Hello,
I was thinking about this and I can't see how it's avoidable.. A PLEX costs around 20 euros, 1 month subscription costs about 15 euros. If one were to say.. Create a few trial accounts and pay for subscription via the buddy system then theoretically you could make a 25% saving on PLEX + a nice throwaway alt for a month..? If somebody pushed it the limit with the 20 invites you can do a month theoretically they could have 20 Plexes for exactly Gé¼299 instead of Gé¼349.9 (12 + 6 + 2)..
This is absolutely disgusting and I hope this isn't possible? For the love of all that's good in the world how has CCP taken measures to catch these abusers?
Or is this totally OK and CCP just wants nice stats for shareholders? |

if you buy PLEX directly from CCP you are lazy or stupif. |

Yes, there are measures in place to catch abusers of the buddy program and those that take it to the extremes to "farm" items given out through the buddy program or stuff that is available to all accounts (such as the Quafe Zero a while ago) will be (and have been in the past) facing repercussions.

Luckily I think CCP aren't quite that stupid.
You would think wouldn't you. Sadly history does not support that theory. |

Yes but if someone had quite a lot of these which represented a significant investment and now CCP nukes the prices of them by letting people abuse this offer. I'm glad its not interbus / the other collectors ships though, got several bill ISK in those.
Anyway I feel a sudden need for several alts, also 15 of my friends wanna try eve, although I doubt they are gunna like it, will probably end up quitting after about 51 days. |
