I've always wondered what CCP actually *does* with the ISK they get from market taxes/broker fees/mission tax/medical clone cost/etc. I assume much of it goes to fund the stations that provide those services and towards things like newbie ships, but it seems like they make way more ISK than would be necessary to do those things. |

Ignoring the fact that you are a forum troll, with many of your threads locked for trolling, or instigating; (And for anyone who really might wonder)
It's just gone. Poof. Ccp doesn't do anything with it.

The isk is used to buy PLEX. The PLEX is used to fund Dev alt accounts.
What? Did you think CCP employees get to play for free?

My thoughts were that ISK generated from taxes and charges are used to pay out bounties for killing rats and such. You know, keep that ISK circulating.
EDIT: Of course, this only stands from an RP point of view, but there is no other use for it apart from to provide a more immersible universe. |

Black holes make Vagabond fits that go 45 km/s possible. Phrases like "you can't nerf / buff X EVE is a Sandbox" have the same amount of meaning as "If this is a sack of potatoes then you can not carrot." - Alara IonStorm |

I think its parshally funneled to the Sasha to fund incursions to give the appearance of CONCORD and defense fleets and the bulk of the money is used to fund evil plots hatched from the shadows that the CONCORD and Sasha and other evil pirate enterprises(goons...looking at u ) prepare a war of galactic domination starting from within the heart of goonland and working its way south and east in a pincer move to cut off the galactic core... then the the real noob blood bath begins and they conquer region after region.... soon everyone will be a miner under concords doomsday beams |
