really is for this.
Could you please add to your long term plans the ability to trade and reverse redeem Aurum back to RL money?
This would motivate people to finally learn how economy works (beginning from the "what I mine myself is free") and to finally make EvE is REAL a truth.
There are other sci-fi games like Entropia that already have this feature, I'd love to have it in EvE too. Auditing | Collateral holding and insurance | Consulting | PLEX for Good Charity

the only rmt activity should be players buying plex from ccp, all else gtfo
Fear to put the wallet where the mouth is?
EvE is already half metagame, half 3rd party websites talking about what happens here. Just make EvE complete and allow those who want to be able to build their own RL riches. Auditing | Collateral holding and insurance | Consulting | PLEX for Good Charity

Handing out money to people in exchange of bytes is a tricky thing to do even if we didn't belonged to a species were chaining your fellows to a computer to farm e-money for you is deemed something ordinary.
Several other games do it since years, do you think CCP who invented the most realistic economy are unable to put said economy into practice?
Also, it's not CCP "handing" money, it's players who lose at markets vs those who win. Auditing | Collateral holding and insurance | Consulting | PLEX for Good Charity

For those in doubt, the clothes shown in the blog are those you can get in the Factional Warfare Loyalty Point store for LPs+ISK. As mentioned in the blog, we will also be introducing clothing as loot drops in the near future. So, people will be able to get some interesting clothing items without having to spend anything over and above their subscription. Those who want to, will be able to spend to buy some other items from the Nex store. It's all about choice which isn't something we did in the past but we are doing now. You can choose to be involved or not. Each to their own. Live and let live The addition of the FW clothing is definately a step in the right direction, but why is CCP so determined to water down the sandbox rather than adding more to it? Is it really just about money to the point where CCP would rather add magically appearing one off shinies rather than adding additional gameplay elements to EVE via in-game mechanics? If CCP is so hellbent on adding MT into EVE then at least make the clothing items BPO's and produced through the game mechanics where it shows you at least care about keeping the integrity of the sandbox. Like the FW ones, give clothing some meaning in EVE, and they should all be destructable.
It's easy. Make a BPO that requires PI materials + Aurum to produce stuff.
Microtransactions and EvE style in a nutshell. And you solve both the issue of many PI materials having no use and implementing an EvE mechanic with MTs.
Of course it'd be cool to also be able to deconstruct those dressings and retrieve the PI and aurum out of them and even to re-convert said Aurum into RL cash again. Auditing | Collateral holding and insurance | Consulting | PLEX for Good Charity

RAP ACTION HERO wrote:those other games have player designed stuff, ccp hopefully will never allow player designed stuff
That would be Second Life, that's just one of the ways. Others entirely design their stuff or subscontract it to specialized firms.
RAP ACTION HERO wrote: also wasn't there some theory can't remember exactly that rmt income should never exceed the minimum wage of rl jobs, and that minimum wage is even lower in certain countries like china
EvE got miners, those games get their own "bottom of the ladder" players. They will always end at the bottom. Does not mean the others can't do better.

No idea, I played Diablo 1 for few hours, finished it in 1 try, never launched a next version again. Auditing | Collateral holding and insurance | Consulting | PLEX for Good Charity
